I had the BLT with avocado and every part of the meal was excellent. The toasty bread was crisp and had a really nice texture; the egg was cooked just how I asked; the bacon a perfect balance of crisp and chewy. I asked for an extra side of avocado (I'm all about getting my fiber) and it arrived at the peak of perfect ripeness. The home fries were tender and savory. Also my cappuccino was delicious. The dining area was very clean and had a faintly rustic feel. The bathroom was also sparkling clean. I was in and out in less than 40 minutes, too, but never felt rushed. There were plenty of vegetarian options. I'm not too sure about it if you have to avoid dairy or gluten; the menu has a lot of that. Handicap access was pretty good: no steps to get in and out of the place. Honestly I can't wait to visit here again!

I placed my order, got my silverware and table number and sat down to wait for them to bring it out, very efficient way to do things. When my food arrived, an omelet with mushrooms, onions, sweet Italian sausage, and cheddar cheese, my eyes grew wide. Before digging in I popped a stray mushroom that was sitting on top of omelette before taking the photo. Immediately noticed the amount of flavor of the mushroom alone, it prompted me to ask if they were marinated, the chef/owner came out after I was done and said she takes baby bella mushrooms, cuts them up and sautees them in salt pepper garlic, "no cans here' she said and you can tell. Upon digging into the omelette I found it to be loaded with the ingredients I had chosen, even distribution, I mean just look at that cross section! The potatoes were seasoned well and delightfully crispy. Prices were more than fair for the quality. They definitely care, they definitely put out excellent food, and I think they'll definitely succeed, even with being in a tough spot parking wise...I'm local to Norwood but I'll gladly pay the meter every time if it means I get to enjoy more of the Good Vibes Only!

Would definitely order the dumplings and the cornbread skillet every time!

The dining room is beautifully decorated--perfectly lit for an evening meal with warm, cozy candlelit tables. The seating is spaced comfortably apart, allowing for private conversation, especially on a night that isn't overly crowded. It's an ideal spot for date night. The restaurant is BYOB, and I noticed they also offer mocktails on the menu. We began with soup. The lobster bisque was savory and flavorful, featuring a plump piece of lobster in the center. The New England clam chowder was also thoroughly enjoyed. There's a wide selection of entrées, and we appreciated the recommendations on the most popular dishes. In addition to steak, poultry, and seafood, the menu also includes a section dedicated to vegan entrées. I ordered the lump crab cake as my entrée, and we also had the fried red snapper. Although the crab cake was lump rather than jumbo lump, it was well seasoned and not overloaded with filler. It was generously sized, filling, and served with a citrus remoulade that complemented it nicely. The whole red snapper was a generous market-priced portion, perfectly coated and fried. The fish was moist, flavorful, and cooked just right--not overdone. Each entrée is thoughtfully garnished; the red snapper was served with fried plantain and mango salsa, which paired beautifully. Sides are served à la carte. We chose the lobster mac and cheese and sautéed spinach. We also ordered the calamari a bit later but enjoyed it before our entrées arrived. It was crispy and drizzled with a sauce that balanced sweetness with a subtle kick of heat. The lobster mac and cheese featured pasta (think it was cavatappi) in a rich, creamy cheese like gouda, topped with a generous piece of lobster. The sautéed spinach was lightly seasoned and cooked perfectly, complementing the meal well. Overall, the dishes were well balanced and full of flavor. We didn't have room for dessert this time, but on our next visit I'd love to try either the butter cake or the bread pudding

I had the whiting and it was amazing. I would go back and order just a plateful of fish if I could. But rest assured everything else was good too-- cornbread, greens, fries. The owner was attentive and kind. It was our server's first night and boy was he nervous. But he didn't have to be, because we are harmless (mostly) and he did a fabulous job! Shout out to that young man. There was also an amazing young singer who entertained us while we ate. I am so glad to see a place like this in Lansdowne. I hope they thrive and if this review can help them do so, then I have done my job. Definitely check it out.

