Milkshakes were good but super gimmicky. The food really missed the mark. Mushy waffles, cold Mac and cheese. Decor was super obnoxious. Like why have a 7 tier chandelier in a diner like this..

Love this place. It's on my top 5 places to eat in CT. The food is great and the milkshakes and desserts are huge!
As a picky eater I was disappointed when I asked bagel toasted eggs scrambled and this is what they gave me. I had no time to ask for the order to be remade as I am at work. Not a bad sandwich but I like my food how I like my food. Inside was extremely clean and staff was super nice

Do not come here if you don’t be waiting for eggs for more then an hour and not be greeted at all when you walk through the door and have sit yourself basically.
How did a whole family who ordered burgers and bigger meals and got here 20 minutes after us get food first and all me and my boyfriend ordered were eggs? Ridiculous

This place blows, service was the worst I’ve ever seen, I gave this place a third try after having bad experiences both prior visits. Last visit a waitress made my partner cry over a plate of food. The first visit they messed up our entire order. This visit we waited over an hour for food which never showed up so we decided to leave and forget it. This was after we waited to even be acknowledged by the rude staff at the door as well as many other people at the time. We were being listened in on and one of the staff members didn’t think I saw the dirty look they gave me right after I made a comment about the door wait. I’m good, I will never be returning!

Worst experience of my life, if I could give 0 stars I would. I will never come back here, have tried to give it three chances now and each time is worse than the last. This latest experience, the front was busy and we waited more than 20 minutes for a buzzer, which we only received after I said something. Three other groups had walked in after us, and until the third group nobody was acknowledged. At which point, I stated everyone else standing here had been waiting to be acknowledged and they said they thought we all already had buzzers. I have bright green hair, I’m pretty hard to mistake for someone else. We waited, the girl at the front seemed new, and we tried to brush it off. Finally, we got seated. The table and booth had not been wiped off, we wiped crumbs off our seat before sitting down. There were flies all over the place. We got a bar drink, a soda, and put in our food order. We were waiting almost an hour, and never saw any food. Once, our waitress told us they were plating our food and that it’d be right out. Ten minutes later? No food. We watched multiple tables around us fill up and then leave, and we still did not get our orders. The entire time, we got attitude from all of the staff members. They had been standing around our table, giving us dirty looks, and when we would say something to each other (for example about the food taking so long), that’s when someone would come up to us. We knew they had been listening to us. We were sat in front of a mirrored mosaic and could literally see them without turning our heads. Finally, fed up after being at this restaurant for an hour and a half - mind you we ordered French toast and pancakes - we went to the front and asked to speak to a manager as we were no longer interested in waiting on this food, and wanted to pay for our drinks and leave. We got more attitude at the front, from multiple servers, the manager then comped our drinks (around $15), and we left. We kept being told that they were quite busy as their excuse for the service and attitude- meanwhile many tables sat empty. The ONLY reason this place is still in business is because they got internet famous over some milkshakes. Don’t waste your time and money, there are way better spots around here.

Food and service were great and our waiter was nice enough to jump my friend's car! I can't stop thinking about how amazing the milkshake was. Definitely on my favorites list after one visit.
