Great service by Luke. Good food and great old diner like atmosphere with country music. Enjoyed looking at all the historic LAPD pictures while eating. Clean restrooms. Plenty of parking. Thank you!

Excellent place with great food and friendly people. There are two retail shops next to it, where you can buy LAPD uniforms, accessoires or any merchandise (like mugs).
