About

The circa-1927 diner serves a sprawling all-day menu, with oversized breakfast burritos, pancakes and house green chile among its signatures. Vegan choices include plant-based chorizo and the High Maintenance Vegetarian stack with beans, potatoes, avocado and vegetables; ask staff to confirm ingredients and preparation, since the menu’s vegan labeling has drawn criticism.
