the food was wonderful!!! I had the country fried steak and my husband had the liver and onions... The portions were HUGE!!! I don't like liver, but my husband said that it was the best that he has ever had and that is his favorite meal. The country fried steak was excellent as well. The service was great!!!

Place looks interesting from the outside. Menu is OK. Had zesty chicken nachos which were kind of expensive at $12 and the quality nor the quantity warranted the price. Service was passable. The long wait was not good and then seeing the meager amount of food for the price was disappointing. more

However, it took over an hour for our entrees to arrive, and every other table seemed to be suffering the same delay. General impression of disorganization left us wondering about the food quality. The food was unremarkable, and fries had to be... more

Needed to find a place en route to watch hockey. Pulled in here, and they let us watch for several hours. The decor is old West/gas station memorabilia, but more tasteful than tacky. Entrees like hot beef on bread, chicken fried steak, etc. reminded me of home. Large portions, good quality, friendly and helpful waitresses, clean bathrooms. Has a bar... more
