The ribs are fantastic and very cheap. The Caesar salad is crispy and fresh. The owner is the only employee and is very busy. But he gets your meal to you fairly quickly despite being alone. The restaurant has long operating hours so the owner works very hard. He's down to earth and very personable. The decor is not fancy at all. It's full of locals. Beers are around $3.50 to $4.00. I've been there 3 times and I will return, especially for the ribs.

The ribs were pretty good! The owner is nice. A few locals along the bar. A place I thought I'd never go in, turns out I'm quite comfortable there! Will come back.

The best ribs I've had in a while. Beats any rib fest around. Crispy on the outside and fall off the bone tender meat on the inside. Along with golden crispy fries made the perfect meal. My partner and I shared the full rack platter and was plenty full. Definitely really great bang for your buck! Lone chef and a hidden gem I would definitely return to. On the outside it doesn't look like much and even seems a little boarded up but once inside, a retro looking diner filled with regulars. The chef and owner works surprisingly long hours but still great food and extremely hospitable service. A must visit for sure!!
