We had the brussels and squash salad and the prime rib French dip sandwich. The prime rib was excellent. Bread was soft and chewy and the meat was well seasoned.

Our server was awesome and the ambiance here is very nice - albeit a little bit dim - I would definitely come back! It was a bit pricey, but not unreasonable given the quality of the food and the location.

You are able to order directly from tablets that go through the food options with descriptions and pictures.

They also have a farm store next to their kitchen, where you can buy fresh peaches, sweet corn, spinach, homemade ice cream, homemade lemonade and farm fresh milk, and plenty of hand-baked goodies and sweets! The prices are fair and reasonable. I spent less than $30 for a quick meal and peaches to take home! Will be visiting again!

When you walk in there is a large photo of a Mafia guy--definitely sticks with the theme of this place. There is a small dining room with a huge photo of their food truck, where it all started in Chicago. There is also a cute neon "gangster." We ordered an American Burger, a Shroom Burger, and a Big Mack salad (chopped lettuce dressed with thousand Island, topped with two hamburger patties, cheese, pickle, and sesame seeds). We really liked the burgers and salad a lot. The buns are so good. We got fries, and they were nothing to write home about. Drinks are sold in the can, and there is a big variety to choose from. The menu here is quite large and there is plenty to choose from, no matter what you're in the mood for. FYI--they win 2025 Best of The Valley!

Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys…read more That's what was playing on the old jukebox as we made ourselves comfortable in what is a classic, back-in-the-70s, non-pretentious, neighborhood dive bar. The place is right out of a movie (maybe "Roadhouse" or "Urban Cowboy minus the mechanical bull). It's part biker bar, part honky Tonk, pub, and cocktail bar. We came for the burgers and were not disappointed. They were absolutely solid and worth it in every way. The nice, fresh beef patty was grilled to perfection and set in a soft bun with all the usual trimmings. I'd recommend you add thousand island for an extra touch of goodness. The resulting burger was juicy and meaty and drippy and excellent. It was not a throwaway "bar-food" item. The menu has a lot of great things in it, including sandwiches and all manner of comfort food and bar staples. A big surprise were the onion rings and ranch dressing. They were some of the best I'd had in a while. I found them better than the fries which were fairly standard. Others have complained about the service, but ours was really good at lunchtime on a weekday. Our server was also the bartender, and she was attentive and nice, albeit busy with all the workers that frequent this joint. It's filled with a mix of blue-collar, cops, office people, truckers, bikers, and just plain folks. And they play some great songs on the jukebox. Definitely worth it. And try one of the burger variations on the menu (with bacon or mushrooms, avocado, etc).

I had the veggie egg white omelette with the home fried potatoes & all was delish with mine as well, so much food that I ended up eating half of my omelette! We've been to another location & there was definitely a noticeable difference in a positive way. The cook definitely took pride in what he was sending out because it was obvious in the plating of the food. Our server was very attentive in taking care of us even though it was getting ready to be a shift change!

We arrived at 7:50am, hoping for a quick breakfast before a doctors appointment at 9:10am around the corner. It took the waitress forever to come to our table because she was the only one up front. Totally reasonable. By 8:20am there was over 18 guests and still just her trying to seat people, give them beverages, make espresso, input orders, and basically manage everything. Again. Totally reasonable why things were taking longer. She was hauling a** and working hard. So imagine my utter dismay when I saw a man, probably the manager or owner just standing there like a jacka** not helping her but making polite greetings and conversation to the people at the bar. Utterly unacceptable to watch your employee or someone struggle with that many tasks and not do a darn thing about it. Looking so proud and like everything is just dandy as you lean against the doorframe doing absolutely nothing. Our waitress gets a five star rating but this one star reflects the behavior of whoever that owner/manager is letting staff drown around him. Shame on you.

Even though I placed my order before several people, six others were able to order at the counter and received their food before I did. When I went to the front to ask about my order, they had trouble finding it. The employee told me he'd check on it, but forgot--and when I finally got my food, it was completely cold. The fries tasted like they had been sitting out for 20+ minutes. I asked to speak with the manager, Frank, who told me he couldn't issue a refund without a receipt. I even showed him the $15.04 charge on my bank app, but he still refused and only offered a voucher. That makes no sense--if they batch their reports nightly, they should be able to look up the transaction and refund it properly. After going back and forth for a few minutes, I decided to leave. This experience is unacceptable. The way they handle customers and basic service issues is completely disappointing. I tried giving them a second chance, and they completely fumbled again. I recommend avoiding this location.
