"The food, the service, the atmosphere were all great. It's like walking back in time... and that's a good thing. No extra hustle and bustle just a good diner. The vegetable soup was so good- warmed me up immediately. I had an odd taste for beets that day. The meatball sub was perfection flavor and amount. My server was a kind young man from Greece and I appreciated his personable manners. The space had plenty of seating and lots of regulars. I look forward to returning as I too was made to feel at home in this homely restaurant. Again great food. Great service. And the food came out fast!!!!"

"Been a staple in the Charlotte area for years. The menu hasn't changed much since I was last here some years ago. The food is still delicious and served pretty quickly. They will accommodate larger parties of diners, too. Breakfast served all day, too."
