If you are a biscuit and gravy person, you have to come in and judge for yourself, but they are currently the talk of the town. There's not much to the diner-style decor because it's all about real quality food that real people enjoy. Pancakes, bacon, sausage, ham, boar, eggs any way you want, potatoes and grits is what's for brunch. Breakfast is served all day, every day. House specials include corn bread rancheros with black beans, salsa, pico and eggs topped with cheese and sour cream. Even more adventurous is the slow-cooked pork green chili and grits dish, so the food is not at all boring.
