As our community battles the Corona virus we have made changes to our dinner menu in an attempt to offer great food that travels well in take out boxes and family platters.  We have simplified our menu and removed some of our favorite seafood offerings in order to adjust to the changing times but promise to have our full menu available as soon as we are able.  All of our entrees below are also available "family style" which come with a large mixed green salad, bread and butter and are meant to feed a family of 4-6 people.  Please call us to ask about daily specials like Taco Tuesday, Fish Fryday, Turkey Dinner Sunday and Prime Rib Saturday. Thank for your continued support!
