We stopped in for lunch last week and enjoyed the large salad bar and quick service. With only an hour for lunch, the service was great. Had the salad bar and spicy shrimp appetizer for lunch and was very full. We ate in the bar and enjoyed the experience more than fast food.

As we drove into town, saw their advertised special was my favorite liver and onions and decided to try it. The liver portion was very large and nicely cooked but covered with a thin coating (breaded?) which I managed to mostly scrape off. The unbalanced meal came with corn as the vegetable and a choice of potato. I believe they had a salad bar, and I might have added a salad if they had mentioned the possibility. Neither of us remembers what my husband ate. Guess it was pretty ordinary. The waitress assumed we wouldn't want dessert--but we ordered pie as a treat and it was good. Saw that they served oatmeal, so we came back for breakfast--but found out the oatmeal was made from a packet--which has too much sodium for me. Don't remember what either of us ate at that point. We generally like local family restaurants--but this one not especially.

Told the front desk at our hotel we wanted something good and local. She sent us here and WOW! Couldn't have been happier. Portions are HUGE and the food was absolutely to die for. I had the sticky chicken fried rice and my better half had the brisket mac and cheese. Leftovers were enough for an entire 2nd meal.

We stopped in as we were passing through town. We had prime rib which was tender and tasty. All of the food was very good and the service was efficient. Appeared to be well-staffed. Overall we were satisfied with the price, service and meal. It was like being at a small town Steakhouse in a big Town. The only thing it was lacking was that "something" that makes it special. We would go back again.

We went early to try out their famous chicken wings on the night they have their wings special. As the time went on, the place became so busy that we ended up having to share our table with an acquaintance and his friend. The wings were very good. The server was so busy that she didn't have time to be very friendly and we had to go find her in order to pay for our meal so we could leave. One of the owners ended up taking my payment. He was friendly and asked about our meal. Unless you like eating in a bar when it is crowded, stay away on the night they have their wings special.

We are are very regular customers and the service we received or lack thereof was the worst. We seated ourselves in the bar area, however, after sitting there without being acknowledged, we moved to the dining area. We were served waters right away, however and water refills we had to get ourselves. After 10 minutes, our order was taken. 20 minutes later we receive our salads. After an hour of being in the restaurant we still did not have our food and our waitress never once came out to say what the issue was. The waitress finally came out and told us they made the order wrong and it was almost ready...at that point we told her we had to take it to go (we were on our lunch hour). The food never came...We finally went back to the kitchen where they gave us our order in a plastic bag. I have never had such a poor experience. I want to stay positive and frequent our local businesses but this is totally unacceptable.
