What our guests are saying
Nice diner. Love up to my expectations. Coming from Westchester it compares to raceway diner and mount Olympus in Yonkers 👍👍

There is nothing I miss more about Monroe than this diner. I grew up up the road and this place was always a source of comfort and a problem solver for when we didn’t know what to make. This place is the bar I judge ever other diner on and no one’s compared yet.

My BIL and I stopped for lunch on way back from Catskills Sunday, seated right away, and given menus. Nice extensive diner menu. Waiter very pleasant and immediately brought sodas we asked for and gave us a few minutes to decide. As soon as he realized we were ready he took orders. Selections cooked up fresh and served hot. Very satisfied. We could see another family enjoying their Sunday meal and said they enjoyed it also.
