Surprisingly good! Cole slaw was cold and sweet the way I like it. If you don’t like the sweet type of Cole slaw it’s not for you. First time I’ve had fried steak fingers and it was very solid. Gravy could use a little more flavor but otherwise a great greasy spoon type meal. Dinner roll was also buttery, warm, and moist. Fries didn’t stand out in any particular way but were properly cooked and served.

We got a cold wet burger in place of a

Was hoping to go back to an old spot for something good. Turns out i was wrong. There was barely any sauce on the sanwhich leaving it dry. The grilled cheese was cold and not even melted being able to easily separate the slices. Such lazy cooking! How can anyone put food out like this?
