Absolutely stellar food and good vibe. I had ribeye steak and eggs which were a huge portion and rivalled most steakhouses I've ever been to. Price is reasonable for the portion and quality you get. My whole table were very happy and sharing parts of our plates. Oh and parking is spacious. It's a gem - Smitty Werbenjagermanjensen
