"My wife and I just came from having breakfast, it's been a very long time since I have had some great food from a diner or a restaurant. The country skillet from this diner was top notch the best I have ever had. I have had breakfast down south I. The Savannah, Ga area but this tops it sorry. Thank you so much."

"It is cute little authentic diner, you think you walked in to the historical place... interestingly enough and pleasant was when we walked in, I need to visit restroom, the hostess lady not just said that somebody might be in it in the wheelchair and they might still be there and said if you really have to you can go to men's room it's just one stall, but she knocked on the door and somebody was in, so she just apologized and said you can sit on the chair here, while waiting till bathroom is vacant - that never ever ever ever happened to me before - it is very personal customer service ,witch continued by our table, personnel was always very attentive and last but not least - food was incredible quality... we left with happy bellies and good feeling in the heart..."

"This little place has become a weekly trip. Service is great. Soup was very salty first time that we went but had since improved. The turkey cream soup was excellent! I had chicken parm which was very tasty. Wife had pot roast which was also very good. Will definitely return!"

"After early voting we celebrated (voting is important and should be celebrated!!) with lunch at Sides Diner and Grill. Our first time there, the service is friendly and attentive, the food is delicious, quickly served and generous portions. The diner is of medium size, with tables, booths and counter seating. It’s well laid out, with lots of room for accessibility. There were many locals there, greeted by name and served like family. It was a wonderful atmosphere."
