The food here is excellent. The atmosphere is homey, and the staff treats you like a friend. What more could I ask for. The dinners here will fill you UP. You’ll be stuffed like a panda bear, but you’ll be happy. Great place!

Co-worker and I was in town working and decided to stop here for lunch today. We didn't know anything about the place since we come from out of state. Erika our waitress was absolutely amazing and made us feel at home. She recommended the ribs which were very good. The inside of the restaurant is cozy and super clean. 5 stars across the board.

We have been here a couple of different times and even had takeout. It has been great everytime. Today was the quietest they have been when we were here and our service was awesome! My niece and nephew's all thought our waitress, Erika, was the best waitress they have ever had!! Food was great, service great and specials were delicious. Tried pizza roll up and the kids loved it as their appetizer.

Enjoyed a turkey bacon club. Full of meat and very good. Also bread sticks and queso was delicious as well. I was there on a Friday night after a football game. Service was a little slow but very friendly. Noise level was kind of loud in the place but can be expected since it was Friday night after football.
