"First and foremost. HELEN, our waitress was amazing! Personable and outgoing.
Found this place on our way from FL to Reno, blew a tire, and needed to get a new one, so during the wait, we filled our guts.
Ordered food and mixed drinks. I thought my margarita was a little on the light side, I will say the house tequila is on point, lol.
Food was great, and something about the apple cut fries. ."

"We eat out A LOT!!! Hands down best service I have ever experienced!!!!! The food was very good and the staff was amazing!!! I feel like this place is the best kept secret in town!! I will say they do add 15% gratuities to ALL orders which is fine with me because I felt like our server was well worth it and then some."

"The food here is pretty good. I dislike that they play rap and hip hop music, but I keep going back. The gumbo pasta was fantastic 😍. I will be back for another plate.
I've also had the jalapeno burger and the cordon Bleu. Wings are good and at a good price."
