    I normally go to this little gem that's serves delicious food and has great service with great prices. The owner, He is absolutely amazing and has a heart of gold. I called him to find out if there was any way I could get some homemade stuffing/filling because I just brought my mom home from the nursing home after being there for a year and a 1/2 and That was one of her special requests for Mother's Day. Of course, He said wish granted, Your mother needs some good homemade filling after eatting nursinghome food lol! We need more people like this in the world! A+++

    Best breakfast in Harrisburg, period. Well, aside from my own kitchen anyway! I LOVE the food, it’s like no other. I literally will not eat anywhere else for my breakfast. Why settle? Excellent service. Always go in feeling appreciated. Thank you Lou and Nancy!

    Service was good. Food very good except my eggs weren't really over easy. More like over hard. Place was clean.

    I use to go here all the time back in the early 90's. I had not been here since 95. Oh my it's still best food prices and portions in the Burg! Definitely a locals spot and anyone who works in the downtown capital area. Stop in look at this $9 meatloaf with double mash. 😋😋😋

    I met a friend of mine there for breakfast,I had eggs and potatoes w/coffee,he had coffee…unbeknownst to us,and the help never told us,that they charged me for EACH CUP OF COFFEE,after the first refill!!🙄🙄Ive been going to diners for 51 years and only one other time has this happened!I talked to the owner and cashier;the owner said “coffee is expensive “and wasn’t willing to work with me….🥲🥲😡😡I go there about 2-3 times a year;NEVER AGAIN FOR ME!!
