Got here at 9:50 on a Saturday and was sat right away. Our server Julius was lovely, as is the whole vibe of this place! Had to try the pancakes and they did not disappoint. Perfect mix of fluffy and gooey. We skipped the whip cream, doesn’t need it. The chai hot cocoa was also delicious. I wanted NJ diner pancakes on this trip and I was not disappointed!!

Amazing food and wonderful service! ❤ Everything we ordered was delicious, and the service was warm, friendly, and attentive. The environment is also really nice and comfortable.
The only thing I wish they had is Wi-Fi, but honestly, that’s just a small detail compared to the overall experience.
And their Belgian waffle is AMAZING! 🧇❤ It’s honestly so good that I would drive an hour just...
