We love this place. The waitresses, JJ and Dee, are incredible! The food is always served quickly and to order. We went a few times and neither JJ nor Dee were there and it just wasn’t the same! They really make you feel like family and make the experience special! You leave feeling like you have visited with family!!

Yesterday I was in the restaurant for brunch. The food was yummy but I was so excited to see Dee and JJ!!!!!🤩🥰😍🥳😍🥰🤩🤩🥰they were not there on my last visit and it just wasn’t the same.

It was delicious and very easy to eat in the truck on the go because they wrapped it nice and tight and cut it in half so it wasn't a messy experience! I loved their chocolate milk, they mix it themselves and it reminds me of my childhood mixing Hershey syrup in milk. It doesn't have that weird artificial taste to it and really hits the nostalgic spot! The staff was so kind and seemed to take great care of everyone there and they pay a

We had breakfast on 3/7. I was so excited that JJ & Dee were back. The last couple of times that I was there they were not there & it was not the same. These 2 make that restaurant special. The food was delicious but the service was exceptional!
