The staff is courteous and service was amazing! I will definitely coming back and recommend everyone to visit frequently.
Party of 2. Appetizer of pickle fries (pickles cut longways into fry shapes and fried). Philly cheesesteak w/ fries and BLT w/ tater tots, the two side choices. Service was very prompt. Clean and well-lit. Good water (not a guarantee!) All the food was good. Not incredible, but for a tiny town local restaurant, WOULD STRONGLY RECOMMEND
