The breakfast is reliably good with many choices. The Day-After-Thanksgiving sandwich is a simple idea that they execute really well.

The chicken and waffles are fantastic, and you also get sausage or bacon! It's way more food than necessary, but worth it.

This modern American diner in the Heights has enormous breakfasts, excellent burgers, and stellar Texas short-order cooking. Read more

Vegetarian friendly - one of the few places where you get charged less if you skip the meat. Boom.

Good southern comfort food. The pecorino chicken was so flavorful and tasty. I enjoyed my lunch.

The breakfast is so good, but the fried chicken is to die for! Most delicious batter for it!

Jamaican jerk chicken wrap is godly. Ordered several times during the quarantine and it has yet to disappoint.

Went for brunch on saturday -- lots of people! Chicken and Fruit Waffle was DELICIOUS. Parmesan/cheddar grits are amazing as well!

They've changed the Chicken & Waffles recipe in the last 6-8 months - not as good as it used to be. But everything is is still great.

It didn't used to have a juice bar, but it does now after the refresh/remodel. Nice job. Good, solid food here. Nothing too fancy, but who wants fancy all the time?

Wont be going back. Described current Poor Experience to management/owners via their Facebook page & it was ignored. They simply don't care. Youthful inexperience & Pride will have them closed in 2yrs

Day after Thanksgiving Sandwich is by far the best on the menu. The chicken-and-waffles put all other attempts to SHAME.

It's not ok to hit screaming children but you're welcome to beat down their idiot, thoughtless parents.

Eat on outside deck and the French toast is awesome

Very disappointed. The service was terrible: the guys that work there are completely indifferent to their own incompetence and negligence. Never again. lola2009 is the wifi

Not very much steak on the Steak & Onion sandwich. It tastes good but I wouldn't order it again. The LT omelette is delicious, though.
Brandee AlyceAugust 24, 2013
There is a 60 cents charge if you place a "to-go" order
Jessica GriffinJune 8, 2013
The food was just alright... Nothing memorable there was little to no seasoning on the food.... It was a true eating for hunger not for pleasure.... I ordered the Breakfast Lola and was disappointed

Burger was good - fries were great.

Quick bites of American cuisine.
Crystal WhiteJanuary 15, 2012
Pecorino chicken would have been good if it wasn't overlooked til the consistency mirrored boot leather.

The prices aren't cheap, but the BYOB policy is great.
Gary CottonJune 3, 2012
Great food, great service, great prices.

Waited half hour for food that never came. After I complained they said they lost the number. But never bothered to come and asked what we ordered. Previous time they said they had a problem with pos.

Food is ok, service is poor. Lost order first time. 45 minutes to get food 2nd time and it wasn't hot. Wasn't very busy either. Needs better management.
