Great place! Wish we had one closer to us! We were in Fort Mayers for a job and this place was highly recommended. Menu says they cook clean aka no shitty ingredients or low grade ingredients and I like that. I try my best to eat clean which is tough so this was a huge plus. The food was good, no one had any problems with their order. I had their famous salad (Too lazy to google it and too old to remember the name) and it was very good and huge! Maybe I’m getting old but I felt very satisfied, I say that because I never order salads nor do I not take the opportunity for a good piece of red meat. I had a side of biscuits and gravy and they were so good. I highly recommend. They also have some serious friend pickles! Oh they were so good! Also their sauce that comes with the pickles taste ju

My wife and I shared the 4 Oz lobster tail/steak meal with baked potato and chicken soup. The lobster tail was best good but the steak seemed like a combo of steak and chopped steak. Good nonetheless. The vodka martini was unexpectedly good. It didn't really feel like a diner l like the ones I used to frequent in NY and NJ. It was more like a traditional American restaurant. We had no issues with the service. The price was reasonable.

Very nice staff, food was excellent and the decor takes you back to the 70’s? There’s lots of seating and the prices were decent for the quality and amount of food you get. We’ll definitely be back. There’s more menu items we want to try. There’s lots of free parking and easy to find from the main road.

Frequent this diner a lot for over 20 years. Breakfast, lunch and dinner all excellent. Bill the manager is friendly and on the ball. Ask for server Bre, she is the best! Food is always great and hot. Love the salmon and burgers. Great atmosphere and plenty of parking.
