Experienced this gem one evening for dinner with a number of colleagues after a long day's work. Recommended by a local, we were able to enjoy the warmth of the restaurant decor, extremely friendly staff and huge portions for a very fair price. I enjoyed the Chicken Napolitano with Mashed Potatoes and a salad. Their side salads that accompanied the entrees are HUGE and fresh. Generous amount of chicken, mushrooms and red peppers. Very good overall although I would have liked a little more garlic flavor. Don't forget the desserts - their cakes are enormous (slices have to be every bit of 8 inches tall) and fantastic. I had the carrot cake - moist with a sweet icing. Plenty of parking, no wait and easy to hold a conversation.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

I was very excited about trying this diner after reading all the rave reviews but our experience was just ok. The welcome at the door was great but unfortunately our server was inattentive and absent after delivering the food. We found the roast beef club to be extremely dry and it was served with cold French fries. The skillet was ok. The French toast was excellent. We didn’t get the drink we ordered - although we were asked if we wanted it replaced with the correct one. They were extremely busy and maybe that had something to do with it. But our experience today did not leave me wanting to go back.

My Pittsburgh friends invited me to brunch. This restaurant is a gem. The server was fantastic. The food was large proportions and delicious. The atmosphere was wonderful. I never even had to ask for a refill on my tea. I can not wait to bring my husband here
