Went there for the first time today and it was the worst restaurant Ive ever been to. The food was gross and soaked in grease. The fish and chicken tasted like eggs because they dont clean their grills. My girlfriend was highly disgusted with how the grease on her fries and fish glistened. After one bite she quit, because she felt like she had just put chapstick on because the grease in one bite coated her mouth and lips. The food didnt come with all of the things the menu said would come with it. They offer soup with almost everything, but had no soup menu. My chicken croissant sandwich was flat and not fluffy. The smell of the food was horrible. The service was poor. It took us five minutes to be seated when we got there, because no one even noticed we walked in. The waitress didnt even ask why we didnt eat the full bowls of soup she took away or why my girlfriend literally ate nothing off of her plate. The cooks didnt wear hair nets and one had a big, scruffy beard.There were also flies bothering us the whole time. I will never go there again and I would strongly suggest that anyone reading this should avoid going there.

Ordered rib eye steak and eggs. Eggs overcooked and steak came as a new York strip. I ate it because starving and told waitress that it was a strip and she could tell because I left the fat which was like half the steak. She said shed confirm with the cook which was surprising because the waitresse wasnt terribly young and I expected her to know the difference. She came back and said yes the only difference was that the strip was a little longer. Apparently my 20+ years of butchering are incorrect. I proceeded to tell her that they are two different parts of the cow. Seeing that I wasnt getting anywhere with explaining, I kindly stopped and said dont worry about it. I had already determined that I wasnt tipping much anyway after beiepassed up for coffee refill twice and that sealed the deal. You pay up front so I proceeded to explain to the much older waitress cashing me out and didnt get anywhere there either. Apparently the cook is a freaking expert (I could see the 18 or 19 year old kid in the kitchen). This is disappointing because this used to be a nice place. I wont be returning.

This place is fairly hit or miss. I always seem to forget my previous experience and return here. It seems like every time I go, I sucker myself into getting corned beef hash somehow believing in my mind that it will be better than before and each time it is delivered to my plate somewhat cold, mushy and lacking of any real flavor. The other food served is similar. Its not awful but not wonderful either. The service mirrors this as the staff doesnt really excel either. They take your order, bring your food, and maybe a refill. They just dont seem to have any inspiration to do more than exactly what is required.

Family went there on a Sunday at noon and the place was packed. Didnt have to wait long. The biggest problem was how loud everyone was. Normal conversation was practically impossible. The server was swamped and forgot things multiple times. The food is nothing special; mostly reheated grocery store fare. They try to make up for it by giving rather large helpings of everything.

I really like the atmosphere. The food is very reasonable price. I especially love the pies and desserts. But, I also enjoy Gyro sandwich. This has a lot of soul food! I get disgusted with seeing people tip with coins and measily tips. From years back as a waitress, those who wait on you deserve tips that represent this century, not last century.

Been there twice. Good food. The wait staff was great both times. Last time i went to pay, cashier was distant, didnt look at me. I handed her my credit card, she gave it back by placing it on the counter even as i reached for it. Practically threw my receipt at me. Must have been a bad day.

Delicious food and a fun waiter. Very dry sense of humor but he had us in stitches. Oh, and did I mention the delicious food? Get the bacon if you can. Thick cut and cooked to perfection. Yummmmmmy! Home cooked meals far better than any chain restaurant.

Love the country omelet and corned beef hash! Nice service and a nice, cozy, family feeling whenever Im there. Dont like that the hours have been reduced to 6 a.m. to 3 p.m. I used to take my family there for dinner.

Will say the food was good but the lady that took our money was so rude to my 95 year dad he trying to talk to her and she just ignored him and walked away from him that I will never return here

The only positive comment I can make is that the food was brought out shortly after ordering it. The rest of our visit was poor. Poor service. We waited 20 mins after eating for the check.

When my husband just want to chill out and have a solid, reliable meal we go to Red Apple. Its just a no-fuss diner. The waitresses are friendly and the place is nice and clean.

The service was quick and the coffee was alright, but the Italian beef sandwich was very bland. Would recommend for other things, but avoid that sandwich.

Good place to sit down and talk. I dont think the food is anything special but its still a good place to go, especially for breakfast.
