| - I frequent this place almost weekly as I have family that are regulars.
I will try my best to not be biased in my review as I feel I may receive better service due to the owner and servers knowing me.
This is a very typical diner when it comes to very simple food at a good value, mainly targeting the senior population.
The price is very fair, for the portions and quality you couldn't expect it to be any less expensive. This is the sort of place you come to get what you'd expect. With the price you can't expect a designed interior, you can't expect high quality ingredients, and you can't expect the servers to be perfect. They are great to me, constantly checking up and refilling my coffee, but they are usually busy and sometimes slightly disorganized. The menu is decently diverse, I stick to a few staples and they are always consistent. Not too salty, not too bland, things are well-cooked and simple. The restaurant is always clean, especially the bathrooms, and generally I would assume the kitchen is as well. The owner is great and always around, he will even take your order and serve salads himself often. Generally this place is well-run and worth the try if you are looking for a simple meal at a good value.
I give this place 5 stars because I've never been disappointed, it's not going to impress you, but you will never be let down. A true staple to the west side suburbs and I hope it's here to stay.
