Probably the best breakfast spot in the area! Food comes out fast even when they are full at capacity. Friendly staff and you CANNOT beat these prices. 100% recommend!

They are decently priced and kind people. They are pretty busy for a family business that is still going strong after all these years. I would say yes on recommending them.

It has been years since we visited here. I have to say, the food and service today was the same as it was 10 + years ago! EXCELLENT!! Pete always greets every customer that walks in the door and thanks every customer as they leave all while cooking away on the flattop!! The entire staff is friendly and outgoing as well!!
My wife and I will definitely be back soon!!

I judge all other breakfasts compared to the Potato Shak. Been my favorite breakfast for over 40 years.

45 minutes ago, we ordered. Still waiting. Watched plenty of people who were seated AFTER us already get their food, pay, and leave.

I come here for their breakfast. You are welcomed by the cook/ owner when you walk in the door .The food is delicious and the restaurant is clean. I've never had a bad waitresses. And when you leave the cook will ask you how your food was? Then he'll tell you to have a good day.

Great diner! Owner greets you when you arrive and thanks you when you leave (from the grill as he cooks). Eggs are perfect every time. Never any crusty stuff. I've been there dozens of times and never had a bad experience or meal. Service is great, and they keep your coffee cup full. Best breakfast spot ever!
