"This group of employees is unlike any other! We came in for breakfast on Friday last week. Upon our arrival, someone came out to help with the door as my boyfriend's grandma has a walker. After hearing about the loss of her husband that used to come in with her, our waitress was there with open arms to give a hug and all the rest of the staff were just as sympathetic for our loss. Aside from great food, this place has some awesome people working there! Thank you so much for your kindness and hospitality, you really don't know how much it means. See you again!"

"My husband requested that I take him, our children and my in-laws here for Father’s Day. So we made a reservation. On the way he raved to his parents about how good the food is and how much they’ll love the cod. We were seated relatively fast though 15 minutes past our reservation time. We all ordered the fried cod platter. Then the children had kids meals. Then we proceeded to wait over a full hour for our food. When it was eventually brought out two cod platters were cold. One “4 piece cod platter” had 3 pieces. One kid’s meal was cold. We let the server know. She said she’d have it remade and took the cold meals away. Then quickly brought out the cod platters again in less than 5 min. I’m guessing they just refried the fish because it was hard, and saturated in grease. The entire bottom of my plate was covered in a thick layer of grease. We didn’t have time to ask for better because half the table was halfway done with their meal already. We had to ask 2 more times for the missing piece of fish. My husband had to ask 3 times for tartar sauce because instead of bringing enough for the table of people eating fish they’d bring one little half filled cup on a plate every time. I understand it was busy and we were patient in waiting the amount of time we did. The food and service were not acceptable and it was a disappointing Father’s Day dinner out. So we left with our in laws thanking us for a meal they didn’t enjoy and us feeling let down by a place we had previously had a good experiences. I felt like we were begging for proper food and service. Not even including the tip I spent $121 on this mess. So unfortunately they’ve lost customers now. I’d have to say I will not recommend."

"I had the vegan queen, and it had nice sweetness in it, well cooked. very tasty. also their beans are a beautiful and unusual mix of black and pinto and were also very good. not many vegan options, but delicious! hard to find when they are from the city, in the second floor of a building next to a beautiful strip shopping center."

"AMAZING! You have to try the panino, a 17-inch sandwich that tastes fantastic. The staff is super friendly as well. I have to update my review, unfortunately. It has become impossible to get dinner from this restaurant. The hours are not accurate, and the staff doesn't seem willing to work. It's very disappointing to see such a good restaurant decline. I stopped by 30 minutes before closing due to my work schedule, and even though the open sign was on, they were already locked up."

"Diner food in his finest. You get a solid piece of food for a reasonable price, and it's all good fat spoons. It may not be at home to write, but it is a charming local hotspot and definitely worth a visit."
