Old style ’50s diner with great decor and good prices. The food comes fast! Super good short-order grill food. My wife and I eat there frequently and have always had a good experience.

This is a favorite local breakfast spot when I want a nice big omelet. The cooks know how to make them soft yet hold all the meat and veggies even without cheese. I do not recommend the biscuit n gravy as it doesn’t taste homemade or fresh although still not bad. The waitress was super. The atmosphere would be great for vintage 50’s look and style except music too loud. The outside needs be maintained but I will continue to patronize for their breakfast. I need to try their dinner because their cooks are good.

Had a saddening experience today. I’ve been here several times before and had good experiences with the waitresses. However, I came and tried to get what I usually order, the mickey mouse pancake, but the waiter wouldn’t let me cause it’s on the kids menu. So, I got pancakes instead, which were less money than the mickey mouse ones, which doesn’t make sense. The place is just kinda sticky and the food was just alright. Wasn’t offered any boxes by the waiter. Safe to say I won’t be coming back.

This place was very busy for a diner. My friend and I went here for a 45 min lunch break. We told the waiter that we have to leave in about 30mins. He brought the food in just under 30 mins and we had to take it to go. I didn’t like their reheated food which I had for dinner. I might’ve given 5 stars if I got to eat fresh food.

50’s themed diner with a lot of nostalgia. Food is amazing with huge portions! All staff are very nice and accommodating, even the cooks. Brandon was very humble, but he makes a great omelet. Kid’s meals are served in a classic car and come with a free sundae. We love going here with the kids. The servers are awesome interacting with kids at any age. They are also working on a Kids Eat FREE Tuesdays with purchase of an adult meal. I would highly recommend

The breakfast was the best breakfast I’ve had in a very long time. The portions are huge! The hash browns are delicious and the the pancakes are bigger than the plate they are served on! Brandon, the cook, does an outstanding job! Don’t miss out on this hidden gem!

Really great service, food is out quick. Milkshakes are top notch! Eh, food is not so much. It’s a cool themed atmospheric restaurant.

This place needs actual management. The entire place is filthy. Doors, windows, floors, walls, docor, restrooms. Ceiling to floor dirt, and I’m sure the staff areas are equally dirty. Watched staff pick up dropped food from kitchen window and place at on plate for service to customer. This, while eating nothing even slightly good. We really wanted to make this a regular stop. Unfortunately, we’ll never be back. Such a cool building. Although, without parked cars, it looks almost abandoned from the outside. Would love to participate in car shows. We have zero clue how anyone rates this place well at all. I knew from one look at the front door that we should turn and leave. A group behind us, they did turn and leave at the doors. I regret our patronage. Please, please fix this place!!
