Description

This neighborhood spot handles the basics with a relaxed flexibility, even assembling off-menu breakfast sandwiches on grilled brioche when asked. While the kitchen turns out standard American diner fare, local regulars often point to quirkier menu features like the womlette—a waffle-omelette hybrid—and bowls of chili mac. An onsite espresso machine upgrades the usual diner coffee, and despite the fast-filling tables, the staff keeps the pace steady and accommodating.
