The food is awful today the pancakes had to be recouped with an order they were gummy and sticky inside not done the eggs appear to be not real eggs that were scrambled soft they were nasty and hard on the inside the turkey patty sausage patty was great. The second order which was hash browns and New York steak the steak was dry hard you could even slice it with a steak knife my husband was saying we never ever encountered anything like this when a person orders their food they want to eat it right then and there once it's prepared not have to send it back and wait a whole another 30 minutes again his pancakes weren't good they were more better than the first set but oh my God and the management that they have there MANISH was very disrespectful he did not want to honor my senior discount which he was told it should have been added up as a senior everybody knows who we are we coming there very pleasant then coming there for some years never encountered anything like this he was uncooperative did not want to give the senior discount just one situation after another and because it was mentioned to him that the food was not of the best nor like it should have been he wanted to ask that because I complained about the food that I don't come back there no more now what kind of management and place has this males restaurant turned into it has gone down to the ground I'm from San Francisco I've been going to the original males when it existed in San Francisco and to have to come to Antioch and get treated like this as a downplay for the Mills corporation and I will be reporting to corporate this is awful I hope no one else experiences this the cook they have there is terrible. None of the food was done correctly and to try to charge me $49 for breakfast that wasn't even edible or to sit there and have to have it redone when the order should have been done correctly

This review is for the beginning of December 2023. Came here with some friends and I was not impressed. I thought Mel's Diner would be good here but not so. SERVICE: 1/5 Waitress was that friendly. She spoke to me from the middle part of the restaurant when I went into the restaurant standing in the front by the front door. I would've think that she could've walked up closer to me to ask me how many people in my party. While I was walking to the table where I was going to dine at, she asked me what I wanted to drink. This is a different kind of service to me. It's very casual. FOOD: 2/5 Hot Roast Beef Open Faced Sandwich $14.99 Good amount of roast beef which are thinly sliced. Also came with the sandwich are broccoli and mashed potato and gravy. Brown gravy was also on top of the roast beef sandwich and to me the gravy was like goo. It was very thick. I do not recommend this meal.

It’s a chain. Quality seems to have gone down post Covid but still worth going if not only for the atmosphere.

The place was deserted and it felt like we were the only ones who came here. Food was good and the waitress was friendly.

service was decent attentive. My daughter ordered a veggie burger it was so dry and bland she sent it back. i had a bacon burger also dry i think they just over cook the meat.

Had breakfast here and Evone was our waitress. She took our order by memory and she got it perfectly. Food was wonderful. Had a Denver omelet and had a California omelet.
