Great place for a few or a large group.

A solid meal with very good service…read more Went in today (Monday of Memorial Day Weekend) and although it was quite busy we were seated quickly and our food arrived in a very reasonable amount of time. Our server was super nice and cheerful. I ordered the waffle breakfast sandwich and matcha and felt both fell flat. I love matcha but I really try and only drink ceremonial grade. It was my mistake that I didn't ask before I ordered. This matcha was premixed and came out looking a slightly greenish off white rather than a rich grassy color. I didn't dock points for the matcha though because a ton of places don't do this drink well. My sandwich was good enough but it overall lacked flavor. The eggs were under seasoned and I wish the waffle was crispy versus soggy. It also didn't have much bacon on it. The home fries were excellent though. Perfect color and seasoning, no notes. Everyone else in my party really enjoyed their meals and I'm sure we will be back. The menu is extensive and I'm sure there are some other things that I would enjoy so I'm looking forward to trying something else next time.

My kids and I ended up here after trying another diner that was so busy there was no parking. We…read morewere able to find parking, and 15-20 minutes wait list. They were swamped so the short wait seemed unlikely. But in fact we were seated and provided menus and waters. This is a classic no frills diner. Retro feel with large diner menu selection. I had a combination platter that was huge, bagel egg and cheese, steak and eggs, and we shared a waffle drizzled with chocolate and cinnamon. Everything was tasty and came out in a timely manner. Friendly service, getting the bill and boxes at the end of meal was a bit of a lull. But for a holiday it was overall very accommodating with no reservations! They offer a full diner lunch menu as well.

We went savory this time: breakfast burrito and steak-n-eggs. My wife had iced coffee and I ordered coffee with cream. Amy questioned my order and wanted to make sure I wanted coffee with cream. I said, " Yes, absolutely " She brought me coffee with whipped cream. We had a good laugh over my deafness and apparent mumbling. Meals arrived quickly: burrito was big but not imposing. Very yummy, Steak was of low quality and thin , which is always a cook's challenge to prepare. Nothing special but adequate. Eggs were perfect and the sourdough toast was extra delicious. All made for a satisfying meal at a good price ( given prices are elevated everywhere these days). Highly recommend a stop here .

Decided we'd ask to sit at the breakfast bar and the nice gentleman grabbed us waters and juices right away and waitress took our order shortly after. Glad we stuck it out. We both had the TMR which came with 2 eggs, choice of meat, home fries, waffle, and sausage and biscuits. I had Canadian bacon (2 slices) added onion to my home fries which were crispy and delicious the other was the same except regular bacon (8 slices). Price was great for the quality and amount of food. Gets busy and noisy but very good. Casual atmosphere a bit less noisy at the breakfast bar. Nice clean homey place.

My roast beef sandwich will not win any awards, but it was a solid attempt at a Beef on Wick. The sandwich itself was flavorful but the horseradish sauce was heavy on Mayo and light on horseradish, the a jus was good and the French Fries were ordinary. I sample my wife's meatloaf open face sandwich and if given the option I'll take the meatloaf over the roast beef. All in all nothing exceptional but nothing off putting that would warrant a disappointment issue.

The regulars are the regulars which is so nice to see because it reminds me of going out to breakfast with my dad & my papa growing up. It's a small place in a great way that you hear the buzz of conversations, your coffee gets topped off on the regular, you can hear them making the meals in the kitchen. We've gone for many a meal but this last one I had took the cake. It was homemade chicken biscuits & gravy that I devoured as soon as they set my plate down. We've had many a breakfast & lunch there that we've had a variety of great things- kielbasa breakfast, breakfast sandwiches, club sandwiches, hotdogs, the list goes on. My boyfriend also likes to get a slice of pie every now & again because they're all homemade. You have to make sure you get there early or order the pie first sometimes though because once it's gone it's gone. A great place that's worth the wait if there is one. Also every day is better if you get Maryanne as a server. Absolutely fantastic person.

Good problem to have. Also the vegetable beef had more beef than I've ever been given in a soup!

A new deli/convenience store in Baldwinsville decided to just adopt the dishes name as their store name and run with it. Chopped cheese offers a variety of sandwiches, wraps, halal platters and desserts, along with also serving as a bodega style convenience store. The space has been completely renovated and everything is brand new, bright and clean. They are mostly aimed at take out, with only a couple small tables with chairs for dining in. We tried Chopped Cheese when it first opened. Now, about 6 months later, we have been there several times and have tried several things on the menu. The good: when the food is made well, everything is usually pretty decent. The very first time we went, they had JUST opened and didn't have some ingredients on their menu yet, but we were able to substitute and everything was good. We were even given some free desserts, which were also tasty. The bad: Now that we've been there a couple times, there are definitely some issues. They have a lengthy menu, and even 6 months in, it seems employees are still not sure of all ingredients that go into their offerings, often questioning several times what you ordered off the menu, or physically having to check the menu to see what the ingredients for a dish are. While the service at the register is usually friendly, the service behind the food counter tends to be indifferent to customers and slow. We have, more than once, had our order either made incorrectly or missing items. We have learned to simply check our order before we leave, and they are always fine to remake whatever is wrong, but items being wrong/missing is a common occurrence. Overall, it's a decent spot when you need/want something fresh made, but don't want to sit down, but they definitely have some things they still need to work on.
