“ Quick work lunch for three of us without reservations. Were told we could seat ourselves anywhere we liked. Not terribly busy around 1pm. Few errors on ordering, but server corrected quickly without hassles. Pizza was decent. Small pie with cheese and pepperoni for about $10. Cheese curds were delicious! ”
“ Wonderful pizza and French dips. My husband likes the fried chicken & fried okra. Lots of TVs for sports. Nice cold beer and great service! ”
“ We were a party of four and my wife and I had never been here before. We were seated right away and greeted by a wonder server named Sara. From the moment we met her we knew it was going to be a great experience. The two ladies in our party wanted sweet potato fries and Sara told us they were out of them. So we ordered and not a few minutes later Sara came back and told us their truck had just arrived and they had sweet potato fries! The rest of our experience went way beyond our expectations all because of Sara. The food was all great and we left with a smile on our faces. Thank you Sara for making Gary and Bonnie's visit one of many more to come in the future. ”
