We stopped here for lunch last month while researching our family tree(the Wylies, Eastons and Hawkins). What a pleasant surprise this little gem was. Though our waitress was on her first week working there, she was quite attentive and knowledgeable! I had the Reuben on Rye and my wife had the grilled chicken salad, both were excellent. As we were leaving I asked the hostess all about the old bank building the restaurant has been in since 1980 and she showed me some pictures old Elizabeth hanging on the wall - one of which was a picture of my family's Wylie Brothers Hardware building, which still sits across the street. Instantly I made friends with long, longtime Elizabeth residents the Rockwells. Thank you Lynn Rockwell McHolme for your hospitality, and an excellent meal!
