Good for breakfast.....steer clear of dinner

We spied this place after passing it on the bus while on route to the Popover Cafe for breakfast. I have to say, EJ's french toast was truly satisfying....and the ambience made it an interesting visit...along with the kid friendly menu. So, with that in mind, we tried it for dinner...though I should've gone with my gut instinct not to. Note: always go with your gut instinct...especially in matters of food. The steak was tough (yeah, I know who orders a steak at a diner?), and the chicken parmesan on a bed of fettucine was bland.....and they didn't even have parmesan cheese! The bill was pretty steep, and turned out to be a mistake on the waiters part, which was corrected by the manager on staff. In a nutshell, you gotta try everything at least once....which was once too many for me.

Pros: Good for breakfast

Cons: Overpriced for dinner
