I've been in and out of these doors for the past 8 years, never have they let me down on the quality of food, the burgers are what I like but lately I find the chicken fried steak hard to pass up. Always felt like Grandmas house very down home. I love bringing my family here from out of state.
This was easily the top 1 or 2 Chicken Fried Steaks I've ever had!! Eggs and hash browns were cooked perfectly to my request and a tasty pancake for dessert the atmosphere inside is very cool as well. Check this place out whenever you get the chance!
Our favorite place to stop to eat on the road system in Alaska. Perfect place to stop driving North from Anchorage. Staff does an excellent job working hard to turn out a great dining experience. Always worth the drive. Local draft beers on tap in a clean family friendly environment. Love sitting outside on the deck watching the sunset. Big fan of appetizers and Sheep dip that pair nicely with a pint of Twister Creek. Support local @ Mile 88 Parks highway.
Only came here for dinner. The ambiance was homey and comfortable. The food was amazing. My fiancée got a fish sandwich, and I had the chicken sandwich. Both excellent! As an appetizer we had the mozzarella sticks. They were so Gooood! Service was excellent as well, could not be better. Recommend 10/10
Always friendly and hearty meals. Great place to stop!

Short, honest notes are more useful than long ones. A few sentences about what worked, what surprised you, and who the hotel is best for will go a long way.
