This place is yummy! I've tried coming here a couple of times but have always been told the wait is 2+ hours long. However, I tried again at 3pm on a Sunday and there was no wait!! I ordered the steak and eggs and friend got the pastrami sandwich. Both were delicious!! The steak was cooked perfectly and the sauce on top was a great addition. The eggs were also the right amount of salty and was simply delicious. The potatoes were just all right, but overall, the entire dish was great! The pastrami sandwich was so cheesy it was delicious. I will definitely come back again

I was pleasantly surprised by this spot. From the outside, it looks like a typical hole-in-the-wall, but inside, it's modern and inviting. I had the Kale Caesar salad with grilled chicken for lunch, and it was absolutely scrumptious. The complimentary bread? Thick, buttery, and perfect. And their fresh-pressed green juice? AMAZING! I'll definitely be coming back for more.

Elevated diner see on And Just Like That! It was much nicer/fancier that I remembered on the show. They have outside and inside seating options. My friend got two drinks pictured and she enjoyed them! The tuna tartare was also pretty delicious, however I don't think that the chips served with them were a good matching. I ordered the wedge salad which was absolutely filling and delicious. A little too much onions, I mistook them for bacon numerous times, but a really good option! The service was a bit slow and the staff missed one of my orders, but regardless pretty good spot and I'll definitely be back!

Came here for a work lunch for 6 and there was plenty of seating both inside and outside. They don't have high chairs or changing tables but our baby was fine. Staff was helpful and you can easily split the check with toast. Blat - very tasty. Elevated blt with arugula and avocado Salmon pastrami - more of a lox texture. It was ok but small Biscuit - savory and sweet

We accidently found this Diner and it was fantastic! Very charming, set in an old stainless steel Diner car- very well kept and clean. Bonus outdoor space was a nice option also. We had the eggs, sausage, bacon nd toast and ll was served hot and delicious!

Food 7/10 Loved the raspberry caramel espresso martini first of all. The food was solid diner food. Tbh my first diner experience, and I'm glad I got to experience this place. The food itself was good. Decent enough but not outstanding and a bit on the pricier side. I got the eggs benedict and my friend got the tomato soup and sandwich. Nothing out of the ordinary. Atmosphere 9/10 Really cool retro vibes. A lot of natural lighting Service 8/10 Nice and quite fast.

This joint is amazing!! Food was excellent! Sat at the bar which is my fav place to dine,especially in a diner!! Had so much fun with bartender DAISY, who was awesome! Large portions of food!! Loved the experience in a hot atmosphere!
