  Stopped in for dinner on a saturday evening about 8pm.  The dining room was pretty empty with only one or two tables occpied.   Overall the food was ok, but ot a lot of thought to the menu.  Was hoping to try the prime rib but was told it was sold out.   Got a steak instead.   Was cooked medium like i ordered it.  Not the best strip steak, but not expensive either at around 13 bucks.  Came with mashed ( instant) and corn.  Wife ordered alfrado.  Was also ok, tasted like jar sauce so nothing mind blowing.   Service was friendly and fast.  The interior was nice, clean,  and spacious.

  If you happen to be in the area and are looking for a decent selection of beer,  you might want to stop here.  Maybe after the tractor pull at the fair grounds. There had to be a good dozen beer taps covering everything from the lite beers to craft brews.  There is also a pool table in the middle of the dining area.  We decided to sit in the bar area where the tables were smaller.  Several TVs are viewable along with Lottery Quick Draw monitors. I think I also saw some video games in the back of the dining room. Bikers welcomed.
  
  We started with an appetizer called Cordon Blue Balls.  They were pieces of chicken combined with blue-cheese, breaded and rolled into 5 balls and deep-fried.  They came with a dipping sauce and not only were different but good.
  
  I've been here twice and only had beer with sandwiches.  I've not tried their pizza or entrees. There was a special this night of buy one pizza and another could be purchased for half-price.  We saw a number of customers coming in to get pizza to go.
  
  I brought my wife here because I recalled that I had a decent burger last year and she had a craving for a burger tonight.  She was disappointed with the half-pound burger's flavor... or should I say lack of flavor.  Otherwise it was juicy, cooked properly to her requested medium-rare, looked huge, came on a nice fresh, soft sesame roll and had lettuce, tomato, onion and cheese.  But there was no grilled flavor or any real flavor from the meat.  I agreed it was not what I recalled from my first visit.  If this is still to your liking, they also offer a one-pound burger!!!
  
  I had the sandwich special that was thinly sliced prime rib with american cheese.  It was OK.  It also came on a fresh sesame roll.  Both sandwiches also came with hand-cut fries.  I welcomed the fact that the fries were not overly salted.  In fact, my wife actually added a bit of salt to both her fries and burger.
  
  Service was friendly and efficient.  Our bill before tip was under $30.
  
  They have a 30 second video on FaceBook.
