text: The Courier mystifies me It is always packed People say they love the food They think the building is charming But the decor seems more tired and limp than it does charming and authentic and the place is very loud and kind of dirty The menu looks like it has appetizing if plain selections but the food does not taste like anything and there is so much of it on the plate that after a while you begin to feel as though you are in a fight to the death with it I have heard people say that it is diner food but it tastes more like reheated frozen dinners It looks like food and sometimes it smells like food but inexplicably it does not taste like food nnThe service is serviceable The bathrooms are appalling The salad bar is puzzling The four times I have been there I have found it rather difficult to get cashed out After which I have been surprised at how much cash I have just spent
