On Point. And depending on the Atmosphere and what the time of day it is quite energetic. Sensational Experience. You will have a positive experience from their friendly and positive staff and enjoy some nice and hearty meals from easy cooking classics, to some Not quite easy to cook from by-scratch classics..

Breakfast is excellent. If you like spam, try the spam omelet w/ gravy. Loved the atmosphere, it has the old school diner feel.

A delicious homey place to eat, dine, and relax. They have a diverse array of customers, great service, and really nice old-fashioned decor. The tuna salad was tasty but not presented well. But the decaf coffee was decent and delightful.

Classic American breakfast diner type. Ambience was great, food was delicious!! Especially liked the classic pancakes which had really great mouthfeel and the generous serving of hash browns. We also ordered a German baby pancake, very much worth the wait!! Also enjoyed the Loco Moco, sauce was very flavorful. The couple who owned the place was very hands-on and answered all our questions about the menu items happily. Service excellent!
