| - Came here late on a Friday afternoon. When I walked in, I immediately felt comfortable and relaxed. This was most likely due to the adorable, retro diner decor. The seating was mainly "bar style" where everyone sits next to each other, facing either the wall or the open grill area.
We sat facing the wall, which was a good idea because there were a ton of great old, framed retro adverts from old magazines, as well as cool old photos and assorted Canadiana.
We were only slightly hungry, so the two of us split their grilled cheese sandwich and a poutine. I must say, it was the second-best poutine I've ever had in my life. Amazingly deeply crispy fries, perfect cheese curds and this super savoury gravy speckled with mustard seeds. The grilled cheese was grilled cheese - except done flawlessly.
Simple, refreshingly well executed comfort food, friendly service, and a great decor and vibe. No pretension here. Go check it out!
