"Great good and great service for a really god price for the serving sizes (they are, huge). Still haven't, quite figured out the 2 carrots, pickle, celery stick, and cup of ham salad that comes out with the menu... But you do also get a loaf of homemade Bread with 2 types of butter as well! Salad bar is on the smaller side but fresh and well stocked. Super fluffy baked potato and fresh and hot prime rib the size of my face plus a healthy portion with the cheese balls. This is definitely a place I'm going to highly recommend to visiting family!"

"I hadn't been there for awhile due to personal reasons but when I was able to go again, they had changed their menu and I couldn't order my favorite dish. I ordered hot wings instead and they were the worst ive ever had. They were dry, tough, and had barely any sauce. So little sauce, in fact, that they weren't even hot. It was a very disappointing experience."

"Great place to stop in. Can be a bit hectic on their busy days or hours, but anyplace can be. Well stocked full service bar. Food was good, nothing off the charts but worth the time to go and try something new. Parking is a challenge. Be sure to park only in designated areas, neighboring businesses will have you towed if you’re in their areas. Maybe drive up, drop everyone off and the driver can find a spot and walk back."

"Best prime rib within 80 miles. A bit pricey but worth it. Get the onion rings! Thin sliced, delicious and just the right amount of fryer oil. They have the only chicken fried steak that I have been able to cut with a fork. Tender and delicious. Save room for pie!"

"Most staff members are great and easy to work with. Menus are always clear and up to date and not very often are out of things. Disappointment they don't have breakfast anymore, they always have diffrent/new staff members. Bathrooms are clean and tables are cleaned off quickly. Thr owner likes to go to each table once in a while and thank people for coming in, laughs with customers and has a friendly attitude hes never done my table because he hates my husband but I'm sure if I married someone else he probably would do the same for me. Most staff members see us often and joke around with us. Over all our waitress is awesome."
