What a tremendous dining experience in a most uncommon place!! I am a trucker by trade and travel all over and I especially like to patronize Mom and Pop restaurants and this one especially fit the bill. My wife and dog are traveling with me on this trip and I found this place right up the street from where I am delivering in the morning. It was recommended by the gas station attendant down the street from the restaurant and he couldn’t have picked a better place for my wife and I to dine for the evening. Unfortunately they don’t allow dogs, even with a patio, so we had to leave our dog in the truck, but that didn’t spoil the excellent service, atmosphere and delicious food that we thoroughly experienced. Our waitress, Sheryl, was such a delight and treated us with the utmost respect and care. We were the only patrons of Foundational Black American descent, but we felt right at home because of her wonderful demeanor, inviting smile and effervescent personality. What a wonderful server and an excellent representative of this outstanding dining establishment. Kudos to the chefs as well!! The food was nice and hot and very scrumptious!! My wife had the Primavera pasta with Chicken and I had the Baked Stuffed Haddock (they were unfortunately out of the grilled Salmon) and everything was so good! Great portion size as well! We had enough to take some with us. We topped it off with 2 servings of the Key-Lime Pie, which my wife took with her. I had a little of it while seated and it was nicely presented and very tasty!! I took the rest with me as well. I highly recommend this place and I will certainly patronize this restaurant again if and when I’m back...
Read moreMy husband and I stop in frequently and grab a bite and drink at the bar and always have great service and delicious food. We always wonder why it doesn’t get busy. Well, tonight we took the family in for dinner and now we know why! The service at the tables is terrible! Long waits for drinks, to order, for the check. Then to top it off? We couldn’t have the burger special because the person eating the special was drinking water. Mind you, we purchased 5 dinners and 6 beverages. But because my son was drinking water, we didn’t qualify for the special pricing on the burger. The table tent does state that you get the discount with the purchase of a beverage. Well, my husband had two beers, mother had two glasses of wine, my father had a glass of wine and I had a beer. So we purchased 6 drinks. 5 entrees, one of which was the special. That seems a bit nit-pickey. So basically IF we ever chose to go back, we would have to lie and pretend that one of us who was drinking was also ordering the special and then do a secret swap? Ludicrous. very disappointing to find out how little they care about their customers. I asked to talk to the manager- not there. Asked to speak to the...
Read moreFood: 3/5. Nothing to write home about but wasn't bad either. Pretty basic pub food but you know what you're going to get at least. Had the burger which was fine. I will give props that it wasn't overdone but had a good, pink center.
Service: 5/5 staff was friendly and came enough to check on us. It took a little bit for someone to recognize us waiting there to get seated but other than that no complaints.
Atmosphere: 4/5 fun atmosphere to go with friends. Not the place to go to for a quiet, romantic meal but it has a fun vibe. Fun decor too.
Overall it gets 3 mainly because of the food not standing out. That being said, it's reasonably priced so it's a 5/5 in terms of meeting my expectations of a town hangout spot with basic but solid food. Just be careful because they nickel and dime you for extras on your burger so a cheap burger can quickly add up. Good spot for a cheap date or catch up with friends over a beer...
