    It's 7:00 pm on a Saturday night! This place should be hopping! I guess that should've been our first red flag!

    Walking into this restaurant was like walking into the Twilight Zone! When my hubby and I set foot in the door there was another family sitting on the bench to the immediate left, so we were standing there waiting. The host quickly reprimanded us and said "You have to sit there first in order to be seated". Ummm, kinda hard to do when someone is already sitting there, chief. The family that was sitting there was quickly whisked off to their seats so we did what we were told and sat on the bench for literally a minute while the host reintroduced himself and asked us how many people were in our party. We felt like we were about to be initiated into some strange Cult. Like the Kool-aid would arrive at any moment and they'd bring in the reinforcements to see that we drank it! Like it was a mandatory passage for our butts to touch the bench in order to gain access to the dimly lit dining area. Out host hastily guided us to our seats, which was a booth. When I looked down at the carpet it was dirty. You could SEE the filth. And the STENCH in that place! It's unbelievable how others were able to tolerate it and eat in there! My hubby and I looked at each other and said "Nope!" We promptly left the scene of what was once a reality nice place to eat. What a disgrace that restaurant has become! I'm not sure how this location is even staying in business. AVOID!!!

    This is a clean and quaint American diner. My Mother in law and I stopped in for a Thursday lunch…read more It was moderately busy, but we were quickly greeted and seated. Our server was friendly and accommodating. Our food arrived promptly and it was hot and fresh! I ordered the egg and cheese croissant with homefries. The portions are huge, so come hungry! I couldn't finish it all! Mom ordered a daily special - the turkey & avocado croissant with coleslaw. And the chicken noodle soup. She really enjoyed it all. I'd recommend visiting this location.

We have recommended your restaurant to many people, especially praising your salad bar for its freshness, quality, and variety. We've also ordered the AYCE fish fry many times -- including nearly every Friday during Lent last year -- and it has always been crispy, well‑drained, and never greasy. This visit, however, fell far below the standards we have come to expect. From the moment we were seated, the experience was noticeably different. The hostess did not ask for drink orders, which has always been standard. Our server -- slightly heavy‑set with a long black ponytail -- appeared disengaged and gave the clear impression that she did not want to be there. We confirmed with her that the AYCE fish was $12.99 and included all‑you‑can‑eat soup and salad, exactly as we were told earlier in the day when we called. Her response was, "She always tells people that, but it's one trip." Despite the inconsistency, we proceeded and requested the fish extra crispy and well‑drained. We waited at least 30 minutes for the first round of fish, even though only two other tables were occupied and they already had their food. When the fish finally arrived, it was extremely greasy, not crispy, and the bottoms were completely soggy. When we pointed this out, the server simply said, "I told him," offering no apology, no concern, and no attempt to resolve the issue. She took the fish back to have it remade. She returned shortly after and removed our sides without explanation. The second order of fish was still dripping with grease. Grease was visibly pooled in the breading, as if it had come straight from the fryer without being drained at all. We asked another employee if she was the manager. She said no but asked what was wrong. As we began explaining, the manager, Heather, approached. At that same moment, the server stood behind me and said, "Oh, they're not happy with that either." Heather also showed no empathy, no apology, and no effort to correct the situation. Her demeanor was irritated and dismissive from the start. We told Heather to remove the fish from the bill. She agreed but insisted we still had to pay for the soup and salad. She then brought a bill for nearly $30, charging us for AYCE soup and salad even though we each had only one cup of soup and one small salad. When we questioned this, Heather became visibly annoyed and said she would instead charge us for a side salad and a cup of soup. We explained that the fish has never been like this before. Heather's response was, "Then go out to Madison, they have the same fish there." This was unprofessional and completely unnecessary. When we went to pay, we informed Heather that we were veterans. She applied the discount to only one meal. When I told her I was also a veteran, she said, "Oh, you're a veteran too? Well, I need to see ID." This was disrespectful and unnecessary, especially after she acknowledged she recognized us from previous visits. My husband was wearing a veteran jacket, yet she still demanded to see his ID as well. Heather then brought up the fish again, stating it "looked perfectly fine" to her. When I explained the amount of grease on the napkin and on my hands, she dismissed it, saying, "It's deep fried, there's going to be grease," and repeated that it looked fine. As I calmly explained that it had never been served this way before, she told me I was "getting out of control." At no point did I raise my voice -- I was simply explaining the issue. After that comment, I stepped outside while my husband finished paying. He later told me that Heather was speaking about me in front of him to another employee, again calling me "out of control," and told the server she wasn't getting a tip. It is clear that something has changed. The friendly, attentive, welcoming atmosphere that once set your restaurant apart is gone. The staff now appear disengaged, unprofessional, and uninterested in providing quality service. We no longer see any of the kind servers who made dining here enjoyable. We are extremely disappointed by how this visit was handled from start to finish. We hope management takes this feedback seriously. We have supported your restaurant since your grand opening, and we would like to feel confident returning -- but based on this experience, that is not possible unless significant improvements are made.

Mary, the owner runs the front of the house along with the only server, Sarah. They are the nicest people you could ever meet. Mary is a fanatic for cleanliness. The place is always spotless. Mary's husband Oscar runs the kitchen. As a matter of fact, he is the entire kitchen, all by himself. He does a fantastic job. I have never had to wait for my order. It is always hot and taste great. The dining room is really small. Maybe 10 or 12 tables. Always filled with regulars. But if you show up they'll find room for you. Oh, by the way, they only take cash. There's an ATM on premises. Give Crazy Eggs a try. You'll enjoy it.

It's very homey in some aspects. The staff was attentive and very nice young lady took my order. My food came out quickly, and it was nice and hot and met my expectations. They make their corn beef hash and house so it's not from a can. The coffee was hot and tasted pretty good. This is a cash only establishment so be sure to bring some folding money when you come in. I like to support local businesses and I'll definitely be back for breakfast and I'll bring my wife next time.

    Cleaner since they changed to Village Inn. No longer sticky and gross inside…read more Service was super slow; 10 minutes to get a server to take our drink orders. After we got food we never saw our waitress again. No refills. A cook gave us a box. Waited at the register for someone to let us pay our bill. There at least 30 minutes longer than wanted to be just waiting to pay and get a box for food. However, cook was fast. Got food fast after we ordered. No complaints on food. It was good. Not sure if our waitress was the only server when we were there, but saw her standing around talking a lot off to the side. Would recommend take out instead of eating in until they get more servers (which I understand, it's hard to get workers when pay is breadcrumbs).

Greeted & seated almost right away. Our waitress, Alicea I think, brought coffee & iced tea right away. My wife had the eggs & sausage breakfast, seems simple. But the house made sausage was amazing. Good eggs & potatoes. I had the Banana Cream Pancakes with scrambled & a sausage patty. Those Pancakes were everything I've ever wanted in a special pancake. I enjoyed each bite way too much. Not overly rich, they were so light and flavorful. I could go on & on about them. We cashed out at the table right away when it was time. So simple, so easy, so good.
