    First time there and did the Easter Buffet. The food was fantastic. All homemade like you were sitting and Grandma's table. This was not cheap Easter food. There was hamm, prime rib braised short ribs and more. The dessert were plentiful and tasty. The service was 10+. The service staff all.helped each other and kept filling the drink cups and removing plates. No rushed feeling and was told to relax and take our time. Can't wait to back again. PS found out it is family owned. Support local business.

    The Easter buffet was a 10 out of 10 - I have zero complaints. This is one of my favorite restaurants. When I come here for the regular menu or the buffet, I know I’m always going to be satisfied and a full belly!
