    Excellent NY style with mountains of pastrami on the sandwich. Big enough to share. Good enough to just stuff yourself.

    Excellent value for money. Extensive menu. Great service. Victoria was our waitress. She was great. She told us about the happy hour specials which we truly appreciated. Lentil soup is amazing. The goat cheese salad great too.

    The food, service and management of the large amount of customers was excellent. Food is very good and portion sizes very large. We tried the 24 layer cake, 3/4 of which we took home, and it was amazing!! Our waitress was very sweet, got everything right, and was very helpful. More than a great Diner.

    Yummy food, great energy in the environment of the restaurant. Had to wait, but we got seated shortly after. Just a vibe really we loved it. Will be going back for another trip.
