“ Very nice place. Inside it has a very 50s feel, the menu has fun names, and my food was pretty good. I ordered the chicken tenders with fries. The fries were delicious, and the chicken dipped in buffalo sauce was good too ”
“ This small diner is very clean, the well thought out design makes for a wonderful dining experience with lighting, paint and furniture items showcased as was typical of the 1950s vibe they successfully achieved. The walls are adorned with advertisings and small items and pictures reminding one of what was a simpler time. The food is typical American Diner offerings but the quality of the food and ingredients are above average and even though the food came out quickly it was excellent. We had eggs, hash brown potatoes, sausage and french toast . Excellent and well worth the trip vs visiting ither natiinal branded restaurants. ”
“ My husband and I have been here before and loved it so we couldn’t wait to bring our son, daughter-in-law and 3 year old grandson. It did not disappoint. Heather, our server, was so friendly and knowledgeable. She made sure our grandson was happy as well as the adults. My grandson loved the fact that his lunch was served in a car. He had grilled cheese, the rest of us had, tuna sandwich, tuna melt, and two of their burgers. The food came out quickly and was very good. Prices were reasonable. E love coming here and will definitely be back. ”
“ GLUTEN FREE OPTIONS AVAILABLE! (this is very hard to notice on the menu) A small, classy, delicious diner! I love the 50's vibe and walls covered with vintage Coca-Cola paraphernalia. Service was extremely quick and very attentive. Always nearby but gave us time. Prices are great! ~$30 for 2 including 20% tip. And the Knuckle Sandwich burger I got was DELICIOUS. SO good. I got it on a gluten free bun which was also delicious!! I'm not sure what type they get but it was very high quality. I will definitely be back to get the same burger again sometime. My wife got the turkey melt and also loved it! For what it is, this place is 5 stars. Just understand that it's a small 50's style diner. A really delicious, nicely decorated, and welcoming diner. Small-town feel, no micro-brews and micro-greens, no meat-free meats. I expected no gluten free options but they do have them and they are delicious! At any rate I wouldn't take my vegan brother or vegetarian dad here but I'll definitely be back! ”
