Apparently Thursdays only they have a tenderloin lunch special. The breading was crispy and delicious, meat was well seasoned and tender. Fries were ok, should have dumped the gravy on them. We will definitely come back. They have a solid selection at the bar, too. Many beers on tap and a good selection of whiskey.
