We have been coming here for years, and it never disappoints. The food is the closest to a homemade meal. The portions are not too little and not too big. You can tell the chef really cares about his art. One thing a really like is that most diners know each other. It is truly a neighborhood gem.

I loved this place! Everything on the menu looked good. The pancakes were delicious and the drinks were refreshing. The service was outstanding. The staff is very friendly and constantly checking in - even the owner dropped by the table. It was much appreciated. Could tell her cared about his customers and wasn't just passing by as obligation. My own complaint was that the place is a bit small and cramped and it didn't help that we were told the air conditioning was broken. That made it a big uncomfortable - but would return again.
