    Delicious fluffy pancakes, seasoned egg whites, & spicy beef sausage. I forgot to take a picture before I started, but it was so good!
    Sachi G.

    Definitely a 10/10! I would eat this everyday if I could. The pancakes are amazing! The egg whites were perfectly cooked and seasoned. The spicy beef sausage was a nice surprise. Worth the price and worth a visit! Service is always good, thank you Leon! :) This places feels nostalgic.

    Amazing experience in a hidden gem of Deanwood! The cook was authentic and you watched him grill you order - our waitress is just the friendly face you want to talk to behind the corner and I think it was Mary! get out of homogeneous arlington and support your community and small business owners!

    Perfectly cooked eggs over medium with corned beef hash. And those grits!! Yum!

    Believe the positive reviews and ignore the dubious exterior. This place is legit. Been there for 50 years (!) and serving a solid diner style breakfast. They do not accept credit cards - so that's something to note as there's nary an ATM closeby. It's so much better than any options in the area and they are super nice and friendly as well! I'll definitely be back - I'd love to try their smothered pork chop special!

    A group of friends and I went to the Deanwood area for a fun day of exploration, complete without doing any research or Yelping before we arrived. After departing the Deanwood Metro we walked across the street to the Community Center where we were given the recommendation of Mary's Place, and there we went! Location - This place is missable if you don't know where you are going. If you are near the highway, you're almost there since this restaurant runs parallel. Food - Breakfast diner food. Get a country fried steak with potatoes for ~$7, or french toast with eggs and sausage ~$9. Other items include pancakes, cheeseburgers and other sandwiches, corn bread, and beans & rice. CA$H ONLY!!! Space - Sit up at the counter or there are two small tables that may fit four people squished. Not too big but it does the job. You can tell it's a local place, which only adds to its charm! If that doesn't do it, you'll get a joy reading the words of wisdom on the walls or looking at the photos inside. Staff - Susie and the team are great, friendly, and quick with the food! The grill is right in front of the counter and you can see them whipping up the food like ninjas. Overall, awesome local Deanwood experience for all to witness and enjoy. As Susie says, "woo hoooo!"

    Here from the West Coast for a wedding. Stumbled upon this place. Was first a little apprehensive. Will there was no reason for it. The breakfast was odd the chart delish. Felt right at home with the regulars. Will be back before we leave.

    Talk about bad food. This place use to be good several years…read moreago but those days are long gone. A completely different look on the inside. Gone are the blue walls and no more of the carry out feel. I remember this place had some of best bacon but you can tell the quality of food has gone out the window. I walked in and was greeted by a guy taking orders. His customer service skills were good. That was the only reason for the 2 stars. I ordered the wings and waffle, Belgian waffle and breakfast platter along with 2 drinks for $42 bucks. Not too bad. We sat at a table and the food came. Once again, the guy at the counter was great. He made sure to bring over our waffles while they were hot. That was the only part of the food that was good/decent, hence the second star. The rest is poor quality and belongs in the trash. The eggs were not real and god awful. The 8 wingettes came straight out of a freezer bag/ air fryer. TRASH. The bacon was fresh out of the microwave. I'll never ever come back. The food is that bad. If there was anyone standing outside needing food I would have happily given it to them. This place has fallen off a cliff hence the empty parking lot. It is a hard no for me.

The parking lot was packed! We walked in and shared a table with another family that was waiting. You have to order your food at the counter and wait. We decided to eat in. We ordered an omelet with hash browns, cheesy grits, 3 ordered of pancakes, 2 eggs with 4 orders of bacon. I was pleasantly surprised. Everyone enjoyed their food from the pregnant mom to the picky toddler. My husband said the omelette was nice and fluffy and filled well. With drinks, this ran us about $68. I will be returning.

I called to order pickup, and the service was nice and friendly. Also, the spot is very reliable, as it's open until midnight and roughly 16 hours of the day, serving many different options, from fast food to comfort food. I ordered the combo over rice ($13), the Philly cheesesteak combo with French fries and lemonade ($15.49), five wings with one waffle ($13.49), and a carrot cake slice ($4). - The fried chicken wings were alright for your typical fast food chicken. - Waffle was decent: it was soft & fluffy. - The combo over rice was solid, and I liked the chicken the most. - Philly cheesesteak was okay and would've been even better if it had provolone instead of the cheese whiz. - French fries were solid: they were crispy with some seasoning on them. - The house-made lemonade was alright, and I would be open to getting it again. - The carrot cake isn't anything crazy, it's alright, but I do appreciate the $4 price tag cause others would charge double or more for a slice. Overall, the spot does a good job with fair pricing, fast comfort food, and reliable hours. I'd come back and recommend.

    A fine establishment! This modest family owned restaurant 'on the hill' is a diamond in the rough!…read moreWe came as a family of five adults for breakfast. We all found traditional diner breakfasts as well as many dishes with a Latin taste and ingredients. I had their big egg sandwich with ham and bacon on a bagel. The sandwich's taste excelled despite the plain Jane bagel. Otherwise one family member had the eggs Benedict with ham rated very good. The hollandaise was just right. All eggs were cooked as ordered, bacon crispy but not too well done. Sweet ice tea was great! Everything was fresh, tasty and satisfying! The service was also attentive and friendly.

Luckily I'm very familiar with the area and know that the entrance is beside the Exxon, up and winding driveway and sits on top of the hill. There's a small Wyndham hotel next to it, so if you look up and see the Wyndham signage, you're in the right spot! I've never dined at this spot and it's been here for YEARS! I believe it started off as a Howard Johnson's many moons ago, but don't quote me on that..LOL. The restaurant itself is really nothing to look at. It's seems more like a diner than a restaurant but it's surprisingly large, just a little outdated. I sat at the rather small bar since I was there for HH. The bartender was extremely pleasant and attentive. I ordered the wings and bacon wrapped dates that were on the HH menu and I also ordered the calamari which was on the regular menu. I must say, the calamari and bacon wrapped dates tastes as good as any I've ever had! The wings were very good as well. The HH priced margarita was extremely good and $4 off the regular price! I will definitely be back when I want to grab something good and lowkey. Oh yeah, there's a Mexican food vibe which surprised me. I was served complimentary chips and salsa, and the menu had several Mexican cuisine offerings. Because of this, they may want to consider a name change.. Lol!
