“ We have lived here now for about 6 years and just discovered this restaurant. How lucky were we? We could never decide where to go to eat once in a while when we want to dine out. My daughter took us here, and we were all blown away. From the moment we entered, we were greeted and taken to our table. The server appeared immediately to take our drink order and appetizer. We got the chicken quesadilla. It was tasty and had a perfect crunch on the outside. The server was very attentive and took our main dish order. We had questions about the menu, and she clarified them all. We got the pepperoni pizza roll, chicken, bacon ranch roll, and a Swiss burger (I asked for teriyaki sauce), and the server asked if I wanted pineapple on it. Wait time for our meal was minimal. The server refilled our drinks without us asking. All amazing taste and flavors. Highly recommend this restaurant. We know for sure that we will be returning here. ”
“ This might be tucked in the back of a plaza and somewhat intimidating to visit after dark, but it’s worth the visit! The staff is friendly and they offer some interesting menu items, all that they make in-house. Their pepperoni rolls were decent, but not the best I’ve had. But their stuffed hot peppers were definitely the best I’ve had; nice, spicy, and flavorful! Atmosphere is somewhat basic, but it’s welcoming and they play the games on their TVs at the bar. I’ll definitely return! ”
“ Visited on a busy Friday night, traveling through area. Local sports bar feel, but food was great. As other reviewers have recommended, the pepperoni rolls are delicious. The fish fry was good. Service was excellent. A great locally owned restaurant. ”
