Great eats, with a great staff, and a really nice atmosphere. Also featuring different daily specials. All at pretty affordable prices. Outdoor seating available during the warm months! I believe smoking is permitted in the outdoor seating area. Guests should take that into consideration; if they themselves are nonsmokers.

Great spot and lucky me its a block away from our new house. Great burgers, really good service, and atmosphere is a family friendly bar. We'll definitely be back.

Great flat iron steak, medium just like I asked, hash browns were nice and crispy. Husband says chicken wings were among best he ever had. Friendly, fast service

Attended Wrestling Hall of Fame ceremony with over 300 people in attendance. Excellent facility, and cold pads of butter melted easily in mashed potatoes. That's hard to do with a banquet of 300. Steak was hot as well for everyone at our table. The service was very quick and efficient. As we left, the cook was outside and asked how the meal was. That's small town service at its best, in my opinion.

I have eaten here several times and only one time did the cook overdo the steak. It was good enough even cooked past what I like that I ate it anyway. The service overall is really decent, one waitress in particular has made it in the top three waitresses I have ever met out of thousands of waitresses throughout the country. Thank you for a great place to stop on Fridays.

Always a good experience! Friendly staff. Welcoming atmosphere. Great food and prices. Indoor/outdoor seating, bar, lounge, and banquet/reception room. Plus, more pull tab options than any place in a 5 county radius! Check it out!
