I think the onions would have took it up a notch. Took a small bite out of the Hoagie sandwich which was really good too. My order was ready when I got there. The doors were locked when I got there and lucky for me, someone was leaving out, so I was able to get in. They are open every day but the close early on the weekends, see picture. It is bigger than I imagined it would be and they also are an ice cream shop. So more to explore in the future. Get out and support small businesses like these.

For a Friday night, we were able to get in with no wait. It was pretty full in the restaurant. We got a large table top for 6 in main Dining Area. Our waiter came over and quickly introduced himself. My son was ready so took his order and then came back. The food came out fairly quickly as did the drinks. Ok so the drinks, my aunt and dad liked the sweet tea. My son said The Resolution special drink was good. I had the smoked winter old fashioned. I could not tell it had been smoked. The drink was just okay. I would not order it again. I expected more in Bourbon country but alas. My son loved his bbq bacon burger and fried. My aunt said the slides and salad was good. She loved the side salad. I enjoyed my fish sliders and fries. The fries were really good. The waiter needed to be more attentive. The other staff was helpful in his absence. I am thinking he was new. They have an assorted menu with many options. It's a decent sports bar.

Most of our group ordered the scrambled egg and cheddar breakfast, which also includes 2 sausage links, 2 bacon slices, and 2 pancakes. It's rare to be able to eat for this low price. Pancakes were fluffy and almost a cake-like taste/texture. Waitress was friendly and efficient. Food arrived fairly fast for our entire group of 6. Plenty of free parking. Noise level mild to moderate at over 1/2 capacity of the tables taken. Retro facade of the building exterior is quite eye catching and a departure from a typical Denny's.

Then I ordered the soup and a side of grits, which were both delicious. My husband order the Beef cheek Po Boy - yummy! And my friend ordered the Cuban. The fries are tasty and everything tasted incredibly fresh and well prepared. Of course we saved room for dessert and shared the Banana Cream Pudding. It had a roasted marshmallow top and probably the beat Banana pudding I've had! For drinks, we got the Filly Lilly, A specialty Mint Julio with Thyme in it, and the winner was the Strawberry Rhubarb Buck. Wow! Not only was the food delicious, but the service was great and everyone was very friendly and helpful. We sat inside because it was a dreary first half of the day before the sun came out for the Derby! But, there were a lot of nice outdoor areas to sit and enjoy your food or beverages.
