Ill never come back here again, I waited over 20 minutes at 6am for my food to come out cold, and I was the only one ordering food. I have no idea how this place has won any awards. This place is tragic, never again will I come here or suggest anyone ever stop here. I absolutely wish this wasn't my first terrible experience here but it's not.

Very small. We waited to be seated and then waited a very long time for our food, which was less than standard dinner fair. Would not return! Sorry.

It was the 1st time we had been there, didn't understand the seating rules, and 2 ladies were mad because we chose an open both. They had been at the counter, we didn't know they were waiting for the booth. They were rude, we said take our booth there were 2 that emptied at the same time. The servers were very nice and smoother things over with the people. Food was delicious and not expensive at all .

From the outside; this doesn’t look like your traditional diner. The inside however, is as cute and classic as you can get. Service was friendly and the menu had a nice selection of traditional favorites and some fun specials. I went with a chili cheese omelette and it came with home fries and toast.
I did go in Veteran’s Day so it was packed. I sat at the counter but hopefully next time I can get a table. My seat was at the end of the counter and so there was a lot of back and forth with food going by and dishes being cleared. The wait for my food was around 40 minutes. This felt a bit too longer even with the crowd. The prices were great for the portions and I love this type of local gem. I’ll be bald because I want to try some eggs Benedict or maybe something off the specials menu!!

I did not see a public restroom, but besides that complaint, the establishment was good.

Absolutely fell in love with this diner. Small but feels like home. Staff was very courteous and a pleasure to deal with. I had the corned beef hash combo and the homemade hash they make is phenomenal! Some of the best I've ever had. The home fries were seasoned beautifully and the eggs were perfect. I cannot recommend this place enough. The place is decorated in all kinds of Americana with many pieces of vintage Coke items and model classic cars. We are visiting from NC and the food felt like home. I will be back before we head back home.

I loved absolutely everything about this place with one exception. Notice I still give service 4 *s. This place is small in a cozy way and so a wait is expected. We got seated at an open 2 top table as we were smaller than the waiting groups. This was great. Coffee was amazing and came quick and so did top ups, it's a good thing too because here's where we had our only issue. After ordering food it took literally 47 minutes to get it. Breakfast food. I totally understand they were busy and also understand that they do take out but we were discussing leaving as our did came to the table. Saved by the bell so to speak. Otherwise the food was fantastic not 50 min wait fascistic tho mind you.
