Used to love this place but very disappointed today with tough liver and livestock caliber corn. Could not eat either. Soup was good. Mentioned to waitress and she said it was just overcooked. No adjustment to the bill offered. read more

I usually eat here when I come home to visit. I thought my folks still ate here but when I told them about my experience, they informed me they now go to Riverview. I ordered an 11 oz steak ($11.75). I then get a nice Midwestern portion (I should have known it was like 16oz) but the steak did smell non-fresh and was totally bland, not seasoned. Then I get the bill for $28. The waitress thought I asked for skirt steak (which is ridiculously overpriced for the food quality, plus they serve corn as a vegetable). They adjusted the bill after I pleaded my case when I specified that I requested 11 oz during my order. The co-owner (Greek guy) was "customer friendly" but I could read inside he wasn't too happy, commenting "There's a big difference between skirt steak and chopped steak" as one last utterance before we settled. I reminded him that when a customer points to size/quantity, that's the deal. We are not experts of their dish names. However I still offered to pay for their unilateral mistake to save family face, and considering we have given them several thousand dollars in biz over the last 25yrs. Sorry to say, this course of dealing has come to a close. Best of luck read more

We used to frequent this restaurant and it was always okay. Not gourmet, but okay for a family style restaurant. More recently health issues and surgeries have kept us away. Today we returned to quite a different place. While the staff was still friendly the food no longer tasted home cooked but instead was likely frozen, processed, ready made food. Not very good. Also the prices are much, much higher than they were. I had a cubed beef sand which, onion rings, and chocolate milk. My man had a waffle with ham and an iced tea. The bill was a whopping $28.00!!! We can eat at a much nicer restaurant for this amount of money. We will not be back. read more

Food is ok nothing to write home about. They do have decent size portions for their over inflated prices. Breakfast was on the table fast. Their eggs taste like they are powered. I've had their ice cream sundaes for dessert was very large and well worth the price. Would go back a burger if I had a coupon. Place is clean and waitstaff is friendly. read more

When shopping out in this area, I was delighted to spot this diner and was thrilled when we didn't have to settle for fast food. However, that feeling was short lived when I realized that I would have been better off at the Dairy Queen down the street. The waitress was just about as unclassy as a waitress could be. I am not one to judge on someone's personal appearance, but she was walking around with her shirt dirty and untucked, had filthy hands and nails, and was missing most of her teeth. She also made several passes at my husband and called me "honey" one too many times. But even if I saw beyond all of that....the food also left a lot to be desired. The bread that was given to us was stale, but I crunched on it as I looked over the menu. I don't know what it was that I wanted, but I didn't find it on the menu. The thing I love about going to a diner is that they pretty much have anything you could want. My husband wanted to order a pot roast special they were advertising on the menu, but they were out of it. I settled for a steak sandwich with a Greek salad to start. The salad was actually very good and if I ever found myself forced to eat here again, this is what I would order . I think they make all of their salad dressings homemade. Then my sandwich came out and it was covered in cheese, onions and peppers. They didn't offer just a plain steak sandwich, probably because they want to try and hide the fact that they use the crappiest cuts of meat that they can find. The sandwich was just okay and whatever the rest of my family ordered was about the same. The bill on the other hand, for three of us to eat dinner was close to $50. I couldn't believe we had wasted that kind of money on this extremely mediocre dinner. Next time we are having fast food. read more

This is a true restaurant with pictures of the food in the menu! The food is great, the service is friendly and prompt and you will enjoy your meal or they'll fix whatever is wrong immediately. Stop by. You won't be disappointed. I'm thrilled we live nearby read more

We had a party in their back room and we were so disappointed about the service we received for our party of 40+ people. I was told I had to give a final count a couple days before the party so I did. But that didn't matter when we got there, the server spent 20-30 something minutes taking drink orders. After she finished taking orders she started counting the number of people so she could place the food order. Our brunch was supposed to be for 11:30, we did't get to eat until closer to 1pm. We only had one server for the party, they said we would have two servers. There's only one restroom in the back and had no paper towels. I asked for towels and they never came. My uncle started helping the server getting food from the kitchen and drinks. I also had to get water for tables. At the end I was charged for an unexpected $100 worth of drinks that were not included in the buffet as the server gave the option when she was taking drink orders. The manager or owner didn't say anything after I told him everything that happened. A simple I'm sorry that happened can go a long way. Sad to say they will not get my business even for just a breakfast ever again. read more

Good food, good service, reasonable prices. The Eggs Florentine was the best I have had around here. This was my first but definitely not last visit. read more

I was there yesterday food and service is poor again $45.00 dollars for bad food . Last time I ever go there . Food no taste OVERPRICE FOR POOR QUALITY !!!!!! read more

Have been coming here a number of years as there weren't a lot options a few years ago in Oswego. Normal 200-300 diner menu options. LOL Food is always good, prices very reasonable and most dishes are huge portions for those with a big appetite. Couple long time waitresses always greet us and razz my son a little. They literally have watched him grow up. Pete always stops by the table to say if he didn't seat us. Community involvement by hosting monthly breakfast for Veterans presided over by Hershel, who also is involved with Honor Flight Chicago. Although relatively short wait times, packed for breakfast so expect a wait on weekends. Enjoy! read more

This is a nice place to have a good meal. Breakfast is great, and everyone is friendly. You see a lot of the regulars there, and it just has that small town feel to it. read more

One of the best sit down, relax and eat restaurants around. Always friend services, making sure you are set with your food, drinks and whatever else you might need. Great food especially their breakfast. This a must stop place just eat with your family! read more

Great food and pleasant service. Never disappointed and I visit here a couple times a month.

One of our favorite restaurants. Not fancy, but comfortable. Pete and the rest of the staff are always helpful and enjoyable to do business with. I rarely ever have to ask for my coffee to be refilled, but they don't hover over us either. The menu is to big, causing quite a bit of indecision as to what I really want and having to choose. I've gotten down to giving the waitress two or three choices and telling her to bring one. I usually go with a breakfast, but their liver and onions is a real treat also. My wife and daughter usually will split a meal because it is more than one of them can eat. Even then they often have to request a box. read more

I went in there a couple of weeks ago, and ordered the beef vegetable soup and it was fantastic. When I was leaving they told me that they made homemade soup every day. Today I had the navybean soup... also excellent. They have a different flavor every day, and you can buy it to go by the quart, and they give you bread, butter and crackers with it... so it is a complete meal, for $6... I love this place. read more

Between the impeccable service from the ownership meeting you at the front door to the experienced waitress's always getting it right no matter how you add or change your order it is our favorite place to go for breakfast! read more

Food is great. Montgomery and oswego have no real food options! I would choose this place over the garbage in the area.

I LOVE THIS PLACE been going here for years! The owner Pete is wonderful and really takes care of his guest and treats them like Family. The staff is awesome! read more
