Homerun! Good formilur food and then some. I love a good monta Cristo and they have it. Clean establishment and quality particular management. Cheerful staff, attentive and thorough. Relaxed environment with windows to look out if your date is just not engaging.
The Chalet is a classic. It’s one of those old-school diners where you always know what you’re getting—solid food, fast service, and a relaxed, no-frills vibe. The menu’s huge, breakfast is served all day, and the portions are generous without being over the top. The staff is friendly and efficient, even when it’s busy. It’s the kind of place where they remember you if you come in more than once. Whether you’re stopping in for pancakes, a burger, or just a cup of coffee, The Chalet is always a dependable, delicious choice.
Service is fast, very friendly and the food was good. Had the patty melt, meat was cooked perfectly with a good flavor, caramelized onion and fully melted cheese. Bread was just okay. Had a salad on the side, iceberg lettuce with plenty of options for salad dressing.
It's simply a great, very old mom and pop restaurant. The deco has never been updated. That's what helps give it its charm. You will see older adults, quite conversations taking place. I just love this peaceful little restaurant.
Great place! I had the Customers Favorite. "Mess" something. I forgot the name but it was a biscuits and gravy with potatoes bacon. It was delicious! There was a lady. I forgot her name. She's Hispanic and has amazing customer service. Felt very welcomed and left better than satisfied.
Great breakfast spot! Good chili, the relleno was on point, and the pancakes were good too. As a bonus, our food was up hot and fast. We have eaten here a few times and are never disappointed.
