"3"^^ . . "Having recently lost my job, I wanted to go out to breakfast without spending a lot of the little money I have left. It was recommended that we go to the 50's Diner near Jones & Russell. Hidden away (if you will) in a typical plaza that permeates the area, the 50's Diner does not stand out. The name is up on the facade in an uninteresting red lettering akin to whatever else is in the plaza. \n\nWhen you walk in you are surrounded by about 15-20 table and chairs, yet no booths; for a diner, booths would be a nice addition. You seat yourself (the place was not busy and I was told the last time my friend visited, she was one of the few people there as well), but the waiter/waitress is quick to assist you. \n\nThe price of the meals is on par, however the specials are quite affordable (add $1.00 to a $3.99 meal on the weekend) and you get much more than what you pay for at this price. I ordered something simple (pancakes, eggs and sausage with a side of biscuits and gravy). Nothing stood out but nothing was bad; I really enjoyed the meal. \n\nAs the sign out front left an impression on me upon walking in, so did the restaurant itself. Save for the music and decor, nothing else struck me with the restaurant. For the price and quality of food, I would come back if we wanted a good breakfast. A few improvements to attract customers and keep them coming back (more attractive sign, booths, 50's Diner costumes) would be a great addition to the 50's Diner."^^ . . "3"^^ . . "0"^^ . "1"^^ .
