    Fast, friendly and inexpensive, what more could a girl ask for? Our waitress was a peach. She had me order an off menu sandwich.... delicious! We stopped in while passing through on a whim. Glad we did. I was surprised at the size of the menu. The flaming cheese was perfect!

    Veggie omelet
    Marc L.

    This gets a 5 star because it is a diner and I didn't expect much, but it delivered. Grilled veggie omelet was delicious, pita was fresh and server was attentive. Plus the prices were low!

    Egg Sandwich on English Muffin, Greek Omelette
    Brandi W.

    It's a little run down Coney Island but the breakfast is as good as you'll get anywhere. I got the Greek omelet and it was good. My daughter got the English muffin breakfast sandwich and she loved it.

    Love the house special Chopped Breaded Chicken Pita OMG Wonderful

    Gyro sandwich

    The price: $8.00 On the menu it says freshly sliced: False This is what I get for trying new places. The gyro meat was more like breakfast sausage texture, like three meatloaf STRIPS. There is nothing fresh nor sliced about this meat. The bread was not warmed up, steamed, not even microwaved, very stiff and too thick for the small amount of meat you get. Also, they put the sauce in a cup, on the side... perfect...but with no damn lid, filled to the top. Spilled all inside the box. Also, asked for an extra cup of sauce, $1.00?! No thank you. This is not a place for a REAL gyro. Olympics Coney in Westland is cheaper on price. They actually have sliced gyro meat. The bread is warm, and wrapped nicely in foil. They also put lids on your to-go sauces.

    Greek omelet with hash browns extra crispy :)

    Great breakfast spot! Food was delicious and service was friendly. Food was a little slow to arrive but it was Sunday morning. Hubs and I both had a greek omelet and it was delicious. The feta and gyro meat were yummy! We each had a breakfast and soda and total was around 25 bucks plus tip :)

    This is their menu

    The vibe here is mainly older people which let's you know it has to be good. I had the Mexican Omelette and Biscuits and Gravy, they were both delicious and fulfilling. The Gravy tasted home made and the omelette had just enough spice to satisfy my flavor of taste I wanted. I would definitely come back here cause the staff was very friendly and helpful.

    Fresh Gyro Sandwich...Ha ha ha. Yeah right.

We had a reservation and…read morestill waited 30-40 minutes, and I walked past whole empty sections on my way to the bathroom, so I don't know what the holdup was. The confirmation text didn't come through until we were already inside, which might be bad reception, but it almost cost us the table. Then they sat us right across from the back kitchen entrance. Banging, yelling, and an open doorway into the kitchen. Off-putting, especially with better seating clearly open. The food keeps the rating up. I did not expect a wings place, but the smoked wings were my favorite, right amount of crispy with good smoke. The sauce list is long and I couldn't pick a favorite. The ranch tasted house-made and it was amazing. The chikin soho was the other standout. Honey ginger glaze, chili dijon slaw, and pickles that all work together. Misses: the brisket nachos needed fresh guac and actual brisket, since there was barely any. The 6 cheese mac was fine but not worth ordering again. Prices were right for what it is, a bistro concept. It's in Wayne, which surprised me since I didn't know spots like this existed out here. Wide enough menu that I'll be back. Next time I'm speaking up about the seating.

If they dont have one ready sometimes theyll let you pick one thats just been finished but not cleaned and theyll clean it off as you sit down kinda thing. The vibe isnt anything fancy, basic diner chairs/rubbery plastic seats that have seen better days. But the coffee is always hot, and they keep bringing it by. The owner herself walks around chatting and pouring the coffee, shes this short European (maybe) woman with a bit of an accent but she's incredibly sweet! Her daughter also works there with her husband which i find so sweet. As i said the coffee is always hot, the food is always fresh and doesn't take long even on a busy morning with a packed restaurant! I dont know how they keep up sometimes but they do! If you like fish, go on a Friday night for fish fry and you wont be disappointed! The fish is crispy/crunch, hot and absolutely delicious. This is my favorite place to get a fish fry! And the best part about this place is? Its hella affordable, so be nice and tip those guys they deserve it

I decided to try the signature Black Label Burger and the house made potato chips. I was disappointed in both. The burger was dry and not prepared to my request or liking and the potato chips had no flavor or seasoning. I should have went with the Sunday Brunch with several offerings and made-to-order omelettes. Sunday Brunch is until 2pm which is also an available on holidays. It includes made-to-order crepes and omelettes, fruit, French toast, pancakes, chicken, eggs, dessert bar plus condiments for Bloody Mary's and Mimosas. They offer dine-in only with a purchase of a beverage for their $7 Happy Hour and Drink specials. This is available Monday - Friday 3pm-6pm. Although I was the only one waiting at the unstaffed hostess station, it took some time for my acknowledgment by a staff member to offer me seating in a booth. Seating options are traditional tables, booths, bar and patio. The service was okay once I was seated. Feliberto was a good server and kept my unsweetened tea refills coming. The ambiance in the restaurant was pleasant and a family-friendly atmosphere.

We waited about 10 minutes without being greeted or seated, even though several servers noticed us. Eventually, someone seated us, but it was a disappointing first impression. We ordered the rosemary truffle fries, onion rings, and a wood-fired hand-tossed pizza, customized with our choice of toppings. They don't modify any of their alcoholic drinks to make virgin versions. The food took a while to arrive, but everything came out together. The onion rings were crispy and enjoyable, and the pizza was good. The rosemary truffle fries, however, were just okay and lacked the flavor we expected. As the evening went on, the restaurant slowly filled up, with the bar area becoming completely packed. Overall, it's a nice, cool spot with decent food, but the service could definitely use improvement. The experience was okay, but it left us wanting a bit more.
