I went with a friend for breakfast and was looking forward to Eggs Benedict. It was $18.95. I thought it was too big, so I ordered the single, with hollandaise on the side. The egg was just like a hard boiled egg - hard with no running yolk. I dipped my fork into the sauce and it was horrible - tasted like chicken noodle soup mix! The waiter didn't ask me how I wanted it, and when he came back to the table he didn't ask how it was (which was obvious since I cut into it and didn't eat anything but the hash browns) nor did he comment: oh, didn't you like it? He simply took it away. He never came back. We were waiting for a bill, so finally we just went to the front to pay - and he handed me the bill which was $17.95 for my single Benny. I said oh no, this is a mistake, I only had one. He said well, just because it's half doesn't mean it's half the price - we just deduct $1. I said: well if I would have known that, I wouldn't have ordered it! And now I have to pay that much for something that was awful? I didn't expect half the price, but I surely didn't expect one terrible egg for $17.95. It sucked and his attitude sucked. I'll never go back. Lesson learned.

We've started haunting this place pretty regularly on the weekends for breakfast. It's not a fancy place but that's not why you go, it's got a fun old school vibe and good menu, plus you can't beat the prices. Staff are always pleasant and foods pretty good.

Always a fantastic meal at this legendary treasure. My favorite diner. Enjoy.
Server was polite but when I complained about sour bacon he said "oh, well nobody else seemed t9 have an issue" lol, as if my concern was unpaid.Not to mention the crackhead who came and passed out at the table behind us while the waiter ignored her presence and acted as if that was okay in a restaurant.
