My wife raved about her meatloaf with creamy mashed potatoes. The meatloaf was smothered in a deeply rich sauce that would pair easily with any high-end beef cut.

I ordered a burger with bacon and American cheese, mayo, and red onions on both of our visits. This is the best burger I have had. I can’t quite put my finger on it, which is troubling, but It just tastes amazing. The flavor is that organic free range beefy taste that seemed super fresh. I thought about it many times since our last visit, I think it is just one of those times where I was just the right amount of hungry and it was just the right amount of flavor. Even with my expectations high for our second lunch it was just as good. It’s one of those times where you encounter food that is so good you’re sad it’s over after your last bite.

For dessert my wife enjoyed a nice apple pie.

For my dessert I was all over this Chocolate Mouse pie.

Our waitress Clarissa was just wonderful. The noise level was low on both our visits and the prices are very reasonable for the quality food you get. If you are anywhere near Fredericksburg, VA it’s worth stopping in for a meal, you really won’t be disappointed.
