This is the best kept secret place to dine! We loved it so much that we had to comeback on the last day of our trip to eat again 😊 The service,food and the atmosphere is amazing !!!

Stopped her for lunch on a whim. The kids loved being able to take picture and the French fries. I enjoyed the lovely memorabilia and the tasty food as well. Nice small place to stop for lunch.

My family and I ate here tonight and it was amazing. The workers were so sweet and offered to take our photos and got the best angles for us without us asking. Service was friendly and fast. The food was outstanding and truly gave it a classic diner experience and feel. The ice cream sundae is a 10/10 and so are the burgers. We will definitely be back before leaving.

Enjoyed my time while reviewing the menu, waiting and eating my food. Good vibes, all
The best oldies on videos. The staff are so welcoming, and made me feel like family. I had the tenders and fries, perfectly fried and seasoned. Will be back at least once before I leave Waikiki!

It's a 1950's style diner. You go here for the 1950's atmosphere. The walls are covered with memorabilia.

The food is the normal fare that you would find at any greasy spoon throughout the mainland. Honestly, it is comforting to have a place like this around. It reminds me of dinners out in the 70's. Yea, mastalgia's kicking in.

The service is pleasant but not great. Because they are shorthanded, like every place else. You walk up to a counter to order and the food takes forever.

I went here specifically to play the pinball machine but it was broken.

No photos I don't want to spoil the experience.

Did anyone mention that it's the cleanest eatery in town? And they have a $4 happy hour beer?
