This place feels like if Waffle House were Waffle Home. Formerly an ancient DQ circa 1995, the now grandma-chic interior tells you all you need to know.

They nailed every diner-food high note
- Eggs: cooked perfectly, not overdone
- hash browns: not frozen; crispy, fresh, and the gravy I ordered on the side set it over the top.
- pancakes: some of the best I’ve ever had.
- coffee: contrary to another review, coffee was a quite good diner brew.

The staff are quick and friendly, and the prices seem to have escaped inflation. The best value meal I’ve found in ages.

This is a little hole in the wall place. I had high hopes that the breakfast would be reflective. We both got the monster omelette. It was just okay at best. The hash browns were very disappointing and the country potatoes were maybe just a little bit better. Biscuit tasted old, gravy was probably the best thing we tasted here, but nothing to write home about. Probably the worst coffee I've ever tasted and my mug was dirty. It looked like it had been sitting top down on something sticky and had lint etc around the rim. I asked for a cleaner cup and I was provided one. The staff were very friendly. Overall, I wouldn't come back because of the food. Very nasty bathroom.

When I walked in the Restaurant, I noticed it was dirty, as the other ratings stated. I also noticed how 3 tables weren't clean. When we Finally got one waiters attention, she just threw the menus on the table and left! The food took at least an hour to come. The food was overall good, BUT GET THIS! When we left, those 3 tables WERE STILL DIRTY! The walls beside us were dirty and had dead bugs on it. I'm only being nice when I give them 3 stars. Would only come back if I was desperate.

First and last time going here. The first thing I noticed when I entered the restaurant was how cluttered and messy the dining area was, with one booth having a pile of jeans. Many tables dirty. The people working there did not seem very friendly, one lady handed me a menu and walked off and continued talking to someone else. Never offered me to have a seat or a drink. After trying three different chairs I found one clean enough to sit on. The next lady that took my order didn’t even really speak much, no thank you or your welcome or anything. Lack of manners and service. The food was trash. The green beans taste like they were poured straight out of a can onto the plate, the mashed potatoes had no flavor or seasoning and the chicken was covered in seasoned salt. Don’t waste you time on this place.

Went to dine there and my wife & I wanted to eat outside. 1st off I had to ask for napkins b/c the chairs was covered in dirt. I never received them so after standing around for about 5min I had to go inside to get them. My wife and I waited another 10-15 min and no one ever came out to take our order. We ended up leaving.It was around 11 am on a Thursday and was not very busy. Would never go back.

The food was amazing, it was really good and cooked just the way you ask for it. It surely is a hidden gem if your not from the area. I enjoy every visit here never had a bad experience, I will say just be respectful and courteous to others around you since it is a small establishment. But I do recommend the breakfast! I haven’t tried the lunch other than the cheese burger and it good and juicy I am sure, there is something for everyone.!!

This place was absolutely TERRIBLE! The chicken fried steak was bad, the biscuits had no flavor and were crumbling apart. Waffles sucked and don't let me get started on the filthy restrooms! Toilet seat wasn't even bolted down and trash was full of toilet paper! Filthy place and alot of laziness going on. Worst breakfast I ever had.

Catfish for breakfast was an interesting experience.The catfish was fried nicely, but didn't have much flavor. The eggs and potatoes didn't have much flavor or salt. Fortunately they had hot sauce. The coffee was hot and fresh. The waitress was friendly, and the diner vibes were nice.
