It was just described in the brochure, food was so good and freshly made to order. Crabcakes were dreamy.

This little diner has great hometown service and large buttery pancakes. I could eat here every morning and it would always make me smile and deliver a punch of amazing flavors to my tastebuds!

I arrived on a Thursday evening not long before closing. I was one of just a few guests, but I was greeted warmly and encouraged to sit pretty much wherever I wished. I picked a seat at the counter.
My first impression of the menu was it was quite varied; my second was, “Pricey!” However … once the food began arriving, I quickly realized that the prices reflected quite high-quality food and service.
First came a fresh square of focaccia-style bread together with a small cup of tangy olive oil dip (with a bit of a kick!). This wasn’t even mentioned on the menu. This is a diner?
My drink order, a glass of ice water and a mug of black coffee, arrived quickly. (I prefer black, strong coffee. This was fresh, but not strong. Oh well. It was twice refilled promptly without my asking, a good thing.)
I then ordered the parmesan-encrusted chicken, which comes on a bed of pasta. For my included side, I ordered a salad with blue cheese dressing.
To my delight, without being asked they brought the salad *first*. And what a salad. Yes, it was just a side salad, but it was completely fresh, with thin turnip and onion slices decoratively distributed on top, many small cherry tomatoes *and* a serious amount of small diced tomatoes underneath the lettuce. The on-the-side generous portion of blue cheese dressing rivaled what I make at home.
The chicken was thick, tender, and cooked perfectly—tender, moist, just right. The crust complemented the dish rather than taking it over. The pasta had a light lemon sauce, very nice.
Once I finished the main course, I pointed at one of those old-style glass display cases that had several brownies in it. They offered to heat it. “Yes, please!” It was scrumptious, not at all dry despite having been on display.
If this place was a white-tablecloth restaurant, the food and service would fit right in … well, perhaps with upgraded coffee. And the speaker(s?) they used for their late-ish 20th century music (which I enjoyed, by the way—I grew up in the second half of that century) could stand to be upgraded.
I have plans to return there twice in the next couple of months. I look forward to it!

Food is FANTASTIC. We walked in and it was a wait, but like my husband said “that’s a good sign, means they’re good.” Was definitely worth the wait - which wasn’t that long, but they also said they’ve been slower than usual, presumably because of the extended government shutdown. Staff was friendly and great to chat with. We had a special (Benedict royale) and a Cuban. My husband said his Cuba was better than one he had at a Cuban restaurant over in Suffolk. The lady we spoke with said she lived in Key West some years ago for many years and learned a good Cuban sandwich that way. It was flavorful and juuuicy! She said they’re also open Wednesday Thursday Friday for DINNER, and that the dinners are more upscale because they have some very “overqualified” chefs, so they get the chance to show off those skills more on those nights.
This is definitely one of your “hidden gems” sort of places, situated kind of hidden all nondescript in a strip with very understated signage. Interior is a lil dated, it was def a lil warm inside, but tolerable, and toilet seat I think was loose or something 😅 I survived it though lol If this place was situated in a fancier setting, I’d definitely expect to see much higher priced menu for the quality of dishes. OH! And don’t forget to try the local hot sauces!
Great place to stop by and grab a bite to eat! Southern approved iced sweet tea and tasty breakfast! The nuland tomatillo hot sauce is must on the egg and cheese sandwich! ENJOY

Good service. Fast and friendly. The food was good but two of us ate. It was 40 bucks and we both walk out of there hungry. The portions are small. Good food is worth more money but you should never leave hungry.
