Ok I'm a little confused I just posted a review of this place a few minutes ago I thought I it reviewed that and posted it a long time back but it came up so I hit save just in case it was not there this is a new one. This time had Reuben with fries. I like this one too I have a good breakfast and good Reubens. It wasn't too heavy on the Thousand Island that was good corned beef was good and the bottom piece of bread was slightly soggy but not bad overall I really enjoyed it and I would recommend the Rubens to anyone who comes there. It must have been a birthday of the owner because she had flowers on the counter by the cash register that was fun. Apparently she's been working there for 20 years maybe. Is the daughter is working there and likes working there. That would be cool if that restaurant would be taken over by the Next Generation.

They have an amazing staff that makes you feel like you're part of the family. Although I've eaten there several times, I've only gotten breakfast. You can take and customize most items to your liking. I take all my friends that come to visit there and we've never had a bad interaction. Must visit place!

This is a nice little restaurant that seems to have a lot of regulars. There’s a wide variety of options and if they don’t have exactly what you want, it is easy to customize your meal. We stopped in for breakfast, but there is a menu for supper as well. The servers were friendly and came around the fill up everyone’s coffee often. I would definitely go back.

Food, cost, and service were phenomenal. We dined and got the Philly, a pancake, and the Arizona omelette. Delicious! The atmosphere is homey/cozy and sounded like the staff closely knew many of the customers/regulars. It's a good spot!
