Customer Reviews

"I love this place. I visit the area from South Carolina a couple of times a year and I always have to stop in for lunch. The food is delicious! I had the chicken fried steak with fries and a salad. WOAH! It was a huge piece of meat. It was delicious. A friend had the patty melt with gluten free bread and crispy fries and her mom has the crispy tacos. We also had a small cup of the cheese soup! 20/10!! Definitely stop in here for a meal!"

"Had a good stop eating a chicken fried chicken while at Pleasanton.The food was okay, nothing out of the ordinary. Other than the flies flying around, and the waitress killing them with a fly swatter I had a pretty good meal experience"

"This was our first visit. My hubby had cheeseburger with fries and said it was very good. I had a patty melt with a salad. The patty melt was good but I missed the grilled onions and Swiss cheese I grew up with. Also, there was no "sauce" on the melt which I missed. That being said, it was tasty and I ate every bite. The salad was fresh. If there's anything I'd do differently with the salad I'd serve it in a bowl and not on a plate. The coconut cake for dessert was to die for! Our waitress was delightful. We will definitely go back."

"Food is okay most times. Tonight was served lettuce with rot, not so good and rueben sandwich served cold. They need to put salads on a plate that won't spill out everywhere, too."
