“My husband and I had a looooong day moving. Our server Aaliyah was freaking awesome getting us our drinks and we had quite a few refills but she was on top of everything. Really cool person and we're definitely going back! Thanks girl!“

“I visited Ziggy’s for breakfast over the weekend. Service, food, and atmosphere were great. I would have rated 5 stars, however, the coffee was terrible. Very weak and tasted like water. We asked our server if she could make more but she said it would just come out the same. Please work on making a good pot of coffee to offer your guests. I don’t think we are alone in wanting to enjoy a great cup of coffee with our breakfast. We will definitely visit again. Thank you!“

I brought the chop chopchz Philly home to my husband and he ate it COLD and still thought it was good!!!! The atmosphere was inviting, restaurant was clean, waitress was very friendly and attentive.

Will be back very soon. :)“

“Came here for st Patty's day the food was delicious and the lucky leporachans were fantastic I will have to come back for my birthday in August“

“After a long day on the interstate, we walked across the parking lot of our hotel to eat at the Charleston, WV location recently. I didn't have high expectations, because some of the reviews weren't the greatest. My dinner was outstanding, and I want everyone to know that! My pork steak was tender, juicy, and flavorful. The green beans and house chips were nicely seasoned and delicious. Ordered apple nachos for dessert, quite good, but next time (and there will be a next time) I will ask them to substitute the pita chips with an extra scoop of vanilla ice cream...“

“Ate here on a whim on our way back from Columbus. We decided let’s choose a local restaurant instead of a big chain. Glad we did because the oh boy burger was awesome! That sauce is amazing!“

“Yummy! Me and my hubby stopped in after our appointments today. Had a delicious breakfast. I got corned beef hash, sunny side up egg and he got chopped steak and eggs and we split some pancakes 🥞. Everything was cooked to perfection, flavorful and great price. Waitress was a sweetheart too! This is the type of place we both grew up eating at with our grandparents. Hope to bring our kids with us in the future one day. Happy customers!“

“Been here for brunch, which was really good, but their burgers are out of this world. Apps and sides are really good too. Only knock is it's a bar with really good food not a really good restaurant with a bar. But that's me being picky and sober for 10 years.“

“My husband and I arrived just before closing on a Sunday night. The staff was incredibly kind---even welcomed us with a smile.
Our server was Melissa. She was attentive and and treated us as if it was the beginning of her shift. I am now re-evaluating how I approach my employment. I finished my meal inspired to do a better job where I work---and most of all, to be more kind.
Thank you to all of those working on a Sunday night February 23, 2025.“
