    I love Rays - same cooks and servers for EVER! Food is good and atmosphere is friendly. I like to eat in the bar. Everything is made fresh. You got to be country to get Rays - it a cool little place. Yes there is smoking in the bar.

    Great local bar/restaurant. Good buffet at reasonable price. Only place. In the county to get a drink of hard. Liquor. The problem with this spot is they close very early. Sometimes they aren't even open on a Saturday night. Erratic hours. Washrooms need cleaning.
