"The owner is very nice. Cooks do a great job. They really turned this place around for the best! So nice to see this business having a comeback! So cute inside and all the staff are so sweet and caring. They pay great attention to your needs. This is our Saturday place we go to get some good food and made to feel like family from everyone here. Stop in and give it a chance you will not be disappointed at all. Set up beautiful! And the food and drinks are so good! I’ve even had the pleasure of thanking the chief in person for the great meal. I’ve gone here so many times I should have taken more pictures. Steak is cooked to your liking spot on! You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu."

"Had the halibut sandwich and grilled salmon with mashed potatoes, gravy, and steamed broccoli. Our waitress was super sweet and nice. She was on top of drink refills and always had the sweetest smile on her face. The salmon was cooked perfectly, mashed potatoes were silky, and the gravy was unique with flavor, but it was super delicious. Definitely not your basic restaurant. I would go to this restaurant again!"

"We were three people for lunch on a weekday. Very large breakfast menu, fewer lunch options but still plenty. My French dip was a massive amount of food with very tasty fresh homemade bread, and a lot of au jus, which I like. The french fries were quite delicious as well. It took a while to get our check, but the service was otherwise friendly and good. The food was a little pricey, but considering the serving sizes, a decent value."

"The best table service experienced thus far [8yrs] on the peninsula. Our server was extremely aware of her tables. We never waited for anything but our food to be cooked. Breakfast was the choice of the day. Eggs & hashbrowns were cooked really well! Definitely excited because that's hard to come by at most local [Breakfast] restaurants. Pancakes were light, fluffy & delicious [same as eggs,hashbrowns] One complaint: biscuits & gravy This particular dish is one of my favorites at any restaurant, always wanting to try.. This order, however, was absolutely horrible. Have zero idea of what type of gravy was attempted, but failure very disappointed, because I was looking forward to that dish! We left satisfied, full bellies, & very appreciative of the service we received . Definitely will be back try different dishes, just not the biscuits & gravy."

"Stopped in on our way back from Homer and were pleasantly surprised. Service was excellent from the moment we walked in. We ordered fried pickles, mozzarella sticks, and calamari to start—each one was delicious and impressively not greasy. I went with the French dip for my entrée, and the homemade bread was absolutely perfect. The only downside was the au jus, which was far too salty. Otherwise, this was a fantastic stop and we’d definitely come back."

"My wife and I went for lunch there Friday around noon, we both had French dip and for the record, it was the best we've ever had at a restaurant. The fries and onion rings were perfect, the sandwich was home made bread. The service was great. We will be back!"

"Absolutely fabulous. We went king salmon fishing and the catch was the place to cook our catch of the day. Cooked to perfection. From the river to the plate delicious. Plus had a huge hamburger."
