The rustic joint is open from Wednesday to Sunday for lunch and for dinner, so plan accordingly to enjoy some of the best darn cookin’ around.
Prior to renovations, the walls were dotted with taxidermy animals along with memorabilia, and the dining space had modest seating.

However, the newly renovated dining area features an open floor plan with a trendy design. Perhaps not as charming, but you'll still receive the same great service and even better food.
Moreover, it's more spacious, which allows for a comfortable area to enjoy your meal. In addition, there is outside seating if you prefer to enjoy the fresh air.
