    Went for breakfast and was pleasantly surprised. Good, varied selection on the menu. Ordered the Garden omelette. Price was reasonable; portion size was just right. Presentation was good and temperature of hot items was perfect. The potatoes were some of the better ones I've had - lightly crisped and not greasy. The accompanying toast was served dry - a nice change from places that drench toast in butter - which allows you to dress it to your liking.

    Friendly staff, good portions, timely service, prices are fair for the portions, with dinner plates usually lasting 2 meals. Currently my favorite is the penne with meat balls and bolonaise. If i make it before dinner i go for the san Francisco grill.

    The food proportions and servings are good at a very reasonable price. Very tasty and a vatiety of choices. The place is always clean with management always on top of everything and hands on. Service is excellent as well.

    Delicious Food n generous portions. Although, they might want to clean after a party leaves a bit faster, so others do not have to stare at it while eating.
