    Buttermilk pancakes
    Kaiti P.

    Awesome little breakfast spot !!! Service was impeccable. The food came out extremely fast and was delicious. They have a large menu with lots of great options. Red Apple Omelette- yum!!! So good and even comes with a side of tzatziki Cinnamon French toast- my sister said it was amazing Waffle Club- huge waffle with strawberries and other toppings and side of bacon/sausage. My sister said it was the best waffle ever Highly recommend this place for quality and affordable breakfast!

    A combo of biscuits & gravy, 2 eggs, 2 sausage, 2 bacon, choice potato. Filling and tasty

    First time dining here and that is just terrible. The service was top notch. The food was very very good. It is a diner so the menu is "diner esque" with lots of breakfast (served all day) options and lunch options (also served all day) with things you'd expect to see listed: a variety of omelets and skillets and pancake and egg options. The food came out quick, like I would hope in a diner, even though every single table was filled and there were 5 families waiting their turn. Hot and fresh. Had good flavor. Value was on point for this meal and we will certainly come here much more now that we know how good it was.

    Unlike many businesses, this place is not understaffed that I can see ... and the young adults unlike many establishments are very kind and professional... it seems these ma and pa establishments have better service than their franchise counterparts these days... 10 dollars for a big breakfast in a time when prices are rising is an excellent deal and very good and filling at that... this is a very popular establishment and busy very often ... expect to wait for a short time and it's absolutely worth it.. also a shout out to the senior citizens that also work here hustling like the young adults... excellent place to visit

    The service couldn't have been better. Seated quickly. Attentive and friendly servers and bus…read morestaff. Knew lots about the menu items. Ordered water with lemon. They forgot the lemon. Just let that go. Wasn't meant to be. Ordered a large Momma's pizza. Thin and crispy party. Lots of toppings in center. Feel like it could've used some more cheese as the edges hardly had any toppings. Crust was slightly burnt on the very edge but not to the point of bitterness. Also ordered a grilled Caesar wrap. It was a bit small but full of lettuce and chicken. All the shaved cheese was off to one side and the chicken in the middle. Feels like it should've been tossed together before it was put inside the tortilla. The dressing wasn't the best. Next time I will ask for ranch instead. Also, it's nice to have the tortilla warmed briefly but I failed to ask. Most places do it automatically or they grill it. The baked potato was fluffy and good but a bit orange in spots. Probably had been sitting in a slow cooker beating for awhile. Overall not bad. Prices are middle of the road. Will try them again.

Our server, Melissa, was a star (though I did notice the entire darn team hustles non stop--kudos to all). We started with the Jalapeño Popper Stuffed Mushrooms. Sooo good! Burgers are always awesome at the other locations so we had to get at least one here -- it was delicious. The other sandwich we ordered was a special called, The Bistro. It was fantastic. Prime Rib, thinly sliced, mozzarella, crispy onion ring/shreds with a chipotle mayo and au jus. Kiss the chef. I don't know how often it's on the menu but it should have a permanent place. Note: they do have a Prime Rib sammy on the menu all of the time so I'm sure it can be made any day but I would not have thought to put it together. Great stop. Great service. Great food.

    Nice scenic ride out to The Holy Hill Area,( I can just imagine how beautiful it is in fall)…read more Followed by a wonderful Easter Brunch. Yes, it was packed. We had a 2:00 reservation and got seated around 2:35. Meanwhile I enjoyed a delicious rasberry/lemon drop martini at the bar. Check photos posted, it pretty much listed what was on the buffet. The only disappointment was the didnt have much of a childrens section and my grandchildren are very picky eaters. I did ask our server if they could order off the regular children's menu but I understood that that was not possible but it was okay. They filled up on bacon, strawberries, croissants and deserts. Our server was very efficient and there was definitely enough staff to handle this crowd. Very positive experience

    Second time here in the last couple of months…read more Food: As much as I love the history of this place, the beautiful woods surrounding it, and the charm of the building, I have been very disappointed by the quality of the food. Unfortunately, this second dinner was even worse than the first. The rice was undercooked, the short ribs were dry, and the scallops were gritty. I realize that, for some people, the Buy One, Get One promotion is a big draw. However, I suspect that the menu prices are inflated to offset the BOGO savings, so it doesn't end up being much of an actual benefit. My wish is that they would focus on improving the quality and consistency of the food and charge prices that appropriately cover their costs while still allowing them to make a profit. I don't think we'll be coming back anytime soon, which is sad because there is so much to like about the location and atmosphere.
