Excellent food and friendly staff. Breakfast burrito is the best around, way better than John's Place. Burgers are awesome and the onion rings are excellent!! Highly recommend. Give it a try.

Nice and clean restaurant. I usually come in for the green chicken salad for lunch. You get a hefty chicken portion. Always hits the spot. I'm new to working in an office environment. I needed to find something good, fresh, and filling for lunchtime. This is my go-to spot when I don't pack a lunch.

Tasty burgers nice and thick, good fries and good location. I go often or have it delivered. Basic restaurant inside but I’ve always enjoyed their food

This has become a favorite breakfast place of mine since moving to the area from Indiana 3 months ago. This is my usual, steak and eggs with hash browns, toast, and coffee. The steak is a thin slice of Ribeye, very tender and seasoned nicely. The hash browns are plentiful, crispy on the outside, soft and smooth on the inside. The best I've ever had! I get my three eggs over easy. They have a better than usual coffee. The only complaint I could offer is that the toast comes out unbuttered and usually won't melt the butter pats that come with it. But, butter it anyway and lay out over the hot hash browns and it will melt easily! The staff is very courteous and friendly. I eat here 3 or 4 times a week. The steak & eggs breakfast will run you 18.08 with coffee. Coffee is supposedly free between 7am and 11am, but I rarely make it that early.

I’ve passed this place many times and finally decided to stop in. I was not disappointed. Dining area was clean and spacious. I’m particular about my pastrami sandwiches and this one was awesome. The roll was toasted so didn’t get soggy. The meat was moist and thick. Overall, delicious. I can’t wait to try other items on their menu.
