    Overall the food and experience was excellent. We did, however, miss the traditional servings of cottage cheese and especially the vanilla ice cream with the trio toppings. The chocolate cake was a little heavy after the meal. Also, iced tea & lemonade should be included in the price of the meal.

    No tablecloths, and folding chairs. Not what it used to be. Very expensive!

    excellent food and service! the back room was extremely cold with the air conditioner blowing throughout our visit. It made the. experience less than enjoyable. I would recommend the restaurant but recommend sitting in their front dining room.

    Excellent food as usual. Service was good as well. They may have priced themselves out, however, for our future visits. They have cut back on items that used to be served as part of the main meal, and increased the price by 30%. It is chicken, not a filet! Krogers fried chicken is pretty good, and a fraction of the price.

    Perfect "Sunday dinner." Great fried chicken with all the sides, including just enough dessert - ice cream & your choice of 3 toppings. Excellent value, pleasant and efficient service.

    First time here. I absolutely enjoyed myself. I had the fried chicken dinner. The food was fresh and delicious, and the green beans were perfectly seasoned. They have a whole experience planned for you regardless of what you order. I 10/10 recommend.
