What People Are Saying

Overall Experience

The restaurant provides a fairly standard diner experience, with many finding it acceptable, but some feeling it doesn't quite live up to expectations. Customer experiences vary from exceeding expectations to being somewhat underwhelming.

Customer Favorites

Chicken finger baskets, especially with honey mustard sauce, are a highlight for some customers. The "big breakfast" with scrambled eggs, bacon, hash browns, and pancakes is also a popular choice.

Atmosphere & Service

The restaurant offers a classic, old-school diner feel with a homely atmosphere. Staff are generally described as friendly and helpful, though occasionally busy and possibly understaffed during peak times.

Value & Quality

Food quality is described as generally good but not great, with some dishes being described as bland or lacking bold flavors. The menu is extensive and there is a decent amount of parking available.

Areas for Improvement

Some customers suggest the migas blanco could use more spice and bolder Mexican flavors, and that the Hollandaise sauce in the Avalon Benedict could be richer and more flavorful. Hashbrowns being undercooked and cold was also mentioned.

Recent Trends

More recent reviews emphasize the consistently "good, not great" nature of the food, pointing to a reliable, standard experience. A recent review mentions the big breakfast.
