bacon cheeseburger
Barbecutioner K.

Pretty decent little diner. Good service and cool vibe, classic counter top seating along with tables and some cool old pictures of Binghamton on the walls, as well as some 50's throwback signs. For breakfast I've had pancakes, home fries, and a bacon egg and cheese sandwich. The pancakes were very good, they had a great texture, they were soft and fluffy and they were very filling. the home fries had a good flavor but the ones I got needed to be cooked longer, they were a little tough. the breakfast sandwich was good but i've had better, the bread overpowered everything but the bacon on it was really good. For lunch I've had the bacon cheeseburger here as well as the chilli dogs. the burger was just ok. again, the bacon on it was great, but the bun was just an average burger bun you can get in an 8 pack at the store, and there was nothing on it, i was expecting mayo, lettuce, and tomato. the chilli on the dogs had a good flavor but the actual dogs were just ok. There was a special for 2 dogs and fries for about $6 i think, which was worth it, but the fries were nothing special, they were pretty limp, not crisp at all. Id give the breakfast a 4 and lunch a 3, so overall a 3 and a half rating. nothing amazing but you'll get a satisfying meal.

This is favorite meal while spending two days Binghamton for a moving into dorm day with my…read moredaughter. We went twice on our 2 day trip. We ordered the rib eye sandwich. It was one of my favorite sandwich. Slices of rib eye sautéed with pepper and onion. We opt for no cheese cause of allergies, but the sandwich was very juicy. No need any condiments. They have two locations. This one is farther north about 15 mins away from Binghamton University but closer to Suny Broome. Though there is a closer location to Binghamton. I heard that the rib eye sandwich is only available in the other location. Def worth the drive up. We also ordered the onion rings and chicken nuggets. But the star was the rib eye sandwich. Will beback very soon.

This review encompasses two visits on a trip to and from NY from NC. Our family stopped in on 7/18…read moreand ordered one original 12 inch spiedie and one Greek spiedie along with a side of macaroni salad. I didn't remember to add mayo and lettuce to our original, so it was a little dry. I did ask for mayo and lettuce and added it. The macaroni salad was really good! Today (7/25) we stopped in to have lunch with family who are local on our way back to NC. The spiedes were really sloppy and so saturated the bread was mushy. The 12 inch original my husband and I were sharing was super saturated. Unfortunately one of the chunks of chicken was served raw in the middle and I ate a bite out of it before I noticed the raw inside. I took the piece to the employee working the to go counter and she offered to remake our order and refunded by husband's card. I appreciate the business making it right. Hopefully our next trip will be a more positive experience. However overall the two stops were not bad, even with undercooked chicken.

This spot has long been on my list of places to eat in Binghamton. Was in the area with some…read morefriends, so we stopped in for lunch. We came towards the end of the lunch rush (1-2PM?) and were seated immediately. The ambiance is hip and buzzy, with lots of colorful decor. The menu had some very tempting options, even for vegetarians. We started with the buffalo brussel sprouts, a stroke of genius. I'd never thought about dousing this tasty veggie in hot sauce and blue cheese, but it makes sense. This was a very tasty app, and the sprouts were roasted perfectly with crispy outer skins which provided the crunch needed for a good buffalo dish. The special that day was some kind of french dip sandwich which one of my dining companions got. Another one got a cajun catfish sandwich and graciously offered me a bite. It was flavorful. For my main, I got the spring roll bowl and decided to add tofu. It had noodles, peanuts, a sweet thai chili sauce, and lots of veggies. It was MASSIVE. Prices are a little high but the portions definitely made it worth it. I could have taken half home as leftovers if I'd wanted. The restaurant also has a coffee bar which we decided last minute to partake in instead of venturing out into the rain to find a different cafe. This was such a convenient option because we didn't have to fight to find parking or brave the weather to go to a second location. I did a pistachio latte. Someone else at my table got a Mexican hot chocolate. I treated myself to the homemade whipped cream. The coffee hit the spot. Throughout the whole experience the staff was wonderful. Our food came out quickly, and the servers were very friendly and joking with us. I'd come back if I was in the area.

I honestly do not understand the hype about this place. Came for dinner and it took over an hour to…read moreget our food. Food was adequate. Drinks were average. At no time within that hour did anyone come over and acknowledge the fact that it was taking over an hour to get our food. When I finally asked to see a manager, the host responded with "well. the manager is really busy, but I'll see if she has time to talk to you." When the manager did come over, I was the one who had to suggest that maybe she do something for our table. She ultimately comped our drinks. Really not worth the hype. I don't understand why everyone says this place is so great.
