Grilled salmon with parmesan risotto is always solid. Moist and cooked right. Glad it&#39;s a regular.

Been going here for years. It&#39;s a simple counter-service spot, the vibe is always relaxed. The BBQ is consistently good, nothing fancy. You get your brisket, ribs, and all the usual sides like mac and cheese. Just solid, reliable food.

Got the rib plate special. Decent food, huge portions. The wine list had some nice local reds that paired well with the ribs. Fun spot with lots to look at on the walls.

The eggplant parm was massive! Came with breadsticks and a salad. Cynthia was super attentive and made sure our table of friends never had an empty glass. Great spot to catch up.

Been coming here for years, and the smashburgers are still the reason. My kid&rsquo;s been saying they&#39;re the best in town since he was little, and he&#39;s right. Just a solid, consistent burger every single time.

Been coming here for years. It&#39;s the perfect spot for families - relaxed, clean, and the kids always love the arcade games.

Prices are totally fair for what you get. My plate was piled high and everything tasted fresh. Good spot if you&#39;re hungry but not looking to spend a fortune.

Server was super friendly and kept checking in. Portions are huge, so that was a nice touch.

Opened a few minutes late, but the staff was super pleasant. The house red was a nice, easy drinker that went well with the hot, fresh food.

The Reuben here is solid. Real corned beef on rye, just like it should be. Fries were crispy. Price is fair for what you get. Good for a quick, no-fuss lunch.

The Tiger Cry beef was so tender, and that spicy dipping sauce really worked. Thai iced tea was creamy and refreshing too.

Tried to get a refund for a wrong order. It took a few back-and-forth emails and a phone call, which was a bit of a hassle. Not the smoothest process, honestly.

The Hi-Boy burger is solid, and the onion rings are generous. I really appreciate how clean and tidy the dining area always is.

The server was really nice and kept our drinks topped up. Just the right amount of attention.

The staff here is really nice. They messed up our order a bit but fixed it right away, no fuss. Felt like they actually cared.

The staff was so friendly and happy to chat about their beers. Really enjoyed learning about the local brews!

I&#39;ve been here a few times and it&#39;s always a solid choice. The menu has something for everyone. I really enjoyed the mashed potatoes this time&mdash;so creamy and comforting. The service is friendly and never rushed, which I appreciate.
