Food is delicious. Great family restaurant, plenty of seating, good prices. I ordered the 1/4 lb. cheeseburger with only grilled onions, wife ordered the chicken Philly. They have the GOOD fries with the crispy edges on them. Server Laura is wonderfully attentive, the type of service some dream about – brings what you need before you need it, asks questions, checks with you to make sure everything’s okay – all with a smile. The chicken and rice soup really hits the spot.

A surprisingly good place to eat. There was only one car in the parking lot so I did not have high hopes. The restaurant was clean and the waitress was friendly. I had a ruban and my wife had patty melt. The food came out quick and hot.Both were very good, We would definitely stop there again if we were in the area again.

Holy price increase! My family and I were regulars here, at least once a week and oftentimes more. It was the kind of place where you could get a decent meal with good portions for a fair price. Just a bit more than what you’d spend to eat at home without the cooking and dishes. We all have our menu favorites and what we spend has been very consistent. When I received our check during our most recent visit I was shocked to find it at least $15 more than usual. Thinking maybe it was a mistake, I went back to ask about the amount and was told they “updated” the menu. A fountain drink is now $3.30 making 3 sodas $9.90! Everything else was higher as well by quite a bit. I understand costs have increased but to go from $10-12 per person to over $20 per person including tip is a bit much for what we order which is mostly sandwiches. Too bad, this was a great little place to grab a quick bite but I don’t think we will be back. There are better choices for that kind of money.

Very calm atmosphere and it is a nice place to relax with and stop on a road trip. It is conveniently located right next to a gas station. The chicken sandwich was delicious and the service was amazing.

I was really surprised by how friendly the server was and how good of a value the food was. Everything was freshly prepared, decent portions and inexpensive. I would certainly stop here again in the future. The little lady that works here is from Macedonia and is super sweet. they have a nice selection of desserts as well

Needed a little Eat, Pray, Love moment and was on my way to Chicago when I ran into this little gem looking for gas. The outside was so curious, the sign read ‘RESTAURANT’ lol I loved that and had to go in to at least take a peak at the take away menu. When I walked inside it was not at all what I’d expected. Clean, spacious, well lit and decorated, you could see the cooks in the kitchen from the front door. No frills but beautiful. The menu was nice too. Good American Food. I was on my way to some very authentic tacos in the city but I asked the woman who greated me how long it would take for a BLT and she said maybe 5-10mins. Perfect. I went across the street and got my originally intended gas. Came right back and it was in a bag packaged and ready to go on the counter. Amazing. I sat in my car and destroyed that thing. All this to say. Probably the best BLT I’ve ever had. And great service. Bravo.
