Easy to find and get to. Seated quickly and the place seemed clean. They got our drinks quickly, I had Pepsi and the ladies had water. I got a hamburger steak with two fried eggs over easy. The wife got an omelette with hash browns. The orders were large so it should be plenty to eat. Our waitress kept our glasses full and was very nice about taking on my glass refills. I would come back

Wow! This place was recomemded by my Mother in Law about a month ago. We've never been to Kirksville as we live in Seymour IA its about an hour and a half away but we came to cut down a Christmas Tree and decided to stop. Very family ordinated (Cartoons were playing) we were seated as soon as we walked in the door they gave us plenty of time to order my husband got the all you can eat Walleye, he said it was really good and you couldn't even tell it was fish! I got a taco salad (recommended by a lady who was coming outside as we were going inside) and our kids had some fries that were really good! Three diffrent people asked how the food was and how we were doing I think one might have been an owner or manager (he looked very nice) Over all the service was nice the place was very neat and tidy along with a lot of space. We will return soon!

For average priced meals you will get 5 star service and a delicious meal. I got the steak sandwich and hot wings. A little too much bread on the wings but easy to pick off... very good. The sandwich is pictured. It was a very simple concept and totally delicious. The fries were amazing. My waitress visited my table anytime my drink was past half full. She was conversational and fun. I'll be back next time I'm in this part of town. Oh and they make their own dressing... mmmmm.
