Very disappointed in my experience here. Food wasn’t tasty, & service was well below sub par.

Used to be a really great place, but they've increased prices and quality definitely went down. Took the lady out for breakfast and paid $59.83 for the two of us. A side of bacon is 6 bucks. They need to revise their prices and work on some quality control food wise.

Food tastes awesome BUT... I've noticed a reduction in potion sizes (particularly meats in Sandwiches).
It's sad too cause this used to be one of the best diners in the area.

They do a VERY nice Turkey Club, it’s tasty and piled high. Fries and coleslaw are yummy too. Price is very reasonable. I always order online, they take the time to follow little request I have.

I’ve been coming to this diner for years now, & it’s definitely one of my favorite spots and it’s always GOOD! The staff is always so friendly and welcoming. My favorite is definitely the oreo waffle, I love my turkey bacon extra crispy so don’t judge the picture lol! The pancakes are so yummy and the french toast is so good too! If you want to find a new spot to eat, please check this place out, you won’t regret it!

This is your typical strip mall diner. They offer indoor and outdoor seating. The food and service are good. I recommend the limited edition pumpkin pancakes. They were delicious! And if you like your bacon super crisp, they will do that for you. (Limp bacon is the worst.)
Wheelchair accessibility: It is wheelchair accessible. Seating includes tables, booths, and counter seating.

This is a true diner- a really terrific one! I’ve been here so many times and the food is always great; the servers always pleasant. Look at this club sandwich- just right and enough for two meals. Love this place.
