This place is a gem! Don't miss it. Great atmosphere, decore and CLEAN!! We arrived and the entrance is a bit confusing, but the restaurant is worth it. It was pretty quiet in the restaurant. Leland was our server. He was fantastic. Not only were the portion sizes huge and the food tasty but the prices were very reasonable. I ordered two meals because I thought I would eat one and take one home for dinner. There was so much food that I had to take both home. The dessert was really tasty. As you can see from the receipts, the prices are great. So many good selections. We found this place by happenstance and it was so worth it. My friend and I were very very happy. Big shout out to Leland who made our experience fun and memorable. When we were in the area we will definitely be back.

This is a very fresh feeling restaurant! It's clean and bright, with cheerful staff, and great food. There's lots of room for any size of group, and there is a nice patio on the side with a view of the golf course/park area.

Incredible! Went with my parents for lunch. 2 people in our group can’t have gluten (one intolerant and one celiac). 3/4 of the menu is or can be made gluten free. Huge portions. Couldn’t even tell the meal was gluten free. Amazing prices. Friendly clean atmosphere. Dedicated gluten free fryers. Will be back - well worth the 1.5 hour drive for a meal out that I don’t need to worry about safely eating.

Food, service, and atmosphere was amazing! Loved all of the classy unique options on the menu. The Special Grilled Cheese was delicious with the variety of flavours, and the portion sizes were all huge… so definitely great value for each meal. Had to save half for leftovers they were so big, but whey saw the homemade cheesecakes and pies we had to treat ourselves to try the strawberry rhubarb cheesecake and the butterscotch pie. Will definitely go back on our next drive through Carmen!

Nice place, the staff was friendly and the outdoor patio was lovely. Nice view of the golf course across the street. Food was good and there were very many gluten free options, almost the whole menu actually. I recommend and will return if I'm ever in Camen for lunch again.

Had supper with a friend and sampled 4 of the menu items. All were presented well and tasted very good. They have several homemade desserts. We had the peanut butter chocolate cheesecake that was delicious. Music was playing quietly in the background. The cook came out to see how our meal was. Great service by our server.

What a great quiet place to have lunch. Almost all food can be made gluten free. Fresh and filling. Very reasonably priced for the amount of food. Thank you for the birthday cheesecake..homemade! Will return!
