Got the 2 eggs scrambled with potatoes, sausage, and rye toast. Loved everything except the sausage. Didn't care for it at all, other wise was a good breakfast.

Great little dinner with great service and food. It's the only place that has gotten the potatoes right when we asked for them extra crispy. They weren't burnt or under done but had a nice caramelized taste.

Not the best breakfast. Ordered the Truckers Special with Egg whites. Some how the eggs were over cooked & dry on the top, yet undercooked & greasy on the bottom. Overall, neither part tasted particularly good. The toast was ok but not buttered very well. Can see in the picture it is just a small circle in the middle rather than edge to edge. Bacon was good and so was the ham. The sausage was meh and the home fries were not seasoned very well. Tasted more like a cut up baked potato. Do not think I will be back again.

If I could give the service 10 stars I would. The waitress was awesome and professional. The food was too much for the low cost and quality. I can't say enough about my new go to

This diner is outstanding. The food, the slightly snarky waitress and the atmosphere are all on point.I ordered the classic Eggs Benedict with home fries. The eggs were beautifully cooked, breaking in a gorgeous runny yellow when cut. The muffin was crispy, but not overdone. The Hollandaise sauce was perfect with just the right amount of lemon.I haven't had home fries like this in years! Crispy on the edges, soft and billowy potatoes in the middle, all with translucent onions.The portion size was exactly l what I wanted. I left full, but not stuffed.I'm a tea drinker and they understand how to serve tea here. Most diners offer unlimited coffee, but when you ask for a second cup of tea, they usually just bring you a cup of hot water and expect you to reuse the old tea bag.Not here! Tea was served with two tea bags, a full cup and a pot of hot water. Excellent!I can't wait to go back.Wheelchair accessibility: fully accessible restaurant. I don't know about the rest rooms.

Always plenty of seating or the wait is very short. The resturant is well kept. I always look at the ceiling in places and it's immaculate here. The staff is very attentive and the food is high quality at a reasonable price. My go to is the Colonial with pancakes and scrambled eggs for $13.Parking: Lots of parking

We moved to the capital district 5 years ago and had never found a great place to eat. We now have a new favorite. The food is spectacular and the service shines.
