We had lunch there today. They had a steady flow of patrons in and out as we are. It was one of the busier restaurants I've seen since Covid.

The sauerkraut balls were great. Mushroom soup was nice. House salad with white french and crumbled blue was a good combination. Burger was well prepared and cooked to temp. It was served with a mountain of house made fries which were nicely crispy and delicious.

They were playing blues music over the sound system, which was a nice change here in Akron. Usually it's rock and roll.

My only complaint was that the server kept removing partially complete dishes while we were still eating. Not to the server, please ask if you can take a plate before grabbing on the way by.
