That Place

Tried breakfast once and lunch once not big fans of either. But take out chicken is very good.

A tad odd that you enter the restaurant from the back. Cute attempt on nostalgic 50/60’s décor. Menu had many basic americana fare. Walking into the place the aroma of the fried chicken was wonderful. I would have ordered their all you could eat wing dings but I was on a mission to have liver and onions to celebrate my mom’s birthday. Where this place lacks is in trained servers and efficient cooks. Nice waiters but way too long to greet and get me a menu and during meal very little table maintenance. Local eateries like too many other places as well need to train and monitor proper wait skills. Luckily I already knew what to order as I looked online. It took over 30 minutes to prepare the meal. Liver and onions should be a quick turnaround. But I suspect the cooks receive no more training then the front of the house. All the tables around me were experiencing slow service. That is why this place is 3 stars at best. Food was tasty with a homemade flavor. Just what I was looking to enjoy. So stop by if you have time otherwise try another place in Hart.

Food is pretty much as expected for a greasy spoon type of place. Not great but not bad.
50’s style décor is nice.
Would have given 4 stars but just about every time I have been there it takes a long time to get the food.

Food and service were not very impressive. I wanted onions in my american fries and was told I couldn’t because they only deep fry them. But they do the hash browns on the griddle. The first time I went there I got the american fries with onion on the griddle though. The food is very average and nothing special at all. Probably the worst I’ve had in the area. I’m willing to pay for good food and tip for good service. I didn’t get either.

I come here to eat the best blueberry pancakes in this area!!!
The waitress is pleasant.
Big menu with breakfast all day!

Pretty unimpressed with this trip. Poor service and even worse food. Sad as this is normally a good place to grab a meal.

We stop here every year on our way to get in line for the Michigan Womyn’s Music Festival. We only get the fried chicken and mashed potatoes with gravy. Basic stuff. I can’t vouch for anything else, but frankly, it’s freaking good. Of course, our excitement probably adds to our pleasure, but whatever.
Could be a bit cleaner.

We have been here 3 times for breakfast only. And have liked it each time. Food was always good. Service was always adequate even when busy. And pricing is fair. We will be back liked it.

The atmosphere is one-​of-​a-​kind with bubble gum colored chairs that are so comfy!!! Totally 50s aura with Betty Boop the model of an era. My wife had the sourdough French toast and I had the #38 with bacon substituted for the sausage.

I think the fried chicken here is awesome! The waitress was so nice. This town is tiny and the options are rather limited but the fried chicken here was great!

Waited over an hour for breakfast and nothing came. Got a little concerned when another group walked out saying they had waited an hour and a half.
Ended up walking out without getting any food. Waitress came over and said, «We’re getting ready to cook your order, so if you’re going to leave, now would be the time.» She was very rude and did not offer to comp coffee and milk we’d had while waiting; floor manager was flustered at the kitchen and just waved us off, told us to just leave and not pay.

Would not go here if you want good food. Had the veg beef soup and all you tasted was salt. Had a reuben sandwich same size as a grilled cheese with enough fries for a 2 year old. Not worth stopping at again.

Excellent menu, great food, nice people.
It’s always tough to decide what to get; it all sounds like just the thing I’d like to have RIGHT NOW. And not just your typical diner stuff but more aggressive diner stuff in the way of interesting breakfasts, burgers, sandwiches, chicken, fish and sides. All very reasonably priced.
And it is some good stuff, served up hot. Chicken is a specialty, but they whip up their own pulled beef and turkey… in fact, nothing really tastes like it’s out of a can. Roast beef melt is excellent, so is the quesadilla burger. My Folks have been coming for breakfast for a few years and never leave disappointed.
As for the service, it’s warm and fast. The regulars are greeted heartily, but we out-​of-​towners feel just as appreciated.
Now, if they could only offer the fried asparagus for more of the summer, I might think about that 5^th star. It’s perfect, the best I’ve had in the area BY FAR. Otherwise, this place is aok.
