Family diner with excellent service. The prices are not bad. I'd pretty much only go for breakfast and I enjoyed what they made. The rest of the menu seemed to be food service product. We ordered an omelette with spinach onion mushroom and cheese that came with hash brown potatoes and toast, oatmeal ordered with fresh blueberries, raisins and nuts, a side of toast and three coffees for $24 before tip. Our server was engaging and very responsive and kept our coffee cups filled. Good breakfast place!

My wife and I stopped there this morning for breakfast after church. My wife had one egg scrambled with American cheese, bacon, and hash browns and apple sauce, while I had two eggs over easy, with bacon and rye toast. We both had coffee. The orders came out quickly. My wife's order was prepared very well. My order was prepared well with the exception of the rye toast. The rye was sliced very thin, which would have been ok, except that the bread was stale, so it tasted like Melba toast, Which is not what I was looking for to sop up the egg yolk. We have been here many times before, and have had many a well prepared breakfast, so I was disappointed to say the least.Our waitress provided very good service and attended to our needs.

Typical proud mom and pop restaurant. Not fancy. Clean, good service, fresh salad bar, homemade soups, and a decent menu of choices. First thing we think about when we think "Family Restaurant" are the soups. Often 4 different selections. For ~$8 dollars each including drinks, you'll get the Soup &Salad, one of about dozen sandwich choices. You will not leave hungrey.Long time prior restaurant business name was "Favored Flavor", popular with the locals.

Our waitress was super nice and accommodating, which made us feel bad since the dinner food we got was awful. The soup and salad was the only thing we enjoyed. The grilled chicken was like unflavored rubber and my boyfriend's chopped steak was unflavored mush...We will not be going back and cannot recommend it to anyone.

Terrible food, lousy service, and I think they hold satanic services in the back!Hahahahaha... I'm kidding. I wouldn't give them five stars if I didn't love them.I've been eating at this place for over a decade, usually at least once a week. I don't recall ever having a bad meal here. The closest I've ever come was a BLT where the toast wasn't super toasty, it was just a little toasty. If something isn't right, they are great about getting you something else and making it right.The service is excellent, the food is good, and the atmosphere is friendly. I'm going to miss going here when I move, they are so great.Seriously, if you like BLT's, this is the place!

The food here is mediocre at best!! Buffet items were limited & lukewarm!!! Watermelon was soggy, not good!!! Jennifer was an attentive server!! Large clean place with nice decor!! Has nice large booths. Would not recommend this place for breakfast because there are places near by with better value for the money!!!

Last week, this was my new favorite place. This week I tried the Rueben . I was amazed. Amazed that I was served a 10 dollar sandwich that had less meat than a burger from the dollar menu at some drive thru. So, if you are on a diet, or simply want to annoy yourself, order the Rueben .On the bright side, the soup is still good, but I am kinda hungry.
