Visited today on my lunch break.
Must know: they only accept cash, no cards, there is an atm inside for convenience.

I had the 1/2 Sand and cup of soup.
The Seafood Bisque was thick and rich. Beautiful soup.
The 1/2 Corned Beef was fresh, large, and not salty. Wonderfully fresh sandwich.

I also had a side of Mediterranean salad.
Chick peas, soft cabbage, kale, red bell pepper, feta, dressed perfectly.

This will be a go to spot for many future lunches.

Highly recommend!

I love breakfast. It’s not that hard to mess up. Somehow this place can’t figure out basics. I had sand in my potatoes, the pancakes tasted like frozen microwaved rocks, and the turkey sausage was simply inedible. I had the throw everything away. I don’t write a lot of reviews but my god this place is terrible. I mean really guys how do you fux it up so bad? Please fix your food. Cash only also…

Delicious food! Friendly and fast service, very reasonably priced. Right next-door to the Even Hotel on Forbes Avenue. Cash only. So good we visited twice during our Pittsburgh stay.

Great diner with super friendly and helpful staff! Enjoyed a peaceful morning and a generously portioned breakfast for a great price. Space is small but everything feels cozy and chill here- hope to come back sometime! Oatmeal was amazing and so were the omelettes

We had a good breakfast. I was happy that they could make an egg white omelette. But sadly they didn't have any decaf coffee so I had to stop at a Starbucks on the way back. Cash only so keep that in mind. It looked like the building itself was under construction so not a lot of atmosphere.

I've been wanting to try here forever and could kick myself for not! Best western omlette I've ever had. Everyone is super friendly here. Can't beat the prices either.

I'm a breakfast cook in a VERY busy restaurant and I try to not be too critical of other spots but this was, without question the WORST breakfast I've had maybe ever! Sign in front says, "Voted best breakfast in the city". Has almost 5 star reviews. Advertises Charcoal Grilled steak and eggs. The steak looked like a piece of gristle that had lost a hatchet fight, was coated in raw dry oregano flakes and was definitely NO WHERE NEAR a charcoal grill. I couldn't even find my potatoes under all the spices they were soaked in. 1 bite was all I could swallow. The people were very nice, the eggs were ok and the toast wasn't burnt. That's all the good there was. NEVER AGAIN!
