This place has been a family favorite for years! They even did some catering for us and had the best prices out of everyone checked out. The staff is really, really cool and all have a pretty good sense of humor. We always order the setup. Depending on the day, it comes with different entree's and sides. Try the spaghetti!! All the food here is pretty good though.
This family style restaurant has been a favorite of my husband's for years. It wouldn't be his bday if we didn't go there. A differnt soup every night and a menu that has enough to please most. If you dare to try a Pican Punch it can spark a fire in you! The staff does a pretty good job taking care of you and the food is like eating at home.
this is a great place to go if you want to eat family style. relatively reasonable, staff is friendly.
