Food is always fresh and made to order. Servers are super nice and so is the owner . Yummy food we always come back to this place for breakfast. The waitress walks over with our drinks lets us know if there is any soups and tells us about the specials

Stopped for breakfast wanting corned beef hash,and omlette. I got Spanish omelet after talking to owner making sure I got anything I wanted she would give me I was completly Completly satisfied. Home fries fresh and not dried out. Spanish omelet was tasty and filling. Corned beef could have been less dry but it was plentiful. Little expensive for drinks. Service was outgoing pleasant., and is beyond friendly. They made me want to come back more.

Love the whole vibe of a 50's diner.The food was delicious.The only thing was myself and my boyfriend are bigger people and the booths are small. I thought maybe they would have a table available and they did not. It was difficult to eat my breakfast, due to sitting next to my boyfriend on one side. It was a bit embarrassing while our friends sat across from us.If there is a next time we will get takeout or not invite our friends to dine with us.

Service was a bit slow, wasn't busy. Food was good. Atmosphere is usually good but my wife and I were a bit turned off by staff (waitress and cook). They awkwardly hung out and were having an obnoxious laughing fit together. Just was annoying that they couldn't congregate to themselves in the back. Not a deal breaker, wasn't our first visit and won't be our last.Parking: 2 spots on the property of the restaurant, the rest is street parking.Kid-friendliness: We've taken out kids before, not an issue.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes but a bit limited for room.

I have not been there yet to try the food but I just moved in next door. The owner of this establishment and his nephew took time out of their day while it was freezing out to snowblow my driveway after nearly 4 feet dropped while I was at work and subsequently stuck at a friend's house. I only had a shovel and it would've taken me literal hours to do the job. It was incredibly heartwarming to see such kindness still exists in this world and while I haven't tried their cooking yet, this is a review of character.

Classic American style dinner with a great server who gave great banter (sorry a Scottish slang for good conversationial back and forth)Food was great and with a nice homely/community feel much like the dinner itself, I'm definitely looking forward to coming back and asking for a white Americano =D

First time here, and loved it. Was treated extremely well despite being that last minute guest right before close. Will 100% be back. Keith the owner was really nice, and the good was great.

We've surprisingly struggled for the last few years to did a breakfast restaurant to keep going to. We were down to 1 and it is a bit of a drive, so we didn't go out as often as we would have liked. We discovered the diner as we were eating lunch nearby and decided to give it a try the next day. We're so happy we did. We had a very good experience and were so intrigued by the wonderful classic old diner motif. But best of all was the service and the meal. As it was later on a rainy day we thought it would be slow but it was almost full. We were greeted and directed to a clean booth immediately and the menu's were dropped off as we were shedding our damp jackets. We couldn't help but be tickled by the classic diner feel of the place. (See photos). The menu is very classic, straight forward and easy choose from. Our server came over greeted us warmly answered our questions and we ordered quickly. We got our drinks promptly and as we noticed and chuckled about different aspects of the decor we also noticed as few things. The restaurant was very clean. The customers coming and going were obviously mostly regulars from the easy banter and joking around we observed. It was such a fun and welcoming atmosphere. The food came out quickly, hot and fresh. I was so happy and hungry I forgot to take any pics. But trust me there were no disappointments. We got refills promptly and friendly service and conversation throughout our meal. All in all we had a good meal and a good time. This place is legit and we're so happy to have found it. We were frankly struggling to find good breakfast options the last few years.

My cousin and myself try a new diner or coffee shop every week and I came across this little place while looking online. It is right on the main drag of roadway but we drove right by it twice as it doesn’t have a huge sign and it’s right on a corner. We walked in and the theme is very old retro music, movie related, like an old fashioned diner, we loved the eccentric vibe inside. It’s not huge has a counter you can sit at and then about 6 or 8 booths. We sat and there was an old fashioned juke box on the table and neon signs that said side soda shop, and floats on the wall and they even have the old fashioned ice cream sundae glasses. We ordered breakfast which was very good, I had the chicken souvlaki breakfast which was good but the chicken didn’t have flavor like some places, it was kinda bland needed to be marinated longer or more seasonings added. Our server was Andrea she gave us a bit of a background on the place while she was taking care of us, she was nice and very efficient. Great place to try if in the area, we will definately come back again to try another meal, great little hidden gem we found.

This was a really fun little diner if you appreciate the 50s era diners. We had breakfast, and it wasn't spectacular, but it was tasty and affordable. The service was good, the location was well-maintained and clean, and the overall atmosphere was a fun throwback. Definitely would visit again and recommend to others.
