Yelp.com Review - by Alison W.

3.0 of 5 stars. Mmm, the sweet potato fries were delicious and unique. Instead of salt or the seasoning, they sprinkled them with cinnamon. So it was both sweet and a little salty. The fries came with the chicken...

1.0 of 5 stars. No thanks! Food is beyond tasteless diner food. I guess the only thing that saves the diner are the ice cream shakes. Service, what service? You're better off doing everything yourself.
