What I ordered: I ordered one of the daily specials: grilled turkey with Muenster and tomato, with a side of potato salad. It was very good! The rye bread they used was light and grilled perfectly. The potato salad had a nice sweet hint to it...with onion and mustard too.
My companion ordered a cheeseburger and thought it was pretty good. The fries were crispy and were plentiful.
Service: Friendly and fast. Our server boasted about everything on the menu and stated that she had worked their 20 years! Senior citizens also receive 10% of their bill.
Overall Impression: Fast, friendly and inexpensive! I'd like to get my hands on a breakfast menu and try it out. Not sure why this place isn't open for dinner?
The cod is always fresh and light. You can't be the prices or service. I LOVE IT!
