Wasnt impressed by the food...AT ALL! On the way inside the restaurant I passed two patrons who were complaining about how bad their food was. However, I held out hope that their experience was an isolated one. It wasnt. Our waitress was pleasant I took no issue with her. She was well acquainted with the menu and advised if a dish I was considering would have a longer than usual wait time. The rest of my group had already arrived before me so they had placed their orders (I had an hour drive to get to this place). Wait time was important to me. I was hungry! One person ordered the crab legs. One plate she received was cold. And she noted that the shells were soft and hard to crack. Another ordered the Gyro plate. Her meat was dried out. Not moist at all. She sent it back for a Reuben that she rated as being "OK". I ordered the Pasta con Broccoli. The broccoli was over cooked to the point of being mushy. The sauce was passable. The two others in the group had no particular complaints, but werent exactly impressed by their meals either. At the end of the evening we agreed that this establishment would not be appearing in our monthly dinner rotation again. I was disappointed to have driven so far for such a poor quality meal. I could have paid just as much for a fast food meal that I ate on the way there and would have been happier with the meal. Which is saying a lot since I rarely eat fast food meals.

I wasnt impressed by this restaurant. The coffee was weak. This floored me, since usually in establishments like this the coffee is robust, not like brown dishwater. They offer non pork turkey substitutes for bacon and sausage, yet when I wanted to substitute the pork sausage in my skillet for turkey, they charged an extra $2.00 to do it. Upon receiving the dish, I realized the sausage they use is less quality than a typical grocery store and it was gray, dry, and inedible. The hash browns were frozen and barely done. The dish was barely seasoned. It simply wasnt very good. My husband ordered potato pancakes, which he loves, and left one whole out of the three uneaten. They were "terrible," he said. He asked for a specific way his eggs should be cooked... over hard with a slight gel left. Instead they were HARD.. like HARD BOILED style overcooked. My husband said the best thing on the table was the toast, and even that was about a C-. The food was expensive (nearly $30.00 for breakfast for two) and not nearly good enough to justify it. Id say avoid. There are better choices in the area.

The service from the staff was as should be expected; kind and attentive. My meal however, was pathetic. I ordered the new york steak with side of white rice and broccoli. Sad to say, the broccoli was the best part. The steak was smaller than some pork chops, and looked to have been seared then boiled. Tasted like it was boiled as well. He rice was definitely boiled, as the water content was like a soaked sponge that melted away when entering your mouth. The broccoli was fine. Probably a restaurant you want to get fried food at and avoid anything that takes basic cooking skill.

Food was awful! Went for lunch 3 had steak 1 had breakfast....food was cold...server was not attentive...was given a glass that was badly cracked....Told manager about the food..etc...she did not seem to care...never offered an apology...I will never go back and advice my friends and family not to go as well...It was my granddaughters 21st birthday was was told when I called that they would sing to her....the server said she would see if the staff would...it never happened ! They just lost a lot of business from us. Thanks for the awful birthday lunch!

Usually not awful, but not very good. This visit was the worst. 50 cent tacos were a JOKE, chicken was black inside, and the OWNERS WIFE is a joke as a manager, boss, and owner. Wouldnt take anyone to this restaurant. Feel bad for the servers serving this trash. Very disappointing.

Friend of mine told me to go here so I took my wife for her birthday there and I had the $ 7.99 3 topping pizza and she had steak and shrimp with 2 sides for only $ 9.99. and honestly I have to say I was very impressed with the food and the service. We will definitely return.

They only got 1 star because that was the only way I could write a review. This place is horrible. The food is terrible. And nothing but excuses. Will never go back. I would not recommend this place to my enemies. Wouldnt be surprised if this place closes.

Great place to get good food and a large variety of it. The staff is very polite sometimes theres a little bit of a wait for your food but for the most part its a good dining experience with a great selection.

Great breakfast but they tried to discourage me from eating my fill of all you can eat crab legs. After the first order the legs were bland and getting smaller but I worked my waiter

All you can eat crab legs... horrible. Crab legs are salty and soggy. Overwhelmed by fruit flies. Felt like I was eating at a picnic. Service slow. Wont be returning.
