This is a family style diner that's open from 6am til 9pm. They have breakfast items all hours, and that's what I tend to stick with when here. They have a large menu and offer other typical dishes like skillets, philly cheese steak sandwiches, burgers, pork chops, pastas, etc. You can get an meat omelette (I had turkey) with hash browns and 2 slices of french toast for $5.49. Great value and nice place to have around in the area.

I had a bad experience at this restaurant today with a waitress, she gave me a styrofoam cup with an added touch of sassy-ness because i brought in a dunkin donuts coffee. She says "can you pour your coffee in here" i ask "why?" to which she responds "because we have coffee here" how rude and annoying, if this is how your servers are going to treat customers i do not want to come here again.

Here is another family style restaurant in the southlands of Chicago bordering into Northwest Indiana. They have a wide range of food to choose from and prices are very reasonable (I paid under $10 for an omelette and coffee plus my choice of french toast, pancakes, or toast). Definitely something for everyone and the service is nice and fast (it was busy when I was there around 12:30pm and yet I had my food within 10 minutes of ordering). For those not familiar with the area, there is only on-street parking around the restaurant.

Really quick service for breakfast on a busy Sunday morning. Inexpensive & and good diner style food. The decor makes you feel as though you've stepped back in time :p. I will definately be back for lunch or dinner.

Greasy food, smoky/stuffy/dated atmosphere, old waitresses with attitudes. Sorry..there's just not much to like here.

This place is awesome! The staff is very friendly, the service was fast, and the food was great. Its exactly what you expect from a small town diner. Also there is no smoking in here, so I'm unsure of why the previous reviewer made the comment about second hand smoke. I almost didn't try this place because of that and it would have been a shame.

When I die, you'd best believe it won't be from second hand smoke.

Comfortable little place in downtown Whiting. Not many other little diners around this area where you can go in and get a good breakfast (in Whiting that is), so this place is a great necessity. Pretty much anything you get will be as you expect it as they cook up old school favorites in the same way they've been presented for many years.

We go here often, cook knows what he's doing. He seen us there often so decided to give us some free grilled jalapenos. Steak is always cooked perfectly

Absolutely GRRRREAT place for breakfast all day. The rest of the menu is equally tantalizing. Friendly service. Down home atmosphere.

My daughter had the hot dog kids meal, I had the roast beef open faced sandwich. She wouldn't take a second bite from the hot dog because it was the nastiest hot dog she has ever tasted, and I tried it and agreed. My roast beef had barely any flavor, as was the mashed potatoes and gravy. The only redeeming part of the meal was the chicken and rice soup, which was pretty good. The service was bad, as when we walked in the sign said that a host will seat you, but he just handed us some menus and said to sit wherever you wanted. The wait staff was slow, taking about 5 minutes to wait for check after asking for it, despite it being very slow at the time. We did have 2 meals for under $15.00, so maybe we did get what we paid for. Still, I used to eat here all the time and always got a good meal for that price. They must have really skimmed their menu budget, because it was the worst meal we've had out all year. One plus, though, was the waitresses were rather cute, so I did leave her a $5.00 tip, anyway.
