Companion and I were traveling from Canada to the lower U.S. and stopped in for dinner.

I will preface this review by saying that anytime I am in this area I will make it my business to come here for my meals!

This is a small diner with a big heart. No matter what you want to eat, if it is on the menu it will be beautifully made and served hot and perfect. I felt like I was eating at home the food was of such character.\

Companion ordered the turkey dinner at regular price. Our server informed us that there was a special on for the turkey dinner and our bill would be reduced if it was ordered. The dinner included even more food as well as dessert for a lower price!

I ordered the apple-cranberry pork, and was amazed at how wonderful the flavor was as well as the more than adequate portion size.

For dessert, even though we were both stuffed, we had homemade pie which was absolutely delicious.

Probably best of all was our waiter. Not only was he knowledgeable, but was so wonderful in his service. He was working multiple jobs at once, yet showed no sign of being tired or of being lazy.

Because of his excellent service, I left him a very big tip. He not only helped make our meal with his service, but he is such a terrific asset to the restaurant.

4 stars for cleanliness, excellent food, and terrific service.
