Tucked in the middle of the town of Escondido, CA, we found this wonderful gem of a diner. The food was tasty and delicious! Battered fries were generous and crisp. Topped with a homemade chili! The burger patty was moist and not overpoweringly beefy. The Reuben sandwich was crisp and had a good amount of corned beef to satisfy! All in all good delicious comfort food!

Stopped here randomly on a Saturday morning and was so glad we did! The food tastes as good as it looks. I especially loved their home fries, some of the best I’ve ever had at any breakfast spot. Our waitress Saniyah was fabulous and a sweet and smiley girl, which is always a bonus when eating out.

The service was very good! This place is like an old-school diner. Definitely a chill atmosphere. They also have some fun breakfast options. There was a whole flower on my croissant French toast! Highly recommend this dish…”Dream” something. It was delicious down to the flower 🤩

Sweet little mom and pop place. Service was very friendly and food was made fresh to order.The country potatoes were perfectly seasoned. The French toast is to die for because they use a delicious cinnamon bread

Sweetest little mom and pop place. They have great service and delicious food. Their French Toast is freaking amazing and I don't even like French Toast (hubby loves FT and can't get enough of the FT here)

Great little find in Escondido. I know it's been here for awhile but I haven't heard much about it and finally saw a post somewhere else on fb so we thought we'd try it. The diner is a totally cool throwback in both furnishings and decor. Our awesome waitress Rosy was so cute she looked like she stepped right our of a postcard from the 60's and she was more than attentive. She wrote hardly anything down but didn't forget a single thing. The food was awesome and the homemade cinnamon rolls are ginormous and delicious. Definitely go if you're looking for good breakfast grub. We will be back!

Had lunch today with my husband and son and the food and service was great. I had the Aubrey Hepburn with a burger patty cooked to perfection and the seasoning was delicious and it was plated beautifully.

This was one of the worst restaurant experiences of my life. When you walk in the place nobody acknowledged us for 10 minutes. Another couple ahead of us left. I was foolish enough to give this place another shot. The last time we came here there was hardly anyone there and they forgot about us too. We only went back because of their French toast- which is super good. For the SECOND time they served me ROTTEN, EXPIRED JUICE- which was fizzing and fermented. The manager there doesn't seem to have a handle on that place - their service sucks. I totally get if there is a staff shortage - my heart bleeds for people who work hard in the restaurant business. The food is good - I will say that- but for giving that place a second shot - not worth it- next time I will go to a chain like IHOP where they actually know what they are doing.
