    Bacon and eggs
    Gigi A.

    I was excited to try this place given that it was a few minutes from our house. There was plenty of parking and we were sat right away. The food was good with huge portions. Not fancy, but solid which is what you want sometimes for breakfast. It had a small town diner feel and the service was excellent. My coffee was consistently replenished and we were attended to appropriately. Pancakes were huge, fluffy, and delicious. Bacon and sausage were perfectly prepared. All the food was excellent. The only negative was that there was no splenda for the coffee only sweet-n-low and equal. Otherwise, everything was great. Will be back.

    Broccoli bacon cheddar quiche with fruit

    Popular weekend breakfast spot serving omelets, skillets, pancakes and biscuits. Daily specials are on the board - if you see any quiches on the list, I wouldn't pass them up. My bacon, broccoli and cheddar quiche came with a small bowl of fresh fruit. Hearty biscuits and gravy is great with a side of sausage links. Good selection of omelets. My coffee cup always stays full, no matter how busy they are. Plenty of parking.

    So, so good. We missed hotel breakfast this morning and so far, that was the best thing that happened today, cause it landed us here. Spacious dining room, lots of booth seating. Good service. Breakfast here was really, really good. Everything. Omelette, scramble, Benny, even the biscuits, and the English muffin in the Benny. They have daily specials, then hand written boards with seasonal specials, and I don't know what to call them, "special specials" perhaps? Spotted the hostess taking pictures of the hand written board when we came in, I peeked at the Facebook page and saw it's posted there in case you want to get a look at it before you go. Only open 8a-3p

    1/2 of a Turkey Sid 's Ruben. The best ever!

    Okay, I never give out 5 stars. I'm giving this place 5 stars. The reason? Everything! The food is the best diner food I have ever had. The staff was friendly and supper knowledgeable about the menu. The place wasn't fancy, but nice. I'm telling you I had the Sid, Turkey Ruben and it was as the best I have ever had. They maKe homemade biscuits from scratch as big as a saucer. A must go to in Ann Arbor.

    I go here often with my kids. They love the childrens pancakes, bacon & sausage. I always order the steak & eggs. Everything is always fresh & cooked to perfection. Definitely the best diner in Ann Arbor. Loving going here & highly recommend!

    This place is amazing! It has a huge menu, extremely kind waiters, and there was food I didn't even know existed. I got hot chocolate which was so delicious. I also got pancakes with cherry's, chocolate chips, and whip cream. It was the best thing I ever tasted!! I recommend this place, it is also the first place that I did a Yelp review on. I live in New York and came here to Michigan but now I am willing to come here again just to come to this place.

    I will preface this review by admitting that I might be biased. I came here after running a 5K race on an empty stomach in the morning, so I would have eaten anything! And I nearly finished my plate of their special salmon eggs benedict, which came with a side of greasy hash browns. The filling, delicious food made it completely worth it to undo all my hard work in training for this 5K. In addition to the food, the setting also reminded me of your classic American diner. I will make sure to go back on a regular day so as to not be influenced by my post-running stomach! As well as keeping this place bookmarked to celebrate future post-5K races.

    Pecan topped Belgian Waffle with grilled apple slices a warm caramel sauce topped with whipped cream!    I would highly recommend this!

    One of my favorite low-key spots for breakfast in Ann Arbor. Affordable and tasty. Been open for a long time as well.

    Wow. What a discovery. Second lunch here. Sweet and sour soup is wonderful. Must return for dinner. Small but stunning lunch menu.

    Ok, so I was so pleasantly surprised by this place! I can't believe I had never been here before!…read more We made a reservation for 4 and were seated right away at a cute table with booths that were tall so it felt a little bit more private. The wait staff were super friendly. The drinks were also really good, and the spicy margarita may honestly be my favorite one in Ann Arbor! The appetizers and entree (we got the duck) were also tasty, but portions were on the smaller side. Timing of the meal was perfect, and I would definitely come back!

    We came for the steak and it did not disappoint! I got the Steak Frites and it was cooked perfectly…read moreand cut up! The portion was perfect for me. Their ambiance is really nice with saxophone music playing, unique wall paper, and pretty lights. Our server was really friendly and helpful. I will say, my plate had a stain on it when I first sat down so I asked for a fresh one. The waitress let us know that typically dinner takes a whole of 1.5 hours. She said she times it based off of how we eat. For example, she brings the drinks and appetizers out first and then once we finish that, she brings the salad or soup. And then from there, she brings the entree's. Their beignet bread was delicious with the garlic butter (I even asked for seconds later on)!! Their salad was also really tasty (I got the lemon dressing one) and it comes with croutons that are just like the beignet bread but made in smaller sizes and slightly crispier. We enjoyed calamari and fig with bacon appetizers. Everything was very tasty! We will definitely return! Bathroom was clean but the seat was just super low (like for a child). We parked at the nearby lot and it cost $9 for about 2 hours.

    The West End Grill - I love mushrooms so I was delighted by this app. A trio of mushrooms was served on pastry with a tasty port sauce.

    Great vibes + Excellent Service + Good Grub = Casey's…read more And that's a math fact! Also- good proximity to the train station, Yost Ice Arena, and other cool stuff.

    Stopped by with friends who haven't been here before... we can on a Monday and thank goodness it…read morewas slow. Seating was simple and quick... they do check your ID at the door before you get seated. Interior hasn't changed and I don't expect it to change. I appreciate the old vibe that place gives. For meal, we ordered: - few onions rings - Fried Artichoke Hearts - 2 regular burgers and 1 order "over the top" - few beers The service is hit or miss, depends on how busy the place gets... our waitress was working six tables by herself, but she did all she could to help. The onion rings were awesome, fried artichoke hearts, you can skip... for the burgers, I would recommend you stick to classic - meat, cheese, lettuce, tomato and onions. We all got it med, the meat was juicy as usual and we all enjoyed it. The draft beer that I ordered was flat unfortunately. When we got our check I noticed that there was a "convenience fee 3%", which is applied to your meal prices only. I'm not a fan of convenience fee, if they are trying to offset the credit card charges or adjust their prices due to the inflation or higher material costs, they should just raise their prices to offset those. I also didn't see anything about convenience fee being added, granted if it was in a smaller print so I could have missed it. It seems everyone is adding on convenience fee to everything.
