    French toast and bacon
    Randy D.

    Stopped in for dinner after a day of flying and increasing hunger. Pretty cool inside, like a 50s diner. Were seated quickly and looked over the large menu I ordered the pierogis for an appetizer settled on black diamond steak and eggs for dinner. My wife had the French toast with bacon. Pierogi were really good, stuffed with potato and cheese. Black diamond steak was flavorful and cooked perfectly. Eggs were cooked perfectly, always amazed how many places can't make a sunny side up egg. Was really good food French toast was really good as well. Wife loved it. We got 2 muffins and a slice of apple pie to go, as we were stuffed after dinner. Coffee was really good, much better than we expected. Muffins were awesome, and super large. Apple pie was yummy as well. Service was great and friendly.

    My food came out cold!!! The service and clean atmosphere is all that this place has going for it. I dont recommend this to anyone

    Philly cheese steak (ground beef) wrap.   Uh
    WC R.

    If not for the great service, clean restrooms, and nice looking facilities my meal was a single star. Avoid the Philly Cheese steak wrap at all costs. As terrible in taste as is was unappealing on the plate I'd recommend it come off the menu immediately. It's ground beef in a terrible sauce on a smoking hot wrap (yet cool ground beef inside). It was inedible. If you have a shellfish allergy- everything is cooked with the shrimp - shrimp fries, yum.

    Waitstaff was very good. The bathroom was clean. The menu has LOTs of choices. The food was bland but salt helped. Prices fair.

    Crab and asparagus breakfast casserole
    Maria D.

    Coming back from a trip to Jim Thorpe we totally forgot it was Easter, we had skipped breakfast and were hungry. We stopped at Jake's flea market thinking we could get something there but nothing tickled our fancy. Thankfully a vendor recommended the Americana . We arrived to them not only being open but also with no wait. You can't miss the place. The exterior is all glass and mirrors and has that vintage diner feel. An old turquoise Chevy sat out front - not sure if it was the owner's or another patron's but it's placement felt intentional. The inside was bright and clean and felt like it had Greek ties. The bathrooms appeared to be recently remodeled as the decor was more modern than the rest of the establishment and exceptionally clean. Probably one of the cleanest restaurant rest rooms I've been in. It was only around 11am and although they had some Easter specials they weren't serving them yet and we were presented with a breakfast menu. There were plenty of items to choose from, including several featuring crab. The crab/asparagus/egg breakfast casserole caught my eye and I inquired if they use real crab (IT WAS!). Our server had to confirm as she didn't know. I ordered that and hubby a meat lovers breakfast casserole. Both were in the $8.50 range and included hash-browns in the dish and toast. The wait for our food felt long but they were busy. Our waitress was very attentive and had a good sense of humor. She even went with the flow and engaged in my husband's comical antics and her laugh seemed genuine. We really liked her. Our dishes were served piping hot in a large crock. I loved mine, even the hollandaise sauce which I had them put to the side because normally I don't care for it. Hubby ate his with vigor than eyed up the bit I saved to take home. On our way out he got a piece of coffee cake (it was massive and only $2.70!) The hostess station seemed a little unorganized. Two hostesses rotated between seating and checking people out. One was definitely better at her job than the other, who didn't know prices and appeared to not know how to run the register. Her inabilities held up the line and myself and other patrons were getting frustrated in the process. Otherwise awesome food, good prices, and a wonderful server, one of the best.

    UPDATE! This place was five stars when I originally wrote my review, but after today's Thanksgiving…read morebuffet, I would give it 2 stars at best. We arrived at one of their last seatings, everything was pretty much gone at that point. You could not help yourself to the turkey , there was someone giving it to you and he gave the skimpiest portions. They were literally like turkey medallions. He had zero personality, I think if he smiled, his face would crack . When I went back for a second helping, it was nothing but dark meat and fat , I don't eat any other meat so I had to fill up on sides. $34.95 a person for what? Iced tea was an extra $2.99 , really? Even the chocolate cake was so dry that it tasted like it was old . Then you weren't allowed to select the tip they already applied 20% on there, all she did was give us one drink and take about two plates away. $91 later and we were extremely disappointed. This place has really gone downhill and we will not return!

