Wow this place is a southern restaurant, just like in the south they give you a lot of what ever you order. Big pancakes and sausage Patty's a plate of hash browns. You have to go and see for your self. And it's good that's what top it all off. Parking: It's in a strip mall so there's plenty of parking

A nice and cozy atmosphere feel. Went here for brunch had a cup of chicken rosemary soup. Lumberjack plate,chicken tenders and waffles. Food service was great, the portions were very generous. They have a great selection of hot and cold coffee. Dine in: Yes Takeout: Yes … More

This place used to be so good and worth the money. It’s gone downhill. Some of the waitresses are amazing but some are so dirty looking. Our waitress this time was great but the time before was not a great experience. The whole place is just kind of dirty. My skillet was $20 was 90% potatoes. This happened twice in a row. I was hoping the first time was a fluke. We won’t go back.
