    One of my favorite diner experiences in Seattle that includes a nice drink selection. I usually get the Philly with a salad. Some great breakfast options too.

    Great spot for breakfast with kids - super accommodating and friendly. Try the kids blueberry pancakes and adult corned beef hash!

    Great atmosphere! Good food, friendly service. Came here opening weekend and there was a long wait on food. Seems like they worked the kinks out now. Jalapeño Poppers are the shit, beeteedubs.

    Solid diner feels, great sassy/sweet staff, open literally all the time. Best diner on the hill! Can’t go wrong... unless you show up at 3am and expect the food to be perfect, KAREN

    100% worth the wait. Writing this tip on the 4th day of service. Takes quite a bit for your food to come but the prices are great. Super yummy and great location. Soon to become a Seattle icon!

    There are diner-style sandwiches (Philly cheesesteaks) and burgers (Juicy Lucy), seriously fatty apps like the "Beecher’s Deep Fried Cheese Curds" shown above, or fried mac & cheese wedges. Read more

    Being 24/7 your experiences at 2am will vary compared to 7am. I trying to get in for the morning at least once a week. Toni and the other staff are awesome!

    Brunch is much better when you can have it at any hour of any day. Being able to watch all the World Cup games *while* eating brunch was friggin tremendous.

    With all the new junk popping up on the Hill, this is one of the few places that feels like old-Seattle. And the first real 24hr joint on Capitol Hill in 11 years.

    Such good mimosas, bartenders are really awesome and food is basic dive bar food, but they have half sizes which is good if you don’t have a large appetite.

    Didn't expect the brass monkey to be good, but was pleasantly surprised. Open on holidays this is one of the places I like to have brunch *any* day.

    I enjoyed the huge bloody Mary cocktail and giant mimosa. And almost all menu items can be made vegetarian.

    You can't go wrong with the El Capitan Omelette. Bacon, goat cheese, red pepper, and onion. Need I say more?

    Food is surprisingly good. A little dodgy between 3-6a, but, hey, they're open. Weekday breakfast happy hour from 6-9a is a great deal.

    The country fried steak is huge, you'll definitely need to loosen up your belt another slot after eating it. Had great service, and love the atmosphere.

    Good food, nice staff, and an unfortunate insistence upon storing beer kegs in the supposedly wheelchair accessible restrooms. WTF?

    Meh. Dinghy diner with your standard fare, bar attached has a long draft list. Non happy hour prices aren’t cheap ($15 for a wrap)

    The driest hamburger that I've ever eaten. Skip the over priced burger and just get an order of crispy tater tots

    If you like strange things showing up on your plate that looks like a chicken foot than DEFINITELY get something fried.

    The "Lost" in the name is in reference to your order being Lost for an hour or two between placing and devouring it.
