    The dining car section can be a little cramp. The linguica hash Benedict is delicious, the Portuguese linguica is spicy. This is a great breakfast spot that also serves brunch cocktails.

    Belgian waffles are to die for!! They present their food very nicely with flowers and decorations.

    The gouda/apple/jalapeño bacon omelette is probably the best omelette I've ever had!

    Get the lobster benedict, corn beef hash, or the linguiça hash. Great little diner. Only takes cash though.

    Two words: Custard Sauce. That being said, they also have really good home fries.
