This is a true story...I just ate there this morning. One of the employees (wearing a chef jacket) had a huge gaping wound on his leg (at least 6 inches long). I would have much preferred not to see something like that when I am trying to eat, but I overlooked it at first since the food was good and reasonably priced. Then I actually saw him walk in the back (not close the door behind himself) and put some kind of ointment all over his fresh scab. He promptly turned around, returned to his front end station (behind the counter) and went right back to plating food without even wiping his hands, let alone washing them. I immediately asked for the manager, told her what I saw and all she did was look at me like a deer caught in the headlights and let out a insincere "oh, that is our cook - sorry about that." She didn't even walk over to talk to him after our complaint. Totally disgusting and unacceptable! Anyone who is even slightly concerned with cleanliness should not go here!
Good old fashioned diner experience. Breakfast is always good, but the biggest surprise is the cheese burgers are even better. I eat there at least 2-3 times / week.
