I was so pleasantly surprised by this place. Very reasonable pricing with high quality, good tasting food, and enormous portions. Great service and quick delivery.
We had the matzah ball chicken noodle soup, the country omellette, plain bagel, everything bagel, and bialy and all was extremely excellent. Best deli food I have had in a while. I highly recommend this place

Went in for a grilled cheese with bacon on a pretzel bun. The past two times it had cost 8 to 9 dollars. Today on 4/6/24 i went in for the same order and they charged me 12 dollars. Not going back. Terrible. Get your prices right and keep them right.

Used to be a great experience. $15 for this sandwich. What’s with the false advertising on the wall. Super disappointed and won’t be coming back. Plenty of better options in the area.

As an east coast transplant, this place reminds me of New Jersey diners. Bagels and lox plate were perfect but the curly fries were perfection!

Food was perfect both trips here and on the scheduled pick up time also. Zero hassle experience with the counter staff, they are fantastic

Parking: Google Maps leads you to the back of the store, not to the storefront. Be careful.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Once Upon a Grill! From the moment we walked in, the service was impeccable. The staff were not just polite but genuinely welcoming, making us feel like honored guests.

The food quality was great. This is a quality mid-teer breakfast diner. I have ordered several things off the menu and each dish was really good. You can get bagels, skillets, omelets, and many other breakfast foods. I have not had the pancakes but from what I have seen it is not that great.

The establishment is very clean and spotless, from the tables to the restrooms. It felt like the staff really took pride in maintaining a pristine environment.

However, it's important to note that "Once Upon a Grill" is not a place for those seeking ultra-fancy, gourmet dining. Instead, it excels as a haven for comfort food lovers, offering delicious, well-prepared dishes in a friendly, inviting atmosphere.

This is the place you go to have great home cooked breakfast so you can chat about current events, laugh, and not worry about making breakfast.

Order at the counter, they bring the food to you and clean your table of your debris when your done. Attendants do enjoy a tip.
