I had chicken fried chicken with sweet potato fries, green beans, and Texas toast. My husband had chicken fried steak, french fries, green beans, Texas toast and house salad. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was welcoming and homey, the service was excellent. My husband said his chicken fried steak was hands-down the best he's had..... Ever! My chicken fried chicken was excellent as well, and I loved the sweet potato fries. We will definitely be dining here again and often!

Stopped in for breakfast and was treated like a long time customer! The coffee was great, the Loaded Omelette with homemade Picante saucewas just fantastic! Stop in for your hot food made to order.

You get a 1950s diner feel when you walk in . The music and the decor ads to this. Love the fact that you can drink a tasty piping hot cup of coffee and listen to great music!! The food was just fantastic very good,. They have the best hashbrowns and Chicken fried steak breakfast!

I must've been hiding under a "Rock" thought just Bkfst. Immersed in 50's Diner from music, checkered floor, decor, old display case. the Mural & other artistic touches. Hamb Steak was moist w/mushroom gravy. Sweet Potato Fries. FRESH crisp Salad. Must have HOMEMADE PIE. I had PB pie, friend had Pecan Streusal. So good got 2 more to take home. Worth the stop.

Taco. Tuesday. My wife had 2 fried taco's w rice and beans. They were nicely filled, crispy and packed with flavors. I had the Supreme nachos., with a side order of tasty fried okra. The nachos were stacked, I thought to myself, I won't be able to finish this here and I will have to take it home in a box. Good thing, cuz its my dinner too. Waitress was pleasant, clean place, good prices and yummy food.
