We stopped in this little gem on a road trip and were so glad we did! The burgers were amazing and we also enjoyed the onion rings! Kimon was awesome and took a moment to learn our names even! Would highly recommend if in the area.

Great food, friendly team, definitely the best onion rings and reuben sandwich I've had in a very long time. Would like to see more dinners like corned beef and boiled potatoes/mashed. Need Keto friendly with meat and veggies ... just a suggestion. Will definitely be back!!!

This was the first time trying this place. I'm so glad we did. For starters Taylor and Lily were pretty awesome servers!! The food was very good!! We had a burger, and wings. The Ranch is a 10/10, highly recommend. Beer was cold and mix drinks were spot on. We will definitely be returning!! Thanks for the great experience for our first of many visits!!
