| - I truly adore this place. Only wish I lived closer.
The atmosphere is amazing. It's bustling on a weekday lunch. Smiling faces, engaged conversations, servers walking up and down the aisles, a small line of people waiting at the front for their tables, expensive looking espresso maker at front.....
The place is filled with large and small booths, dark wood panels, and dim lighting. I would describe the Senator as a classy diner.
They have a big menu but I settled for the Senator breakfast which came with 2 eggs, challah toast, 5 slices of bacon, potatoes, beans, and coffee. All this for $8! An excellent breakfast deal.
Let me tell you a secret. This is the best diner coffee I have ever had. Seriously - you need to try this.
My over medium eggs were perfect with just a bit of runny yolk and not overdone. Challah toast was slightly sweet and delicious!!! I could eat 10 slices if they gave it to me.
Service was super friendly but super slow. I had the time but I saw some customers wait a long time for their order and couldn't even enjoy it when it did come because they needed to get back to work. Not the place to come for lunch if you have an hour lunch break. Because it literally took 45 minutes for the food to come after the order. I didn't mind though. This is the place to come to enjoy great food at great prices with great company. Or if you don't have company, you can easily strike conversations with people around you. Some of their booths are awfully close to one another. My booth was literally side by side with a couple of guys and I could hear their entire conversation.
I was super happy after lunch. My only regret is, why did it take me so long to discover this place? Once again, thanks Yelpers!
