But then again........ You must realize this review is written by a vegetarian, so I'm not a good judge of a cafeteria style meat & three restaurant. I think mushy canned vegetables are despicable, and I've never understood mac and cheese that is cooked macaroni with hunks of cheese in it, rather than a sharp cheese melted into a white sauce, mixed with al dente macaroni and then baked - BUT if you want lots of food for a reasonable price and this is your type of cuisine, then by all means go for it. Pleasant staff.

We loved our dinner! We started with Basil Pesto Cream Cheese Bake With Roasted Peppers & Chicken Kabobs. They were both incredible. For dinner, my son & I ordered the Filet and my wife had the Grilled Chicken Salad. Everything was cooked perfectly and was delicious.

I've been here several times and I'm never disappointed. A friendly place - age of crowd when I'm there is 30+, which is perfect for me. Friendly staff, good food, good drinks. If you want a 5 star meal and $$$$ pricing. If you want a relaxed place for a sandwich that is reasonably priced, you are at a good spot. Old furnishings- not many flat screens, which adds to the ambiance as they say

Lovely halibut. Very nice clumped crab. Salads were fresh and flavorful. Bread was so well presented I had to taste it. Hot teas selection was a nice surprise and delightful. Each element was quite enjoyable. I appreciated the chef slightly altering his creations to fit my requests.

We tried their chili cheese burgers this first visit and loved them. Weâve been looking for a place with burgers better than Arnoldâs (bc of their lack of appreciation for customers through keeping it freezing cold in there and not being attentive to marking Togo orders so you donât have to thumb through everyone elseâs food to see which one is yours) and now weâve found it! They really appreciate your business here. The burgers were juicy and good! I canât wait to go back and try some more of their food.

Wanted to go with my family for breakfast. Got there at around 10:35-10:40 on a Saturday and once we walked into the restaurant portion were informed that they were no longer serving breakfast and lunch would start at 11:15. We were okay with waiting, asked for some menus, and sat down. No one brought the menus, so we just ended up going to get them ourselves. We also picked up a few pastries to bide the time. The menu for lunch looked good....the pastries were, well, lackluster. Probably wouldn't spend money on them again. The only one worth eating was the apple turnover. So we waited until 11:15 came and then, being one of two tables with customers at it, attempted to get a waitress. This took quite some time as they were all very busy doing nothing and checking their phones and talking to one another. Once we finally got a waitress we went to order at around 11:25. I got a BLT, the other's got burgers (only cooked to one temperature.....well done, burnt, and dry as it can be). I got chips because it was extra for french fries...never seen that before. We got our food fairly quickly, which is probably the only positive to this establishment. It was rather difficult to get down. I'm not sure how you can mess up bacon, but trust me this place knows how. It was just so hard it hurt my jaw to chew. The other's had difficulty getting the extremely dry burger down as well. Unfortunately, no amount of ketchup could save it. We then spent the next 45 minutes trying to get our check and attempting to pay.Overall, the service is extremely slow (especially since there was no one in the place) and the food is lackluster. The most fun part of the whole experience was the fire hydrant outside the restaurant where was parked that was half buried from when they must have paved the road.

We drove in from Georgia to try this restaurant and was not disappointed. Thereâs lots of outdoor dining but we sat inside. The staff are friendly and hospitable. Itâs a small menu but varied enough to ensure thereâs something for everyone. The swordfish was excellent, crab cake tasty and warm bread with olive oil was acrimony. We eat out a lot, and this was a delightful experience.

My wife & I returned for an evening out & it was most enjoyable. The service was exceptional with an excellent wine list. I had she crab soup which was very good & a seafood trio special which was a crab cake, shrimp & lobster tail all of which were most delicious. A bottle of â The Snitchâ Chardonnay by the Prisoner vineyards paired quite well. We look forward to returning soon.

The service was slow although the restaurant was not crowded. We waited several minutes to be seated as several waitresses buzzed by, without even a Hello. Food, however was very tasty and interesting. Local eggs from local farms. Home-made jellies and jams. Would rate a 5 if customer service was better. Very economical.

Really great barbecue and loved the sauces. Glad I only got the junior plate. Could not even finish that! Had fried okra as my side! Loved it. Banana pudding was very tasty.
