Great little hole in the wall diner. We chose the buffet and for the most part we were not disappointed. The pork needs some help to make it not tough but the meatloaf was great.

What a local treasure! We had the buffet ... everything tasty and made onsite. The family running the buffet was super friendly. We couldn't be happier ... I only wish I could give them a six-star rating ... so much better than franchize food.

We stopped by for lunch with 3 bus loads of troops. Everything was clean and well organized. The salad bar was well stocked along with the buffet table and the food tasted fresh. The servers did an excellent job being attentive and refilling drinks. It's a ittle off the main interstate but worth the visit and highly recommended. Some of the biggest hits on the buffet table were the catfish nuggets and meatloaf!
