Portions. Oh my the portions. We strolled in there around 8:30 last night. We ordered meat loaf. It came with two large slices of meatloaf together with mashed potatoes and gravy and mixed vegetables, which included broccoli and cauliflower carrots. But as an appetizer that was included with the meal was clam chowder, which was absolutely spectacular. We could’ve made a meal on that alone and then they gave us a large slice of garlic toast. The service was top-notch and the atmosphere was fantastic. They could not do enough for us. There are only a few restaurants open after 8 PM in Oakdale and I am glad because I probably would never have found this spot. I would highly recommend you try this place as you will never forget it and you will definitely not go away hungry. It’s local and unforgettable

Spent the night in a neighboring hotel so the restaurant location was perfect. While service was slow, the food was delicious! Will go back when we next visit Oakdale.

Last minute stop at this place and had no expectations really but was pleasantly surprised by the great service we’ve received but even more so by the amazing dishes. We had delish zucchini fries as a starter and salad and grilled salmon filet and a burger and sweet potato fries to follow. Portion sizes were huge. Highly recommendable.

We are tourists from New Zealand and this was by far the best meal we’ve had on the road. The salmon was spot on, veges, salad, kids had the kids pizza, portion sizes were huge!! The staff were genuine and friendly, this diner experience has brightened our trip!

Had dinner a couple of Saturdays back... Very hot outside... But extremely cool and comfortable inside at the counter. My wait staff was Brittney. She did an excellent job guiding me through the menu and suggestive selling. Had a veggie sandwich.... Very healthy! I'll do the prime rib next trip. Stop by.... Easy on/off highway. The restaurant also has a club room. Clean restrooms. Reminds me of Lyon's Restaurant back in the day. Stop by and say hi to Britt! Ron

First time coming here to this establishment, and it's very cozy rustic atmosphere. If you want to feel the country and the friendly hospitality of the employees. I advise you to come here. Their food is feeling, the restaurant is clean, and it has enough seating. Just make sure to keep an eye on their times there open, and closed. The prices are right, for the amount of food you buy.

ALWAYS a good meal! Breakfast, lunch, dinner and even dessert; they are alllll delicious and plentiful! You will leave full and with a smile in your heart, belly and face! There are some really great staff! From the wait staff; the bus people and the cooks! They all are smiling, friendly and clean! You feel home and welcomed when you sit down and get the delicious cup of coffee and chat with the staff, other diners and guests. Small hometown feel; but still welcoming to those who are passing through or here for events. Come get a great meal and refill not only your belly but your heart. You’ll be back meal after meal. There is plenty of free, safe and well lit parking, as well as ADA compliance parking and seating. They have a nice bar attached to the restaurant that is always lively and seems like a good spot as well.

Really sweet servers who work here! Delicious desserts & a full menu of food! Comfy feels like you're at home. Also, right next door to Motel 6.
