Imperfections PurposeJune 12, 2012Best 2 out 3 stars.... Great service, great food, but the bathroom service needs some improvement.
tony ellisOctober 1, 2013This is the most expensive truck stop diner that I've ever been in. $10.50 for a bacon cheeseburger & fries? Waitresses should give complementary lap dances with every meal for what they charge here.
Don't forget, you can enjoy an ice cold beer with your meal. Limited selection.
Kevin WilliamsonFebruary 27, 2012Bring your wallet....the prices here make me.wonder if Outback is cheaper!!!
Brian WahlMarch 29, 2013Get a part time job and you MIGHT be able to afford to eat here. First and last time Coming here!
Karina DayAugust 7, 2013I was really unhappy with my visit here. My meal was cold and the bun was so soft from all the grease! I sent it back and still was unhappy.- Delanea WadsworthSeptember 2, 2013Was not impressed in the least... Way way overpriced, slow and sucky service, and food was awful. On the bright side the coffee was amazing! Will not be going back
- Melissa MarieNovember 27, 2013Seems overpriced for what it is - paid $9 for soup and a sandwich that were both very basic. Breakfast food is definitely the way to go here.
Scott N.🇺🇸🚚October 19, 2013Had the pulled pork it was dry I had to soak the shit out of it with barbecue sauce will not be eating here again I'll eat beanie weenies out of a next time
Jodie ScheerAugust 1, 2013Gross... Raw bacon and burgers! Poor meat quality and poor service. $40 for a BLT, two hamburgers, two orders of fries and 1 soda is ridiculous! Bad service too!
🍺Joey M. 🍻September 29, 2013Grilled chicken sandwich still raw on inside. And like the other tips, way overpriced. Glad ya got my $ this time, cuz I won't be back.
Bruce SteeleSeptember 29, 2013Without a doubt the worst hamburger steak I've ever had. Over cooked & tough as a boot. Even didn't care for the taste.
Terry DreherSeptember 22, 2014Service was slow as usual won't eat here again prices are too dang high
spunky driverDecember 7, 2013Disappointed waited 30 minutes for waitress to take our order an never came back so got up an left
Jason MalischFebruary 21, 2013Mediocre at best, and that's being nice. Slow service, terrible food, overpriced. Overall not at all impressed.
