Worth the stop! The food was delicious and the service was excellent. We got burgers and a Philly, and everyone was please. Highly recommend.

Pretty good sandwich! The pickle was OK. Restaurant was cleaning and inviting, but the food was a bit expensive. Hope you like Jesus music because that’s all they play in there.

Went for a quick bite, tried their classic burger and It was great. Strawberry milkshake was good for the climate.

Fresh, hot and made with care. Friendly attentive service. Space was clean and open..but really more a hole in the wall space vs having a vibe or ambiance. The bread on the sandwich was memorably good.

The food here was really good. I stop by whenever I'm in the area and at least grab a pickle.

Very clean, great service, yummy food! Ordered at counter & food was delivered to our table. A great hot dog always makes my day, hubs said his Philly was really good. Plenty of indoor seating but no outdoor seating, little dog left in car so this would not work for us on a hot day. Highly recommend

It was quiet when we went in for a late Friday lunch, but I could see it getting rowdy at night. The food was great, and the guys running the place were super nice. Burger and chicken sandwich were delicious. It's a worthwhile side trip from I-5.
