If I could give this place zero stars, I would — and even that would feel generous. The food might fool you at first: it looks nice, smells great, and even tastes okay. But don’t let it deceive you. None of it matters once you experience the nightmare that is their service.
The waitress — the blonde one — has to be one of the rudest, most unprofessional people I’ve ever encountered in any restaurant, anywhere. It’s as if she takes personal offense at your very existence. Every word from her mouth dripped with disdain. Every look was pure contempt. I genuinely started wondering if I had accidentally walked into a place where customers were unwelcome by design.
It wasn’t just bad service — it was an outright humiliation. I left feeling furious, disrespected, and honestly shocked that such a person could be allowed to work in hospitality. Imagine paying money to be treated like a burden. That’s what dining here feels like.
To make matters worse, they charge an extra fee if you pay by card — which is illegal, as businesses cannot penalize card payments or incentivize cash transactions to avoid paying taxes. That alone should be reported to the relevant authorities.
Please, do yourself a favor: stay far, far away from this restaurant. No meal is worth that kind of treatment. I wouldn’t go back even if they offered me free food for life.

Small diner, lots of old timers, excellent breakfast food. Everything a diner should be! Prices are good too
Lovely, classically local vibe with incredibly friendly service and delicious food. We had some card troubles due to being from out of town, but the staff were patient and understanding while we got everything sorted. Would definitely recommend for the hospitality alone!

Great diner, lovely staff, I got the chicken sausage omelette with peppers and cheese, it was really good. Nice diner to stop off at before you head on a walk around Harvard.

One of the very few places in Cambridge that has kept this old style cachet without having a full-blown woke tranformation. You still see the older patrons, families, very sweet staff, and the food is good.
