Matt FleigFebruary 14, 2015Great food, wonderful family owned and run restaurant, diner fare that is better than your typical diner, great special entrees. A favorite go-to-place.Upvote4Downvote
Awesome variety of eggs Benedict, especially the delicious eggs Alaska (crab, albeit faux-style with surimi). Sneak in at the right times for breakfast, and you can even get vanilla porter with it!Upvote1Downvote
Jamaican Me Crazy coffee and mimosas. Mediterranean Omelette, Pumpkin Pancakes, or Banana Bread French Toast for eats. If you want them all, go for the combo. Can't go wrong with breakfast all day!

KaeLyn RichDecember 17, 2012Some vegan lunch & dinner items marked on the menu. Typical vegan breakfast diner options. The spinach tofu burger is great, but the dressing isn't vegan, so leave it off.UpvoteDownvote
