Wow!
Big portioned home cooked meal with a southern theme. I had a very nice sized French dip that was very hot with plenty of meat. Came with crispy battered fries. The way I like em. We also tried a unique appetizer: creole deviled eggs. Amazing. Plenty of indoor/outdoor seating. Good service.

We found a treasure.
Our first visit was a wonderful experience. The food was excellent and portions were substantial. Service was great too. We will definitely come here the next time we are in Salem.

Great Brunch
Great food! Were in town for a softball tournament and came here to celebrate a belated Mother's Day. Everyone enjoyed their food and the service was amazing.

Outstanding food and service! Will go back whenever we are in town.
The food here was fantastic! We had breakfast for lunch and it was delicious. I normally don't like breakfast potatoes,but theirs are perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. We weren't aware that it was such a a popular place because we were from out of town, but we will definitely go there again when we are in Salem. Great, great food and service.

Great Breakfast!
I love this place! Their food is normal regular food, but cooked or put together in wonderful ways or combinations that make me think " why didn't i do that?". If you're sitting at the bar, you can watch the food being made right in front of you! The food is delicious, the service was very polite and fast. Can't say enough about this place. Great Breakfast!
