Came in for a take-out breakfast. Was in and out in less than 15 minutes. My order was perfect, the food was excellent and the price was right. Very nice lady took my order and the place was very clean and tidy. Was my first time ordering from here, and I will definitely be going back someday. 5 stars!

This has always been a go-to place for comfort food. Locals know about this restaurant and come here often. The food never disappoints. I enjoy their burger with pastrami. It is soooo good.
