We had a late lunch here, midweek, and thought the food was very good and fresh considering the time of day. The staff went out of their way to be helpful. For example, they brought butter from the kitchen upon request as margarine is served with the bread. Food could have been hotter but everything was delicious. I had fried... More

Great food! Friendly service with a smile! Nice clean atmosphere! John Deere decor! A real taste of southern hospitality! Our noon lunch "cafeteria style" was fast and pleasant! A real breath of "fresh air"!

Very great lunch experience, the ladies were wonderful, the food really good and hot. Does a great business and can't wait to go back!
