This place is always running specials, and it's great, it's practically a full mean, you get your drink, main course and a dessert for really not a bad price. Everything is made to order so when you get your food it's hot and fresh, it's a nice change to the hustle and bustle, the cook usually tells you when you walk in (kick your boots of and stay a spell) we love it out there, food is great and the service is even better.
