C ReyJanuary 1, 2017Classic diner that's arguably best for breakfast/brunch. Minnesotan omelette and all benedicts are delicious. Oh, and portions are enormous!
Collier W.June 19, 2014For $10.50, you might expect a hearty, textured corned beed hash with flakes of slow-cooked meat ... But the pancakes are delicious!
Country Fried Steak and Eggs, Add 1 Egg scrambled, English muffin, hash browns extra crispy. If extra hungry add andouille sausage patty, maybe the Carmel Pecan roll...ahhh
Veronica MarcanoJanuary 8, 2020Had the crab cakes egg Benedict, it was delicious. The crab is imitation crab, which is fine because it tasted good.
Get any kind of sauce on the side otherwise your food will be drowning in it. Tasty stuff! Although, the hash browns are always disappointing.
All the breakfast items are good and so is the cheeseburger fries and malt for 9$ is a great deal
Sam ChristensenDecember 7, 2015Caprese Benedict is the best! Choco. Chip cookie dough pancakes rock, caramel apple cruch waffles are greatt- LexaFebruary 26, 2018We had the Avocado Toast and Caprese Benedict which were excellent! The massive hash browns were nice and crispy, too!
The new manager, Juan, is awesome! He used to be a cook in the back for 7yrs, and was recently promoted to manager. Be nice to him because he's a cool guy.
Kristen ReinkeOctober 25, 2013Thank you Will and Linus and friends!! Had a wonderful very early morning spent at the diner!! Can't wait to come back again!
Seriously one of the best breakfast joints in the area. Service is super fast and food is beyond delicious.

Elvira Canaveral PINCOMBO.COM PINCOMBO.COMAugust 5, 2022Food that is made with love can be consumed by those who eat with love.
Carla BeiroAugust 19, 2015There huge waffles are the best! I love the cookie dough waffle, but unfortunately the service isn't all that great so I rarely come here..
- Arielle LenoxJuly 5, 2018Great breakfast all day. Also a hot spot for your midnight breakfast craving!
- Eric hFebruary 16, 2014If you come after bar rush two people are not allowed to occupy a 4 person booth, but are allowed to occupy a four person table because "you can fit more in a booth." That "logic" makes my brain hurt.
- Had the corned beef hash earlier today. It was amazingly good. Having the biscuits and gravy now.
Hannah JoMarch 21, 2012Order one of the Eggs Benedict....each flavor is amazing! Large enough portions to last two meals.
Marky McFlyMarch 26, 2011Add their Facebook page and get their daily specials updated. Today for example they have buy any Benedict and get another free. So awesome!
- Stephen KoontzDecember 22, 2014Not looking to eat healthy? Then the crab cake benny and choco chip cookie dough pancakes is what you're looking for.
Whenever they serve turkey dinner, get it. Get it with extra gravy.
The food is good and service is awesome but that's a B.S. special. They will NOT honor their three check-in special. Liars.
great food at a great price and open super late on weekends...great after the bars in uptown.
If they have any caramel apple rolls available, get one!
JustineMay 22, 2011Great place to people watch that's for sure! I could die for the waffle fries, yum!
