Light night or early morning hunger pangs keeping you awake? This old fashion grease spoon diner is the spot to be at. You know the term, "Don't judge a book by it's cover?" Well, in this case, it definitely applies to diner. Don't let it's shabby & crummy interior scare you away. I personally can't vouch much for the dining experience, but the food is pretty solid and it blows me away every time I dine in here.
During this specific visit, unlike all my other visits, it was crammed with people. Some people were not even dining, but they were with people who were and they just stood around being in the way of people who actually needs to dine in. They were obnoxiously loud and inappropriate. I don't know why management didn't throw them out or asked them to leave if they were just standing around. A lot of the diners were very loud already and the diner unfortunately, have these tacky speakers in the back end of the tables (on top of our booth) that were even louder. Hello, I can feel the sound waves literally vibrate off the damn table! I thought I was going deaf for a moment there, because I could barely hear my own voice or my conversation with my friends.
I ordered the fish dinner and quickly received it within minutes of ordering. However, I am quite annoyed that the people who sat across from us got their orders first, before us, when they sat down and ordered after us. My fish dinner was delicious! The greasy batter on the fish is crispy and has a nice crunch to it when you bite into the fish. I love how they cooked my fish well done so there is no natural fish stentch. The cole slaw have this buttery salty taste to it. It was served cold and just the right temperature. It has a nice smooth texture to it. Even though, I love the fish, I usually always go here for the hash browns. It's POTATO PERFECTION on a platter! It is cooked to a neat golden brown so it will have the right crunch. If you ever dine here, this is something I suggest you should always have as a side.
This diner is very generous with their portions and it is unquestionably affordable. Good cheap eats! The fact that it is 24/7 makes it much more convenient. Even though the backdrop of this diner may seem skeptical on the outside, you need to experience the food first, then trust me, you will be back. I only gave this a three stars, because the experience and ambiance of the place is not so wholesome. The food is definitely five stars. The service is more of a three to four stars.
