Delicious! No frills, just your classic diner breakfast/lunch served fresh and hot. Bacon was crisp, coffee was good, atmosphere was just right. Great place to go with mom and dad.
We had cheesesteaks and soft drinks. The meat was good quality, but the prices felt quite high for what was essentially a sandwich with meat and cheese. It came across as a bit of a tourist trap, although that may partly reflect the generally high food prices in the US. We also found the overall quality and variety of food available during our trip to be somewhat disappointing compared to what we're used to.
The restaurant itself was fine, but the service was somewhat underwhelming. The waitress was not particularly welcoming, and considering we left a 20% tip and the restaurant was nearly empty, we would have expected a friendlier attitude.
Overall, the food was decent, but the experience did not quite justify the price.

I recommend this place. Yesterday I was in Philadelphia checking things out and bought a bacon cheeseburger. The girl who served me was lovely and beautiful; she gave me excellent service, and it shows in her eyes. People should be like that, but unfortunately, society is lost. I only say that because it's true, but I'll go there more often to eat. They treated me very well.

Went to for empanadas as the sign said the best empanadas! Got a chicken and cheese and cheesesteak. The chicken one was mmm ok. The cheesesteak got tons of cheese but no steak, NONE! Next time for lunch I’ll stick to the usual.

There's a picture from their website of the $5 sausage. Then there's the thin little patties they actually gave me. I could've bought a box of those for $5
Atleast the waffle was okay.
