Reviews
We ordered a variety of items. The plain oatmeal came with milk and brown sugar (fruit is an option, but I skipped it). I also ordered a side of ham – it was edible, but a bit tough and dry.
Others had an egg and ham omelet with home fries. The omelets were cooked perfectly, but the home fries were not. They tasted like boiled potatoes cut up and placed on the plate. They really need to be fried longer and seasoned – maybe with onions or peppers – to add flavor.
Another order was scrambled eggs with bacon and home fries. Same issue with the home fries, but the bacon was cooked perfectly. All egg meals came with toast or a biscuit; everyone chose toast, and the sourdough was a nice bonus.
Unfortunately, we won’t be going back – not because of the home fries, but because a non-service dog was allowed inside the restaurant. Allowing pets in a food establishment raises serious cleanliness concerns. That was a dealbreaker for us. They must be regulars- because they were talking it up with the staff. But that doesn’t make it right. No dogs in a restaurant.
The worst part was the “home fries” because they looked to be boiled instead of fried and the only hint that they were not was that they tasted of oil. The Spanish omelette a prepackaged “cheese” slice in the middle but otherwise the eggs were fine. The biscuit and gravy was okay but nothing about it seemed frest and probably came out of a can. The biscuit was dense and doughy and the gravy was luke warm.
For a dinner that has been around for so long you would think they would have made the atmosphere a bit more warm and inviting but they have not. Probably should have known what I was in for when walking in but I was hoping for at least a little bit better.
It’s a diner, their decor is not fancy, but it’s clean and their food and friendly atmosphere and waitstaff more than make up for that.
I wish I had more pictures ✨⭐️✨
We drove by yesterday and checked for a holiday notice, there was none. We planned to come at 1pm as their hours advertised were until 2pm.
They were closed when we got there.
Not coming back to a place with no work ethic, they completely lacked planning.
Great food and menus selection and the service is awesome.
