I have been going here for years. The owner is very rude and ignorant. I've seen him loose a whole line of customers because of rude he is. They will never get another dime from me.

Food: Maple Pepper Fried Chicken Benedict was delicious - the poached eggs were runny and the home fries was hot, crispy and seasoned well. Service: Here is where the dining experience faltered. The waitress (Michelle) was clearly impatient, unfriendly and didn’t live up to the “friendly vibes” in the description of this diner. While taking my orders, she grabbed my menu after my food order and started to walk away when I still haven’t ordered my coffee. Then she chucked the cutlery on the counter to my side rudely, followed by my food where she just dumped the plate loudly in front of me without saying a word. She slipped the check right after my last bite, and then didn’t bother to come again even when I placed my credit card almost immediately and another waitress had to remind her that I’m done. All in all, the service was terrible unfortunately, which spoiled the diner experience as the food and vibes were quite impressive.

Great breakfast! Potatoes are a little strong on the seasoning but still very good. Get the fried banana bread! Great service!

Nothing exceptional but nicely made classic diner food. Really big portions at reasonable prices and the interior is fun. I will say the toilet isn't the best. I recommend the Frappés. I really liked the vanilla flavoured one.

Génial, c’est un lieu génial. Ouvert 24h/24 7j/7 , le logo très quitch posé sur ce qui ressemble à un wagon vous fait pénétrer comme dans un film. Le bar où tu peux t’assoir en voyant frire des pommes de terre pendant que le juke box lâche des standards. Le service est souriant et gentil , c’est bon copieux , pas super diététique mais nous sommes là pour profiter du cœur de l’Amérique et on est heureux . Quelle super découverte !!!

A true diner in the heart of Boston. Very kind staff. You can watch your food get made and overall, it’s quite clean. The oil may need changing, but the fried goods still taste very well. The food tastes like home and exactly what you’d expect. It’s a true diner, not like the modern approaches.
