Hubs and I try really hard to only eat out at locally owned, Mom and Pop type restaurants/bars. We are so excited to have another choice, especially since we live in St Joseph and went to school here. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming. I love that they leave the bottle of water at your table. The owners are wonderful and seem to really care about your satisfaction. The wait staff are knowledgeable and attentive. The food? Well, it's darn good! Our favorites are the Wheelhouse Burger, the cheese curds, which are made from Ludwigs cheese, 10 minutes east of us, and the fries with the tomatillo sauce/catsup. There is no salt/pepper on the table because this food is freshly prepared and properly seasoned during cooking. You don't need it and won't miss it. But don't YOU miss a chance to have a nice meal, in a cute place, with great owners.
