    Pancakes, scrambled eggs, and sausage.
    Les D.

    Spacious classic diner that is waxing into the "dive" stage of its life. Still a warm, clean, and welcoming place. Standard diner fare without the flare or frills. Good service, but I found the pancakes to be a little chewy, lumpy. But, by Jove, the prices are cheap. What a value.

    Patty Melt
    Matthew D.

    Very prompt service, food was very dinner-ish and delicious. I had the chicken noodle soup and it was killer, patty melt could have had a little more meat on it but the flavor was there.

    Bacon Waffles
    Tony A.

    This is definitely a good place to bring a small group of friends or co-workers. The food is very good and there was no lack of attention. The wait staff was frequently coming by to check if we needed coffee refills and to make sure everything was ok. You can definitely tell everything is homemade as well. I have been several times and will be back. The restaurant is on the corner of 465 and Highschool Rd, but tucked behind another business so if you aren't looking for it you might not see it.

    This place is awesome! A real American diner. The pancakes are DIVINE, and the server was sweet and fast.

    This place is awesome! A real American Diner experience. The tables were roomy, good chairs, and GREAT service. The waiter was sweet and fast. The food was hearty and decent quality. Prices were fair. And the pancakes were DIVINE!

    Top sirloin eggs and hash browns
    Ruth Shandale T.

    Absolutely excellent customer service. They only had two servers to work the floor and they had the best attitudes I have probably ever experienced out of all the restaurants I've ever been to. This is definitely a place for regular customers. You really do feel at home and welcomed. Some of the best steak I've ever had medium rare. They do have Worcestershire sauce in the back if you ask for it. My steak egg and hash brown meal was plenty to fill me up especially since I'm supposed to be eating in smaller portions (doctor's orders). So the second half of my meal will definitely be my lunch for later today. She did let me know that they do à la carte for the steaks and any menu item. Call ahead by about 15 minutes to place your orders for takeout except on the weekends because they get really really busy and I can definitely see why. This is definitely a spot I'm bringing my honey too he loves good home cooking like this. That way we can both sit down and enjoy it and not have to worry about cleaning up at home. This was going to the top of my West side list because it's right by the airport and 465 and the food is absolutely excellent!

    Apple pancake
    Joey S.

    I came in here with a friend for breakfast after reading some reviews, we both ordered the apple pancake in Medium, I make something very similar at home and I have eaten something like it at another restaurant. We also ordered coffee. My son order a breakfast that had hash browns, biscuits and gravy, eggs and I think sausage. He can do his own review, I just know he said the hash browns were not done. Both of our Pancakes were overcooked in my opinion, the apple and cinnamon was very tasty and hot, but the pancake itself was dry and even over cooked cake like. So a dry cake if you will. It was still good, and maybe they had an off day. I know they said it would be 35 minutes to make which might explain it as I wouldn't think it should be baked for that long, but hey I am not a chef, just someone who cooks and bakes a lot. The coffee was well coffee, it wasn't the best I have ever had, but not everyone likes the same style coffee, even if my friend and my son agreed it wasn't the best. Will I be back, in one word yes. I want to give them another chance as I really wanted to enjoy the meal. I will try one of their omelets or something else next trip, but I will be back. When I do I promise to update this review. I would have gone 3.5 stars by the way. As I know how hard it can be to bake a pancake like this.

    Eclair waffles.
    Adam H.

    The best breakfast you'll find in Indianapolis. With a menu covering everything from diner favorites to Dutch babies you can't go wrong here. Great service (they always keep your cup of coffee full) and prices. The stand out for me is the eclair waffles. You also can't go wrong with anything topped with chorizo gravy.

    This was the last food stop on my road trip and where the train derails because I didn't plan an exit breakfast like I did all my other great stops. This place was close to my hotel and on the way home just off the highway so I stopped. The place is dated looking but not a complete dive with tile/wood and that old carpet. The menu had a lot of choices but I wanted runny yokes so I could do an egg dish or a benny dish because I would get runny yokes, I opted for the Hoosier Benny which is a biscuit, sausage patties, poached egg topped with sausage gravy that comes with hash browns, breakfast comes with free coffee by the way. I placed my order and got my Coffey while I waited for my food, for the place being 90% empty my food was taking a while I thought and I didn't get a coffee warm up for 25 minuets when my food hit the table and that was the only warm up but I was done anyway. The plate looked really good so I started with the golden hash browns that were good with a nice ratio of crispy vs soft potatoes. When I forked a bite out of the Benny no yoke ran out, WTF they cooked them hard, who does that because that defeats poached eggs, why not just put a boiled egg on the Benny. The biscuit was fresh and good. The sausage patties were thicker than average patties but the bland appeal to the masses kind, too bad they weren't tastier. The sausage gravy was thick/creamy with minimal sausage and slightly better than average. At the end I was left standing at the register for a good 7 minuets while the staff walked past me so I'm still getting slow service, once again I skipped the breakfast that came with my room and it was probably better here so I'm still giving three stars.

    Sketchy fish special platter... returned... fish was bad like skunky!
    Guido V.

    Mothers was recommended to us by the locals - we decided to try it out. Friend order the Fish combo special which he sent back after the first bite... under cooked across the board and not fresh? - double whammy. I ordered scrambled eggs thinking I'd be safe - it was safe. Bacon was way over done --- but not sure on which day that happened on before it was served to me. Two bright notes, and there is always a bright note - is the staff, only one server this evening but she was a super star! She was so accommodating and friendly... she just wanted us happy. Secondly my friend who sent the fish back order a replacement dish the same as me... scrambled eggs, bacon and fries instead of hash browns... his was awesome!!! I wanted to order again to get his! Sooooo that's 50/50. Maybe an off night??? I hope so... good people.

The inside was bright, clean, well-appointed and spacious. Our wait person was friendly and prompt. I ordered the tomato bisque and grilled cheese special, while Gayle opted for a Patty Melt (with Fries). Both choices were delicious and just the right amount of food for me. Gayle left a fair amount of food on her plate, mostly due to a huge sandwich and lot for fries. I appreciated that this place offered beers that didn't have the word IPA in them, with my Oatmeal Stout being a great choice. Gayle went for her favorite Chardonnay preference.

It does have beautiful artwork replicas of Napoleon, some with funny additions. My husband had the fish and chips, which was a decent serving with very good homemade tartar sauce. I had half a sandwich and their broccoli soup. All in all, it was good enough food, in a nice enough setting, but not something we would come back for.

They have a rather large stage, so they probably have bands or entertainment at night.

Charisse, the bartender and only server was super engaging, attentive and went the extra mile to ensure a positive experience. Not only did she check on us, but the cook also came out and checked on our meals. We had 5 star service. The menu offers pizza, sandwiches and salads. Prices are reasonable. I selected the taco salad with pulled pork. The salad was immense with fresh lettuce, tomato and cheese. The pulled pork was good. The fried shell was a bit greasy. Otherwise, the salad was good and filling. My husband had the Big Western Burger which he raved about (and he can be critical). The burger was specially prepared medium rare for him and it was cooked perfectly. He loved the bacon, onion rings and bbq sauce toppings. He gave the burger a definite 5 stars. The table we selected was a bit cold (it was snowing out). Every time someone came into the building, a blast of cold came in. We probably could have moved but the table was already set.
