The food was excellent - the poached eggs, potatoes, and thick sliced rye toast were all delicious. My companion ordered the Irish Benedict and was extremely satisfied as well. This is now my new favorite casual breakfast spot!

This happened on a Tuesday. It doesn't seem like the same place I remember from my childhood.

The only downside was the parking situation, but overall it was definitely a 5-star experience.

The omelets are quite large as well. I do have a few minor complaints. First, they don’t offer a gluten-free bread or toast option. While that didn't affect me, it did matter to a couple of people in my group. Second, a side of corned beef hash costs $8. While it may be a large portion, that price seems steep for a side dish, which is why I passed on it. I assume it would have been excellent, just like everything else. Lastly, their syrup is just the regular National brand "pancake syrup," and although they offer real maple syrup, it comes with a $3 upcharge. Despite these small issues, the food was fantastic, and the service was outstanding—extremely friendly, helpful, and accommodating when it came to dietary restrictions (aside from the lack of gluten-free toast) and food allergies. They were happy to make reasonable substitutions when possible. Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience. Five of us ate quite well for only $81.

Good old fashion diner feel, HUGE portions of food and beyond reasonable prices. The staff is really down to earth, personable and always have a smile for you. I can't recommend this place enough Parking: There is street parking and you can usually park pretty close.

Seems like it should have been fixed since there was no one else waiting for food. Place looked clean enough and the waitress was nice so no issues there. The eggs were good, the bacon was good but the potatos weren't very good at all. Tasteless and barely warm. The coffee was terrible. The french toast was pretty good, nice and moist but it could have used real maple syrup. Not the end of the world thou
