[!] Carry cash with you, the final bill will be cheaper. They do the extra surcharge thing due to the card system thing.
Only ate there twice. I think the first time was the Fiesta Philly. It was really good and very filling. The second half of it can be saved for another meal. Tater tots were crispy. I’m surprises I liked their pickles, since I hate themThe second time was the Cider pancakes. I don’t recommend them. Didn’t taste too much difference. There is outdoor seating as well.

Great place, great service. The nice lady got my eggs wrong - I asked for scrambled and she gave me over medium - but I'm honestly grateful because she tossed in some free hashbrowns and they were probably the best hashbrowns I've ever had, and mixing with the egg yolk made them even better. The toast was pretty great as well. They don't have white so I ordered wheat even tho I don't really like wheat, but it was surprisingly delicious. Coffee's not bad, just regular diner coffee.
Tables looked alright and clean, mostly small for a more casual atmosphere for singles, pairs, 3-4. Kitchen is open to diners' view; I personally don't care about that but I know there's a niche that likes being able to see where their food is prepared.
Only issue I had was the toilet wasn't clean. Rest of the bathroom looked very clean though, sink looks new and fashionable and they have an automated paper towel dispenser that works fine. There's even a fancy wooden changing table in there for people with babies. I guess maybe someone had just used the toilet right before me and I just got bad luck of the draw.
Place is super great, I'd love to have hangover food from here as a regular if I didn't live an hour and a half away.

Stellar local gem. We ate here twice in one weekend upon discovering.. The staff busts their buns to serve all the patrons timely. We had the BLT, Philly cheese steak sandwich, All American breakfast, and a Classic burger. The cinnamon roll was amazing. Best tater tot’s of my life. Homemade dressings and breads. We will be frequent returning customers happy to support this place!

The food was amazing. The cinnamon rolls and French toast were delicious! They had a great variety of breakfast and lunch items. Not to mention the homemade breads. I would highly recommend The Wooden Spoon if you’re looking for some good food!
A little hole in the wall type of place. The waitress was wonderful, kept our coffee cups full and was very attentive.
I ordered the Florentine omelette, and it was extremely dry and overcooked with no seasoning. I wouldn't order an omelette again. The sourdough toast was excellent, though, and the hash browns were nice and crispy.
The restaurant is run down with chipped paint on the walls, mismatched artwork, and metal shelving with the kitchen in full view. The music was loud, and at 7:00 in the morning was blaring songs like American Woman and Rock in the USA. Not a very relaxing or pleasant atmosphere.

Service was slow, food was bland at best. Hash browns nearly inedible, pancakes were cold, eggs have an odd taste.
The breakfast-dilla was okay.
The server was nice enough, just not efficient and did not bring things we asked for multiple times at any point.
I ordered take out from here. My fiance picked it up. I ordered biscuits and gravy with extra gravy and the gravy on the side so the biscuits wouldn’t be soggy. They put the gravy in line a plastic cup with a very loose lid so the gravy spilt all over the bag and basically ruined everything. My fiance is a safe driver and said the bags stayed in the front seat and didn’t tip over on the ride home. I tried the tablespoon of gravy that was still in the cup and it was disgusting. It had like a greasy layer on top. I don’t think I’ve ever given a bad review, I know everyone has bad days but come on people. I have a two year old son who was really hungry that I got the kids meal choc chip pancakes for. That was the only food that wasn’t dripping in cold bag gravy. I’m glad at least my son’s happy. $50 for basically 3 choc chip pancakes that didn’t even come with syrup. I definitely won’t be eating here again.
Excellent experience got in and out in a busy morning within 30 minutes. The server was super pleasant and attentive, and the restaurant was very clean. Food was amazing.
Our family’s favorite breakfast. Very creative pancake options that we all love!
Food was fresh, original, and delicious! Our waiter, Robert, was fantastic! We’ll be back and bring family and friends!
