The food was made quickly and the prompt ice cold water during this heatwave was a godsend before I went home to try to do laundry.

Great pancakes and bacon. V reasonable prices. Nice outside street dining avaiable. If you ask for the rest room and you are disabled you will have problems- accessible through kitchen, down narrow stairs and along a storage area. If you are fully able bodied and can get there then clean and basic.

Mas Avenue Diner is a very cozy place to have breakfast with a friend or family. The service was good and so was the food. No complaints

Avocado toast with home fries with no cheese, I have a food allergy, is my one of best quick choices on a menu!

Love this place. The older gentleman who was running the front reception was so kind and understanding. I was confused that the eggs came with my order, but he helped clarify (though this could be changed on the menu). The food was great, and the environment is somewhat retro. They are open fairly early in the morning so definitely a great place for breakfast.

Good place for breakfast, but also lacking in my two visits. Fast, friendly service at the bar and good, hearty old school breakfast. BUT, I went there two days in a row, and on the first day I ordered coffee with cream but they were out of cream, so I sent the coffee back. On the second day I ordered ice water, but the restaurant had no ice. On both days I was there early- at around 8am. If you sell coffee but have no cream, and you have no ice -that’s simply substandard, especially to survive during this competitive time in the restaurant industry. I’ve already seen 2-3 other local area restautants go out of business in the past couple of years.

First time trying this place as I have walked by it many times and it looked good from the outside. I got the Mexican omelette with potatoes and rice and beans. Sadly, it was lacking flavor in every aspect. My friend also got an omelette and they barely ate any of it because of the lack of flavor. I would advise going to other places nearby.

Nice place to stop for some brunch. Good portions for the price. I got chocolate chip pancakes with blueberries ($12ish), my friends got some french toast with bacon. Very delicious and nice quaint spot.

A classic American breakfast diner! Good food, good service, decent prices. The bacon was extra crispy (which I appreciate) and it seems the locals come here for to-go coffee every morning. Would recommend!

Reliable and reasonably priced. I go here for breakfast and usually order their huevos rancheros which are just about the best anywhere locally. Today, though, I got a big, basic breakfast sandwich to take home. As is usual for Mass Ave Diner, I got good quality at a good price.
