Highly Recommend going here as soon as possible. Food is fantastic everything homemade. Friendliest service around. Very cozy, great place to take a date. I will come again and again and again. Go for family style, that way you get everything. If you don't do that, get the smothered chicken. If you go Saturday, they make smothered pork chops...mmmmmmm goooood! more
