    Friendly wait staff.  When I went through I had the biscuits and gravy.
    Hot and smooth, just the right road meal.
    Try their pie.

    What do I say about a little dive diner? Well they tried.  But in my opinion I wished for something better.  

    We walked in with no hello or greeting.  So I guess we just seat ourselves? Ok.  As I looked around, I certainly noticed it must be just a place for locals to sit and socialize.  It's definitely not a place to go out of the way for.  

    Their 'buffet' consisted of 8 items.  Eggs, bacon, sausage, French toast, biscuits, gravy, potatoes and cinnamon rolls.  $7.95 for this? This Vegas girl was disappointed being accustomed to huge overwhelming buffets.  I was going with a man's motto - size doesn't matter.  

    Unfortunately the food wasn't too great either.  Bread items were dry and other items had an old stale taste.  I would have guessed it but I wanted them to prove me wrong.  

    Restrooms were so dirty that I had to warn the other girls in our group not to use them.  I felt really sick to my stomach after that.  Gross.

    Service, Food, cleanliness- Nope Nope Nope.

    I was actually quite surprised by this place. Wife used to stop with her parents on the way to Duluth. We were headed up to Pelican Lake for a family wedding and decided to stop here as Uncle Louies in Duluth was closed for Labor Day.

    Well.. good stop. We both had the special, which was wild rice sausage with eggs/hash browns. Eggs were perfectly cooked to order, hash browns were NOT frozen and homemade. They even gave them to me extra crispy the way I ordered. Wild ride sausage was tasty and had great flavor. Coffee hot and good. Good service (not real talkative).

    If only they had homemade bread for the toast..

    Good stop, I'd stop again if I was driving by.

    This is the must eat for Bog travelers.

    March's Caramel Pecan Pie is to die for. Breakfast time puts you in a very friendly atmosphere where the smiles and service abound.
    Highly recommend the Rice Sausage plate for breakfast. The club sandwich at lunch is quite filling.
