| - Let me just state for some that I did not come here because of DDD and no, I did not try what was featured on the show. I came here...well, simply because I was hungry and thirsty.
Upon walking in this place makes you feel like you are in the wrong place, that is until you are warmly greeted by the bartender. We didn't even have our coats off and were asked if we wanted something to drink. We quickly settled on a draft and were brought menus. Now, people, this place has a very small menu. On top of the small menu there are specials that appear to change often. A note to people also is that this place specializes in breakfast, half of the menu is for breakfast fare. I almost ordered a special but decided to go with something from the menu. I got the BLT and a side of fries; my friend got a cheese quesadilla and onion rings.
This is the nice part, everything is cooked fresh when you order it! My BLT was amazing. The bacon was crispy, tomatoes and lettuce were fresh, and the bread was just toasted. The fries are fresh cut. So no frozen here, cut and then thrown in to fry. With the light touch of mayo on the sandwich it surely hit the spot. The quesadilla and onion rings looked good too, but I kept my mind on my own plate.
This place, even though it is nothing more than a hole in the wall that has been there for "17 years" (I believe that's what the sign says outside) is amazing and charming. It's small in here, so if you have a big party, don't expect to feel comfortable in here. It's dark from the walls and small windows, which to me made it feel warm. The decor is about as typical as you can expect with many places like this. I totally liked that their dishes were mixed and matched. Like they went to Goodwill next door and just bought every plate they had on the shelf. It gives this place the "we don't go with the flow" feel that makes it work.
After a satisfying meal the check arrived. That was like the cherry on the cake, for two meals and two drafts, $15. I kid you not. Totally worth checking this place out for food and not just drink.
