Great green chili. Fabulous night bartender. If you want to have a good time after a bad day, cancelled flight, etc, sit in the bar and have a good time with people who are having the same experience.

Great place to eat and drink if you are staying at the hotel across the street from here. Try their BB-Q ribs, which they cook fresh out on their BB-Q pit outside. Breakfast is good too.

Fantastic green chili. I'll never get anything else when I come here. (I went back a few months after originally posting this tip and had their fries smothered in green chile. Delicious.)

The breakfast with turkey patties, and the chicken fried steak entree were good. They cooked everything to my liking; done and crispy. Fast and friendly service from Michael.

Order the housemade corned beef hash. Different than the standard and as delicious and tender a corned beef comes.

Huge portions of very tasty breakfast food. I didn't find any better food in this neighborhood

They have secret items... like waffle fries and breakfast potatoes and tater tots (instead of the regular hash browns...)

Good menu and great service. Their shakes are really awesome. Ask to sit in Ellie or Rita's sections-- they're the "Queens of the Diner," and they'll treat you right!

Breakfasts are amazing! But the service was super slow... I'll definitely be back but not when I have somewhere to be afterwards.

I really wanted to like this place because the staff are so friendly, but the food was slightly worse than something you could make in your own kitchen. Decent enough prices I guess.
Ryan MeeksAugust 22, 2014
Just me and the fly's waiting for my order to arrive. Well see if the biscuits and gravy are worth it.
Therese HernandezJune 25, 2016
Generous portions and great coffee!

Great Diner fare if you're on the way to or from the Airport.
Dustin CochranOctober 7, 2010
Check out the burritos! Definitely rich, but very fulfilling!
Maddie CookJune 8, 2013
Horrible service. Could see into kitchen where a guy wiped his nose and then put toast into toaster. Also could see kitchen staff eating off plates. Got no refills & food was not worth slow service.

Déco vintage agréable, bons burgers et serveurs sympas, Happy Hour. Le tout sans avoir besoin de prendre la voiture depuis les hôtels de l'aéroport.
