Customer Reviews

I really like this place. The service and food was good. They don't play their music too loud. The sanitation rating is 95.5 (A). Their buffalo wings have a bbq twang to them, very good. And the ranch is excellent.

My first visit to this location. I had a country breakfast, complete w/country ham. Had to feed the craving. It was delicious. But, next time I'll order toast or waffle, instead of a biscuit with my meal. It was my waitress's first day there, but not her first day serving folks. So grateful for folks like her.

Great prices and portions on down home, comfort food that is seasoned. This is like my fourth time visiting and I haven't been disappointed yet. The place is always busy with minimal wait for a table.

The waitresses and hostess were so, so sweet. I was with my aunt and her grandchildren, and her 2-yr-old great-grandson was flirting with the staff. Those ladies were so sweet with him and doted on him. It was great! And the food was delicious. The chicken salad was really good, and our little one liked the chicken strips and fries.

Atmosphere of after church eatery, wait time for a party of five, ten minutes. Ordered our food, started a conversation, and food was being brought to the table. Fast, friendly, delicious food! Steak and eggs, French toast, eggs bacon, pancakes and bacon, darn brain fart cannot remember what my other two ordered! Our family of five (three adults, two teens) cost us under $65, including tax and tip, reasonable.
