    Great breakfast spot. Make your own omelette are filling and the side of home fries are delicious. Be patient on weekend because is a busy spot and be hungry because the plates are big.

    Free easy street parking
    Not busy on a weekday at noon
    Very friendly staff
    They accept debit/credit (no Discover or American Express)
    Great veggie options such as the Creole omelet and Vegetarian Breakfast
    Fairly-priced (under $20 for two people)

    I got scrambled eggs with home fries and toast- the eggs were a little dry and the potatoes were a bit bland, but the portion was very large.

    He got the turkey club and it was huge! He ate it over two meals. He was also able to choose fries instead of chips for no upcharge.

    The food wasn't amazing, but the service was great which is deserving of four stars in my opinion.

    Trash. Do not order the steak. It was so thin I thought it was going to blow away every time the door opened.

    Great place! Ordered Irish eggs Benedict with corned beef hash.
    Order came out quick and delicious!

    What a cute little spot!  Was visiting family and needed a warm breakfast on a surprisingly chilly rainy April day.  Chose this place over dunkin and was pleasantly surprised.  The waitress for the whole place was absolutely lovely and very attentive.  Loved the classic decor (black and white tile floors, marilyn monroe artwork, and intricate ceiling tiles).  Coffee was delicious and the food was comforting.  I ordered one of eggs benedict with mushrooms and asparagus- it was good, although I think the asparagus was canned (next time I'd stick to spinach & tomatoe.)  My fiancé ordered a traditional shmorgishborg and enjoyed it all.  Large portions for the right price.  Their lunch specials seemed reasonable too.  Street parking was a little tough in this part of Arlington but we managed.  Glad we found this place and supported a local business.
