I dine here often! Especially on Tuesdays evenings! Ask for Laney if she is there - she's my favorite waitress! Be sure to let her know that I sent you! This place has awesome American style food! I love their club sandwich and crinkle cut french fries. Every Tuesday, from 5pm-9pm, the menu is half price. You can get a club sandwich with fries for $4.50! You can't beat that deal! They also have wings for 59 cents each, and boneless wings or 79 cents each (Tuesday nights). I try and go every single Tuesday! Love this place!

This is a great local establishment that I frequent for breakfast! Ask for one of my most favorite two waitresses - Shay or Becky! Tell them I sent you and they will be sure to take extra good care of you! They have a great lunch too!
