I fell in love with this little restaurant!! I hadn't been "home" for many years, and when I lived there, this place was not here. What a wonder place full of nostalgia!! Thank you for opening it!! It was perfect!!!

Just a small diner with good food. Definitely worth stopping by. The only complaint is not taking card in this day and age.

Really great food. Great service, other than my tables drinks didnt stay full. Cafe was really small bumping into strangers shoulders in order to set down but still worth the fantastic food.
