We experienced discrimination at this diner by two rude door greeting hostesses. When we brought it to this Diners attention it was ignored. They also deleted our comment on their greasy fish post so nobody could see. Avoid this haunted greasy spoon at all costs!
My name name is Ben and I am 11 years old. It was our first time eating here and Nadir was our sever and he was so kind and nice.we really liked him as our sever. I loved the Bingo game and the prizes. Thank you very much for the prizes.
