| - I've been to Hubbard Avenue Diner a few times, and the food is a mix of average and super-good.
Hits: Smokehouse Hickory Burger (subbing a black bean patty for meat), French Silk* pie.
*Most FS pies are light and creamy; theirs is dense and fudgy. I wouldn't personally call it FS, but I will call it heavenly.
(Occasional) Misses: Their regular fries (I'm a potato gal, I've got high standards; on my last visit they were dry and over-cooked), the parmesan penne (bland), and the Italian Turkey BLT (the first time I tried it, it was amazing; the second time it was okay at best - can't put my finger on why).
The diner itself is adorable with a wonderful mid-century vibe, offers outdoor seating when the weather is nice, and has a friendly, attentive staff.
If the rest of their desserts are as good as the French Silk pie, a visit to Hubbard Avenue Diner is worth the visit for a treat alone.
