I feel as though I am in 1976 even though I wasn't alive then. Very nice vibe. Unassuming yet awesome.

I love me some fried chicken but this place is ok. Not great. Save the $11 and go to Golden Dragon and get fried chicken there.

Fried chicken plate and nachos
Penny HardmanOctober 13, 2010
The frozen drinks are amazing, but don't expect to get them quickly if it's busy. Not because the service is bad, but because the drinks require some work. Therefore, don't forget to tip well.

Skip their fruity and frozen cocktails. They're as sweet as you'd imagine. The burger is a huge win.
