WOW what a SPECTACULAR lunch! Katie is the best server ever! Katie made me the BEST cherry flavored Diet Coke I've ever had. And Katie never let my drink stay empty. Katie was fun to talk to we all enjoyed our lunch. It is amazing the food quality and quantity, just look closely at the photos. The BLT was the same size Paul Bunyan used to get. I ordered the sirloin tip on noodles, absolutely the the most tender I've ever had. But the most amazing was the biggest order I've ever seen, and enough for leftovers. We can't wait to return to see Katie again soon.

My visit here was friendly and interesting. First, the coffee was very good, noticeably better (and cheaper) than Perkins - smooth yet robust. The booths looked like a throwback from the saloon era - but painted over to repurpose them, with the seat and back pads removed so patrons sit on hard wood. That said, the booths were not uncomfortable. I had our server - Katie - order for me, and she returned a few minutes later with a huge plate sized blueberry pancake. I love pancakes, and thought this was perfect. Then she placed a huge plate next to me containing 2 thick sliced bacon strips, 2 sausages, and a huge serving of cheese encrusted hash browns smothered in fried onions. I ate more than half the pancake and took everything else home - I'm and old man, and had just been served my full daily allotment of calories in one meal. This is by no means a complaint - Katie said she served me "The Challenge" - the first item on the menu - aptly named. The pancake was slightly mushy inside, but the blueberries were good and fresh. The reheated at home hashbrowns received two thumbs up from my wife, and the sausages and bacon were good. My friend ordered the Gyro Omelette, which he said was very good. The restroom could have been a little cleaner, but wasn't at all offensive. This place is on my recommended list.

One of the Best Breakfast places I've EVER been to. Straight delicious- huge portions, and amazing flavor. Go out of your way to come eat here! Chorizo Benedict or Pork Belly Skillet are my Go-Tos!

My friend really hyped up this place on the drive over. He's a real foodie. He did not over sell the food. Incredible! Best breakfast I've ever had at a restaurant! It's not just about the portion size but quality ingredients, great cuts of vegetables and meat, not cooked with oils. Crispy, tasty, deliciously amazing!

We ordered the chocolate chip pancake. Lots of chips and fluffy. The coffee had a werid bitter taste even with tons of sugar and creamer. The country fried steak with eggs over easy covered in a sausage grave served with extra crispy harsh browns. The clear star of the show. The photo only shows my plate I spilt it with my husband: the plates are huge plenty for two people from one plate. We also order the gyro omelette. It was huge. It was good, sorry no photo to add.

This is a restaurant from the past. Good old fashion family dinner. The food is great, the portions are huge and the prices are very reasonable. We had wonderful service as well, something that is rare in today's world. Will definitely be back. While I didn't try any Greek food this trip, they have some on the menu which looks interesting. Don't judge thus restaurant by the interior, simple and clean. It the food and service that will bring me back.

We had the pleasure of dining here this morning for the first time and let me just say this is the new go-to spot of me. We had an amazing back and forth with our waitress Katie, who had some very thoughtful and sincere suggestions for what to have. Her advice was on-point because everything was delicious, came out quick, and exceeded expectations. The value is amazing here as well, everything in this photo was about 60 bucks. The service we received was the best I have experienced in ages and we will absolutely be back many more times and recommend dining here to anyone in the area.
