If you're looking for good home style food, great service, and amazing coffee, then this is a must! Best breakfast in town by far. Everything on the menu is made to order. I had the sloppy burrito with bacon and sausage, smothered in green sauce. Fantastic! I would highly recommend you try this place.

They never have anything on the menu in stock. We have gone several times this past year and each time they were out of important items. They use to be great.

Waitress was very nice to us, patient, and constantly checked up on our table. Ordered the beef burrito smothered in green salsa. Came out fresh, hot, and delicious! Will definitely try to come back again to try out their burgers next time. They have legendary 2lb burgers!! Finish the bad boy and get a Tshirt and your picture on their wall of fame!

It's a small, truck stop diner. Prices are good, food is good and plentiful. Staff is pleasant. My hubby loves the BLT!

Great service but the portion sizes don't fit the price $7 for 2 chicken tenders and a handful of fries I thought there'd be at least three chicken tenders but that's my fault for not asking

The food was good the wait staff was good the professionalism in the kitchen was another story while sitting at the farthest table from the kitchen I was able to hear the f word 2 times along with the rest of the statements, and the statement "we gonna scrap " clear as a bell. The manager needs to get a better handle on the situation. We will just say in closing it is a good thing I am not the gm I would have ruined 2 peoples day but it would have improved the restaurant for the patrons.

We’ve eaten here tons of times. Great parking for our truck. We retired and came to visit family. Stoped in to eat. Stood 15 minutes as the waitress walked by several times and didn’t say one word. Jean came by and address us. Got sat down ordered sweet tea, shocked it wasn’t, but doable. In the mean time, 4 people walked out because of no service. Jean was very busy while the other lady was just kind of him hum. Jean is very sweet and smiled and handle it well. Food was good. Service wasn’t. Shame. This is our favorite spot to eat.
