Don't question this one, it is worth the .9 drive straight into their downtown. Philly Cheese Steak was phenomenal, not fatty, nice and tender and the au jus sauce complimented it perfectly. I will remember this place next time I drive through!“

Best burger around. All ingredients were fresh, even the mozzarella was the fresh one, not shredded. Was really surprised on how good everything was. Will definitely go back.“

“Husband and I went to breakfast today and the food was excellent! Will be going again when we are in town!“

“This is the only, local market chain, fried chicken joint that I've found to be consistent, and I walk away happy with the money I spent.

All the other big chain chicken places in the area have no consistency on orders, quality, or service. Your 2nd best bet is the deli inside the local supermarkets, but supporting local quality will always come first.

Highly recommend, and I hope the resurgence they've gone through continues. Really appreciate the friendly staff, and even fair wait times during lunch/dinner rush. High volume moving behind the counter when you order inside is always a good sign your chickens coming out hot and fresh. Kids love the tenders they have, the fried chicken itself is good. The sides are pretty standard, haven't found any I didn't like. I like some of their fish options as well.

Interior hasn't been updated in my near 30 years alive in the area, but its part of the charm. I prefer to drive the 3 minutes into town to sit at one of the peaceful parks by the river with the kids.

Only thing that would make this place 5 stars is some actual biscuits instead of rolls, and maybe a bit more seasoning in the batter. Building and lot could use an update as well, but I hope those are all things in the works.“

“Food and service was both great. Very clean establishment. Indoor and outdoor seating. Beautiful scenery, located on the lake also accessible by boat.“

“The staff is so amazing!!! The food and drinks 🍸 were delicious 😋. Couldn't have asked for a better experience!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
