on Citysearch Dec 22, 2008And have always liked the food and atmosphere very much up until the last two meals here. They have gotten terrible and will not return, even though I have lived nearby since 1984. (more)

on Citysearch Oct 29, 2007This place is so good it was even in a novel written by a local author. I have been going to this place for years and can say that it is the best. The other reviews explain how great the atmosphere is, and it is, so I will not... (more)

on Citysearch Oct 09, 2007This is a great place to take the kids. The duck pond will entertain them while the food is being prepared. The food itself is not the greatest. Its a fun family outing. (more)
