Excellent Chinese food, big portions! Can eat in or take out.
* Great selection of food, ranging from breakfast favorites to big steaks. Personal jukeboxes are found on every table! Beware of the drunken young adult crowd in the early morning hours on weekends.
Great breakfast food.
* Burgers and steaks are good, nice selection of drinks.
* Great selection of burgers and drinks. Fun atmosphere.
* A selection of Mediterranean and American comfort food prepared fresh using quality local ingredients. Some of the menu is different each time, although favorites are always served. Sunday 11AM - 3PM is a fixed price brunch, all other times dinner is served. Very fresh, very local, family run, and the owner takes preparing quality food seriously.
