If you are in the neighborhood of the Eye Glass Museum, or anywhere in Sabae actually, and you are craving American-style food, head on over to Tommy Empire. As you open the door and step inside, you'll feel like you are entering the America of yesteryear. With authentic Americana hanging all over the walls, your time will be well spent looking at everything as you wait for your food to be prepared. The fare is great and ranges from burgers and fries to BBQ ribs, pizza and lemonade. Finally, the staff here is very friendly, and everyone speaks English. Enjoy!
