Went here for the first time on a recommendation; returned because the food is that good. The staff is friendly, the menu extensive and the food quality is excellent. They use a house mix in their Bloody Mary which provided a nice kick. Well worth the visit!

Large menu of classic diner style comfort foods, plus greek favorites. A great place to share a few dishes among friends. Great selection of cakes if you have a sweet tooth and saved room for dessert.

We came in in the mood for breakfast. I ordered the Willie French connection as usual. We didn't know what appetizer we wanted and our waiter Jonathan recommended the Chicken Tenders, said their better then any you'll get at a sports bar and my God he was RIGHT! They were SPECTACULAR! Perfect with our Willie French connection. Their honey mustard is the best I've ever had as well. Highly recommend this place for a late night craving.

Ember, my service dog, and I recently visited Peter Pan Diner in Fort Lauderdale for breakfast. We had no issues dining here, and our server, Lana, was attentive. The diner had a charming, old-school vibe, which was quite appealing. However, the food was just decent. I ordered an omelet, only to discover it didn’t come with cheese unless you paid extra, which wasn’t mentioned by our server. The food arrived quickly, but the limited jelly options (only grape) were a bit disappointing. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, but with some room for improvement.

Grilled meat platter, spiral grilled meat and sandwiches are all recommended. It was my first time to try Greek food. It turns out that this place is open until 11pm The environment is relatively large. Friendly waiters

We were visiting Ft. Lauderdale from Canada over the holidays and came here for Christmas dinner. The food was amazing, huge portions/ well priced, service friendly and attentive. Family run business and it felt like we were with family! We ate there 4 more times in the next few days before we left. Everything we tried was delicious- chicken parm, club sandwich, brisket dinner, lamb with orzo, burgers, etc., ALL fresh and tasty! Thank you!
