The texture of it with the bene egg was perfect. It is served over loose has browns, cooked so soft and a little crispy. Kevin had the Bomblette - the beef was a little dry. Also it was unevenly distributed. It looked fantastic and the home fries were delicious. The toast was lightly toasted with butter. They have Sriracha, Tabasco, & Cholula hot sauces available. Along with salt & pepper, ketchup, a bucket of creamers, and butter bucket also. For drinks we had water and coffee. I wanted to bring the mug home. So cute - friends with benedicts. Love it! Thanks to previous yelp reviewers for this rec. You're awesome!

I arrived an hour before closing. I was given a menu and coffee. Ordering was very easy. The food came out in a timely manner. They have all the classic diner options. While the food was great, the service wasn't as welcoming. They did not come to check in or refill my coffee like they were to others. Whether that is because of me dining alone, me coming close to closing time or due to my race, I guess we will never know. I did go up to the counter request more coffee and a to-go box. Expect to pay ~$15-20 for food and coffee.

When given the bill, asked "how was everything". When honest about our exeperince waitress apologized and took hot coffee off the bill. While leaving, we talked to a party who was also heading out. They only received waters and never got food. They said they sat for an hour and wouldn't be back. Understand it's mothers days but it was known to busy and they should have planned for this.
