In this hotel lobby diner, you can start your morning the right way with an avocado, fried egg and spicy mayo sandwich…served in a hash-brown “bun.” Read more

This modern, airy space captures the zeitgeist of fast-casual cooking with moderate prices in a flexible space. Come for a well-grilled burger or tuna melt, and stay for the excellent house-made pies. Read more

Love the old fashion classic diner decor, especially around the holidays! Diner's been around since the 1940s. But the cheeseburger was underwhelming--good but not good enough for a return visit.

Great burger... I just wish it was on a potato bun. And a perfect well old fashioned

Go for the Patty Melt with Swiss and one of the amazing house made sodas!

Burgers & sandwiches are pretty good. There a few hard working staffers carrying the load of the slackers. It's clear who's working and who isn't. If they drop the dead weight, it might merit the $$$.

This place is a hidden gem among a lot of just okay restaurants. Burgers and sandwiches are tops. Fries are crisp and yummy even when delivered.

Best patty melt I've ever eaten. Excellent onion rings as well.

High quality cheese burger and amazing patty melt. The sweet potato waffle fries are dusted with sugar!

Burgers, tuna melt, shakes, sasparillo, has tv and a small bar for games, and a nice whiskey selection.

No one does a Tuna Melt better than Cassell's in K-Town. It's made by poaching tuna slow and low instead of boiling it, rendering the fish super juicy and fall-apart tender. Read more

Try the double cheese burger 👍🏻

Hamburgers of course are the main deal, but not a bad place for weekend brunch, with full bar.

Small menu; I ordered the egg salad & that wasn't the way to go. Stuck with the burger and the AMAZING house-made sodas.
Billy AmpFebruary 10, 2017
This breakfast sandwich has that 1950's look and taste. Good stuff 🙌
Joey RubinJuly 29, 2016
Burgers, onion rings, fried chicken... This place is the bomb.

Try the han & grilled cheese Sandwich 👅👅👅

Patty melt is insane, sweet potato fries are really insane.
Jenny JJune 2, 2017
Well-seasoned burgers and sweet potato fries to die for 👌
Robert TrioJuly 17, 2022
The breakfast sausage patty is on par with McDonald’s - and that is meant in only the best way.
Nate TinnerJuly 25, 2017
The patty melt's rye bread is a nice touch. Fries aren't bad either.

Save room for dessert, specifically the dulce de leche banana cream pie!

Their signature potato salad is the best I've ever had

Food is great here. But go to their bathroom.. They have a bidet toilet. It's awesome. Worth taking a dump here!

Great Breakfast to start your day.
Benjamin GarciaMay 3, 2015
It's divisive; but I gotta give the horseradish potato salad the thumbs up.
Joe SkrebelsJuly 17, 2019
The breakfast burrito is the size of a bus, but it is a bus that needs hot sauce.

Cheese burger with american and grilled onions

Nothing wrong with the cheeseburger, do it

Don't get the 2/3 unless your really hungry....

Not the same old Cassell's everyone knew; this pretentious iteration of Cassell’s is the former restaurant in name only.
