“Food was absolutely delicious and just what I needed to set me up for the day. Very affordable prices and portion size is excellent. Exactly the kind of greasy spoon I remember from when I was younger. Not much seating so be prepared to takeaway if it's busy.”

“Great place, great owners. We are a little bais as we do know them if fact my wife used to work with one of them, that said; the food is always freshly cooked and hot. The will do whatever it takes to make you happy and they make occasion cakes, we have tried their Angle Cakes and they are good. All in all nothing bad to say about the owners, food or establishment. Christmas menu is up, Stocking Stuffer, super tasty and about the size of my head. Winner Winner Christmas Dinner.”
