Love this place. Brings me back to my teen, young adult days! Our waitress was THE best; I wish I'd asked her name. I wish the East end location was still open, too 😞 For now, we will come here every time we have our dog groomed nearby .. every 8 weeks.

Really good server (Anjela); she was fast, polite, just the right amount of friendly. The food was just what I needed but I found most items on the menu were a little pricey. Great diner atmosphere.
