Went to breakfast this past Sunday with my in-laws and it was wonderful! Food was great and the…read moreservice was even better. Tina was a great server. This place isnt what you would normally find in a gas station at a truck stop. Even my father in law who is a Ihop and waffle house fan, said it was better than both! Great little restaurant along I49. And the prices were surprisingly low.

I changed my review from five stars to one star because of the guy who works there…read more I walked in and grabbed a menu that was sitting on a table right next to the cash register. I didn't go behind the register--I simply reached over and picked up a menu from the table. He immediately got smart with me and asked if I was serving myself. When I told him I wasn't going to give my business to someone with that kind of attitude, he responded by calling me "Karen." I will never eat here again, even though the food is really good. A server should not act like this. He's on a power trip and needs to learn how to treat customers with respect.

Great little hole in the wall join with a great menu selection and drinks galore…read more We had a gift certificate and stopped in on a Monday night where fried chicken was the special. The hubs had fried chicken and asked for thighs only and they were kind of small but perfectly crispy. His serving of mashed potatoes was smaller than mine (but I didn't mind sharing). I went for the open faxed tenderloin sandwich and mashed potatoes and it was really good (and big enough for leftovers!) Service was a bit slow for the place being dead but we wee not in a hurry so no biggie. Our bill with 2 dinners and a beer was less than $25 (the value of your GC) so it's very reasonably priced. I heard recently sometimes they have bull riding. I'd love to come back on one of those nights!

We were seated & ordered the Breakfast sampler & the 3 Egg Ham & Cheese Omelette. Our meals were served relatively quickly & everything was ok but nothing stood out whatsoever. The service was acceptable & the prices seemed fair but the decor needed some help. Next time passing through Clinton we may stop back in again but we may not.

Exactly what we were looking for on our way home from Kansas City, a spot for a hearty homemade…read morebreakfast. I had the chicken fried steak with homemade sausage gravy (VERY good!), with one egg scrambled with cheddar cheese, hash browns, and marbled rye toast. Husband had sausage patties with eggs over medium (cooked just his liking) with hash browns and sourdough toast. Condiments were on the table so we didn't have to ask. Coffee was fresh, hot, and delicious. They even had V8 for my husband which topped the experience off perfectly. We will be stopping by again!

They have corrected the issue with the photo but unfortunately due to the nature of how they have treated me I cannot recommend this place and warn anyone else who might leave a review. Very disappointed. Not the first time we have eaten here but probably the last. I ordered their load fries based on the picture from their website. What I got didn't even look like the picture or even have the same ingredients, (no chives and the bacon wasn't even real cooked bacon) the own stated that the picture was just a picture and not of their actual product and basically blew off my complaint.
