Old school Diner. I ordered breakfast. Eggs, home fries, hot sausage. It was okay. The home fries was a little burned. They make fresh bread. That was different. It was a very thick piece of bread toasted with butter. The bread is unique but overall It is a decent breakfast. It was okay. It did what it's supposed to do. If in the vacinity I would go back but I wouldn't go out of my way to go back.

This Diner is the best diner I have ever gone to in my life. It has been operating since 1937 and is an original. I love it! It is absolutely 100% genuine, and should be kept open and running as it is a place of absolute history too. I hope it remains to be open and running past it's 100 birthday and that future generations can experieince something real and genuine, the real American Diner as it was from the time it opened till now. Untouched, and not recreated as a diner...

I love coming here! It’s a cozy hole in the wall in my neighborhood that myself and my boyfriend always go to when we have the chance. The homemade bread is one of my favorites. They use it to make the French toast! Boyfriend loves the beef bacon, pancakes, and chicken and waffles. Our food is always hot and delicious and the staff is always nice. Only thing we don’t like is that they’re not open on Sundays.
