Stopped in this place for an Italian sandwich and I definitely do not regret it! The establishment is next to a cute lake with benches to enjoy your meal at. Parking lot is a little tight and dangerous for the road it's on but we'll worth it. They have many different options on the menu to choose from and the owner was very friendly! I will definitely be returning and excited to try something new.
