Has changed a lot since A State took it over, but it's still a town staple.

Went there today 11-14-25. It is now owned by Alfred State. Been coming here for 20years. Friday morning at 10am, There were 4 customers seated at tables. Plenty of staff there, 3 cooks on the grill. 45 minutes to get 2 eggs, home fries, sausage, toast and a water!! An older blonde haired lady took my order. 20 minutes goes by, I complain to the waitress and specifically asked her if my order went in she said yes, let me check? She comes back it will be just a couple minutes. 10 minutes goes by a different waitress comes by an older lady and asks if anyone is taken care of me I said yes but the service is extremely slow. This older lady was great and hustled my order to the front of the line. My order never went in, the blonde lady never put it in. The older lady said she will comp my bill. I never got so much as an apology from the blonde waitress. Meanwhile the “manager” is at a table talking to the college president. The food came out, eggs were hot, toast was cold as were the sausage paddies. Home fries were ok. Very poorly managed restaurant. Get these kids some more training and find a new manager who cares about the customers. I will give it one more chance.

Food is fine, price is great! I like the suvlakie salad! New owners dropped the suvlakie salad from the menue.

They are closed but have a food truck serving. I ordered a chicken sandwich and the breast was raw! I took a bite and hope I don’t get sick. I’d give it a zero or Negative if it allowed.

This is a historical place. It's been around for about 100 years, it opened when my grandpa was about 5 years old. He would eat there often, usually Saturdays after Church services. He would take us, family, there pretty often. Our family has gone there for years. My cousin worked there when he was in college at AU, about 6 plus years ago. This is one of our favorite places in Alfred.

I used to live in the area. My mother still does. When I come to visit The Jet and another local restaurant are places I visit first and second. Then I will go again at least one more time before I leave. I don't make my mother cook I just revisit these restaurants over and over while I'm there. I don't get back that often so I have to get my fix

Great food and real servings still. great prices and attentive and fast staff.
Kid-friendliness: They bring the juice in a cup with a lid that is car friendly if you have a younger kiddo. They have crayons at the table to draw on your placemats. Since it's a college town that may be for students writing down ideas on their mats too ? even. I didn't notice boosters but saw that my kid wasn't the only one enjoying the atmosphere and food
Wheelchair accessibility: Has a ramp.

They were very busy and it took a bit to get a table but the service was great despite that, very friendly and came to check when the server was able. Only complaint was that the eggs on the eggs Benedict were fully cooked instead of runny. Other than that, I was happy with the service and food.
Ordered cold roast beef sub to go during their breakfast time, a good sub with little bit too much mayo but good sub.

Classic college greek diner. Used to come here regularly as a student. Some entrees are not great but the breakfast is always satisfying. Sadly they close at 3 and used to do late nigtlht dinner. I'm guessing covid changed the model. Just glad to see it was packed. And the prices...so affordable

Great place.. too bad they’re never open. Daughter is a senior at Alfred State and freshman year, we would always choose this place. We’re only an hour away, so we visit frequently & it hasn’t been open on any visit since.
