    Great place for some classic, American diner food. Grilled cheese and tomato soup, any of the burgers, and THE SHAKES!! Smores shake is my favorite but you can't go wrong with any of them

    Pancakes are awesome! Breakfast burrito also awesome! Just keep in mind, everything gets cooked on the same surface.. meat, cheese, potatoes, etc and it's on display so don't say you didn't know

    Get the Chocolate Elvis! It's amazing. And, make sure you come in on the last Wednesday of the month for Wacky Wednesday - come dressed in your old-fashioned PJs and get great deals!

    The malts are good, by the food tends to leave me a little disappointed. If I want better for and a better experience, I'll go to Nick's on Pico. I'll go to Cafe 50s just because it's convenient

    After waiting an hr for our breakfast to arrive we were informed by Tara our waitress that that's how long it takes on the weekends. Moral - don't come here on Saturdays or Sundays!!!

    Everything was great until our waitress Michelle confiscated our orange balloon and gave it to some kids a case of blatant ageism. Boo hop!

    You have to specifically ask for it, and it's obviously seasonal, but the Thin Mint Milkshake is the most worth-your-time thing on this menu.

    The ladies room is so tiny. I recommend sitting sideways on the toilet for maximum leg room.
