This family owned operation also been able to grow thanks to assistance from the small business administration. 

Officials with the SBA and city of West Allis toured four food a dining destinations on Friday morning that represent the city's ongoing transformation from an industrial town to a city offering something for everyone. 

 "We've always been that community at the center of the Milwaukee area, a community that has a very strong vision today.  And we want to re-position our community.  We are seeing growth from everything from Main Street to Wall Street,” said Patrick Schloss/West Allis Community Dev.

Small business Saturday is November 26th, the Saturday after Thanksgiving.
