Lovely people, they pay a living wage so no tipping. The atmosphere is great, service is great, but the food is always disappointing. Bland, Midwestern boring. I was excited to see beautiful biscuits in the display case, only to bite into unsalted things. I literally used a salt shaker on biscuits. I did this twice, so it wasn't an anomaly. Other foods also required salting, but still lacked flavor.
Funny thing is, I want to go back, but I won't.
