For my son's birthday, we usually go to 3 different restaurants. My son and I Have been looking…read morefor a good diner. My son found this restaurant via an internet search. The first thing that increased my appetite was the aroma. Our waitress, Rachel, was very friendly and advised us that the cook made outstanding pasta dishes. I ordered a veal dish that was outstanding-fresh vegetables, quality veal and my son's pasta with sausage was great. We had the daily soups with our meals-chicken noodle and stuffed pepper both were outstanding-fresh vegetables, chicken, and the stuffed pepper soup tasted like a stuffed pepper. Outstanding service by Rachel, outstanding homemade food with fresh vegetables and quality meats. We ordered two entrees for home the broasted chicken and veal franchise (excellent)\. Finally, the prices of all meals are reasonable. We will be going again!!!!!!!! I highly recommend--give this place a visit.

What I saw made me loss my appetite- *cook would text, and then handle precooked and cooked food without washing hands or even wiping off hands. *also would rub face and then go back to handing food that was being platted up *not once did I see him wash his hands. Closest to cleaning hands was wiping hands on sides of dirty apron. Which only would happen from time to time. Really disappointing to see a lack of hygiene with the items coming off of the griddle top.

Everything was clean and tidy even though it was on the tail end of breakfast service. There were several other people in the place too. Service was welcoming and personable. After a short wait, the waitress took my order and poured the coffee. The coffee was good and bold. A great diner style pick me up. Originally I was going to order some hash (excellent in the past) but opted for the biscuits and gravy special. Definitely a good move. As I waited for my food I was able to watch the kitchen do their thing. Good, lively crew. Any banter was professional and friendly. Also did a great job on the flat top. The portion size for the meal was great and the meal was delicious. The biscuits had some good flakiness and were not soggy at all. The creamy gravy had plenty of chunky sausage bites and had ample black pepper to tame the richness. The home fries were also a hit. They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The seasoning was also very good. The potatoes had a great paprika hint that lended just enough spice to cut through the richness of the gravy even more. For eggs, I chose over easy. They were cooked perfectly. Yokes were perfect and they had some crispiness on the edges that provided good textural contrast. The place was clean. I didn't have an opportunity to use the rest room but it had always been clean in the past. Overall, this was a great visit. For the delicious food and friendly staff I will definitely be back!

The food was typical diner quality; based on the reviews I expected to be wowed, and I wasn't. (When we asked our waitress what she recommends she actually told us that the hash comes out of a can...) But my biggest beef with this place is that they don't serve real maple syrup. At all. How does a breakfast place--in New England--not even *offer* real maple syrup?!

Small diner with retro vibes. We were a little bit weary in the beginning it being our first time,…read morebut the staff was super friendly towards us. When you get to your table, there's a local newspaper there detailing all the goings on at Ludlow which I thought was a nice touch. They have daily specials written on a whiteboard and I ended up going with the Blueberry loaf French toast. It tasted amazing. Ordered coffee which was that New England blend that everyone here seems to love which.. is understandable but I'm personally not a big fan of but, ok, I drank it anyway. I was most surprised by how much mom loved her veggie omelette breakfast. She's the one in our family whose very much a picky eater and she devoured hers. The waitress had brought over a hot sauce that she says the owner makes himself and I have to admit it was pretty good!. Another person in our party had the breakfast sandwich special that comes with home fries for 6.99 and in this economy, that's a deal, huge portions (see pic) During my time here I also heard that their rye bread comes from the local Portuguese bakery. I don't know that they could've done anything else to make our time there better. It really was a 5 star experience for us. Hope it will be that way for you as well.

Two stars- one for the outstanding service and one because, well, the food was edible…read more The service was top-notch from the moment we walked in until we left. Our server and other staff were friendly, attentive, and easily the highlight of our visit. Unfortunately, the food was edible at best. The Crabby Benedict had very little crab flavor and over-poached eggs, while the Supreme Veggie Omelette was filled with soggy, overcooked vegetables. The home fries were greasy and everything lacked seasoning that even ketchup and hot sauce couldn't save. The restaurant was bustling and our food took over 20 minutes, but our server was apologetic and checked on us often. The décor and entrance could was tired and the prices felt far too high for the quality of the food. We finished our meals, but unfortunately, we won't return.
