You should scurry off to class now so the professor will not get mad at you for showing up late.

For the record:

“Diner” does not equal “gravy”.

“Old decor” does not equal “dirty and unkept”.

So I went to a diner in an office building that didn’t serve gluten-free soy pancakes or an organic spinach and goat cheese pannini?! Oh the humanity! Who would expect such a dated menu in such a venue? I took a risk and ordered the Turkey special, which came with homemade gravy. As somebody who was raised in an bunker underneath the Rocky Mountains, I had never experienced such vile offerings, so called “Typical American Diner Food”, and was completely taken aback!

Also, the place was old with older decor, so it and the people who eat there must be connected with Fox News somehow. They need to replace the Elvis and Marilyn Monroe posters with Thom York and Amy Winehouse ones.

Hundreds of regular customers can’t be wrong, the service is great, the prices reasonable, and the food is good for what it’s supposed to be: Diner Fare. Try the Turkey Club or the Tomato and Onion Omelette. Good food for a good price, and not assinine like some wanna be restaurant reviews.

To tell you the truth, I was very generous with the review. In fact, the restaurant was disgustingly dirty/grimy and cluttered. I understand if the budget is tight that the owner can not renovate the place. But a roll of paper towels and some spray cleaner is not too much to ask is it? Also, straighten it up a bit. It’s not cute or homey. It’s just a big mess.

The hugely overweight boss in the kitchen is a testament to the heart-clogging gravy that he serves.

The much-written-about waitress was, in fact, slow, inefficient, and not friendly at all to my table of first-time customers.

Also, the menu is badly written and has several clear mistakes that cause confusion.

Oh. Maybe I forgot to mention. All the food is slathered/buried/drowned in gravy.

So…Is that any better? Am I acting sufficiently grateful yet?

The diner is just that, nothing more nothing less. It is greasy, but good.

Do us all a favor and go drown your distaste in bbq sauce.
