I think we missed out on something, we need to try this place again but our first experience wasn't the best. Stopped in for supper, our first try at this place. Easy to find. Decor has super cute cafe styled tables and such then the upper part of the wall decor is sports memorabilia. A definite clash of design but something for everyone to enjoy. Our waitress seemee a bit dazed and after her introduction she explained that she just tried an appetizer before coming to our table, she said they were cheese curds not normally on the menu, but so good. We placed our order and included the cheese curds at her recommendation. The pass window for the wait staff and kitchen is in the middle of the dining room so we over heard her and the cook staff loudly discussing her wriiten (our) order then another waitress chimed in. The three loudly discussed but explained to our waitress that they weren't cheese curds rather deep fried macaroni and cheese. When she walked past our table, we thought she'd stop and explain the mishap but no.. so we stopped her and asked if something was wrong. She was confused. We said if they weren't curds as she explained we wanted to pass. She then went back to the pass window yelling that she'd pay for them. Another loud discussion ensued and she told the cook staff that she'd pay for the apps. After yelling several times about the money for the wrongly described apps she dropped them into a Styrofoamcontainer. Cheese curds, fried mac n cheese and jalapeños poppers all different. - they were not what she said when we ordered. THEN Then when she came to our table again they explained this time that they were jalapeño poppers to which the other waitress corrected her. Let's not forget to mention the other lady waitress who glared each time she passed our table, the hostess walking around whole texting on her phone. Just not the best service...Anyway. So our waitress was having an off day-it happens to everyone and yes we tipped more than enough to cover her cost of the app...because yes she made everyone in the entire restaurant know that she had to purchase the wrongly described item. On to the food. We need to know what other customers order here because we missed the mark with our order. Salad pic is here. Lets let the pics tell the story. It was brown and which huge chunks of the lettuce stem. So salad was a bit off... here's hoping our sandwiches were good. He ordered a Philly Cheesesteak with au jus but said it was a bowl with strong Italian seasoning. I had the regular cheesesteak. Meat was cold and the veggies had lots of Italian seasoning. The bread was delicious as were the fries and potato chips. Our experience here wasnt the best. I hope it was just a fluke of a day because they've been in business for a long time so we missed our chance here. Let me know what we should have ordered instead.

3.5 stars really. Why? It's a good hometown Italian restaurant, nothing spectacular, just good food at a good price. Service is friendly, but sometimes slow. Decor is dated and booth seating is really worn. A must have is the potato soup. Delicious. On my recent visit I got the Cod sandwich. It was very hot and very big. I had to cut it in half. It tasted good and I liked it. It came with homemade tartar sauce... which tasted like mayonnaise. And some bland potato salad. My husband got the spaghetti with one meatball. They use fettuccine noodles and he liked it, said the meatball was pretty good also. If you're in town and you're looking for good Italian this is the place to go to. But I wouldn't go out of my way to come here.

We stopped for dinner while driving through Union, MO. What an unexpected gem! The food was delicious and the service was the kind of friendly that makes you feel like a regular. I had the prime rib sandwich on their homemade French bread and fries. It was fantastic and is just as good the next day for lunch.

We love to eat here and Shelia is one of the best waitresses around. Potato soup is the best. I love the meatball sub, Philly cheese steak, and Pizza

Had heard people say their potato soup was good so that's what I ordered. It is a decent restaurant potato soup but they need fresher crackers because the ones I got were stale and took away from the potato soup, my fault I should have tried them before I put them in my soup. I didn't care for the deep fried mushrooms but that might just be a personal preference. My husband got the ravioli which he said was fine. The inside of the restaurant is decorated cute and looked clean.

Our server was great. The restaurant is very clean and openly spaced tables. The food was not as good as previous visits. Pasta was okay, not as great as before, and the plating was sloppy. The olive oil and bread appetizer was not at all like we've had in the past. The bread was small pieces and tough, and the olive oil mixture was really lacking.

From the outside, it seems like it would be white linens and black tie 👔...we didn't visit here for the first 3 years we lived here because of that. This is really another great little locally owned diner. The inside is packed with loyal patrons who knew this already, and now we know too! Great food, friendly staff!!

Mom and I come in every time we are out and about. The food is always very delicious.
