This type of place is in my list of favorites not just for the great food but also the awesome service we receive every time we are there... I love the family-like/friends treatment we get and we are always full and happy when we leave... Thank you for being a Carbondale staple!!! Love you guys!
This place had great reviews so we decided to give it a try while in town visiting family. One of the reasons we chose it was for the burgers and they were out of burgers when we went to order. This can happen but it does lend to our disappointment. The catfish was not very good. It sure didn't seem like fresh made. It was flat, thin, and dark; just weird. The grilled chicken sandwich had great flavor but was very tough. The Italian beef was overly salty and just not tasty....
Disappointed.The biscuits required quite a bit of effort to cut with a fork and a bit chewy. Hash browns had an old oily taste to them and I couldn’t finish them.Waitress forgot the second part of my order and I could see it sitting where the cook placed it. I waited and waited and finally the cook saw it sitting there and brought it to me.Note: it wasn’t crowded…only about 4-5 people.I wouldn’t go back.
