Grubstake Diner is a historic eatery that offers great food and excellent service. The decor is on the kitschy side, with time-worn photos and paintings on the walls. The linguiça breakfast plate with scrambled eggs is a filling option, and the onion rings are perfectly crispy. The chicken wings are fantastic, especially when paired with beer, and the amazing patty melt is best dipped in honey mustard. The diner also features potato skins and a French dip, which are not to be missed. The strawberry milkshake is decent, and a variation without sprinkles is also popular. The spicy verde sauce on the tables pairs well with savory items. The service is low-key but courteous, with quick service, and dietary restrictions like tree nut allergies are handled well. Vegetarian options are limited, with choices like a grilled cheese sandwich or veggie burger. Overall, Grubstake Diner is worth a stop for a late-night bite to eat, especially if one enjoys Portuguese selections and the classic American diner atmosphere.
