| - I went to Huron Square Deli for breakfast on a Saturday, and it had the feel of a small old-school diner: cheap, quick, and to-the-point.
The majority of the customers at the counter were middle-aged men with newspapers, and there were a few couples at tables. The "kitchen" was directly behind the deli counter, which enabled customers to see exactly what was going on with their food. The service staff was only one woman, who simultaneously called orders to her kitchen staff while attending to all of the tables. She moved quickly and was surprisingly effective despite the skeleton crew.
The menu was extremely inexpensive, and had all of the American breakfast basics. You could probably eat a full breakfast for under $5.00 if you played it right, but we ordered western omelets that came with hash browns (the shredded potato kind) and a choice of white, wheat, or rye toast. My huband ordered a strawberry-banana smoothie, which turned out to be super sugary, and a side of corned-beef hash. When it arrived, it was the type that comes out of a can for sure.
If you're looking for a fast, cheap, down-to-business kind of experience, this is a great little place. If you have high expectations about ambiance or gourmet quality food, avoid this place.
