    We met a good friend for lunch. We live in SC and only see her three times a year. The food was perfect with great service. We will be back.

    Dinner tonight was pretty expensive for Cold fries and a bbq chopped salad - only 5 or 6 small pieces of chicken. The booth was ripped. Not that good
