Stumbled across this diner during a long drive, looked cute, retro 50s was clean(as was bathroom) breakfast was reasonably priced, food was above average and their hot sauce is amazing. Coffee was just OK. Server wasn't the most personable but could have been worse. Great visit overall.

I had the pleasure of being seated in Will's section. The food was great. I got a curd burger (with french fries and broccoli cheddar soup), my daughter got a cheeseburger, and my son got a mickey mouse pancake. No complaints and a quiet table while we ate & will was on top of every need. This was my first experience but won't be my last. We paid between $10-20 per person including drinks.

The service here is annoyingly inconsistent, with frequent small mistakes like wrong drinks or long waits—so common they’ve become expected. When it’s not one thing, it’s another. We came back because the food is decent for the price, but it’s not worth it when things are forgotten or we get the wrong order entirely. It’s not terrible, but it’s consistently disappointing and not worth the time, especially since we don’t go out often. Unfortunately, we won’t be back.

My wife fell outside during the last snowstorm and went to urgent care. She hurt herself really bad and hurt her back. Staff didn't care and Gus came in and they didn't even tell him. He didn't even come by, which means the staff didn't say anything, even though we told them... we haven't visited since then. We came back today and the waitress got our drinks and then we where ignored. Everyone else was getting served and we just sat there, waiting to order. I hate saying anything bad about this place, because their food is good.... but since both of these things happen, probably will not be back. My wife still has back problems and they don't care. They only care about their regulars, because we left and no one cared that we walked out! Just sad to see the service and customer service go downhill so fast. Use to be a great place, but starting to show they don't care about paying customers or their actual business anymore. Please take this review as a warning, care about customer service in this day and age. Service is number 1.

Rock ‘n’ roll we all love it and this is a diner just like it used to be.
Service is excellent and choice of pies is interesting. It’s good.
Dion Beyoncé is fine. You can take your kids. I simply wish they would have music a little bit more from the timeframe of what this restaurant is all about other than that is fine. You’ll enjoy it and they have good specials there. That’s my highest compliment to them is that they have well priced meals for lunch and dinner on their specials with the prices of everything today if you’re on a budget, you’ll like it.

I had just moved to the area on Tuesday last week. My boyfriend and I decided to come in for breakfast on Sunday. We walked in saw the sign that stated host will seat you. We asked the man behind the counter if they would seat us or if they would like us to seat ourselves. He replied take any spot you like. We picked a booth in the back and suddenly we have 3 or 4 people yelling that ones broken. No signage anywhere stating it was not to be used. We pick another seat.

10 minutes goes by before someone asks what we would like to drink. I have a medical condition and cannot eat a regular size meal so I asked the waitor if I could have something off the kids menu. It was an immediate no. I explained why I asked for something off the kids menu and if it was not OK I would just pick something off the regular menu. The waitor was unfortunately rude in his response but said it was fine.

By the time our food arrives I am on the verge of tears from the interaction. I felt ashamed and embarrassed for something that I cannot help. The food was sub par at best. I ate about half my meal before bursting into tears at our table and excusing myself to the car. We will not be back again.

First of all, the food was out of this world. Big Omelette with home fries for me, and my wife had the Gyro skillet with hash browns. Service and atmosphere is a different story. They seated us literally next to the Dyson stick vac, the to go boxes, and the high chairs. Every serve person interrupted our breakfast and moving items around us. They lifted dirty booster seat over my wife’s head and her food at one point. Too bad. I would have loved to given them all 5 stars.

We arrived for breakfast and were quickly greeted and seated. Our order was taken shortly after and our food arrived shortly after. The food was delish and looked appealing. The waitress came by and asked how the food was and if needed anything. We did not. We ate and enjoyed ourselves.
The atmosphere was friendly and busy. All the staff there that morning worked together to made sure everything ran smooth and everyone was well taken care of.
The menu was decent. I felt it could have used more pancake and French toast choices for breakfast. The menu had decent choices for eggs, omelets/skillets.
Overall the kiddo and I enjoyed ourselves and we found a restaurant that my picky kiddo enjoyed.

Been here a couple times. It's an alright diner. Went for a late night dinner a week ago i think 12/21. Ordered the "Country Fried Steak and Eggs" and I was missing the hashbrown. Told the server about it, she went to check with the cook in the kitchen and came back stating it doesn't come with hashbrown...I swear all breakfast entrees come with hashbrowns, but I haven't ordered this entree in a while, so I took her word for it. Checked the menu online when I got home and it clearly stated the meal comes with hashbrowns. This was dissapointing. Maybe it was late (meaning like 7:30pm) and the cook didn't want to make it?? I'm not sure why they would say it doesn't come with the meal. Just wanted to point this out to management.
