Today my boyfriend, our 1 year old son and I went here to have lunch. We walked in and it was empty aside from 2 or 3 tables. Didn’t smell like food was cooking like any other restaurant, just kinda gave creepy hospital vibes. That wasn’t the problem I have. The server, the receipt said “Gulay” was her name, was the most impatient and unfriendly server I’ve ever had waiting on me in my life. She asked what we wanted to drink and before I could finish and tell her what I wanted for the baby she rolled her eyes and walked away. When she came back I asked what kind of juice they had, she sighed and started naming them slowly and with attitude. We finally got to the ordering part after about 30+ minutes of waiting patiently. She was so impatient, she kept making sounds and making us feel rushed. My boyfriend and I forgot to ask for the coleslaw and pickle with our sandwiches so I asked the other waitress and she said they usually give it out but she was gonna say something just incase for us, we didn’t get it at all and when I asked about it she not only was a B$&@H about it but she only brought one when I asked for both of ours. I put the baby’s order in first because I knew he was about to start getting antsy soon, but for some reason the jalapeño poppers that we ordered another 30 minutes later came out 10 minutes before the baby’s chicken fingers and fries, and the chicken was burnt. When I said something I got even more attitude from her and she even waved her hand by her side in an impatiently and rude manner. She said “so what do u want? Something else!?” And I said “I mean just some new ones that aren’t burnt would be nice. I’m sorry and I appreciate you…..” she huffed and walked away. She brought back more eventually and wanted me to check them before she walked away, they were still a little hard but not as bad as the first ones. I also got a chicken panini melt it was dry and flavorless, she forgot my brown gravy and brought it out after I asked and it was grey. She messed up the toppings on my boyfriends burger, and it was just all in all a terrible experience. When the baby tried taking a bite of the newer tenders she was fighting the damn thing to bite the piece off. Just awful. She doesn’t belong in...

We Visited this establishment in the evening. The person who greeted us seemed friendly however the waitress, she should find another occupation. We were only there once before and that was years back so we weren't familiar with the menu. She took our drink water and when she came back to take the order we weren't quite ready. She did come back a couple times and again we apologized and said we weren't ready yet. The way she walked away from the table and the expression on her face seemed to get worse. She looked very much annoyed. We thought about leaving but decided to stay. The food was not good. A portion was very overcooked. We had to walk up to her to ask for things that we needed. She was too busy cleaning, breaking things down for the night. Another worker was washing the floor on the opposite side of where we sat! The smell and the fumes were too much! Years back I was a waitress and yes there are stages of cleaning and breaking things down for the night but some of the tasks were done once the customers left and you never ignored your tables let alone made them feel unwelcomed. We will...

Good Evening Google Family. This is my first time visiting this diner. I have heard about it but I never visited until today. Today is my 62nd Birthday and I came here to celebrate. It felt funny eating by myself because my mom was always with me. I enjoyed my meal. I had waffles and scrapple with sugar free syrup. I ate up and then of course I needed to use the rest room. It was clean. After I paid, I visited the rest room again. When I returned, my coat was gone and my glasses. The waitress had put them on the coat rack. I thought someone had stolen my coat. The owner asked me what I was looking for and I said my coat. He asked the waitress and she came over and told me where my coat was, she hung it up on the coat rack. And my glasses were in my pocket. She thought I had left. Anyway I collected my items and then I really left. I had a good restaurant experience today. Don't forget to work out, be fit and Fabulous!!!!

So I waited a while before posting because I was taught that if you can't say something nice, then don't say anything at all. I know many people don't follow that, but I'm comfortable with it. I've never been here before but have always been curious. I was in the mood for breakfast for dinner. The place was clean and the staff was nice. Food looked good and I got something simple - blueberry pancakes with scrapple (which was nicely thick cut), and hot chocolate. For me, there simply wasn't any taste to the food. Pancakes were really dry and syrup didn't help - they just had no taste. Neither did the scrapple. Hot chocolate was good though! Hubby had more: blueberry pancakes with strawberry topping, over-easy eggs and bacon. We've had great dinner food before, this just didn't make up for us so we probably will not be returning.
