What a great little hole in the wall. Came in for breakfast and the food lived up to the reviews. Ordered the Irish Benedict and a traditional omelette. The Benedict had corned beef, sauerkraut, a poached egg and hollandaise sauce all over an English muffin...times 2! Included a side of breakfast potatoes that were perfectly prepared and tastey. I enjoyed it 4 hours ago and am still stuffed! Not sure I'm a fan of eggs and kraut, but it has nothing to do with this place. The dish was expertly prepared and looked fabulous. Daughter had the omelette and was equally impressed. Service was polite and fast. Will go back in a heartbeat. read more

Breakfasts are good here. Altho, they got extremely pricey. 2 for breakfast $43.00??? I got a waffle with a side of hash and hub got an omelet. 2 coffees. Geez. read more

It's a small diner that is Covid Compliant but it is a great place to come and get amazing breakfast. I came in with my friend and we ordered the chicken and waffles and the corn beef and hash. Seasoned to perfection, simply exquisite and so was the staff so humble and so inviting you would think you were in your grandmothers kitchen. I love the coffee the most, alot of diner coffees can be a bit chalky and isvery strong but this one had a very delightful hint that made having a 2nd cup worth it. I definitely would be back here again. read more

We went here for the first time today and will be back. I got the Philly omelette with chicken and my husband got the gyro omelette. The portions were large and were absolutely delicious! The only recommendation i would have would be to add sour cream for the Philly omelette. The home-fries were amazing! read more

Good food and service. Food came quick, hot and correct. Ordered fried steak and steak and eggs. We enjoyed both! Looks like a diner, we liked that. We'll probably be throwing this into our breakfast rotation. We came Friday since our other spots were done doing breakfast or not open. read more

Stopped in on Christmas Eve for the first time and it was just ok. The main side was filling up as was the counter,but side area was empty. Nothing was bad just nothing stood out. Waitress was nice and the place was clean but like I said nothing too great. I was warned this place was a bit pricey for what you get and it is. Doubtful I'll return. read more

No frills place that drums up some creative takes on breakfast. There's your basic three eggs, a choice of meat, home fries and toast at $5.99 but you also have novelties like chicken and waffles and the chorizo Benedict. We came on a Wednesday morning at 8am, and by 10am the place was nearly filled- it's definitely loved by locals and fellow food enthusiasts. The gyro hash and the chicken and waffles were my favorite bites of the morning. The hash comes with a garlicky creamy sauce that pairs wonderfully with the gyro meat, feta cheese, and fresh tomatoes. My only complaint? More of those home fries to line the bottom- otherwise the meat and toppings can overwhelm the palate. Topped with two poached eggs, great savory dish. The fried chicken on the waffles was well-seasoned and crispy although it could've benefited from perhaps using the chicken's dark meat, the sriracha gave a little hotness to the sweet syrup on the waffles. I could've done without the homemade syrup and gone with the pitchers on each table, but it was a good bite. For the chorizo Benedict, a spicy chorizo and a mild hollandaise sauce paired well together but I was thrown off by the pineapple used for sweetness, the chewiness of the English muffin and the slice of cheese. The slice of raw jalapeño was a nice colorful touch. read more

Out server looked like Shannon Doherty and the grub was great! What more do you need to know? The place was a little uncomfortable warm inside but that's the only gripe. It's an absolute diner! Which I mention having just lived on the West coast for a number of years where they claimed to know diners - they don't. Also delis - they dunno them either! | Southside. My partner and I both had breakfast. I had potato pancakes which were not latkes, nor were they my leftover mashed potato pancakes. They tasted like pancake batter and potatoes! Go figure. They were good though. Came with apple sauce which really made me hope for latkes...they were good. Been back since then and had the Western omelette. No Shanon Doherty this time but great service just the same. Price is right and everything seems fresh and IS delish. We would be here more often if we didn't pass 17 breakfast joints to get here. read more

Quaint little place. Food is absolutely delicious. I love coming here. When my extended family comes to town I tell them to come here. The service is great and everyone is so friendly. read more

This place was fabulous! They accommodated our very large group (28 people) with only a 30-minute notice. They were organized and on top of our needs. Refills were continuous, food was reasonably priced, and the staff were great. Our waitress had our food out to us while it was still hot. If you like well-made food for breakfast with a great staff serving it this is the place for you. read more

Brother and friend suggested this place for breakfast! This is by far the best breakfast joint I've been to in Parma! It's so delicious!!! This place sure gets busy and sometimes you have to wait to get seated but it is totally worth it!! I would have to say that I am satisfied with the service and food! Service was fast and very attentive! Every single one of these staff members are super friendly and willing to answer any questions you may have. The owner is definitely very outgoing and hard working for he has been there every time I visit. The Eggs Benedict Florentine is so delicious!! All of the ingredients are frech and the hollandaise sauce is legit! Majority of the places I've been to in Parma claim their hollandaise sauce is delicious but it just tastes like chicken broth thickened by flour which is definitely disappointing! But this place.. they make everything right after you order! The presentation is beautiful just like the flavor of this dish. I have also tried their gyro which is definitely delicious and feeling. The gyro is just like any gyro but they toss the lamb in the sauce so the taste is consistent with every bite. The only thing that is different from this gyro from other places is that you can taste the freshness of their vegetables and they don't use as much salt as other places. Definitely excited to try more of their food soon! read more

