It's a quiet little small town diner. Lots of pictures of John Wayne.

Food was undercooked, waitress was absolutely terrible. Ordered appetizers and it was just dropped off with no silverware or dip had to go to counter for that. When I did our waitress was very rude and commented I didn’t need silverware or dip cause I had no food. No refills for drinks no butter for roll had to ask for ketchup. Salad came with meal not before. Asked for mayo and got ranch I’m sure the waitress did that on purpose with her bad attitude. I don’t like it when a waitress has long hair and it is not contained at all. No offer of to go boxes or dessert. There was a few people but not that busy she couldn’t do her job without attitude

Their service was quick, not good but quick. The food was not very good and the mashed potatoes were more like slimy jelly potatoes for some reason. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $10–20
