Great little diner that has some of the most amazing soups, salads and always makes you feel like your home.

Kid-friendliness: They always make sure the kids have something to color and have highchairs available.

Front desk was friendly and welcoming, food tasted good for the most part until i opened my box of blueberry pancakes. It was as if someone put a whole jar of blueberry spread where i couldnt even find my pancakes! Maybe ill ask for light blueberries next time

A sweet little cafe, with an extensive menu. I'm afraid I didn't take pictures, but it really had a broad selection of breakfast items, which is why we went. We had a gyro-skillet with pancake, and a spinach/mushroom omelette. Both were delicious. The service was also great. I missed our server's name, but it was early, and she was a lovely person, so there you go?. We'll be back

Absolutely way over priced for what it is. $67 for 3 kids and 1 adult?? Food was average. Server was very nice. Pricing is way out of line! Last time for us. Pass it up for a steak dinner somewhere nice for the same money.

Service was bad. Order something and didn’t even get it and asked three other times for it. Ants crawling on the table.

We always stop in for dinner at least once a week. Their chicken and soups are amazing. Never have to ask for anything, food is hot, and carry out’s are always correct. Fast and friendly people there.
