In Short – Soft yellow-and-white accents, both indoors and out, evoke a fresh, spring-like aura. Plentiful windows allow daylight to flood inside, while handsome copper light fixtures illuminate at night. A spacious bar lines the back wall, offering a handful of seats. The well-planned menu of classic, casual fare features pulled pork and green-chili chicken quesadillas, overflowing with melted cheese and seasoned meat. The Blues burger is capped with crumbled blue cheese and thin, crispy onion rings.
Great food and ambience

Food choices are great and prepared well. Service was great, staff was attentive but not overly so. No one in town can make better omelets and fries! Fun place in the everning to relax and unwind.
- Pros: Best omelets in town!
