Always visit when I am in the area. Been a customer since 1983. The staff and ownership has changed several times but some how the food and service remain top notch. The place is clean and the portions are generous. Only the coffee could use an upgrade.

Diner vibes, but not busy and seat yourself. The service is ALWAYS great. The food is excellent- you' know what you're coming in for, and it's solid. Burgers, fries, onion rings; club sammy, breakfast plate, patty melt; and my all time fave, never go home without- fried zucchini. Why is the ranch dressing so damn good??? bc they make it in house. I had to ask... it's just that yummy.

Fresh warm, spicy asada fries were perfectly seasoned, left my belly nice and tightly full.

I live down the Block and have been coming here for a few years. I can honestly say my food has always been good and the service has been great, always with a smile and very friendly. The club sandwich combo is absolutely delicious and one if my favorites. I've grown fond of the ladies there, they are always sweet. If you have a problem you should look within because they treat everyone with courtesy and professionalism.

I just left the restaurant. The lady working the drive-thru was so friendly and provided exceptional customer service. Also the older guy that handed me my order was very kind. Lovely people and great service. Thank you.

Must try!! Had my first breakfast burrito here while visiting from FL. The size is enough for two meals, for a regular sized human. It was made to order so, nice and hot. I'm Mexican and enjoy spicy food, therefore very happy about their salsa. It's fresh and medium hotness. Hope to go back again!!

I honestly didn't expect too much from this restaurant, but I was very surprised at the quality of the food especially the chili cheese fries. They were some of the best chili cheese fries I have ever had. The burger was good, but nothing special. perhaps the meat was just a little overcooked, but not too much. I would definitely go back though.
