⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — laura medina
Local hidden gem, the atmosphere is colorful and the food is excellent. My brother and I had lunch there and it was as good as we found anywhere in our home state of NJ. I had a grilled cheese and fries he had pastrami on rye. The service was great and the prices are reasonable. I noticed they also have Italian hot dogs on the menu, something to try on our next visit.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Joe Rivera
The staff were all very friendly and kind. The food was pretty good. They give relatively decent portions and at a pretty good price point too. They have a pretty decent sized menu as well. I would recommend dropping by and giving them a try if you're in the Jensen/St. Lucie/Stuart area!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Bill R
Update 6/30/23 - Food and coffee and service were all excellent! Had the hungry man combination (2 eggs, breakfast potatoes, meat and 2 pancakes or 2 french toast). It was very tasty, cooked perfectly, and served warm. My wife and I got the same meal, and we had ham as the meat and French toast, both which were excellent! One of the best diner coffees we have had in the area. The portion was good and the prices were reasonable. Our server, Rebecca, was terrific and kept moving constantly. The diner was very busy. Good breakfast and good coffee. Prices were reasonable and staff was efficient and friendly.
