Do you ever wonder if that Diner from the past exists, the ones where your waitress is more interested in how everyone in your party is doing rather than simply being a go between from the cook to your table? That establishment still exists, it called Lou's Diner.
Our party of four tried Lou's Diner by chance as we initially drove by our first choice only to be greatly disappointed in the wait (of course I re-checked Yelp for our alternative) and I'm really glad we did. Everyone loved Lou's. Quality of food, speed, attentiveness, and of course . . . the great prices! We left beyond full and making sure our waitress knew that we would be back (with more of our family too)!
Good coffee, pancakes, and breakfast burritos just to name a few. Can't wait to get back there and try something else (or get those pancakes again)!
