Items that are diner staples are fine, burgers, fries, basic pastas etc. Try to get something uncommon and it's hit or miss.

Our mains we also yummy, and the Cesar salad has a nice rich homemade dressing on it (not the artificial junk you get at other places) it really made the salad! We even got dessert (ya we went all out!) the chocolate chip oreo cheesecake was OUT OF THIS WORLD, perfect texture and so decadent! Nothing but happy tummies from us, 2 thumbs up! Can't wait to...
