★★★★★ 5.0 Mike McGill · Oct 2025

I just want t say I was there yesterday with our group knights on Bikes we had 17 bikes and 25 people and the waitress was fantastic she gave us unbelievable service with a great attitude doing it. The cook inside was working his tale off as well getting the food out very quickly for us. I can’t say enough the service and food was great. Thank You from our entire group Mike President Knights on Bikes

Just good diner food. Tacos and Fish and chips were tasty. French fries and salad with dressing, decent. The best part about the place is the cleanliness. The single server who was helping us on Monday, September 8 was a constant stream of activity, cleaning surfaces sweeping, just making sure everything was perfect. The islander is lucky to have her. We came too early in the day for burger night. But we hope to come back on Monday for burger night.

The tomato soup was the creamiest yet strong tomato taste I ever had. The shrimp taco was alright.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Martha Gallen · Sep 2022

Burger and fries were great, definitely would recommend the fried pickles!!! Waitress was very nice and attentive. We waited for the food a bit but that was the only negative

★★★★☆ 4.0 Jeff Kubala · Jul 2018

Good variety. Quick moving. Cash only. The regulars keep their mugs hanging below the specials board. Many different local beers available. I liked the pancakes and sausage.
