My husband is the tenderloin guy. He thought it had a good flavor, nice crust and cook; he prefers a little thinner sandwich but enjoyed it. Looked good to me. Not overly big, perfect size, the bun was larger than average bun, something to hold on to! I had the French dip burger and I’m going to say, it was the Star of the night, sooo good. Check the menu for details and pricing. Our waitress was attentive and friendly, nice stop!

Breading was very thick and crunchy. Could have been seasoned a bit more but pretty darn good. Meat was tender and very good.
