The 50's-esque diner is located on NW 12th and Glisan. The joint was featured on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives awhile back, so it sounded like a given that the food would be a hit.
Not so much.
We popped in around 8:30 to a full house. At first glance, the place was super cute but we snagged a little table outside, which was much more enjoyable anyways with the weather being so lovely.
The coffee was Stumptown, but it wasn't nearly as good as it should have been. I only had one cup, and that's saying something for me...who usually gulps down at least 3.
We each ordered the Mt. Rushmore Hash, which sounded amazing: Home fried potatoes, hand - cut corned beef, onions and chunky bell peppers toppedwith cheddar cheese and one egg your way.
It was just meh. It was definitely edible, and I ate until I was full. By no means was I as satisfied as I expected to be. I can (and do) make better hashes and scrambles at home.
Live and learn. My verdict? 2 out of 5 stars. Feel free to skip this one.

I've never stopped in here but have been past it hundreds of times!!! Guess I wont be stopping by there now... :)
I love this place! I think they have great scrambles:) Sorry you had a bad experience!
Maybe I just ordered the wrong thing - or went on an off day.
Oh well!
