    Very positive people, ☺️ a restaurant thats in deep with the community x the surrounding area let's me know that its not just about bottom line its about moving the culture forward, no racism just great honest people with great attitudes that know the difference between right x wrong 👍 will go above and beyond to get your order right within reason if you make a complaint. Will update with pictures soon but right now maybe only one person will find out how great I take pictures via my Google travel guide 😀 😊 profolio, will update but as of now "their dinning room floor so clean you can eat off it" even during these times where businesses in local semi rural counties are not making as much ; just another buisness in your profolio and standards shouldn't be forgotten it all evens out without a leveler.

    Ordered outside at the carport. Ended up having to go inside to see what was taking so long for my order. It was not busy so not sure why the delay. I had my granddaughter with me so this was inconvenient. We had a small order of pretzel bites and a sprite.

    The tots, cheese sticks and chicken filets were cooked WAY to long And it tasted like the oil needed to be changed. For the cost I had to pay it was awful. The lady at the window was not very polite. She kept talking to people inside with her headset still connected to the speaker. Probably won't be back.
