    Chicken Kebob Salad Sandwich - Amazing. The dressing is homemade, the chicken is cooked to perfection and the salad alone was amazing. First time there. So welcoming. I sat at the counter. Joyce "JB" and Peggy are THE BEST. I will be back! The regular customers also THE BEST. I've been telling everyone about this. Got to get my friends and family in this place. Thank you!! Also, SO YUM!

    Bacon ham and linguiça

    #2 Two Eggs, Bacon, Homefries, Toast, Single Pancake
    Jessica B.

    A classic breakfast! I ordered eggs over easy, bacon, toast, home fries and a pancake. Everything was cooked perfectly; eggs were runny, bacon was crispy, toast was over-buttered (yum!), home fries were real potatoes and the pancake was fluffy. I enjoyed every last bite! Word on the street is this place has a fantastic lunch/dinner menu as well, which I can't wait to try. Definitely check this place out if you like a good old-school "greasy spoon" diner style breakfast :) *CASH ONLY*

    Had an outstanding time and in consideration of the last time our meals were even better. Fresh cooked meals, with the best service and in this tough economy, these prices are for all of the most frugal!! Please don't miss out!

    Lamb Ke Bob Sandwich, yummy!

    Fantastic find! I love Greek food and don't know how I missed this gem of a diner. They have a counter--I love a diner with a counter! (Being single never gets in the way of a good meal for me, lol, and I don't like to make a waitress walk over to a table for just little old me ;) Today I was fortunate to have a conversation with a local lady. That would never happen if I was sitting alone at a table. The diner is cute and old fashioned with wooden booths--love them! The waitresses treat you like family. They genuinely care about your experience and make sure you're happy with your meal. Anyway, I had the lamb kabob sandwich. On the recommendation of the (wonderful) waitress, I chose to have it cooked medium rare. It came out beautifully, served with lettuce, tomato, and cucumber in a pita half with a yummy dressing. (For once, the first time in my life, there was enough dressing! I always have to ask for more.) The dressing was tasty and distinctive--very enjoyable. Definitely add feta cheese to the order! What's Greek food without feta?! The desserts looked fantastic, but I had no room left. Next time. ***Please know they only accept cash, so come prepared.*** There is a small parking lot (with small spaces) next to the restaurant. The restaurant is located in the section of Braintree that seems to be alive and relatively thriving, unlike so many town centers of moderate income. I was told there's a good yarn store nearby--score!-- next time! I went back the next day for breakfast, which was very satisfying. It was a larger portion than I was expecting. Coffee is only $2!

    Really great breakfast selections with pricing and portions. Very happy workers who are fast and kind. Food came quickly and was cooked to order. Great western omelette with a side of bacon.

    #5 Steak and 2 Eggs
    Nelson R.

    Came in for some breakfast, I had the steak tips and eggs and my wife had the western omelette. Both were ok the service was great and fast but it's cash only and they have an ATM machine if you need to grab some inside the place.

    Lamb shank with rice and green beans
    Tom N.

    The food is always great and for a good price. It's cash only. I had the baked lamb shank

    Stuffed chicken with gravy, mashed,cranberry sauce and green beans. Excellent!!!

    This spot has been on my "I should try that someday" list for a few years, and I'm so glad I…read morefinally made it in. The first thing that surprised me was how much seating they offer. The outdoor area is inviting, and inside there's a great mix of low-top tables, high-tops, bar seating, and cozy spots to settle into. Everything feels thoughtfully spread out, and I loved being able to see the open brick oven and activity in the kitchen. The space also has a bit of a bakery/café vibe, making it feel like a place where you could stop in for a quick grab-and-go item or stay awhile for a full meal. The staff made a great impression too. The people at the front were incredibly helpful to my guest, who was having some trouble with their phone. I also ordered one of the specialty drinks but asked for it without alcohol. The bartender absolutely nailed it--it was so good that my only complaint was that it didn't come in a bigger glass. For food, I had the grass-fed burger and fries (see photo), and it exceeded my expectations. The burger was so juicy and flavorful that I ended up cutting it into pieces just to make it manageable. Every bite was delicious. What I appreciate most is that I left feeling like I hadn't even experienced everything the restaurant has to offer. I already want to go back, choose a different seat, and enjoy a completely different perspective of the space. Honestly, it feels like the perfect place to spend a rainy afternoon. This is your sign, visit now!

    Delicious!! Fresh. Flavors on point, preparation on point. Friendly service, adorable patio. 10/10…read moreNo notes.
