"The food was Excellent, and even though the diner was completely filled we didn't have to wait long to be Seated and Served. Our waitress was welcoming and polite even though she must've been busy. She checked on us often and it didn't take nearly as long as I had assumed it would for us to get our food. We were all happy with our meals. It's a great spot to take older folks to with it's homey atmosphere and comfort food that's well made. Can't wait to go back and try more of the menu!"
