Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Home style food with large portions at very reasonable prices. Came here lunch while visiting the area, sad that we do not live closer, we would love to come back more often!

Best breakfast cafe in the area!! This little Ma & Pa restaurant can get busy on the weekends, any time waited for their home cooked meal is totally worth it. My family loves this place.

Pulled in for lunch with a couple of biker friends. We had 1 pulled pork plate, 1 pulled pork salad, and 1 wings & fries. All our foods and the ice teas were very good. Service was slow. Our waitress appeared to be overworked, and...could have used some help. The good food and reasonable prices might have me stopping in again; If I'm ever back in the area.More

We had lunch here today and it was very good. We both had pulled pork, excellent! Large portions as a sandwich with one side, and as a meal with two sides. Had the meaty baked beans, seasoned fries and don't forget to order a sweet...tea...so good!More

Mostly been here for breakfast but the one time I went for lunch they had a very good burger. The specials sound good. Last time we were there they were out of meatloaf which is a menu item. Good prices and food is okay.

At least once a week we go there to eat because the food is good, plentiful and the staff is friendly. By going on a regular basis we have gotten to know the names of the other regulars, which makes it feel like family. I...read some of the negative reviews and wondered if they went when the restaurant was getting off the ground and Veronica and Juan were working on getting waitresses. Wish those who did the review would give it another chance.More