I have…read moreonly had a few TooGoodToGo experiences so far- so I can't speak to restaurant experience except for what I have observed. Friendly staff who really care about their customers and all the different logistics. The two TooGoodToGos I have gotten reasonably consider that the app helps with minimizing waste. Some vendors seem to charge more if you purchase from them further ahead of time but Blue South considers price point- they match up the ID numbers to make sure you get what you paid for, and they offer a reasonable amount for what you Get. The first offer I got was cheaper and I was like this is okay. The quality is fine, nothing sticks out for me, and quantity is okay. I believe the first platter for me was chicken and greens only. I decided to try the higher priced item when it was available and I like that fuller offering. It's good advertising for them. The last time I went in there, even though I didn't see the customers, I could tell they were having a happy Friday evening birthday. I am sad to hear about the 30k contract issue. Running a restaurant especially now is difficult. Lansdowne downtown has been having a hard time, but I see the theater across the street is back up and this place seems to capture something that I think the community is looking for. Does Blue South have some kind of deal with the theater across the street such as if you buy a ticket you get a free appetizer or something like this? If the theater does jazz performers, Blue South could be nice for a VIP type session maybe before or after the main performance if possible.

You'd likely drive past this diner without giving it a second thought. But the sign reading…read more'homemade bread' caught my attention. After fasting for a blood test this morning, I said to T, "let's give Ace a try." And I'm glad we did. The building goes back about ninety years, maintaining its old-fashioned ambience ... or what one might consider lack thereof. The menu is more limited than what you'd find in contemporary diners, but they had what I wanted, a western omelet. Served with coarse buttered grits -- delicious! -- the omelet was better (and cheaper!) than what I ordered in Florida's popular "House of Omelets." So, dummy me, I didn't take a photo of the bread that brought me in, in the first place! (I was preoccupied with a phone call.) Eggs come with two thick slices of pre-buttered white bread toast, which I'm guessing makes excellent French toast. The diner is open for breakfast and lunch. While it wasn't busy mid-morning, takeout orders were flying out the door. Apparently Ace Diner is no secret to locals.

Bill: $41.00. both of our grits were returned, they must have run out from the morning rush bec our grits were like eating fork fulls of sand. (Sent them both back immediately) my home fries, tasted like they were sitting on the grill for 3 days. OLD as siht. (didn't eat at all) . Asked for the menu back to see if the prices were were charged coincided with our bill. our omelets listed at $12 ea plus $1 for extras and 2 cups of coffee @ $2 ea. Call the manager over to explain her bill and of course she had another way of billing us. .The peppers and onions cooked into my home fries and my turkey bacon was an additional $5, our 2 cups of coffee was $5 ea. (apparently a sm mug of coffee equals a lg coffee bec its refillable) nevermind the sz of the cup. None of the add-on charges were ever mentioned while we were placing our order. Only after we inquired did we receive clearage as to what was going on. and although I was charge $5 for my disgusting grits and home fries, she would only remove $1 from the bill even though we didn't eat but half of the meals. Even our homemade toast was burnt and returned. Honestly, I feel she should have deducted one of our meals completely but I'm sure that never crossed her mind. The positive to our visit? The coffee was good and the waitress was attentive and very curteous. This long time visitor is no more. I've had ups and downs b4 with Aces but never this bad. Time to move on to better pastures.

Unassuming from the outside, far more inviting once you enter -- my favorite detail, the black-and- white checkered floor. Classic. The warmth of the manager was apparent right away. We got the booth we wanted, off to a good start. Basic breakfast order, no fuss, server took down all the details. When it comes to my bacon, I prefer crisp - and it was perfect, honestly. Coffee, big mug, hot, robust. My meal did not disappoint in the slightest. Generous serving of potatoes with my eggs (I suggest asking for onions, again, perfect). Except ... My toast. I had to wait for my toast while my breakfast sat. I've been to *many* diners in my life, not the first time I've experienced this, it happens ... but the amount of time I waited for it to come, seemed to suggest there had been an oversight. And I guess that ties into the strongest negative I might mention. There were intervals of waiting that threw off the rhythm of how a diner operates. I needed water my partner needed a refill ... and for a while it seemed like the only way that could happen is if I got up, went to the counter and asked for it. (Not alone in this. A nearby table did exactly that to get what they needed.) Easy fixes, not that big a deal. My first suggestion: Have a big pitcher of water on ice ready at all times. When you see a glass low, go for it. Simple, the mark of a pro. Listen -- I love diners, can't get enough, the more around my neighborhood the better. When we told our server we'd be back, we meant it. Especially for the gelato! Homemade! The sample I tasted, delectable. We all have room for improvement, so no harm no foul. I really need to try dinner at the Delco Diner -- BYOB, c'mon. Support these folks, they're great.
