Loved the stuffed mushroom appetizer. Fish was a little overcooked but still good. And they have Keno. Was nice seeing friends there that I've known for 30+ years.

I got a club because my dad said it was the best one he's ever had and he wasn't lying, it was fantastic. The French onion soup was very good as well. I would definitely go back!

First time here and it was pretty good. I had the southern rubin it was good. We enjoyed the music to radio or jukebox not sure but it was good.

This location has indoor and outdoor seating. There is a bar inside and it could get pretty loud. Service was slow inside but I believe that was because it was only one waitress. Ordered the chicken salad crispy and it was huge and delicious! Husband ordered the turkey club and it was also huge and delicious. Would have gave it 5 stars if it wasn’t for slow service.
