Oh, local greasy spoon... I'm so torn on how to write this review. If I were reviewing you on the atmosphere alone you would definitely get a big hefty 5 stars. The people watching is second to none and at any time of day since you're open 24/7. The staff is probably a 3 as I've had less than stellar service here on more than one occasion.
The food. Hmmm. Well, it's dinner food. The breakfast is right on par with what one would expect from a diner like this. It's far from good for you and generally sits in your gut like a cinder block. It's not BAD by any means though. Also you only take cash and have one of the shadiest ATM machines I've ever seen...
I'm going to go with a middle ground, dear Ritter's Diner, and give you a 4 stars. You're local, you're not a disgusting chain restaurant, and you've always been pretty good to me.
