I was excited to eat here, but our experience was disappointing. We travel a lot and I am not hard to please and rarely leave negative reviews. This was the worst service I’ve had at a restaurant in a long time. I don’t know if our server was new or what but he was awful. He came up to the table with waters (great!) and said something about “oh you wanted an apple juice, right?” I told him no, we hadn’t ordered anything yet. No problem yet, confusion happens. We order milkshakes and food. The food comes. The milkshakes don’t. We eat most of our food. I finally realize our milkshakes are sitting on the counter where the food comes out, melting, undelivered. We finally ask some other server walking by if we can get our milkshakes that have been sitting up there. They arrive. They should have been remade. My cherry was 6 feet under. We drink our warm, melted milkshakes. Now we’re waiting for the bill. Never saw our server again. Again, the hostess walks by and my husband asks if we can get our bill. She informs us that we just go up front to pay and they have it all on the computer, no bill needed. I guess you’re supposed to know that via telepathy. Wish we had just gone to Johnny Rocket’s across the street.

Had the grilled chicken entree and it was so incredibly delicious I gave them a clean plate in return. It is so nice while traveling to actually find a decent healthy and perfect meal. Especially for a diner who's monikers are usually greasy spoons but definitely not here. Clean sanitary and in business for a reason for all these years and many more to come based on what I experienced. Everything from the location to the history plus the incredible food and service was beyond 5 stars. Needless to say I would be a weekly repeat customer if I lived closer. Thank you to the entire staff for the excellent service atmosphere and perfect dining experience.

Chicken pot pie is a joke. You're going to regret getting it.

Costco Hot Dog and any frozen chicken pot pie is better than this.

It opened at 1030am on the day of my visit.

Food looked bigger in photos, tasted miserable, not the best. Service was Alright, kind workers. Atmosphere has a 50s feel to it. Could be better.

The food was good the first time we went the second time ..my fried chicken was so gross I only ate the chicken pieces in the crust. Very disappointing because the plate was $28
The service was good and the other people I went with they said their food was good . One had the turkey dinner and the other had the BLT salad. I don't think I'll be back though.

My husband and I took our granddaughters there. The kids meals are brought out in car boxes. So cute. The atmosphere of an old time dinner was fun. The food was good.

Had the cheeseburger. The burger itself was very processed and clearly a frozen burger. The fries were so so.Fresh bun.