First time in Ohio so jumped on yelp to find a breakfast spot. This was 15 mins away from the hotel but i loved the pictures and reviews so we made the drive. Let me say that i am very happy we did! First off the service was top notch. Honestly decent service recently is hard to come by but this establishment goes above and beyond decent, they were awesome. Drinks were always refilled, they checked in often to make sure we had what we needed, made recommendations etc. We were all thoroughly impressed and left happy. Now onto the food which is what we all want to know about. Everything we had was delicious! I had the clevelander sandwich, which is corned beef, turkey with coleslaw on rye. It was HUGE and delicious. The fries were just okay, but who cares when the sandwich was that great. We also had the French toast with Nutella and peanut butter, omg it was the perfect amount of sweet and savory. Everyone loved it! Last thing we had was the veggie breakfast wrap, which is also very good according to the person in our party who had it. Hands down, this place lives up to their rating both with service and food. Do yourself a favor and eat here! read more

Great lil diner! The menu! Plenty of options, but not overwhelming! lots of twists on classic breakfast and lunch plates, I can be a little picky but they've always been accommodating great COVID-19 practices and the staff has always been fantastic. If you haven't been, give them a try you won't be disappointed.cheers read more

Busy place on a weekend! Be prepared to wait at least 5-10 minutes for a table. The one thing in which I was not the biggest fan of was the service and lack of attentiveness we received from our server. After our food was delivered, she didn't not come back to see if we needed anything else or even how the food tasted. I understand that it was a busy shift and she had multiple tables to take care of, but the service we had was very poor. Aside from the service, our food was cheap and not bad tasting. read more

Great food. I especially like the corn beef hash breakfast. Quick and pleasant service.

Food was dry and had no flavor. Seats were uncomfortable. Service was great. Expensive for what it was.

Even after all the madness with the Pandemic for the past 2 years, this place has not only stayed open, but they've stayed busy and their quality has been consistent. I've been coming here for over 10 years now, and after being out-of-town for 7 years, seeing that this gem is still producing some of the best "diner style" food you can get in the area, MAKES ME HAPPY! I put "diner style" in quotation marks because not many diners offer even 1/2 of the menu items they do, not to mention the taste, quality and great service! Since 10 years ago, the seating area has expanded, and so has their menu! Do yourself a favor, and try this place! Today I tried the special "Monte Cristo" which is a delicious Breakfast Sandwich ON FRENCH TOAST! Ham, Turkey, Egg, Cheese (meted and delicious), all stacked on French Toast, and served with a side of syrup and HomeFries! Side of Crispy Delicious Bacon for the win! read more

Came in for breakfast. Good portions and really good service. it's so nice to have a server who is seasoned. They are great about knowing what you need before you know. The food was excellent as well. Chorizo hash was the perfect amount of spice and we hear the breakfast tacos are great too. We will be back! read more

Very good brunch! They have new and different things... the Mexicali, the Athenian breakfast (gyro), meat lover omelet, and sausage gravy were all excellent! Check the menu pics to see. All very fresh. Good quality. Parties greater than 4 will have challenges seating, but they do have a spot or two where tables can push together for 6 or 8 if they're not busy. read more

Great little place for breakfast and brunch. Nice sized portions. My pancake loving but hard to please pancake judge even liked theirs. We aren't local so I kind of felt like we were forgotten a couple of times while conversations were had with those who were. But it is what it is. Would I go back? Yes. read more

We loved this place before Covid and we finally went back and it did not disappoint. Usually I get their breakfast tacos, their original breakfast tacos, these tacos... are amazing!! The way they cook the egg to fit the tortilla is genius, the pineapple and spicy sauce, with the zingy chorizo. To. Die. For. But this time I tried the Mexicali burrito (because ive only had the tacos) and it was good. Not as good, too much salsa IN a wrap but I managed. Cute place. Family run. Great food. Would recommend for a quick "greasy spoon" breakfast in parma. read more

A solid better-than-your-average-diner kind of place! It's a small place, so be prepared to wait if it's busy. We waited about 10 minutes or so on a late Sunday morning. The waitresses were friendly, the coffee was hot and refilled often, and the food was good. read more

Before heading down to southern Ohio for Labor Day weekend, my dude and I decided to head out to this place he had been to before for good diner food. We got there just in the knick of time, because right after we were seated, there was a line almost out the door to be seated. It was a very tight maze getting to our booth in the corner by the window of this diner. Aside from feeling super cramped, the service was great, and the food was even better. I ordered the chorizo wrap with salsa, cheese and sour cream, while my better half got the chicken and waffles. They put this special sugary syrup on the waffles. It's not maple syrup, but almost like a sticky icing. It's to die for, and pairs so well with the savory chicken chunks. We also added a sunny side up egg to the dish, because of course, eggs should be on everything. We left the diner with a bill of around $20, adding coffee and a tip to the bill. Not a bad fee for good service and good food. read more
