Description

An old‑school, homey diner with a broad, well-priced menu—breakfast all day, salads, burgers and Mexican options—popular with locals and evening crowds around the bar and pool tables. Food earns frequent praise for flavor and value, though kitchen inconsistencies and long waits occur. Service varies from warm and attentive to inattentive, and a smoking area can affect the non‑smoking section. Guests recommend checking hours before visiting.

Warm and friendly place, staff were very kind and polite. Our order took over 45 minutes for bacon and eggs. Was tasty but not great. Sounded like the kitchen was having a day . Service: Dine in Meal type: Breakfast Price per person: $10–20 Food: 4 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 4

This place was recommended to us by a friend. Big city us visiting a small town so the choices were limited. Plus, we are a little spoiled. This place is an old school diner with pool tables on one end, a bar with tables in the middle, and another seating area on the other end. I was a little nervous, but I realized the place was clean, and the server all alone that night was great. Food was fresh. Tea was fresh. It was nothing fancy, but the California salad was good, quesadilla was great, and chips and salsa were tasty. Only caveat is it is a smoking restaurant, so be aware if you are sensitive.

Food is good enough kind of bland but otherwise good. Service in the morning is Great. Evening staff are all friendly but slow in taking orders just very slow. They are kept busy waiting on people in the bar area. Was somewhat frustrating Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner
