We had a great enough time to be willing to drive a 1/2 hour to go back and we will be happy to continue supporting this place for as long as we can.

This place does not deserve the bad reviews that others have given. Have you ever heard the saying Don't knock it til you try it or Never judge a book by its cover? Despite the negative reviews, I decided to check it out because its the clo...
