I was also pleasantly surprised at how good the biscuits were. They were nice and light and fluffy. My husband really enjoyed the pastrami hash. I really liked how the coffee is served in different types of coffee cups. Just like visiting family that has collected mugs along their travels. Service was quick even thought it was Friday morning. We were sat right away.

Apparently I was standing too close to the push in door for his liking and thought it would be fun to tell me I was an idiot and didn't know how to follow directions or read signs. I should have walked out. Will pass on this place in the future. Shame on who ever that was......probably the owner, for making a customer feel so uncomfortable and unwelcome.

This was at 5 pm and there were only a few customers in there. We ordered calamari and crispy chicken and squash ravioli for our main course. It was all just ok.

Having said that, I didn't order a steak after the banana nut chicken caught my eye. This fried chicken breast in a banana nut glaze was delicious and unique. This dish is worth a visit in itself. There was also a good deal in the special menu for two with a selection of entrees for $15 each. Portions were large and everyone enjoyed their selection. Service was fast and friendly, and the ambiance inside the old, Main Street building screams elegance.

Beautifully decorated with colorful paintings and sculpture type wall hangings that were very interesting. Bright and airy with tables and booths, kinda causal elegant. Our waitress was Megan and she was really cool. She was funny and took very good care of us. Mondays special is $10 hamburgers so 3 of us ordered the Cowboy Burger which came with homemade wavy fries. The burgers were huge and very good. (I couldn't finish mine!). It was cooked exactly as I ordered and came with cheddar cheese, thick sliced bacon, and house made onion fries. Yum, great burger. The fries were thick, cross cut potatoes that were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, not greasy at all. My partner got the 2 chili dog meal and he enjoyed it very much. Overall a really good experience so we will be back

Went for Easter Sunday dinner with a friend. The server didn't come, but sent the hostess to bring…read morewater. Once the server came, we ordered appetizers, then he wanted to know what we wanted for our entree. We said we wanted to wait, as we all hate when we are eating our appetizers, and the main course comes. 3 times he came and asked us if we were ready to order. Umm. No, there are still appetizers, and yes, we told him we'd order when we were through with our appetizers. Finished the appetizers, had to ask the waiter for water 2x. Ordered main dish, our friend ordered the special which was on a chalk board when you walk in. About 5 minutes later the waiter says we're out of the special. She asked to see the menu. He didn't offer it. Our dinner came out about 2 minutes later, and she had to wait another 8-10 for her dinner. If you knew you were out of the special - wouldn't you hold the rest of the tables order so everyone could be served together? Once we all had our main course, as did our friend had to ask for steak sauce twice. Didn't see the waiter again. The hostess came by once. Once dinner was completed, the waiter brought the check and let the dirty plates on the table. The hostess came by and asked how the food was. And said "I'll get your server to clean up these dishes". Never did. Once we said No thanks for dessert - he was gone. At first we thought It's Easter Sunday - they're busy. Nope, only 3 tables full. And as we left, we noticed the special was STILL on the chalkboard. If you're out - cross it off, or erase it. Not a difficult step. The food itself was "good" but not excellent. We have been 3x now since they opened, and probably would not go back.

I had such high hopes for this place, but I should've listened to the negative reviewers. My wife…read moreand I stopped in today ( 8/30/26) for brunch at around 11:30. The patio is about half full and the dining room inside was less than a third full we were seated quickly. It took 10 minutes for somebody to come by with the menu another 10 minutes to get our water and coffee, and our food, which was an omelette and a breakfast bowl, took another 45 minutes, which as I read on yelp was the chief complaint. My wife's breakfast bowl was very good, but my omelette was definitely overcooked. The waitress literally stopped by our table for the first time at the 45 minute mark, other than that, we sat there for what felt like an eternity. We asked twice about the food. One time got no answer. The other time got "We are short staffed today." This seems to be a running theme with this place, if you read on Yelp, probably 2/3 of the reviews are very positive about the food which my wife's food was very good, and the other third is about the absolutely horrible wait times and the general unfriendliness/indifference of the weight staff specifically the only female who acts as a waitress. There are two other gentlemen who see you and get you, water, menus, etc., and help where they can, but I was so beyond frustrated with the amount of time it took to get our food on what should've been a relaxing Sunday that the wait time completely killed the whole experience. I will say that the waitress got really really interested in service right around the time it came to pay. To the ownership I'll say this much, while the food was overall pretty good, you can't make people wait for an hour and a half for an omelette and a breakfast bowl especially while your restaurant is not even half-full. I think if you figure this out the place will be a success.
