Okay so I am a diner fan (fanatic) but the Lakeview has lost it's charm.
Yes it's true it was in bad shape when it shut down and is all shiny and new now - but that's what bothers me - I miss the old grunge, it gave it character. It's a little too sterile for me now.
It's still a great place for breakfast, I mean how can you go wrong with classic eggs and bacon. The coffee is a little weak - no sleepless nights with this mixture.
All in all I guess it's okay - food is simple and reasonably price but I want more. I miss the old drunks and ragged customers who use to populate the spacious booths
