Service/staff was great. Seemed every employee, even the wait staff that wasn't serving our table, made contact with us asking how things were or removing dirty plates and drink refills.The food- the cheeseballs were recommended by friends that have eaten there before and didn't disappoint! Onion rings were also very good served with my sandwich. Both were cooked to a light golden brown. The tenderloin I had, well, wasn't too impressed. As said before the other fried food was a light golden brown but the tenderloin was a VERY dark brown. Compared to the other food it seemed overcooked. Didn't have much flavor either, maybe I was expecting a Spic-and-Span style tenderloin with more flavor/seasoning.My wife had the Western Burger. Instead of a traditional bun it was served between texas toast. As she squeezed to eat it the BBQ sauce oozed through the toast and made a sticky mess. If we would go there again she said she would ask for a traditional bun.Overall an okay visit with the cheese balls and service being the highlight of the visit and an extra dot for this.

This restaurant was recommended by our hotel, and we could see why. The food was great--ribs and other barbeque options. Everything we had was tasty, and the pricing was competitive for the style of restaurant. The portions were very large, though, and we weren't that hungry that particular evening. I was surprised when my hamburger came with two large patties. But the wait staff was friendly. We would go there again if we were in town. Recommended--but go when you're hungry, or share an entree if you don't want to eat a lot.
