One of the best breakfasts in town . Non greasy migas are hard to get in Houston. Pancakes are outstanding. For lunch their patty melt really is the best in town .

I recommend the Breakfast Wrap , from the “All-Day Breakfast ” (or until 5pm, 4pm weekends, when they close).

Cathal Keane

Breakfast All Day is the way to my heart. Eggs , pancakes , and several cups of diner coffee ..mmm. I recommend the super six. It IS spicy . You're warned.

Amy Vercher

The best breakfast stop with all the classics of a diner and at unbeatable prices. Everything is delicious, albeit unhealthy!

Dustin Lyday

Their diner coffee is magic. The service is great too. Sit at the bar and get a milk shake . Authentic and classic Houston breakfast .

Good brunch place but nothing exciting. Get there early otherwise you'll have a ridiculous wait

Chocolate peanut butter milkshake may as well be a liquified Reese's. Delicious.

Perfect diner experience.

Breakfast isn't so bad. Though neither the food nor service is as good as the 59 Diner on Shepherd.

My new favorite place.
