This place has been here for years! I have been a few times. the food is good, the workers there are so kind and genuine. I love the retro feel this place gives you. The fried pickles here are a must! overall Its nothing super special but for how long it has been around it is!

This is some of the best southern food I've ever had. The chicken tips were tender and flavorful, which is hard to find. My husband got the BBQ pork, and that was amazing. Didn't even need sauce! And the sides were so so so good. Everything we got was perfect. It came out quickly, and the staff was super nice. Definitely will be returning.

It was alright. The tuna sandwich was a hit and the kids liked their corn dog and hamburger. The French dip, Shrimp Po-boy, and sides were disappointing.

Based on this meal I would not return, but this was not the first visit and hopeful it was a one off bad night. We have had great meals here.

David our server was personable, helpful, and professional. There is a fabulous outside seating area with great local vibes.
