| - I wish that I could give this place a 4/5 star, but I just can't. I have been coming here for probably my entire life (I'm around 30 years old) and I have seen a great diner turn to an average diner to a mediocre diner to now what I think is an abomonation.
25 years ago when you ordered a roast beef or corned beef sandwich, it was made with fresh bread and stuffed with so much meat, you can barely hold onto it (think of Katz Deli). Then it happened, I don't know if it is greed or stupidity, but the portions got smaller and smaller while the price went higher and higher. About 10 years ago, the roast beef was average sized, but I had to pay for an above average price. I still came here for the nostalgia. Now, the sandwiches (if you can call it that) are so empty and barren that parts of the top and bottom bread touched each other without any meat in between. The portions is less than Drexy's at the Eaton Centre. On top of that, the bread was not even fresh.
Years ago when I came here for lunch here, I had to wait to get a seat if you even got one. Last week, at 12:15 noon, we got a seat without any waiting what-so-ever. I don't know if they changed ownership or the owners just got cheap.
This place is a letdown. I used to come here twice a week just to get my fix ,and now I come here never. Service is still great, but who cares when the food is no good.
