Really nice place. Really cool staff. I had to spend the day parked there with my tractor trailer and they were really cool about it. If I'm in the area I will definitely stop in again

5 years ago this diner was very good. I don't know what happened! Food is not great. Even their hamburgers are a disappointment. Small meat and lots of cheap iceburg lettuce. Bathroom very dirty. Ive noticed very few cars in their lot the past couple of years.

The food was good/ my son had a burger but when he got it I realized he was not asked how he wanted it cooked. Which was fine because it was cooked through. My egg cream was good and his milkshake was very good. The issue for me is the cleanliness. The bathroom was really disgusting. The stall doors were covered in grim and and the door to both the bathroom and back into the restaurant were both incredibly dirty. Like they haven’t been washed in weeks or months. This does not make me want to return.

Service was good sat wherever we wanted in the open section. Served waters as we sat down and had a perfect amount of time until the waitress returned for orders. Food was expected of a diner home town cooked, nothing fancy, exactly what I was craving. Many options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner for a 24-hour place

The same waiter is there . The guy. Always taking his time . Says hello as he walks by . Don't ask about what we would like to drink. Rude too. 5 people here . Waiting 20 minutes for him to come over here . Not a good waiter.

Upon entering the diner, I was greeted warmly by the staff, which made a positive first impression. However, I found it unusual that I was never offered a menu; instead, the staff pointed me to where it was located. This felt a bit impersonal, especially for a first-time visitor.
After reviewing the menu, I decided to keep my order simple and opted for a pastrami omelet without cheese. I was offered water, which was a nice touch.
The food was served in a moderately timely manner. When it arrived, I noticed that the presentation was just okay; it didn’t particularly stand out but was acceptable for a casual breakfast.
Throughout my visit, I noticed a gentleman by the door next to the cashier who seemed to be the owner. His constant presence felt a bit unusual and somewhat awkward at times.
When it came time to pay, I used my card. After signing the receipt, I noticed that the staff paid close attention to the amount I left as a tip, which felt a little intrusive. It’s worth mentioning that if you choose to dine here, be aware that they seem to be quite attentive to tips.
Overall, my experience was a mix of positives and quirks. While the welcoming staff and timely service were appreciated, the absence of a menu and the stressed ambiance left me with mixed feelings.
