Throw the diet out the window and enjoy this nostalgic diner fare.

Inside, red vinyl booths, an authentic soda fountain and vintage memorabilia captures the essence of the Happy Days generation. The blue plate specials include chicken-fried steak served with mashed potatoes and Texas toast. Thin-sliced onion...

I live in the neighborhood, so I tend to show up here at random times during the night and the food is always great (especially for diner food).

Was referred to this place while I was out here. Came in with 6 other people and we waited 20 min and still didn't get any service. Servers walked by numerous times and didn't even take a second to check up on us to see If we needed anything. Very disappointed in it so we just went to whataburger instead.

Casual Dining

This retro diner features a chrome interior and uniformed "soda jerks." The menu features great comfort food selections and there is an authentic soda fountain serving sundaes, root beer floats, thick malts, and banana splits.

The 1950s small-town Americana theme in this establishment pushes the nostalgia button. Sitting in a candy-apple red booth, you can order for the blue-plate special and then kick back and listen to '50s tunes on the jukebox while you wait for it to arrive. This is a great spot for families and friends to enjoy a traditional American meal. No matter what you order, top it off with a delicious,...
