Today was our first visit since the new owners took over. They’re doing a fantastic job of keeping the same feel of the place while making some positive changes! The family was very welcoming and made us feel like we were at home. The new cook is a very kind young man who took the time to make sure we were all happy with our meals. I was pleasantly surprised at the vegan options and my little one loved her vegan pancakes. We can’t wait to see what exciting things they do with the place and will definitely be back soon!

Found out this exciting news breakfast place in Rochester. Very affordable and remix of modern and old looking Resturant. The hostess is very sweet and explain each dishes nicely.

Ordered the Funky plate. I have never eaten something so Greasy and bland in my life.

From the outside you might wonder if it’s worth going in. I found the curb appeal lacking but when you enter you are greeted with a comfortable and homey sight. Menus are located on the wall at each seat. The service was fast and friendly. Coffee was sub par but I was blown away with the food and was able to try several things. Nutella stuffed French toast, eggs Benedict (of which they have 100 different varieties that rotate weekly), eggs and home fries, and one of their signature sandwiches called a MoFo. This is a sandwich in which the bun is actually two grilled cheese sandwiches on Texas toast. Incredible food. I highly recommend looking past the unfriendly outside and entering for a delicious meal.

Nice, small and cozy diner to pop in and grab some breakfast to start off your day. The setting diner gives you a very old school vibe. The staff was very friendly. The menu is freaking loaded with tons of options where even the pickiest of individuals could find something. The food was good and filling, they give out a good amount of food. Everything is very affordable as well.

I was excited to come back to this place when they started offering vegan options. It’s an entire menu with vegan pancakes, French toast, benedicts, omelette and frittatas. Can’t wait to try everything!!

This is an excellent greasy spoon type of place. If you go here expecting anything different then you’ll be disappointed. But if you go here knowing you’re going to get some delicious, probably unhealthy food straight off the griddle then you’ll be satisfied.

My family loves this place, the friendly atmosphere and great food. If you weren’t there this Sunday you missed out! How many owners do you see cooking on the line?

Their “frittata” was just a random pile of ingredients with two pieces of lightly toasted white bread. Ordered one which was advertised as vegan, (that is, the veggie fritata which was explicitly under a vegan section of the menu and states vegan eggs in picture #2) and it very much seemed like chicken eggs…
