Nice staff but our experience was pretty bad.We came in and they told us to take the middle table. It was set but dirty. We have a kid, so we have wipes and cleaned it off.About 5 minutes later we got menus. While waiting to order (10-15 mins later) several groups came in after us, sat down, ordered, and got drinks before anyone came to even get our drink order.After a long while we got to place our order and requested a high chair.After an even longer while, the other groups were eating.My gf noticed where they had high chairs so I got one.We got our food. My gf's first bite garnered this response, "this is awful." Shes never that blunt.She ordered biscuits and gravy. The biscuits are pretty dense and there was a very light coating of gravy.My breakfast sandwich was supposed to have jalapeno aioli. It did not.We waited to see if anyone was gonna check on us, and then I went to the counter to order a side of gravy and aioli.A while later we got it.The bread on my sandwich was good. The egg was supposed to be over easy. It was over well. There was no runny bit of the egg.The side of fruit we got was good.The hashbrowns were terrible. Im not sure how that even happens.Overall we spent over an hour here. There was probably 20-30 minutes more than needed waiting for service. The restaraunt was busy but watching people come after us, order, and get their food before us meant we were just in some kind of limbo.It felt like the table was somehow invisible in the space, despite being in the middle of everything.There was a lot of little things that made the experience bad, however, the food was not good. Thats really the biggest thing that matters.I was shocked to have an experience like this in something rated 4+ stars.Maybe it was just a fluke, but it felt more like what Ive seen or read in 3.4-3.6 rated places.

I have been waiting for over 3 weeks to get a refund on an order they never processed. In that time I have called the restaurant 7 times and left my name and number so many times but I haven't received any response, no apology or even a time frame for this refund.At one point I was told to send an email to their manager with my order details. I sent an email on March 6th with screenshots of everything. I have received no response.I have been so courteous and understanding every time I have called, however I hear people laughing in the background when they explain that I am calling again.This company has been dismissive of my very reasonable requests and I do not get the feeling they have any respect for their customers.

Ok let me break this one down cuz this one was hard to rate So here's my rating for a number of things Service: 5 stars Food: 4 stars Ambiance: 4 stars Let me explain Since I'm a stickler for service. I'll begin there The service here was amazing. They have a very warm and relatable welcome. When we walked in, they said "sit anywhere you like!" Which for me is always the best option! Throughout our time eating, they checked in on us regularly, refilling moms coffee in the process The one thing that I liked is that a number of their staff checked in on us and made us feel welcome. It wasn't just the waitress. It was a manager, a busser, and the waitress and another server. This place looked like a quality team Ambiance So the ambiance in my opinion was bland. It was basic I was surprised too because it seemed that each of the staff members had cool ass personalities and a unique presence about them. So I'm just curious how it didn't transfer over to the whole store On one hand the had a classic diner vibe with original/original-looking furniture. Which is cool I love the fact that they had so many tables as well as a bar It's a real classic look which I love so much They have a cool chalk/marker board for the menu specials and updates - which is a great touch! (They also have regular menus too) They had a cool TV playing something from TBS which is sets such a "home feel" Love it Buuuuuuut, my opinion is modernize it a little more Some retro pictures of movies, retro pictures of actors and actresses, and a little plant life ....anything to give it more personality The neon sign, tv and menu board are great starts to something bigger It would give this awesome diner and new face One that catches peoples eyes Anywho - The food! Ok so food is basic diner food I've only been here once and I'm definitely coming back But they had a few classics like country fried steak and buscuits and gravy which is a must at a diner haha So they have plenty of options and they are affordable I got the Mediterranean omelette and mom got country fried steak and eggs She got coffee I got tea Now the Mediterranean omelette was what I rate a 4 It's good But there wasn't enough feta cheese on or inside In my opinion I'd like some black olives too but that's just me being a picky ass But definitely get me on the cheese I need that The other reason why I give it a 4 is because it was safe Meaning there wasn't much personality Classic omelette with basic flavors - yes No seasoning Not bad but Not great no personality Soooo it was good. Buuuut the eggs were cooked perfect The country potatoes had a cool flavor profile They were very balanced and Smokey and cooked perfectly Still not seasoned with some type of salt but there were classic salt shakers on the table so we are ok Mom mom loved the country fried steak! The gravy was great. And I took some of that gravy and mixed it with the potatoes Needless to say, I was licking my lips and fingers clean from that mixture!!! The toast was good with the little packets of butter that they provide Easy to spread which is good Classic jelly's and creamers on the side which is plus Also when I ordered tea, they brought honey Which I used on my toast which was sooooooo damn good Again 4 because it was good Flavors were good But only 4 because of lack of personality Again that's just my opinion I definitely recommend this spot. I've marked it down as a favorite and plan to try and number of different things Might even change this rating to a 5 depending on how many dishes I can take down haha So

Terrible customer service. Was not checked on whole meal service. Had to ask different servers for help the whole time. Bland food. Couldnt split my handwritten bill due to our party being of 4. Never coming back.

Great food, it was delicious, his place had a nice ambiance, the customer service was good.

The food is okay, it's never hot and it lacks flavor. I've had a lot of different foods from here and they all just are lacking even I could make it better. As for the a service I waited half an hour for the food in an empty restaurant there was no one?? The vibe is fine just annoying to wait so long for subpar food.

Cold coffee, waitress was preoccupied doing other things. Don't know why restaurant was not busy. Booths were not clean, paid and tipped, because I'm a good person. But I won't be back.

The place's very well-located but they are dirty. The utensils they left on the table were dirty, tables, floors and all in this place was unpresentable for service food.
Average diner with a friendly staff. The prices however, do not fit the venue.

Favorite cafe in LA. I get my car looked at two blocks away, so I always stop here to wait. Outdoor patio, awesome food that other diners might charge more for.

Our first time here. It looks like this place has been here for many years. I had the short stack and my wife ordered the corn pancakes with bacon and two eggs. Everything was cooked perfectly and as ordered. The staff was very friendly.
Kelly C.
Well my guy and I was in the area so did a Google search and stopped in......ordered a jumbo combo and the pancakes were rubbery food was room temperature. My guy ordered French toast and it was burnt. I only gave a 2 star because our waitress was sweet. Unfortunately the ambiance was ok but we won't be back
