Walking
in
to
the
place
lifted
your
spirits.
Definitely
the
"Happy
Days"
50ish
vibe.
Loved
the
decor.
We
were
really
looking
forward
to
our
breakfast.
I
gave
the
diner
at
least
3
chances...sadly
I
(as
well
as
the
rest
of
us)
just
was
not
impressed
with
our
meals.
For
the
most
part
the
food
was
typical
(rather
bland),
nothing
special.
The
service
was
good,
however
the
food
portions
were
sadly
lacking.
We
honestly
had
high
hopes
for
this
place...
The
first
time
there
my
brother
ordered
the
Lamb
Shank
($19.00).
He
commented
on
the
size
of
it,
it
was
quite
small.
However,
he
said
it
was
tender,
nicely
cooked
that
had
some
roasted
veggies
of
carrots,
onions
and
some
mashed
potatoes.
But
no
"sides"
were
offered.
He
was
still
hungry!
So
of
course
the
rest
of
us
shared.
Our
Mom
had
the
Eggs
Benedict
($14.00)...it
of
course
consisted
of
the
basics;
the
english
muffin,
ordered
her
eggs
cooked
over
medium
on
ham.
The
hollandaise
sauce
was
nothing
to
write
home
about
as
well
as
the
side
of
hash
browns.
She
said
it
was
good,
but
wouldn't
order
it
again.
My
sister-in-law
had
the
Veggie
Omelet
($13.75)
that
had
sauteed
onions,
green
peppers,
mushrooms,
tomatoes
&
cheddar
cheese.
She
said
it
was
perfectly
cooked,
palatable
but
it
lacked
seasoning.
I
wasn't
that
hungry
that
morning
so
I
ordered
the
Tater
Tot
Nachos
($9.25).
My
mistake...There
was
a
lot
to
be
had
with
nicely
cooked
bacon
bits,
melted
cheese
with
some
diced
tomatoes
topped
off
with
sour
cream.
It
was
quite
good
with
some
nice
seasoning.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
They
boast
about
being
the
"best
home
cooked
food..."
So
I
thought
I'd
give
it
another
try.
The
second
time
I
ordered
their
Rueben
Sandwich
($13.65)
in
celebration
of
upcoming
St.
Patrick's
Day.
I
will
say
that
the
flavors
were
really
good...However,
the
corned
beef
looked
like
it
was
minced,
it
came
in
small
bits
held
together
by
the
dressing.
Now
I
don't
know
about
how
the
public
feels
about
this,
but
I'm
used
to
slices
of
corned
beef
in
my
Rueben,
if
I
wanted
hash
I
would
have
ordered
it.
That
and
there
was
more
rye
bread
to
corned
beef
ratio.
The
coleslaw
was
drowned
out
by
the
mayonnaise
dressing
which
overpowered
the
slaw
making
it
soggy.
I
actually
prefer
the
crisp
vinaigrette
dressing
which
unfortunately
they
don't
offer.
Once
again
I
was
disappointed
with
the
meal.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Third
and
last
time...
I
ordered
take
out...
I
ordered
the
Cajun
Breakfast
($14.00).
It
had
a
good
mixture
of
bell
peppers,
onions,
mushrooms
and
melted
cheese
topped
off
with
lots
of
Hollandaise
sauce
and
the
eggs
were
cooked
to
order...
However,
it
severely
lacked
in
the
delicious
spicy
Cajun
seasoning
that
I
was
looking
forward
to.
If
they're
trying
to
compete
with
the
truly
"home
town"
cafe
in
Shakopee
they
are
coming
up
short.
My
other
item
was
the
Veggie
Falafel...
Unfortunately
they
were
dry
and
over
cooked.
I've
have
falafel
before
which
were
great.
But,
like
I
said...these
were
bone
dry
and
over
fried.
I
wish
I
had
better
things
to
say
however
I
don't.
I
don't
plan
on
going
back.
