5.0 of 5 stars. Their old fashioned chocolate diner cake is the best cake I have ever had. Simple and wonderful. I don't even like chocolate frosting! Love this place.

2.0 of 5 stars. The cake is DRY. So is the icing...like they left it in the stand for too long. Hot chocolate is pretty good though and it's a good place if you just need somewhere to sit and catch up.

Look Better than they taste

The desserts all look great, but I always find the cakes to be coarse and a little dry. I have eaten here 5 or 6 times. The frosting is always good but they could do much better on the cake batter. Every slice...
