I went in with two others for breakfast on a Tuesday. The special was biscuits & gravy. The gravy was OK - not great but not terrible - but that didn't matter. The biscuits were extremely hard, couldn't even cut them with a butter knife, and that is not an exaggeration; they were inedible. Any cook serving those biscuits should not keep his job, and I don't mean that as hyperbole. Another in our party ordered over easy eggs, and they were served over-hard with the yolks cooked. That's also on the cook, but it was clearly visible to the server as well. Other food in our party: good pancakes, good omelette, and good hash browns. So some food was good, but one breakfast inedible, another was degraded, and in a party of 3, that is enough for a one-star food rating.

We were very polite when talking to the server about the problems, and she was understanding at first, but her attitude quickly turned south, and she did not really acknowledge or fully address the problems.

I realize that this is not a 5-star establishment, but this was a bad dining experience and I would have hoped for a little better.

Food was good. The service was terrible. She took our order, someone else brought it out and we never saw our waitress until it was time to get the bill. Won't be back.

Just a nice classic diner to go for breakfast when you’re in town. I really enjoyed my omelette, but left on the stove just a little too long.

We asked Cafe 53 to cater our daughters graduation party. The food was EXCELLENT! Everyone complimented the homemade salads and hot freshly cooked burgers! Highly recommend them for your next party or even just to pop in and have your own meal. Staff was attentive and responded quickly preceeding the event with all my questions and concerns. Can't say enough about the excellent food!

Basic, overpriced menu. I’m shocked anyone even goes here. Who is buying grilled cheese for 10$ lol tastes like Walmart reheated leftovers. Go read a recipe book and do it yourself. For the amount of people working there you would think the food would be ok at least. It is also filthy and looks like it hasn’t seen hot water or a mop in decades.
