I absolutely adore this little diner. The fact that they're open 24/7 is a huge selling point as well. Every dish I've tried here has been fantastic, but a special shout-out to their hamburger steak, cream of broccoli soup, and tapioca pudding! Super reasonable prices for a huge, delicious meal. I go here about once a week for my fix of comfort food!

This is a great place to spend time with friends and family, The food is always great, you get large portions and the price is always affordable. The staff and owners are very pleasant and friendly. Definitely would return again
August 2024
The homemade soups are delicious! The meals are plentiful, we always have leftovers for another meal. Some meals even come with a beverage and small ( delicious ) dessert. If I lived in Rockford l would become a regular customer, as I have been there for breakfast, lunch and supper this week. You wont find a better deal for good food and service, this place is a gem! Try their daily specials *!
