DDDfanfromBuffaloShared publicly - February 17, 2013 (7 years ago) Stopped in on Friday around 10:30a.m. Once we found a spot to sit we were greeted with a complimentary plate of freshly baked danishes which were delicious and still a bit warm. I ordered the Western omelet with hash browns and rye toast. I was also able to have a taste of the biscuits & gravy, which a full serving of is huge! All of the food was very good and the portions were abundant. The fact that the bread, biscuits, etc are freshly baked on premises really made the difference. Staff was running around like you'd expect at a busy diner, but were still friendly & attentive. I would definitely visit again!

We were served complimentary cinnamon rolls right out of the oven...amazing! I ordered the lamb shank, and it was Fred Flintsone sized...it lasted for 2 meals. The meat was so tender that it fell right off the bone. The mashed potatoes were the real deal and the gravy was great! The homemade rolls were great for sopping up some gravy. My husband got the sweedish meatballs and egg noodles and said they were the best meatballs he had ever had. The waitress was super friendly and happy to tell us stories of when Guy was there as well as a former regular, Davy Jones (RIP). It was a great meal and a great time! So glad we went!

Burgers were good, bread that the BLT was on was very stale. Clerk at bakery counter begged my husband to try a creme horn and it did look amazing...but thats as much as I can say. No flavor, I think they forgot the sweetner in the filling.
