Great late-night diner! My jet lagged west coast friends and I were looking for somewhere to get a quick and easy bite to eat, and this place didn’t disappoint. The folks who got omelettes said they were great, and my chili and fries were pretty standard diner fare as well. We all walked away paying a total of $90 (18% grat. included for parties over 5), which, for 5 people in Alexandria felt pretty good, honestly. It’s nice to know there’s somewhere open so late for a solid bite to eat! Atmosphere was, again, pretty par for course as far as diners go, though I did feel it was a bit starkly bright. The staff was pretty neutral but attentive, and the food came out at a reasonable rate. I do wish I had the room for dessert, as their pies looked pretty solid!

Great diner experience! Everything you would expect from an old fashioned diner, they don’t make them like this anymore! I can only speak for the breakfast meals, they were delicious and what to expect from a good diner! I will definitely come back here on another visit! If I was a local, I would be a regular customer!! Easy walk from the metro rail and bus station.

You almost can't find a place like this in a location like this. Very original, very bright, very clean and nearly nostalgic. We came for the chicken fried steak - everyone who serves this serves their own version, and so does Bob and Edith's. Theirs is a good variation on the standards, with a much thicker gravy and slightly heavier breading on the steak. However, a good combo, with attentive service to boot. Worth the stop, places like this are rare and something to look for.
