Most Disliked
Some diners have voiced that while the food is generally good, certain dishes, like the burgers, can occasionally be overcooked. It’s also noted that during peak hours, especially on weekends, the diner can get quite busy, leading to longer wait times for food. A few patrons have expressed minor disappointments regarding the need for more variety in side options. However, most agree that the overall positive experience outweighs these occasional drawbacks, as the quality of food and service remains a strong draw.

I live down the Block and have been coming here for a few years. I can honestly say my food has always been good and the service has been great, always with a smile and very friendly. The club sandwich combo is absolutely delicious and one if my favorites. I've grown fond of the ladies there, they are always sweet. If you have a problem you should look within because they treat everyone with courtesy and professionalism.

Food is always consistent here. Fries, burgers, chili cheese fries. The service we always get from Amie is an instant classic. Thank you for always being happy

I honestly didn't expect too much from this restaurant, but I was very surprised at the quality of the food especially the chili cheese fries. They were some of the best chili cheese fries I have ever had. The burger was good, but nothing special. perhaps the meat was just a little overcooked, but not too much. I would definitely go back though.

Must try!! Had my first breakfast burrito here while visiting from FL. The size is enough for two meals, for a regular sized human. It was made to order so, nice and hot. I'm Mexican and enjoy spicy food, therefore very happy about their salsa. It's fresh and medium hotness. Hope to go back again!!
