Ive past this place WAY too many times. Finally had a planned lunch/breakfast and was very pleased!! Wonderful waitress, great service! And my omelet was Da Bomb 💣!!! We'll definitely be back!
Great place to eat! I just happened to be working nearby so I grabbed a Philly Cheese steak and it was delicious! The young ladies on the early shift were pleasant and cooked well. The next day I was still working nearby so I grabbed another Philly. Also delicious! This time it was a different set of young ladies and they too were pleasant to deal with. I forgot my pink lemonade that I paid for and when I returned hours later they didn't hesitate to make sure I received another lemonade.
Good mom and pop restaurant
The burger was great, also all the people working there are amazing!!
I really like this little place, it's got all you need, but the kitchen's where it's at. Me and the crew get breakfast regularly and it's great.
Make sure to tip the cook/waitress!
Their Garden Salad is the best always fresh and you can’t beat the pizzas.
2 piece flounder plate was good & so big I took leftovers home.

This place has been around since I was a child , had good food , good staff and decent prices . Now the food is terrible , staff is ridiculous and prices are outrageous. I called yesterday to order a carls burger which is suppose to be fresh patties the girl who answered the phone said no they were not fresh and handed the phone to someone else while yelling and this woman wants me to patty out fresh hamburger and I am not doing that ! So the woman answered after being handed the phone and apologized . Needless to say they lost money because I cancelled my order after the attitude . They may as well go ahead and change the name because it will no longer be decent like it was when Carl & Mable was alive . The kids working there are just that , kids . No respect .
