Their display case of beautiful desserts blew me away upon walking in! I didn't have much time on lunch break but I decided to grab some Manhattan clam chowder, which was recommended and absolutely delicious! I also had one of the best tiramisu slices I have ever had!

I stopped here on a Friday night around 7:30 pm with my husband after attending a viewing at Shooks Funeral Home. We are not from the area and noticed it on our way there and decided to give it a try. At first when I saw the price listed for most of the non-breakfast items I didn’t realize that it included a soup and a choice of coleslaw or pasta salad. I ordered a Napolitano Panini, the matzoh ball soup, and the pasta salad. I was extremely satisfied with each item I thought the soup and pasta salad was really delicious. When the main meal arrived I knew right away I was going to need to go box! The Panini was delicious and I liked that the french fries were served in a little dish, just the right around to have some and take some home with my leftover panini. My husband ordered the Rub

The waiter was setting the tables for the next day during dinner time, and I noticed her touching the heads of every single fork and knife on the tables with her bare hands. As for our food, I didn’t even touch it. The milkshake turned out to be just cold chocolate milk, and the chicken fingers were tasteless and looked unappetizing. However, the pastrami sandwiches were particularly concerning; they appeared to have been prepared a long time in advance. Just look at that meat, bread and pathetic waffle fries.

★★★★★ 5.0 Susan O'Neil · Jan 2026

We had a wonderful lunch with friends today! The atmosphere was friendly and pleasant. Our server, Maged, was very prompt and upbeat! He always has a big smile and we joke around with him. They have a large menu and offer free refills on beverages. We had a delicious grilled chicken salad. It was very large and filling! We loved it! 😊

★★★★★ 5.0 Jacqueline Balza · Jan 2025

A clean and vibrant diner with a lively atmosphere and outstanding service. Our server was incredibly friendly and, despite a small mix-up with my order, went above and beyond to ensure I felt valued as a customer.
