This place was definately old skool, but at the same time very quaint! Staff gave you the old time feel, and they were friendly and professional. My steak fingers were on point. Had a good time. We will be back again.

Great little old school burger spot. They knew i was parked out back with my dogs and brought us pur dinner when it was ready.

The chili burger was the best I ever had. You know you have come across a great place when you see the locals there. Simple menu.
