    Sliced BBQ plate with choices of two sides - potato wedges and BBQ beans.
    Lindsey B.

    We met some friends this evening for dinner. Everything is pleasantly good. You get a lot of what the size of your plate actually is. -piled high- This is a decent BBQ restaurant where you make your own drinks, look at the menu to decide what's best for you, your family, and possible take home or leftovers... Choose a single dinner plate option or two meat for a plate and two sides. Their chicken tenders and wedges (potato) are famous !!! While you make those decisions you'll definitely make memories.. Great atmosphere and great helping people. Take home boxes are located at the refill drink machine!! Self serve.

    The ribs had a soft texture, sauce was acceptable, salad fresh. Overall decent but not memorable.

    Not sure what your definition of bbq is but dang sure is not it. Bbq beans are just pork and beans with some meat in it, ribs were dry and practically beef jerky, the bbq sauce is an absolute joke I mean WTH is that!!??? Ketchup with brown sugar? Hot bbq sweet baby jesus it's indescribable how bad this was. First time and last time

    ows the menu for the restaurant

    Should have known better. Service is cafeteria style. Went on a weekday at 8pm... 1 hour prior to closing. They were already scubbing the floors, hotel pans and bathrooms. Floor was wet and had to tiptoe around. Ordered pork sandwich...so gross. The lady was using a rack of ribs to cut our sausage...huh? The sausage was cut longways...making it hard to eat on the sandwich. It was boiled and had no decernible flavor. The pork was definately boiled and flavorless. The beef is simply sliced thin like deli meat. Also flavorless. Sides are pitiful. Boo to no potato salad, but really glad I didn't have to endure what that would have been like. The bbq sauce was served in your everyday crockpots at the end of the serving line. So much burned up bbq sauce on the sides of the crock... have these been washed? Do they change out the sauce? Never ever again.

    My expectations were too high. Turned out to be overpriced, mediocre "barbecue" on top of a pile of store bought sides. Very disappointed.

    The selection of food is small but it tasted good especially the mashed potatoes, the BBQ pork, and…read morethe fried chicken. The food selection felt like back when I was in elementary school but better since chicken and noodles was on the line when I visited. The line to get the food can get long during peak hours, but the dessert selection had plenty of pies to choose from. I noticed that there were some vintage dishes on the line such as jello salad and marshmallow salad which is rare these days.

    This is an Amish buffet. If your momma was a good cook this food will taste very familiar…read more It's a no fuss restaurant. You come, fill your plate and pay about 18 per adult... if you leave hungry it's on you. There is no menu. You just choose from selections that do not change much and all of it is included. The bbq pork is simple but good requiring no additional sauce. The fried chicken is tasty and simply made. There are chicken noodles that are as good as you have ever had. The mashed potatoes are buttery soft. The desert bar presents a Sophie's choice of deserts but you can take as many as you can eat. Leave the calorie counter at home it is not meant for this place. The ambience understated and plain as is fitting for the Amish. The staff is friendly. There are no waiters. You serve yourself. Good, simple and delicious food is on offer here, nothing else. Definitely worth the trip.
