    Fried green tomato appetizer was crispy, hot and flavorful. Four of us dining and we had strawberry salad, Rueben, pork tenderloin sandwich and chicken and waffles. All served together in a timely fashion. Chips accompanied the sandwiches and they were wonderful. Chicken on salad was flavorful and tender. Many other selections on menu we would love to try. Great lunch!

    There weren’t too many people there and yet our server was slow and was not very attentive. When our food came, my order was incorrect. I ordered nachos with chicken and it came with steak. They did let me keep the order with steak and did finally get my correct order. I realized later that they still charged me the up charge for steak ($8) vs the up charge for chicken ($6)

    We were happy overall but feel that you pay more for a small amount of food. Bigger eaters may not be satisfied with the servings. The food quality and service is very good. Love the decor and overall vibe.

    Food was good. Very long wait. They don't have regular coffee, hot tea or bottled water. Very noisy.
