We love this diner. The mozzarella sticks are fantastic! (They are not very dietetic, but, it is cheese after all.) the people who work there are great, but, they did a remodel and the new benches are way too upright and not enough room between the bench and the table. Sort of sad but we still like them.

We came across this place on the way back from the Highlands Natural Pool. It was under renovations when we came in but so far it was looking good. The decor is modern and clean. When it's finished, it will look beautiful. They had a nice variety of food at affordable prices. The meatball parm hero was pretty big and had a row of whole meatballs on both sides. It was a generous portion and so big I had to eat with a fork & knife. It wasn't the best meatball parm I've had, but it was good. The French fries were nice and crunchy. It was a great value for $13.99 My husband had at reuben sandwich and he enjoyed it. The service was great. The owner or manager even took the time to stop by our table to make sure everything was ok.

My husband ordered the corn beef hash well done with eggs over easy and hashbrowns. It was hands-down the best corned beef hash we’ve ever had! I had the French dip sandwich and that also was beyond amazing. We also had a side of their special cinnamon pumpkin pancakes which were great, more like a dessert than breakfast. We went at lunchtime and the place was busy but they have plenty of seating. Our server Marissa was very attentive and accommodating. The whole meal was great and we are looking forward to going back!
