★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Savina Wiltshire · Feb 2026

Food was awful, had onion and mushrooms omelet. Eggs were dry, mushrooms looked like they popped them out of a water, no flavor. Potatoes were old toast was stale. Very sad this use to be a nice place. I should have suspected something was off when there was only two cars in the parking lot. I won't be going back.

★★★★★ 5.0 Parvez Mazed · Jan 2026

Fantastic cozy atmosphere with lots of natural light and exotic plants. Food and service was great.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Jim K · Feb 2026

Mediocre at best. Not a very friendly staff. Food was ok. Ordered Fish and Chips for lunch ( menu said English style with malt vinegar). He delivered it with no malt vinegar, I asked for it and he came back with oil and vinegar and left. I went to the counter and ask for malt vinegar and the other waiter gave me a bottle that hadn’t been opened yet. We couldn’t open it so he took it into the kitchen to open it. He came back to the table with the broken glass bottle to show me. He said that was the only bottle they had in the entire diner. Also, the menu shows the lunch special includes a drink, but he said it doesn’t and that the “white tape” over the word “drink” fell off. My wife’s pastrami sandwich was fine.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Anthony Parenti · Feb 2026

We road travel a lot. We’ve been in many diners and restaurants over the last 20 years This diner has a unique way about it. Here at 11:15am on a Saturday. Pretty good crowd. I Starting this review before our meal arrives. Inside the decor is dated for certain. But seems clean. Met with a service dog when we walked in. Friendly and older. Not sure who owns it. Love dogs. No concern to us. But odd start. The vibe when you walk in is ultra easy going. “Sit where you want” The menu is old looking with unique offerings and the size of a book. Coffee is a bit strong, but I am good with it. My wife didn’t like the coffee at all. They replaced it with a chocolate milk. Not sure at this point what to expect from the food. Our waitress Angelica was super sweet. I ordered the big breakfast #

★★★★☆ 4.0 Lara Gomez · Jun 2024

Maybe they were short staffed…. Stopped in for breakfast and while the food was good, (I would recommend trying it), everything else fell short. I was surprised to hear they had recently reopened. It felt dated. We had to ask for utensils and wait quite a while to get them (There were no place settings on neighboring tables or I would simply have gotten it myself). They didn’t check on coffee refill. Finally, we asked for 1 refill and got billed for 3. Be aware… They advertise free coffee with breakfast but charge 2.99 for refills. I think they should get rid of the gimmick and just charge for coffee because it would be better than upsetting a customer.
