"We go here often especially for brunch. It's not crowded the service is excellent and the food is very good. It's not a fancy place but I feel that the value makes up for it. The restrooms are clean which is important."

"I would have gave 5 stars if the sandwich was prepared properly. The fries weren’t seasoned no ketchup for them no napkins and also the picture of the hot mess meltdown sold me but when it came it was like a big hunk of meat. It should have been shredded and topped with the onions and cheese then toasted. The flavors were good but the preparation was poor left most of my bread over cooked and no meat on it. I thought it was a burger at first. Maybe I’ll try in person next time."
