The salad bar is awesome. All soups are homemade, and item that I have received off the menu were cooked perfectly.

I want to start off by saying this has been my go to restaurant for years. It has the BEST salad bar and delicious mac n cheese!!! My last visit was less than desirable. I got my favorite chicken parm. When I cut into it, it was alittle hard to cut. I didn’t think nothing of it. But when I started to chew, I knew something was wrong. It was RAW. Not pink, not slightly under cooked, I mean RAW. I showed my waitress and she couldn’t believe it. She apologized and asked if I wanted a new one. Of course!!! I didn’t go out to eat, not to eat. So it took about 10-15mins to come back out. In the mean time, my son just sat there looking at his food. He didn’t want to eat in front of me. It’s not right his food got cold waiting for mine. He eventually started eating his food, but then he had to sit and wait til I was done eating. Very horrible experience. The one thing that upset me the most was NO MANAGER came out to talk to me. The waitress comes over to me n says she removed my meal from the bill. I take the bill to go pay and the young girl asks how are meal was. I tell her I ate raw chicken!!! She smirks with a little smile n says “was that you”. Yea, it was mine. As I walk to my car, I start throwing up in the parking lot. I get home and at 11pm my stomach starts to hurt and I go to the bathroom. I have been in the bathroom now 10-12x since Friday night with the worst diarrhea I have ever had. This was a horrible experience. I’m sorry, but diarrhea for 2 days isn’t worth $16 credit I got
Ps, I understand you can’t help people smoking, but when the server smells like an ash tray, that’s a problem

Even busy we waited on nothing. Our server Lisa made sure our 1st time there was niceand chatted w me. Our ribs were so tender and I added on chicken breast The soup/salad/pasta bar is a refreshing part of this diner. Well worth the price for what you get. All fresh. Were in area for a show but definitely will be back!
