“This is a surprising good little cafe for Breakfast or Lunch. The buffet has great options including meats, sides and desserts which all taste very good. The salad bar is fresh and absolutely delicious. The buffet is all you can eat includes the salad bar. Add your soft drink and get an excellent bargain with a lot of good food for about $16. The outside looks deceiving give it a try you won't be unhappy.”
