Food: Food is basic, yet familiar
The Portuguese Sausage and Eggs and Chicken Fried Steak Dinner make for decent comfort food, though diners occasionally lament bland flavors and small portions. The Belgian Waffle Combo boasts a nicer price tag but doesn't break any culinary barriers. Reasonable prices might hint at value, but quality tells another story.
Great Variety
Extensive menu with something for everyone, consistently good.
Okay Taste
Food and service were okay; nothing stood out as exceptional or poor.

Vibe: Crowded nights leave much to desire
The ambiance leans retro diner, garnering mixed feelings. It's not ideal for a romantic evening, especially when the place fills up and service deteriorates, making it more of a noisy stop than a cozy retreat. A lack of buzz during downtime doesn't help its case.
Great Buzz
WOM doesn’t have enough context to give specifics on why the Buzz sway is positively referenced.
Okay Aesthetic
Retro diner ambiance enjoyed by many but not modern or stylish.
Bad Drinks
Drinks are overpriced, negatively affecting overall dining satisfaction.
Perks: Parking perks overshadowed by chaos
Parking earns rave reviews, but the outdoor seating's proximity to noise and chaos detracts from the experience. The service sometimes comes off as slow, creating a frustrating environment, especially for those with kids looking for a quiet meal.