    4/24/26 order - completely underwhelming - DO NOT RECOMMEND…read morelobster bisque - eh - subpar crab and spinach dip - so much grease that is all it tasted like and the homemade chips they gave - more like pitas and hard as a rock broiled salmon meal - forgot my salad but gave me the dressing - salmon was not broiled but seemed pan fried, hard, dry and burnt with a butter/oil taste - inedible Side of mac and cheese - the only thing that was actually decent chicken parm meal - forgot my salad but gave me the dressing as well - also inedible the sauce tasted like a tin can I will never order food from here again - the worst !

    A friend and I decided to stop here for lunch. And we were not disappointed! Soup of the day was a…read morebaked potato which was as creamy as silk. Ate the whole thing. Then we got wings. So many flavors to choose from. I got the sweet and spicy Thai flavor and it was worth it. The bartender was also our server since we sat at the bar. I asked her about Garage beer and she gave me a small glass of it. YUM! Had that to top off a good ole American lunch. Very quaint and they have food for everyone. From vegan to meat eaters and everything in between including kids. (Dining area set apart from bar so kids aren't in the bar area). Definitely a place you should try!

The bread component was extremely soggy & non existent. Overall the soup desperately needs help. *Bleu Cheese: straight outta the Restaurant Store and unremarkable. These wings are sensational, and an elevated bleu cheese would have taken them to new heights! The cook on the wings was exquisite! New place for us now for great wings! Great craft beer selection, if that's your thing. I was happy to find Garage Beer Lime ‍ on tap. The staff was sensational. I am already looking forward to my next trip, but Im gonna bring my own bleu cheese. #rushieeats

    This place was BUSY on a Saturday night (a good thing for a restaurant and a good sign for those…read morecoming in for the first time)... we didn't have a reservation, having planned to late, but they do keep tables open for walk-ins and despite being told it was an hour wait (whatever, we knew we ran that risk), we were seated in 15 minutes - Luck, maybe? But awesome all the same! For how busy they were, the server was very attentive and very accommodating as we were yapping away and constantly not ready with our orders so kuddos for the team and putting up with us! I love the mystery beer concept, its not great beer, but being from DC at like $2 a can, I am not passing that up, ever. And a cheap beer with a burger is the perfect combo! On to the burger... I have heard that this is a great burger... and I have to conclude that I agree though it is reminiscent of a Big Mac - just way better ingredients - it has to be the sauce they put on it... Anyway, nice size patty, good amount of toppings and a quality bun (not too soft, not too thick, bread soaks up some of the juices but doesn't fall apart). The mussels were quite excellent as well. It was a Thai curry broth the night we were there and it was drinkable, like soup... we did ask for extra bread... enough said. I am going to take a minute too and praise their spirit free cocktails. THIS IS HOW THEY SHOULD BE MADE. They used bitters, tonics, etc to craft something that tasted like a cocktail but without alcohol which means they were not sickly sugary concoctions, but expertly crafted beverages. Just really great options. All that said though, their espresso martini was one of the worst I have had. Just skip that.

Quality was on point and the prices were really reasonable. Staff was working hard, but still really friendly and efficient. Definitely a must try! Check out the cheese curds with honey, tarragon, and macadamia nuts for a crunchy and unique dish. They paired beautifully with the house made pickles.

    We sat outside in what they call the "garden room." The ambience and lighting were cozy and…read morepleasant, and it was comfortably warm despite the 30°F temperature. Unfortunately, there was a strong cold draft at floor level, leaving our feet uncomfortably cold throughout the meal. The hostess was sweet and greeted us with a smile. The food service was unremarkable. Our waiter was not particularly friendly nor personable. The drinks were a weak start. The red sangria was poor. The bourbon cocktail was an odd mix of bourbon, apple cider, and other elements--an awkward, Frankenstein-style whiskey sour that simply didn't work. Worst of all, both drinks were served in thin plastic cups, which immediately cheapened the entire experience. I ordered the falafel sandwich and specifically requested a toasted bun. It arrived not just room temperature, but cold. I sent it back, and it returned burning hot... the bottom soggy... literally too hot to pick up... with no browning or color change, clearly microwaved. Microwaving is not toasting. At that point, the sandwich was inedible. I removed the bun entirely and ate just the falafel, which was dry and largely tasteless. At this point I knew coming back to this restaurant was a mistake. Food timing was another issue. The dishes took roughly 45 minutes to arrive after the drinks, possibly longer. We were all getting annoyed and what started out well when we first walked in turned negative. I wasn't impressed on my first visit years ago... and this second visit confirmed it. Between the poor drinks, cheap plastic cups, ridiculously long wait (with no explanation nor apology), and careless food execution, there's no reason to return.
