I brought the drinks back to our table and a little while later they brought out our food. I will definitely go back when I'm back in Elkhart. Great food great service and great staff.”

Conversations are very easy to carry on. A very special mention I must make is that Angie is the best of the best! Dianna is second on this list. They can give as good as they take when it comes to teasing them. Ten Thumbs Up for both of them! I also like that one of the televisions carries PAWS tv. For us animal lovers this is yet another great attraction.”

With notes on each table apologizing for staff issues and a delay being served, our food was ordered within 10 minutes and received within 20 minutes (table of 4). 30 minutes total for our food was exceptional.

As for the food, my wife and I both really like the pizza and my kids like the spaghetti with the huge meatballs. The restaurant is clean and the parking is more than ample.”

I spilled my drink just inside my doorway and she stayed to help me clean it up. I’m a paraplegic so cleaning liquids on the floor can be a little tough for me. She even drove back and got me another drink after we cleaned up the one I spilled. I didn’t get her name but she definitely went above and beyond when she didn’t have to do any of it. I appreciate her help and kindness. She’s definitely a keeper.”
