In Short
Despite a retro turquoise facade recognizable in multiple films, this Santa Monica diner doesn't let fame get to its head. Hipsters play supporting roles to longstanding regulars, who keep the orange booths and blue bar stools crowded. Service is quick and efficient; waitresses drop checks mid-meal. The straight-up diner menu leads with egg combos, hot cakes and waffles. Quarter-pound burgers and grilled cheese sandwiches are popular lunch choices. Nightly dinner specials include breaded pork loin, filet of sole or deep-fried chicken.
