Came here on a Sunday afternoon.
From the hostess to the waitress, everyone was friendly. We ordered steak and potato, and both were absolutely delicious. The steak was cooked to our liking, and the baked potato was big and good. What caught our eye was the old Mason Jars used for beverages, large and classic. It was definitely an enjoyable experience.

Had never heard of it, we are from out of state looking for something to eat. So thankful we found this place. Food was excellent I wish we had these in ohio. I guess we will just have to settle for the better football team.
September 2024
Great country fried chicken. Their bbq pulled pork sandwiches are pretty good too. We went back and my wife got the Texas corral chicken and it was delicious!!!! I posted a picture of it but it was half gone by that time. My country fried chicken was really good again. I would recommend both.
