It was my favorite lunch spot in the city. Great conversation with the owners and knowing I was supporting a Ma and Pop small business place was a plus. I'd walk in and grab a plate of some of the best food in the city, have a seat, and watch the sheep in cars wrapped around Burger King for 20 minutes during their lunch break under the guise of fast food. Best kept secret in the city.
