This place reminded me of all the 50s diners I frequented as a kid with all the familiar dishes.For old timeâs sake I ordered the Hot Beef Sandwich, open faced white bread, heaps of thin sliced beef smothered in brownish/black gravy, like canned Franco-American, with mashed potatoes. It tasted pretty much the way I remembered it. Definitely not gourmet, but tasty and filling. My husband ordered the Patty Melt and said it was the best heâd had in a while. The fries werenât anything to write home or TripAdvisor about, but the coleslaw was quite good. It had a light dressing on it that wasnât sweet or goopy.The ambiance is nice and definitely friendly. The servers are all gracious and welcoming. The place had a number of regulars the servers called by name. I thought it was lovely.The location is a little bit off the beaten path, but it is obviously a locals kind of place that people love. We would eat here again.

Sort of a greasy spoon type place, kind of a hidden gem. Showed up on Sunday about 10 and was seated immediately. Great service, good price. Had the grilled Kielbasa with eggs and it was good.

We had breakfast yesterday at Charlie's. I had their special spinach, bacon and cheese omelet, served with hash browns and sourdough. Very very good. My lady had a cheese omelet with 4 strips of bacon on the side, plus hash browns and toast. She enjoyed her meal too. The folks at Charlie's do it right. Service was excellent and our coffee cups were continually filled. We'll be back!

Besides being a small cute 50s diner on the corner across from Graybill Urgent Care and having cute sandwich names, I am in love with the Mickey Mouse Club with avocado added. Their fries are automatically seasoned I think and are delicious. I always look forward to this meal when I am in the area. Other sandwiches are also loved by my colleagues. Delicious all three times so far!

For more than 65 years Denny's has been bringing people together over great food. It's the place where people can relax and be themselves; where they can enjoy classic American comfort food and everyday value. 24 hours a day. 365 days a year. Here, you ca

Arrived and were promptly seated by the Host/Manager Jose. We were told the server would be right there. That did not happen. Host/Manager came back 10 minutes later took our drink order, and again reassured us our server would be right there. 5 minutes later, the Host/Manager came back and took our food order. The first time we saw our server (Javier) was 15 minutes later when the food was served. We ordered a club sandwich w/fries and a grilled cheese w/soup. The Club and soup showed up but there was a small wait for the grilled cheese. There were 4 servers, along with the Host/Manager so it was not understaffed. Food was typical Dennyâs fare. Total before tip was $19/90. Donât think we will eat here again, just due to poor service.
