Place was packed still got my wonderful food in a timely manner! The staff was super friendly the views are the best around!
Great adventure for your entire family!!
Rustic decor and a beautiful hilltop view of the Ohio river. We were expecting basic cafeteria style food, but there was a full buffet and menu including home made desserts. We enjoyed the taxidermy around the restaurant.
