Since I was a child I have been going here. This is always my famlies choice for quick, good food. Their menu is massive and last week when I went I noticed the prices have defintely gone up. (All of their wraps were $10.95!!) I thought that was a little steep. I love their desserts, and they have a wide selection of typical diner food. The place is very clean and the booths are nice and roomy. What I do not like is when I go there the waitstaff is always inconsistant. Either I have a great waiter/waitress or they are horrible and I want to hit them with my french fries. I usually ask for an older woman with blonde hair SHE IS AMAZING. I think they need to re-vamp their waitstaff. Overall, love this place and yet another place where the green goddess dressing is AMAZING.

Went for lunch and wanted some comfort food and the chicken pot pie was one of the specials. Service was great and very friendly given that it was quite busy inside.
The chicken pot pie should have been thicker because this was just a few ladles of chicken soup broth.
Very disappointing but good service.

Sadly for me, this diner is sub-par.
The food is either hit or miss, one thing can be REALLY good but then next can be meh. I also found that it can be a little pricey when it comes to some things.
The place itself is nice and clean with a decent waitress staff. -

I'm pretty easy to please when it comes to breakfast, but this place was just awful.
Stopped in late one morning, as it was the only thing open. Eggs were like cardboard, homefries had no seasoning, and the bacon was just off.
The one star is for the service, which was good. -

Local 24 hr diner. The service is fast if you need to eat in a hurry. The dining room is super clean seeing that it is open for 24 hours. Be careful not to break any of the diner's "rule's" or you will be kicked out. Yes, this dinner actually has a set of about 10 rules posted on the wall.
The "special" omelet with feta, tomato, and bacon is pretty good. I'll usually order the omelet or a gyro and a cup of chicken soup. Soda comes in a teeny tiny glass and they charge you for refills which isn't cool.
I am not a big fan of the sandwiches as they are a bit mediocre. I don't understand how my breakfast can come with bacon cooked perfectly but my blt has old, chewy bacon??? -

This is your standard diner. We usually frequent this place for a late lunch or dinner. They have a very large menu, with very large portions. I wouldn't expect gourmet dining here, but you will definitely get your money's worth. The servers are friendly and polite. Overall it was a good diner experience. Major plus for being open 24 hours, it's a great place to stop after clubbing in New Haven.

I went there for some food later last Saturday. The food was good. The waitresses were very nice. The man at the front desk, Utka or Utko, something like that, was one of the rudest people I have ever encountered. We asked if we could split the bill on two debit cards and he refused and said something under his breath. After he threw our cards back at us I said politely "There is no reason to be rude." He then looked up at me, smirking and asked "if I frequent there because he doesn't recognize me." As if I would be treated better if he remembered me? I am from a town over and have certainly been there before, but I assured him I would never come there again. As we left our waitress along with another waitress came up to us and apologized for Utka's behavior and went on to say that he treats them just as disrespectful and urged us to follow through with a complaint. After hearing this man also treats the staff that way I was more inclined to make a complaint. I am 27 years old, not some drunk underage kid that I sure stumbles in there and causes problems after the bar now and again. I was with 3 other adults (who work down the street) and I can say with certainly that none of us would return to that diner unless that man was gone.
As a business owner in this economy losing any customers has to be troublesome. This man is losing business for the owners and creating a toxic work environment. I suggest the waitresses talk to a lawyer. -

Classic Greek-owned diner with the standard diner fare. I hadn't been to the place in years and thought I'd stop in for old times sake. They have good, cheap eats with satisfying portions.

Pretty good Greek diner with a big menu, reasonable prices, and OPEN LATE! Check out the HUGE pastries in the bakery.
The food is OK. Pretty much standard diner stuff. The fried zucchini sticks were tasty. Spanakopita was OK, huge and somewhat sloppy, didn't seem entirely fresh but still tasty. Came with a yummy Greek salad.
Be careful, if you order a burger with fries it's "deluxe" (costs more).
Service is efficient if not overly friendly.
