    Service was good! The food was good. Overall not a bad stop for a quick average bite to eat.

    Stopped on our way to tour Indiana Bloomington campus. First, service was impeccable!! Seriously, haven't had so much nice friendly service post-Covid era. Wish I had gotten our carhops name...she saw us drive up, walked over, chatted with us, made suggestions on what's good (when we asked-word to the wise, skip the Cole slaw and iced tea-iykyk) plus, why wouldn't you order the root beer anyways? It's what they're named after, after all....But I digress.. Food was what you'd expect. Good enough to fill us up for a late morning snack or for a quick lunch. Root beer was super yummy! We'd come back if we lived around the area. Prices were reasonable and again, service was awesome!!

    Well me and the wife experienced our first real coney which was awesome but mom says it is just as good as it was 60 years ago when she was a kid

    Coney and added mustard and onions.

We started with the potato cakes for our appetizer, the best I've ever had. I had the grouper and my wife had the stuffed salmon, both were seasoned and cooked perfectly! The restaurant had a great vibe with the music and decor, we will definitely be back.

I would've given a five star review but the service was very slow and 2 stars at best. It could have been more prompt and efficient. We waited for seven minutes before our first acknowledgement by our waiter/ server. It was just my girlfriend and myself. Once the waiter finally came to the table and took our order a lot time had lapse. Never once did come to ask how the food was once our main entrée was delivered. He asked how everything was when he presented the check. During the wait for him to return to the table to take our dessert order, there was a bus boy at the nearby table clearing another table. I asked him to take a plate that was left on our table and he said that the servers job I don't do that. I told him no you need to take it now and he gave me a rather rude look and stare. The intervals from which the waiter came back to the table was very long. It would've helped if the chairs had been padded but they were hard with like school room chairs. The dining room was decorated very nice and the decor and artwork is very tasteful. Music was a little loud. The food was exceptionally good from the appetizer to the main course to our dessert. It was exceptional. That is five stars ONLY - The service really was a lot to be desired for a good tip and review.

They have a large menu and everything I've ever had here is delicious. They serve breakfast all day and that's always nice considering breakfast is one of my favorite meals of the day. They have a nice sized parking lot. It is a little difficult getting in and out of the entrances with a wheelchair and if they ever remodel that's the first place I would start. The inside has a cozy atmosphere and has several different size tables as well as several booths to sit in. They offer several different specials thruout the day. On my visit today it was pretty packed but it didn't take long at all for our server to bring menus out and get drink orders. Once we decided what we were going to have it didn't take more than 10 minutes to have our food in front of us. Everything was fresh, hot and tasty. At my table we had a BLT, a half order of biscuits and gravy and I had one of the lunch special, a philly cheese steak sandwich and seasoned fries. My fries were crispy and delicious. The sandwich was loaded with meat and had a nice amount of peppers and onions as well as some gooey melted cheese and was on toasted/grilled bread. It was amazing and very filing. I couldn't eat it all so I'll have a nice snack for later today. Overall this place is a really nice spot to get a good meal. The servings are large. I overheard someone at a table next to me telling their server that they only ordered 2 eggs but got 3 on their plate. She told them they always do that, send out one more than what you order. Not too many places out there doing that so that's pretty cool. The reason for taking a star off is really just because of the difficulty I had getting in with my daughters wheelchair. Otherwise it would get a full 5 stars!

The tenderloin was not that great honestly. It tasted like a mix between fried fish and tenderloin. It was dry also. I think they need to change their grease. I won't make this mistake again. Sad because I've eaten here before and it was good. Don't know if they've changed their cooking ingredients to save money or what, but definitely a big bomb out today.
