Had a good Prime rib dinner & walleye dinner. Waitress excellent and sweet. Staff was all very friendly and kind, it’s one of those places where they know their regular customer’s and treat like family.

Was in on Independence Day and it was busy, but the waitress was sure to greet us with an authentic smile, friendly word, and prompt service. The food was good and didn’t have to wait longer than necessary. We weren’t constantly checked on, but she made sure to let us know that we were not forgotten about either. Glad to have a small restaurant in town that focuses on customer service and homemade-style food in a timely manner. Thanks for “showing up” in the customer service world; it has become a rarity in this age of entitlement.

New place to us. Met with my family here and the food was really good. It was served hot and was good. We had fish and hamburgers in our party.

Typical diner atmosphere and food. The food was good and the atmosphere pleasant and light. The service was excellent. My second time there. If I lived in Lincoln, I could see myself eating there often.

Super breakfast (mex omelette and wife had gyro skillet). Excellently served by a very friendly gal and the place had plenty of elbow room and was spotless.

Just a basic American food restaurant. Some comfort food. Lots of choices. Nothing that particularly wows, but it isn’t supposed to. It’s a basic, small-town experience.
