"The chili dogs here are amazing! However, like many things these days, they're a bit pricey at $3.09 each. I remember thinking they were expensive at $2.50, haha. It’s not that this place charges more than others; it just feels like everything is a bit overpriced these days. Still, it’s a great little business, and I think it’s worth spending money here compared to bigger chains like Wendy’s or Culver’s."

Great food, served fast! I had the walleye basket, very good stuff. I'm so glad they are open again.

Heard great things about this place, but was bummed out by the experienceWe had our order repeated to us twice, and they still messed it up.

I dined here for the first time this evening, and the owner personally came out to thank us for our patronage. It was such a pleasant surprise and incredibly warm! I’m looking forward to returning for another meal! View menu

I visited this restaurant again and, although we didn't stay long, it was a nice experience overall. The new owner came out to chat with everyone, which was a pleasant touch. The food was hot and freshly prepared, just as I remembered. The only suggestion I have for enhancing the atmosphere is to play some rock music—maybe a bit of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons—to really lift the vibe!
