We were greeted and seated immediately and I ordered half-cut Iced Tea and Shari got her Sweet Tea. She ordered Fried Green Tomatoes w Ranch Dipping Sauce for the table. I ordered Meatballs w Extra sauce and it came with a slice of Garlic Bread on the side. Shari ordered the Stuffed Pasta Entree Special and she was extremely pleased! The food tasted as awesome as it looked! Only thing better would have been some fresh Basil! I definitely recommend and would go back again when in the area! I loved the Sinatra music playing in background and our server Abby was amazing! Ask for Abby!

Thank goodness we looked at the menu ahead of time online because there was little to no interaction at the counter. We ordered a large California Chicken and a large Classic Deluxe Pizza. Which is really comparable to everyone else's Mediums or larger small sized pizzas. We ended up throwing away majority of the pizzas because the crust was too hard. (Overcooked cracker-like crust) Our toddler couldn't break it down to eat and actually threw it at the ground for us to realize half of the pizza was inedible from the sound it made. Also to note. My husband asked for extra ranch with our order. He was told they were inside the pizza boxes. When he went to check the lady repeated herself in a tone, "I said they were inside." Needless to say, we didn't check until we got home and guess what? No ranch dipping inside the boxes. For the price we paid and the quality of food/ingredients received, we'd rather travel to another establishment for a better experience and edible food. Huge let down.

One and done! 1st and my last time. Everything from the lack greeting when walking into the door to…read moreplace order, to the $40 for two pizzas. Crust was hard as a rock that no one enjoyed. I am new to the area and had high hopes. Was more expensive than Pizza Hut and the food quality was worse than Little Caesars. Convenience is the only thing this location has going for it. We will not return.

Coleslaw...homemade the tartar sauce...homemade with fries and fish too "hot" to eat which is the way I like it. Staff and ownership is always a pleasure to be with.

They said the only way we could do that was to pay $7 extra per person, thats ridiculous. Do NOT get the "steak and gravy".... literally nothing steak about it. It was disgusting it was like a mushy tasteless meatloaf style creation. We got the carrot soufflés which is seasonal and that was delicious. The ground itself is beautiful. We were told to walk around the ground and that we could walk in the buildings but they were all closed up. Also.. they do NOT let you take leftovers home.. such a Waste.

I loved my biscuits and gravy. The gravy was a darker color but the sausage was so flavorful and it was light in pepper which I like because I don't like pepper. The biscuit was a really great size and fluffy. The bacon is not thick cut but still Crispy and good, eggs were cooked nicely. Now on to the cheddar rounds..... I try these all over but these are the absolute closest you will get to the Pals version. They were lacking the season salt which would have made them taste like Pals. Over all I was very happy and will definitely be back!!! Also the prices were good (pic of menu (included)
