I had the vegetable omelet no cheese. It was made with fresh vegetables (broccoli, spinach, onions, peppers, and mushroom). It comes with your choice of toast and home fries. I had the raisin bread toast. The meal was delicious. Very good service and clean establishment. I will definitely return.

Great prices and selection. This place is the ultimate cheap diner in Boston! Bonus points for their delicious grilled muffins and their participation on the Too Good To Go app.

This Is a 3 star place when it comes to service efficiency. They have issues with order taking and time to deliver food to the table. However the food is ok for a diner style of food and do not want to lower their rating too much on Google. They can fix the service issues with a little effort. The food was tasty and priced appropriately. Enjoyed the Thai iced tea with breakfast 😁. Parking is tough here so if you are on foot or using public transportation you are golden, there is a bus and metro stops just across the street. The place was packed when I arrived but only waited 15 to get seated and as much to get my order taken. Felt bad for the table next to me who were waiting for longer. Note that when you get your bill they would add the 7% tax to each item on the bill so the prices on the menu and bill are off. It is weird the system they are using.

Everything, truly everything, is delicious. The pancakes are perfect, the eggs are always masterfully done, the burgers taste incredible, their Thai iced teas are heavenly, it’s all amazing. Sometimes they’re the reason I get up in the morning. The only downside is that they close in the afternoon, otherwise I’d be grabbing dinner here too.

No negatives means all positives. Good food, fair price, friendly service. The place was quiet this morning (noise level) even though it was half full - - mostly workers - and some students. Great job. My two-egg breakfast with bacon, toast, and coffee was only $10.20

Really good food for amazing prices. In Boston it's hard to find food that's not pricey. If you love traditional American comfort food you'll love it here. It's like Waffle House but better quality. Bill was $20 for two large platters for two people. Was packed when we got here but we waited for about 15min and were seated on a Sunday at around noon. Our waitress asked if we wanted free refills at the end. Per someone else’s Google review, I ordered the corned beef hash and two eggs with toast and breakfast potatoes. All were good. Be aware that a lot of crazy-looking / unsanitary people may be here at the same time as you, or hungover college students. But everyone has a right to service of course, so do not be afraid. It is a good spot for those not looking to spend too much money. Very convenient for public transit as it's right off the Washington St stop.
