We did wait almost 10 minutes for a waitress to stop by the table to greet us and take our drink order, but again it was packed, so not a big deal. They serve you a basket of bread and a plate of oil for dipping when they bring your drinks out. The bread was very soft and fresh. We started with an order of toasted ravioli for the appetizer. We didn't realize that an order only comes with 5 raviolis. Since we had a party of three at the table, we placed a second order. It would be great for them to list in the menu how many comes in an order to prevent the wait for the second order to come out. For entrees, two of us had the Fettuccine Alfredo with grilled chicken, and the other had the Cannelloni Florentine. The food was good, as was the service.

Tonight we ordered two pizzas, one was a double decker with pepperoni, sausage and onion and the other was a garden veggie pizza.

And they then started brining out food. At this point we were really confused. We hadn't ask for anything. Every table was the same.

When you walk in, there isn't a sign or anyone telling you to seat yourself. The place was busy on…read morea Saturday evening around 5:30pm, and another guest actually told us to grab a seat wherever we would like after we stood there at the door for a bit. There were 3 ladies serving the entire restaurant. From what I could tell, they were responsible for drink orders, bringing out food, bussing tables, and plating desserts and bringing those out too. There are no menus and only 1 option for family style chicken and fish, with a salad, bread, and sides consisting of corn, mashed potatoes and gravy, dumplings, and green beans. They don't tell you this. I had spoken to another guest, so I knew this was the case, but if I hadn't, with this being our first visit, I would have been very confused. We had a very young waitress who was still new. She was doing her best, and I felt bad for her, but we waited for extended periods of time on food, and never had a drink refill. The only thing hot when the food came out was the chicken. All of the sides were barely warm at all. The fish and hush puppies were also not hot. They bring you one piece of chicken each, and then we waited 20+ minutes for additional food once we were able to finally ask the waitress for more. The table next to us ordered desserts when we got our bread and drinks, and they still didn't have them when we had already finished our meal, paid the bill, and were leaving. The waitress explained to them that she had to make the desserts herself and she was slammed with just trying to bring food out and get drink orders and that she was still new. She apologized multiple times, but it's not a good system at all. They need someone bussing tables, so the waitresses can focus on drinks and food. They need a sign that tells you to seat yourself. They need to ask if it's your first visit when they walk up to get your drink order so they can explain how they do things if it's your first visit. The bread and strawberry butter was my favorite part of the meal. The side salad had a good flavorful dressing, but only comes as a bowl of lettuce with a couple grape tomatoes sliced in half. The food had good flavor, even though it was cold and we waited for extended periods of time to receive it. The restaurant was clean. Since you have no menu and no idea what to expect, the prices are $18.95 each, and a 4% up charge for debit or credit cards as of July 2025. Unfortunately, we were not impressed at all and probably would not visit again based on this first experience.

Also, it is basically the only option for food on that side of Shawnee apart from hot dogs at the Garden of Gods. With that said, food quality was not spectacular. Burger was very greasy. Chicken wrap was boring and it had unwrapped by the time it was walked 6 feet from the kitchen to my table. So it was more like a giant taco of sorts Onion rings were tasty but for costing almost as much as the burger they were quite stingy with the portion - we got 6 rings. They do have outdoor seating but they do not allow dogs on the patio - booo!

The scrambled eggs were not scrambled. They were flattened, like it was made for a breakfast sandwich, then chopped up. The texture was not good. I wish I read the other reviews about the eggs. I expected real butter and not a butter spread for my biscuits. The sausage and biscuits were just ok. I recommend the restaurant changes how they cook scrambled eggs and get real butter for the biscuits and toast.
