I've been coming to this restaurant for 25 years. The nostalgic layout is appealing. Waitresses are friendly and familiar. Unfortunately due to its size gets too busy on Saturday and Sunday mornings. You have to pick a good time or prepare to stand. Raised prices a few years ago. Taking it from a really good bargain to a moderate one.
My first bad experience was today otherwise I would rate it higher. 8:30 AM on a Monday in December and the restaurant was almost empty because I was by myself I was not allowed to sit at one of the eight open tables. I was not interested in sitting at the counter and there were plenty of seats and no one at the door. That's just bad business. I left embarrassed because I happen to be alone this time.
