Turns out a girl I thought was part of another table to my right with some guys was actually our waitress! Plus it was hard to really know who the staff were. Really horrible service to begin with. Regardless of the service, the food was super delicious. My friend and I both shared dry rubbed chicken wings tossed in sweet buffalo sauce - amazing. We also got craft burgers and fries which were cooked to perfection. I ate everything and ate so fast I forgot to take photos of the food. Honestly, the food and the ambiance is the only reason why I'm giving 4 stars.

Today was the first time we've eaten here in years. We were seated immediately but we waited more than 40 minutes for the food to come. We watched people leave because they could not wait for their food any longer. At first, I thought a chef must have called out. When our food finally came, I was forced to look at the most unappealing home fries that were molded to the plastic container they were stored in. At least try to make them look fresh bru. And the whole restaurant was cold. I was cold. The food was cold. This place should be called COLD Street Diner, am I right? And the coffee refill came like once. In the whole hour and a half we were there. The only times someone would walk by was to clear a table, or that guy idk who he is idk if he's the owner but he was wearing balenciaga sweatpants and then he would just go stand by the register to sip on some wine. My mother ordered the huevos rancheros and they were bland asl. I ordered the birria omelette and it was BLAND EVERYTHING WAS BLAND!!! The birria was just wet it didn't taste like anything bro. We haven't been to the Norwalk location but a lady sitting next to us noticed that we weren't happy with our food and she was speculating that all the good cooks got transferred there. Whether it's the cooks to blame, or the fact that it's a busy Saturday, it's safe to say we will not be coming back.

Sorry that this review was sitting in my drafts since December!…read more Came here after work for happy hour. At first I got a little anxious because the bar was so busy, and loud. what stood out most was the service from Jenna, who was honestly a great bartender and really made the night feel welcoming. I wish I could say the same for the other bartender I saw, who came off a bit uncourteous to a man who accidentally spilled his shot. I tried a couple of their happy hour bites. The pineapple chili wings were juicy, flavorful, and good. On the other hand, my friend's garlic parm was kind of dry and flat in flavor, which was disappointing. Drinks were okay, but mine felt a bit weak on the alcohol side, especially for the price. Overall, it felt a little overpriced for what we got. Good for a night out and social energy, but a bit inconsistent depending on what you order and who's working.

All of the appetizers we ordered as a small party of 6, we were able to still share and kept us full enough before our entrees arrived. The entrees were just as yummy to eat. As for the round of desserts, I thoroughly enjoyed their chocolate cake and ice cream. The one comment I will add is that the staff could be a lot friendlier, upon arrival and leaving, with little to no interaction nor greeting (especially from the gentleman who was wearing a grey suit; unsure if he was just working the door area for reservations and seating/manager?). Our waiter was the sweetest young man, being extremely patience towards us taking time to order but also knowledgeable with the menu whenever we'd ask questions.

Bacon, egg and cheese on an everything bagel: It was a good bagel with a healthy amount of egg and cheese but with only 2 strips of bacon I can't justify why it came out to $10. Vietnamese coffee: right amount of sweetness. The description matched the coffee. Cinnamon roll: absolutely horrible. Do not order this. It tasted like a mix of a croissant and a banana bread muffin. In no way shape or form should this have been allowed to be called a cinnamon roll.

Once we were seated the waiter arrived asking about drinks which we declined in favor of bottled water, i ordered coffee as well and was offered 1 whole cup. Nobody came around for refill the rest of the meal We each ordered an appetizer and a main, both of our mains featuring 2sunny side up. 15 -20 minutes later BOTH entrees and my appetizer arrive WTF? After that our server just seemed to disappear. My daughter had hangar steak & eggs. I had the pork carnitas and eggs. Both our order's eggs were ordered sunny side up. Typically it's the yolks that are runny but both of our orders had runny whites as well. All this time we waited on the other appetizer to arrive. For a place that was not very busy the service was galactically awful. The food was passable but not great. The banana bread appetizer arrived as the busboy came to take our entree dishes. And that was after 2 reminders to our waiter (both appetizers were taken to go). Whoever is running this place (nobody game by asking how our meal was) should be embarrassed. When i spoke with our waiter about the abysmal service he passed it off on the busboy! There is no sense of teamwork nor pride in doing a good job. Sad.
