Walked in here one morning with 3 hungry, frustrated kids a little over a year ago. Our server, Nico, was so patient and kind with our little ones and helped shift their moods for the better! It’s now “our spot” for whenever we have something to celebrate or just want to have a nice start to our day. Our youngest kiddo brags to the older ones about getting to go while they are in school! The portions are huge, and everything is delectable. The falafel is my absolute favorite, but the grilled blueberry muffin is a close second. Nico continues to be our favorite server- he’s incredibly knowledgeable and accommodating about the menu and has only ever recommended dishes that have turned out to be AMAZING. My youngest ordered pancakes recently and they were decorated for her which was super sweet! It’s cozy and old school vibes, and is a staple in my family’s world ever since our first visit. Even when they’re busy and we don’t get a chance to chat up our servers, our orders are quick, delicious, and accurate. Definitely be sure to ask the staff for their recommendations if you’re hopeful for something yummy and not sure what you want- I’ve never regretted asking their opinions when I was feeling indecisive!

Very disappointed in my breakfast here. Wanted a good diner within walking distance of home but this isn’t it. We ordered coffee, blueberry pancakes, home fries, bacon, sausage and toast. Food came quickly which was a blessing but the toast was burnt and butterless. The home fries were dismal at best. Bland and slimy were the best bites and the worst were completely raw potato. Photo attached. Sent the toast back and didn’t bother with the home fries since the better looking ones on other peoples plates still looked soft and flavorless. Pancakes were big but expensive. Three pancakes were 9.99, plus 1.99 for blueberries and real syrup is an extra 1.99 which I requested and paid for but never received. Table syrup is in an Aunt Jemima. Service was spotty but they were getting busy as we ate.

Quality, home cooked style cooking! Fun diner atmosphere. Clean. Lively. Courteous and attentive staff. Had take our order and server even checked it before handing it over!! So appreciate. Just beware and suggest- call for take out vs using Toast. HUGE 33% markup for all items when ordering pickup through Toast. We called and placed our order and got their in house prices; rather give that amount to the servers than the toast app. We realize this is becoming the standard everywhere for pickup. So stop in this place for a smile!
