We ate in at this cafe for lunch. We ordered a philly cheese steak, a crab and avocado quesadilla,
and a portobello flat panini. We were pleasantly surprised at the varied menu.
They have meals that include a drink and fries.
The prices for our meals were 12-14 dollars.
The food was very good and the staff pleasant.
We would recommend this cafe .

Lana was our really cute and helpful order taker. The menu is huge, it was hard to narrow it down but I ended up with a buffalo chicken quesadilla which was amazing! My husband had the Philly cheesesteak, which he really enjoyed. My sister-in-law had the ham turkey and Swiss sub and she really enjoyed that. they both had the homemade chips. We each got a cookie because they looked delicious . A white chocolate macadamia nut however was not cooked inside. Other than that we will definitely return for more yummy food.

Clean, well kept dinning room, tables outside on a patio too. Large menu, but menu board has too small of font to read easily, but paper menus available at counter. Chicken strips are excellent, carrot sticks as a healthy side. House chips are good. Mahimahi sandwich is excellent.

Ate here with my family and our party of ten. Chose the restaurant because they advertise as having gluten-free options. It’s even printed on their windows that face the parking lot. She first ordered a burger on a GF bun and was told they only had GF sliced bread and GF tortilla. No biggie. She switched her order to a GF quesadilla. See picture for the burnt mess that they served. When I brought to their attention that it was burnt and asked them to recook it, the manager (??) told me it was not burnt and that the tortillas do that as soon as they put them on the grill. Regardless of what the tortillas do on the grilled, anyone of the street could look at it and tell it was burnt. I asked for suggestions for another item and was told I could get my money back but they didn’t have time to cook her anything else because “they were slammed.” Mind you, they were slammed with my fa mily’s order. There were only two other people in the restaurant at the time. Seriously, was my child supposed to sit there with no food and watch everyone else eat? The icing on the cake was when I was told to “be happy that they even offer anything gluten-free on the menu.” The most awful *customer service* I’ve ever experienced. And the food was awful and was overpriced. Stay away!

Ok, I love the food here. Unfortunately, there are some issues. One being, I noticed and brought to the mgt. attention when they first moved to the new location, the fact when you go to pick up your food, there are "To Go" customers waiting right there over it...breathing on it, checking it out . Saw it firsthand today. During a pandemic. Eww. Next, I was all geared up to get onion rings, or even curly fries, but they have deleted both from the menu. Sigh. First time trying their burgers, though, and it didn't disappoint, I think the grilling of the bun makes it extra good, so please don't stop that. And their cookies....worth 5 stars alone. Just find a better way to not have my food sitting up there for everyone to breathe on.

the food is mediocre at best and they could not get the drink on time. had to stand at the counter for a while because they "forgot" the order. They did not seem all that concerned about it at all. They also want their tip before they serve you ..... not a good choice i wish i had not tipped at all

The food here was very good. I had a Philly Cheese Steak sandwich with chips and my wife had a Chicken Quesadilla. We had a couple of cokes. It was quite crowded (since it right after church) but they got the food out rather quickly. If paying with a credit card it brings up a tip screen starting at 18%. I mistakenly hit that button. Not sure why they expect tips since you order and pick up at a window and clean you own tables. You need to hit the "other" button when paying. Lunch was $33. Yikes.

This place was AMAZING! Fresh made to order food nothing frozen here. Should be the #1 restaurant. We had the Ultimate Italian Grinder and Wills Prime both with french fries. So fresh so good! So glad we only live in the next town. We’ll definitely be back.

We came during rush hour at lunch time, found a table and had a great CPT. T's Beef 51 Mustang wrap as a combo (dinks\ and very good FFs) and Aviator Club Panini. Both were very tasty and large enough for dinner. You order at the counter and pick up your food. Luckily on this cold day we found a table inside. It's a place to put on the list for Blairsville.

Aviator is the best sandwich place in Blairsville. Their hot quesadillas, paninis, and burgers are amazing! I recommend others to go there all the time.

This is one of those hidden gems in Blairsville. We had both the Italian Panini and the Ham, Swill & Ranch wrap (may now be a special order item). Both outstanding. Will go back many times.
