I figured a diner would be the fastest meal we could get on a Saturday morning. Not this diner! It's tiny and super popular. We were extremely fortunate to beat the rush and get the last bar stools last Saturday because everyone after us had to wait in the doorway.
I can see why they wait. This is an old-school diner of the finest form. I especially loved sitting at the counter, with the nice gentleman who served drinks (don't try to give him your order!) standing at attendance in his shirt and tie. Everything tasted exactly as you'd expect, and nothing disappointed. My cohorts had egg plates, and I enjoyed my mushy melty grilled cheese and tomato, and shared my large plate of steak fries, which were browned perfectly.
On our way out, the 2 cooks, the waiter and the man in the tie all waved and smiled in farewell. Check out People's Food. This diner is an institution!
