There are not many great choices is this part of town but if you need a good meal or in my research mission a selection of freshly made donuts, this place will not steer you long.
Great little place to eat and have one of the BEST apple fritters in town.Made fresh every morning and again about Noon-1:00 daily.
Awesome food great management and doughnuts. Cheap and huge portions will be going back soon. Cash only is the only downfall but oh well homie feeling makes up for it.
The donuts are amazing!!! The food...not so much! They are always putting out fresh donuts, all day long. They have the best creme filled anywhere around. The food on the other hand...is the opposite. Small portions and lacking any real flavor. It's worth a drive from anywhere in town for their donuts, but don't come expecting good food.
Old-fashined deliciousness!. Been a regular for over 10 years and still loving it. Might be the best apple fritters in Ohio! Breakfast and lunch is always fresh and good too. Family owned and run. Gotta love those Greeks and their diners.
Best donuts in Columbus. Worth the trip. Especially fresh.
Good old fashioned diner serving some deliciousness for either breakfast or lunch. I had the double cheeseburger with bacon, cheeseburger, fries, cinnamon rolls, their breakfast sandwich (BEC), coffee, and their chili. I have not been disappointed. You may order the meat your style. For me, preferably medium well. The burger is massive and it’s taste deliciously impactful. If you dine in, you will listen to some nice tunes from specific eras and genres. You may dine in and or order take out. Prices are decent. Staff is amazing. Parking in front of the restaurant. Excellent prices!
Love the old-school diner vibe. Very affordable place. Originally when I came in I didn’t know what I wanted so I just started off with a donut and coffee. The coffee is your standard black coffee with cream and sugar. It was fine I had got a glazed doughnut and I really couldn’t taste anything other than bread.
I decided that I wanted a little more to eat so I got the steak and egg breakfast comes with home fries and toast The steak was good. I got a medium well was a little tougher than I wanted it to be the eggs were good also.
THE HIBACHI DISH IS GREAT. COOKED ON THE EXACT POINT, EXCELENT FLAVOR AND A REALLY NICE SERVICE.
AND... YOU HAVE TO CHECK THEIR RECORD COLLECTION ON THE WALLS. IT'S AMAZING!!
Great food at perfect prices and amazing staff!! New to this place but I see now why they have very faithful regulars (whom the staff know by name!) Definitely a gem and my only regret is that it took me so long to check them out after arriving in the area.
Thanks Pete and crew!
(My pics don't do it justice- didn't want to photo the staff or the patrons seated at the counter on the other side of the diner)
I grew up with my grandmother coming to this establishment all the time. The fact that business around this place have come and gone and they are still there is legendary. The service is outstanding. The menu is sublime. Especially the apple fritter french toast. It's cozy for a couple. Great for kids. Has everything even Asian food. I will always keep coming back.
Everything was amazing.
The coffee was great. The food was amazing. The tunes were out of this world.
The Golden Buster, consisting of potatoes, cheese, ham, gravy and eggs was to die for.
The donuts are made in the back and are awesome too.
I can't wait to come back.
Records on the wall, smiles on faces, apple fritter in belly: this is a pleasant place.
The music is funky and fun and sets an atmosphere that makes one feel groovy. The food all looks simple and well prepared. The prices are right too.
This is the epitome of an old time diner and I would recommend it for anyone looking for one. My only complaint is that for travelers it is out of the way and the neighborhood is not the best, though it doesn't feel unsafe.
This review would have had 19 donuts for me to show off, but because they are so delicious they sold out of most of their inventory before I was able to get there. 😭 Honestly, it’s probably good that I was only able to score one apple fritter because it would have been a pretty overwhelming temptation to justify practicing for my next eating competition.
All I can comment on is the donuts because I’ve never had any other menu item, but I’m sure everything is delicious...
As for the donuts, they are some of THE best I’ve ever had. They still make them old school, fried in oil, out of what seems like a batter made on site, like formerly good companies like Dunkin Donuts and Der Dutchman used to do. The fritter was crispy and sweet on the outside and soft and sticky and flavorful all the way through. THIS is what a fritter should be. And the fact that I recently had such a disappointing realization of Der Dutchman’s downfall (reference my review) makes this all the sweeter.
Shop local and support this small business for serving us amazing food during the governor’s COVID restrictions!
Delicious as usual. Great service, good atmosphere. It's like Cheers...neighborhood place where everyone knows your name, even when they don't, it feels like they do. Nice place for a quick brunch/lunch meeting with my daughter and business partner.
Great first experience! Very friendly owner/manager and delicious donuts at an amazing price. Looking forward to going back for a full
breakfast.
