Staff was very nice and always checked on us. Can't wait to come back again and might even make it our family's Sunday tradition!

But seems we will be looking elsewhere.

We will definitely be back. The breakfast was delicious, the restaurant is gorgeous, and the attentiveness of Brittany was top notch!

This downtown spot is popular with farming families, so we basically had the place to ourselves! The menu is everything you'd expect off a grill, so I picked a hamburger with fries. Our waitress was sweet and very friendly. The kitchen was so fast we were in and out in about 30 minutes. The best part of my burger were the garden accoutrements: the juiciest tomato, greenest lettuce and freshest onion. I bet it's all grown locally! The restaurant offers an ATM machine and gambling machines, which didn't interest us, but is worth mentioning. You'll find Gina's just over the railroad tracks and across from the community bank. Enjoy!

The salad bar was terrible, the lettuce smells of chemicals and the macaroni salad had a cheep plastic taste, cottage cheese taste like plastic too, even the Coleslaw wasn't homemade...

I ordered the pepper jack curds, side salad, baked potato, and the walleye. Oh wow oh wow. The curds were to die for. The salad and baked potato were so good with my fish.
