“You can never go wrong by stepping into this establishment. They treat you like family. The food has an excellent taste. … It's like stepping back in time. You get so much food for your money. … pull over, stop and say hi to the gang.”
“The 1/2 broasted chicken special was amazing! And for all the food the price couldn't be beat! The burgers were great. Loved the sweet potato fries too. My son loved the extra cherries in my husband's soda for him. Our service was excellent. Great stop at a nice local place.”
“I had the Canada Jack burger with no bun … excellent burger taste with Canadian bacon and Monterey jack cheese (the Swanee burger is much better). … My date had the Friday night special - a 10 ounce sirloin steak with a side of coleslaw and a side of cottage cheese. All was delicious! … The server was so kind and attentive. Great prices and excellent quality!”
“A good choice to stop at for a nice burger, ribs or broasted chicken. Service was great. … Fine beer selection.”
