1st time here..setup is very weird. We had to walk to through the restaurant just to get to the host stand. Would make more sense to have a host stand I don’t know by the entrance?? We were put in a poorly lit back corner. Super crammed. Definitely not a lot of space to move around especially when a 6-8 top is right behind you. Kinda pricey. Food was good, rooks and the strawberry honey butter were the best part and service was ok. For sure a super old sketchy building. Bathroom floor was so slick. Like fall risk slick. The fans don’t help the floor it they are caked in dust and barely blowing air. Not very clean.

Great food and service. They also have a great music venue upstairs. This place is a must, if you’re visiting Cape. Such a historic place.

The food was delicious! One serving of a side is actually enough for 2 people to eat. The staff is always on top of their job, coming back consistently to check on customers. I will definitely visit this restaurant again when I go back to Cape Girardeau.

Love the atmosphere and nostalgia of this restaurant. The food is excellent all around. For it’s very fairly priced and get more than you paid for. We had the brisket/pimento sandwich and chef salad which were amazing! You can definitely tell there’s lot of thought and care put into each item on the menu without fluff.

My fiancé and I were seated in the corner behind the hostess counter. We watched 3 other parties be seated as well. 2 of those parties were waited on while no one came to our table to wait on us. We got up and left and no one said a single word. We were not sure if it was incompetence or because we are a gay couple. This was our first time ever stopping here. What a disappointment.

Ordered the Po Boy and it was HUGE and tasty. I added Cole slaw to it as well. The port chips were fresh and delicious. The Blackberry Cobbler was perfect, not too tart and not too sweet. Excellent value too! The service was pretty top notch too. Will DEFINITELY be coming back.

Always looking for unique local spots to eat when out of my hometown. This was a great place to eat by the river with a view of the many murals. Also seemed very popular for the added ice cream window.

We went for our anniversary lunch and everything was ok. Service was ok. Food was ok. Hubby had the prime rib sammy and onion rings. He paid extra for cheese and peppers. The cheese was invisible and there maybe was a tablespoon of peppers. The prime rib was thick cut not shaved as explained by our server. I had the catfish and potatoes. The only winner was the catfish. It was tasty. The place is old and needs a good cleaning. A lot of dust bunnies on the ceiling just waiting to drop in your food. Our server was nice just didn’t check on us very much. We didn’t have our drinks refilled for the longest time. We were all excited after reading the reviews however for us this experience left a lot to be desired. Probably won’t be coming back.

We were disappointed to not be able to order at the window, but that was OK. I was delighted to discover huckleberry ice cream, something I have never seen outside of the west.
