"The food was really really good at least the almost world famous Reuben sandwich was really really good. My wife got the turkey sandwich which is okay but when she tasted my sandwich the almost world-famous Reuben she had to order another sandwich just like mine to take home for dinner."

"I'm posting only because one of my favorite MST3K movies they riffed was filmed a scene at the location back in the 1970s. The film is called "A Touch of Satan". I'm sure the new business has lots of yummy things. Take care."
