WILL NEVER BE COMING AGAIN!!!!
Being a big fan of Turkey Reubens I was excited to try a new location’s version, especially since they do not call them ‘Rachels’, which is a version that uses coleslaw instead of sauerkraut. A terrible idea.
Put my order in over the phone, going with a turkey reuben (comes with fries), a grilled cheese sandwich, and a basket of onion rings. Coming to a total of a little under $28, a pretty good deal.
While I was not inside very long, I will say I loved the classic diner atmosphere. Mini jukeboxes at the tables, a smattering of arcade machines at the entrance, colored neon lighting and mirrors inside, it was a nice little nostalgia trip.
Back home opening everything up I was very excited as it smelled great and looked pretty amazing, I couldn’t help but snack on a few onion rings and take a bit of my grilled cheese almost immediately. The rings were the panko breaded type, my favorite, as they hold up the best during travel and have the best flavor profile of any onion ring. Their accompanying Russian dressing dip was a nice touch too. The grilled cheese was a bit on the soft side, likely due to being wrapped up so tightly, but the flavor was still there and I polished off both halves in record time. So far so good.
Sadly, the turkey reuben, my most anticipated part of the meal, was… well, let me explain. On top of also being soft like the grilled cheese was, due to the packaging being to well insulated, their flavor was nothing short of sour. The kraut to meat to cheese ration was skewed far in favor of the sauerkraut, which itself was the most sour sauerkraut I have ever tasted. It was over powering, and I could hardly stand the taste. I couldn’t even detect the turkey or Swiss cheese it was so strong, and because there was so much it had the added effect of making the texture of the sandwich very fibrous. Not a pleasant experience.
All said, the majority of the meal was good, the price was good, the diner was cool looking, and heck, even the fries that came with the reuben were yummy. Just, tone down the amount of sauerkraut, and we might actually have something there. So technically I’d give this location a 3.5 out of 5, but google doesn’t do half stars, so I’ll round up to a 4 for the nostalgia.
terrible!! The waiter spilled coffee on the table and just walked away. He didn’t clean it, or apologize!! This place has gone down hill. Too bad!! Use to be a great place to eat.
