They remodeled and it looks super nice. The food was awesome. I got the Philly with fries and my kids got breakfast. Ive been coming here since I was a kid. It used to be the Ranbow café. Its changed a lot but still super nostalgic. I love this place. ❤️

WOW. So delicious! We ordered the catfish dinner and loaded potato skins. Portions were huge. mashed potatoes were very creamy and buttery, plenty of flaky fish. would order again. the tater skins?? best I have ever had. so fresh and soft w real bacon! couldn’t get a pic of those bc they were gone quickly.

This place has only been reopened after renovations for about a month. My wife and I were excited to get back to see the new look and enjoy some good food but we're disappointed with the new food quality. They have put in a food bar where you can choose from it or order off of a limited menu. Breakfast used to be served all day but now is cut off at a certain time. My wife loved their open face roast beef but was very disappointed. The gravy has changed and did not taste as good as before. I myself ordered a patty melt and didn't get a patty melt. The 2 items that make it a patty melt was not even offered. Usually when you order a patty melt it comes on rye bread and served with thousand island dressing. They had neither one. I pretty much got a cheeseburger on Texas toast. Very disappoint

Me and my husband are from Florida and we wanted to eat at a small mom and pops diner. I’m so happy we stopped here. I highly recommend this diner. We got way too much food for a cheap price. Our server Allison was amazing. Kept our drinks filled and was on top of making sure we got our food hot. PS. The biscuits and gravy is the best the best.
