Lovely, exceptional workers like Britney, Roger, Emily, and Diana make this place special. Yeaterday, our table had delicious Cobb Salad, Greek Salad, Patty Melt, mashed potatoes, Minestrone Soup, ham, eggs, pancakes, and Lemon Blueberry Marscapone cake. Lots of sharing and leftovers. All 10/10!
Dropped in for lunch today for the first time. It's definitely a diner vibe going on there. Great music in the background and if you're into model trains this place will make you feel good. So the routine here is you order at the counter and then seat yourself in one of the many booths or few tables and wait for your meal to be served. The place is clean but a little thread worn. The menu is large with mostly diner type fare. I ordered the gyro plate with fries (crinkle cut!) and a soft drink. My wife ordered the chefs salad. The gyro was tasty and the fries were crispy delicious. My wife said her salad was fresh and testy. Overall it was a very good experience and this will be on our return list.
I have lived in Lodi for 40 years, I less than half a mile from the, and I tried it for the first time today. It definitely will not be the last time! We got a couple of burgers with fries, fried mushrooms, and a piece of cake as well as a mango lime smoothie. The burgers were amazing, definitely the best in Lodi and I have had probably all of them. They make a Greek burger that has everything. I love about Mediterranean food on top of a burger, who does that? I loved it. It was amazing. I am definitely not going to be able to think of enough positive adjectives to review, I was pleasantly surprised, and the food. All of it was fantastic. My husband said the mushroom burger was fantastic as well. The fries were real fries, I even had ketchup. I never put ketchup on my fries, but these were that kind of fry. The fried mushrooms were a fun little appetizer. I can't tell you about the I'm too full from everything else and I haven't tried it but I can't tell you smoothie is amazing as well. We are already making plans to have and cabbage on 17 March surrounded by trains and planes.
