Back in the 1940s, a restaurant named Lina's had been operating in this location, bringing in customers from far and wide to taste her amazing meals. She even entertained President Eisenhower, giving him a friendly birthday paddling, as per Lena's tradition. In 1974, she closed for retirement, and in 1994, she sold the restaurant to local restaurateurs who brought back this farmhouse on the hill as the restaurant you see today.

The main draw of this beautiful restaurant on the hill is their home cooked meals that could have come out of any family kitchen. There's something special about these dishes that gives them that little extra kick of flavor. If you ask us, we think it's love.

The menu covers many Kansas favorites, ranging from large salads to fried fish or steak dinners. We love the chicken fried steak and their catfish the most.

Of course, any small town restaurant trip should include dessert, and their generous slices of homemade pie or cheesecake are always a good choice. Whatever they've made, you can be sure it's delicious. Make sure you order it before your meal, and save room for a sweet treat as you eat.
