Staff were very friendly. Only thing I wasn't a fan of was the bacon.

Slimy & misleading!

I stopped in with a friend who was visiting from out of town. We weren't very hungry & had reservations later, so we decided to order one $20 meal to share. When we ordered, the server said she would put it on a sharing plate. We assumed she simply meant she would split the meal onto two plates for us, which we appreciated.

When we received the bill, however, we noticed that we had each been charged an additional $6.95 sharing fee - nearly $14 extra in total. The meal itself included 3 eggs, 3 bacon, 2 sausages, home fries, toast, & a coffee. We shared all of the food, & the only'extra' thing provided was putting the same food onto two plates. We also ordered a second coffee so that we could each have one.

We were completely prepared to eat off the same plate & never asked for or agreed to an additional sharing charge. If there was a $6.95 fee for splitting the meal onto two plates, the server should have clearly told us before doing so.

I find the lack of transparency really disappointing &, frankly, pretty shady. An unexpected $14 charge simply because we wanted to share one meal is not something I would have agreed to had I known beforehand. I will not be returning.

One of the best diners I've been to. Food & service is fantastic, great prices. Really enjoyed the Greek omelet & the rest of the food at our table was plentiful & very tasty.

Came here twice, 2 days in a row. Food was delicious, well temperatured, & fairly priced. While the AC couldn't keep up it was trying. But I have to say Ella, our server, was fantastic. She is the reason we came back the second day in a row of our weekend trip.

Such a great find! Calorie per dollar could not find better value & was so so tasty! Loved the savory potatos & their pita was delicious too. All my friends got a variety of food - crepe, french toast, omelette, feast numbers 2 & 4 & everyone loved their food. Service was fast & attentive & friendly & they sat our table for 8 quickly on a busy Saturday brunch!
