Plus the puppy picture name wall was adorable and they name meals after them! Our server was nice and the menu had interesting choices, but sadly they sounded better than what they were. - the scramble was not that great...overdone eggs and I'm not a fan of slapping a square piece of cheese on eggs. I think shredded cheddar would have been a better choice and the crumbly-sausage was an odd choice for breakfast sausage - I was excited they had hash browns but they were premade with garlic powder and came out mushy. They left a lingering weird garlic flavor - turkey sandwich had real turkey breast which was great but it was too hot and made the sandwich soggy - burrito was good but the homefries were burnt beyond repair Lots of parking on the side and front area

Seated promptly and our server took our drink orders. They had plenty of St. Patrick's Day specials to choose from which included Shepard pie, corned beef sandwiches and various other dishes. We ordered pancakes, blue cheese bacon burger with fries. Very short wait before our meals showed up. Three large pancakes with plenty of butter and a nice bottle of syrup that was on the table. The burger was cooked medium as requested and was large on a nice soft bun with loads of blue cheese and bacon. Lettuce and tomato were on the side which was good because the burger was so big before adding them that you wouldn't be able to get a bite of it. Season of the meat was excellent and this was probably one of the best burgers I've had in a long time. A small container of coleslaw was on the side. Fries were very crispy and stayed that way through the meal. Service was excellent and the seating was very comfortable. Will definitely have return trips there for lunch if we're in the area.

The ribeye steak medium rare is the way to go, my wife ordered the same steak but she likes it medium well. Mine was perfection, while hers was half good and the other half like cardboard. Other than that, all the other foods we have ordered like the crab benedict and lobster benedict never disappoints. The diner offers tesla destination charging so you can charge while dining which helps adds a few miles onto your car while you're dining. The staff has always been pleasant and the food overall is amazing. I would definitely come back here the next time I come to Mystic area.

However, this is getting 3 stars because although I was given a large portion of friends with my fish and chips, it was obvious that some of the fries were old and refried which was really disappointing. The fish used for the fish and chips was extremely.... fishy! Maybe it's because I've had fish and chips in Norway, England, San Francisco etc but it was way too thick and just not the right fish in my opinion. Although the staff was friendly, when my order was ready they all kind of walked away and didn't really tell me if I could pay there or not, so I stood at the register for a few minutes before anyone asked me what I needed. They were still very polite, just not really aware I guess. However, I would still go back to this place because the ambiance is great, what I could eat was great, the portions given and selections was large, and they were very friendly!

I finally met up with a few friends--one who lives in the area--and we decided to try it. I'm really glad we did. One of my friends is a native Mexican and an excellent cook, and even she agreed the food tasted authentic. We ordered the huevos rancheros with green sauce, plus both the pork and chicken tamales. Nothing disappointed. The tamales were moist--something I appreciate since many places serve them too dry. The only small suggestion I'd make is for the staff to ask if we'd like extra sauce for the tamales, which would make them perfect. Others in our group tried tacos and tostadas and felt the portions were generous; delicious and the prices very fair. The décor gives you the feeling of a neighborhood spot in Mexico. It's not fancy, but it's warm and welcoming. There were a lot of takeout orders while we were there--and it was only 10 a.m.--with people from all backgrounds coming in and out. Clearly, they have a loyal customer base. The staff was very friendly and answered all our questions.  She did a great job checking in often since we were there for hours.   I'm already looking forward to coming back.
