Colonial's makes a good omelete!
i came here on a Saturday for breakfast, and upon walking in, found a bustling diner with a mom-'n-pop feel. the breakfast menu had a diverse selection of omeletes, and other standard breakfast diner fare. definitely value priced.
i decided to take the plunge on an Italian omelete, and it was great-- spinach and red peppers, and sized to fill you up past lunch. and while i personally do not consider myself a big homefry guy (but would still feel cool if someone called me that), i actually liked the homefries here-- they're fresh, and they're the flakes kind, not the cubes kind.
service was acceptable; didn't feel neglected.
didn't feel neglected by the locals, either. don't be surprised if you find yourself engaging in conversation with people on the next table over.
me: [working on my laptop, munching on omelete]
Random Parma Guy 1: [looks at me] "whatcha workin' on-- homework?" [hearty chuckle]
me: "no sir, just typing up some stuff." (this review, actually)
Random Parma Guy 2: "i don't like computers. they're replacing newspapers."
Random Parma Guy 1: "they're taking away jobs!!"
Random Parma Guy 2: [even more excitedly] "they're taking away jobs!!!"
me: [slinks back in seat, closing laptop]
stop using your computer right now. you're taking away jobs.
