Absolutely fantastic food. I definitely recommend getting the fried cheese! Our waiter was also wonderful, gave us plenty of sauces and great recommendations. We will definitely be back! My friend got the fried chicken and said it was some of the best food he’s had in STL

We stopped on a road trip through St. Louis. What a wonderland place to eat. First the prices are reasonable for the amount of food you get. Like lots of food for on the cheaper end of eating out. The drinks are strong and delicious. The service great, friendly attentive people working there. The food was very tasty and cooked perfectly, it seems very fresh! Can’t wait to stop through St. Louis again so we can stop.
