Recommended on Facebook and decided to check it out. Went on Saturday at 9AM so it was a bit busy but able to get a table for two fairly quickly. Ordered the Lucky 2 and an vanilla iced latte. Great prices, employees were friendly, food was great. Will come back, I love the retro style and the menu had funny descriptions.
Stopped in for the first time for brunch. The food was great. I got the Reuben, which was good. The fries were crispy and flavorful. The wife ordered eggs over easy with bacon and homefries which were great. The service was excellent. Lorraine was awesome, patient and really knew the menu front and back. I would definitely recommend stopping in!
We had a nice breakfast here. The restaurant is clean and has a great mid-century vibe. Our cheese omelette was good (our criteria is good quality cheese, not that plastic cheese food, and enough cheese that there's cheese in every bite. Scrapple was also nicely done, not deep fried like a lot of restaurants do as a shortcut. Our rye toast was the best we've ever had at a traditional diner in this area. Our only quibble--and it's a matter of personal taste, but important to us--is the home fries. We prefer sliced potatoes cooked on a flat top, but these are cubed and deep fried, sort of like small french fries.
We had a great experience here. Our server was Michelle; she was attentive and caring. I ordered an Autumn veggies skillet from the specials menu and was very pleased and satisfied with it. My teen boys devoured their French toast and biscuits & gravy. If you prefer a crispy potato then I recommend asking for home fries in place of hash browns. I look forward to stopping here again next time I'm in the area.
Normally, I eat here fine. I won't be ordering a salad here ever again. It's huge. It gave me a case of Montezuma Revenge. Service is great! I just won't take a salad.
