Nice small town restaurant, I just missed the lunch rush so there weren’t many people in the restaurant. Ordered the rib sandwich and it was good, nothing special similar to the mc-rib meat is what comes to mind. The sides are actually what we’re really good! The broccoli salad was fresh and crisp, then the home made curly fries must have been cut when I ordered them because they were fresh as well! If I’m back in the area I’ll definitely make another stop. Last was told if you go in for the lunch hour it can be slow if you’re in a rush, but it did look like they do carry outs.

First time here. Nice to have a close alternative to Ottumwa's fare. The tenderloin sandwich plate was delicious, I substituted beef gravy for the white, just my preference. Delicious, filling, and cooked just right. The mashed potatoes are food service style, smooth and buttery tasting, just like in school lunches way back in the day. My wife had the hot beef sandwich plate, and she said it was very delicious. From what I observed on other tables, the numerous choices available on the menu all looked really good, and you can get full bar service as well with your dinner. The pie menu was very long, and even included key lime, but we were too stuffed to try any. Neat, clean, tasty, and friendly. Your wallet doesn't have to suffer, either. Definitely worth repeating the experience.

Don’t judge by the outside appearance. Food was very good and service was adequate for how busy they were (packed house). Friendly staff and customers even though they didn’t know us. Tenderloin dinner was more than I could eat and the pattie melt with sweet potato tots had my wife impressed. Hopefully we will get back there again!

Nice family restaurant for this small town! We were there on a Saturday for a late lunch, and it had recently been remodeled inside. The fish and tenderloin sandwiches were very good, and a choice of side was included. I would definitely recommend stopping by when you are in the area!
