Atmosphere is really cool, it’s a farmhouse look with multiple levels. Bigger on the inside than it looks with a great layout. Resturant cleanliness: clean and nice Restroom: clean and nice, little fancy You will have leftovers, unless you haven’t eaten in days!"
"Home of the Nasty Biscuit! The restaurant is huge! Lots of seating and the waiting area is large. You can even order a coffee while waiting for your table. The staff was nice and the food was excellent! I especially liked the chicken fried chicken and gravy."
"Enjoyed a great breakfast. Our server was very friendly and engaging. The food was delicious, and the portion sizes were just right, at least for the french toast. Ok...the lumberjack portion was huge. Look at the size of the pancakes. The atmosphere is very nice, definitely a southern feel. If you haven't been here, give it a try."
"Great breakfast place! Their biscuits are huge and their plates are so filling and good portions. I ordered the country fried steak and it came on top of a biscuit with delicious gravy and wow it was the best I ever had. I also got a coffee with liquor which was yummy! My husband and daughter liked the food and drinks as well. Their menu is pretty big so plenty of dishes to choose from. We got seated on the upstairs level which was cool, very spacious and not too close to others. Would definitely visit again."
