When we walked in, we stood directly at the counter and waited for someone to acknowledge us or give us instructions on where to sit. We were met with absolute silence. Then, a waitress muttered "find a seat, just find anywhere" without even looking at me or addressing me directly. We went and sat down, but no one ever brought us menus or came over to help us. We just sat there waiting to be acknowledged. Right after us, a white family walked in. They were immediately greeted warmly, told exactly where to sit, and provided with menus right away. It seemed very clear that you are only treated with respect and served at this establishment if you are white. Because the staff completely ignored us and refused to give us basic service, we ultimately walked out. Driving through from another state, it is incredibly disappointing to face this kind of treatment. Everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and equal hospitality. We will never be back and highly recommend travelers find somewhere else to eat.

The staff was very friendly and helpful, food was served perfectly and the dining area had plenty of seating. You order at the counter, pour your own coffee from the coffee station and seat yourself.

A lovely gentleman walked around refilling coffee at the perfect time as well.

Had to go back up an pay again. 2 waitresses had quite a nice long chat while I was waiting almost 10 minutes later food was cold but had hash browns, finally arrived.

The Italian beef, the gyro, and the chicken tenders were fantastic. The crinkle cut fries were also delish. The kids nuggets were less than great. However the kids meals come with "treasure" aka temporary tattoos, a paper hat to color, and a gummy candy. The kids meals also come in cute pirate themed boxes. The drinks are in a refrigerator by the register- there aren't fountain drinks. They have cans of soda and glass bottles of Fitz's. The place is very tiny. 5 booths inside and 2 tables outside. The air conditioning is also not up to par. Food is great and would come here again!
