Service was good. Seating and decor felt like old school diners you see in the movies, which I enjoyed. Steak was underdone and was sent back, then overdone! Overdone steak tasted fine though. Liked the bottomless coffee. Free parking.

Authentic diner dining. The menu is extensive, wonderful selection. I had the grilled haddock which was perfect. The seasonal vegetables were so good that I woukd have been happy with a plateful of those for dinner . The service was great and friendly.

Friendly staff, good food and huge portions. The club sandwich is massive and easily feeds two. I really enjoyed my Buffalo chicken salad. Not very busy late on a Saturday afternoon

This is our favorite breakfast spot in San Diego. The food is always fresh! The kiddos enjoy the pancakes that look like movie reels and the scenery. My husband loves the bottomless mimosas and I'm there for that and everything in between. Definitely tasty! We will be back soon. :-)

This place is Great! The servers are Fun & Friendly. The atmosphere is movie themed based on the fact that it was built to feed the movie cast and crew that shot in the studio behind the diner. I had the Elvis Presley w/ Smuckers Breakfast Syrup, waffle fries w/ ketchup, Pepsi, & Chocolate Shake. My friend had a chicken salad & iced tea and the chicken in the salad was really good too. Appears you can’t go wrong here.

We had the Monte Cristo sandwich, the BLT, and the fish and chips. All were good and generous portions. My son didn’t care for the beer batter on the fish but the fish was good. The staff was helpful and attentive. Overall a good lunch experience.
