If immaculate surroundings and fancy decor are most important to you, don't bother to visit. But if you like good, wholesome food you'll find it here. It was obvious that many of the diners were long-time patrons which to me is a good recommendation for any establishment.

I had the beef on weck , fries with gravy and an iced tea. I was in heaven. 60 years of great customer service. You will enjoy their sandwiches.

The food was okay. The part that annoyed me was that the regulars got their food before the new comers. We ordered our food waited maybe 30 min and in that 30 min 3 regulars came in after us and got their food before us and left by the time we got our food. The customer service was horrible. The lady who served us went outside for a cigarette and talked to her friends instead of cleaning the tables. She never once asked us if we wanted more coffee or orange juice. The woman cooking was eating the food and drinking and touching everything with the same glove on. We also had to go up and ask for more drinks and we had to go up and get our food. She also set the food on the bar where everyone else was sitting which is nasty as it is. The bathroom was nice though so no complaints on that one. The food was okay but the French toast was dry but the home fries were good. Overall it was an okay experience.

Breakfast and service were "okay" at best. All empty tables were dirty, yet not overly busy. Watched thin blonde waitress belittle an older obviously regular customer for not having enough cash, then throw her hands in the air when he asked for a cup of ice. Unimpressed and won't be returning.

Love the food and the atmosphere. Although everyone has a debit card, they only take cash. I would give five stars if there were more payment options aside from cash. I can understand not accepting credit cards due to the transaction fee, but there are no fees with ACH.

It's possible my wife and I showed up at the wrong time. It was our first time. We ordered a hot dog sausage and fries as well as battered mushrooms. They were out of battered mushrooms. Are meat came but no fries. We waited awhile for the fries. They were very under cooked. Ate 2 and left the plate.

Best Beef on weck in Western New York. The place is a hole in the wall but excellent grilled abs fried foods. Great beef on weck, a WNY specialty. White hots and burgers are excellent. Good breakfast too. New bathroom too! A bit pricey for the location but worth it.

This is a quite well-known locally famous place for their beef-on-wick sandwich and their chicken-cordon bleu. Pok-A-Dot in Batavia has been around for over 50 years in the same location and is a family operated business.

Great little diner. Reminded me of the old days. Had beef on weck. Was good. Juicy and flavorful. Prices here are great. Friendly staff. Cash only, but keeping costs low is a good thing. Todays special was a double cheeseburger on a hard roll with fries and a drink for only 7.95, see what I mean? lol. Could use some updating but pretty clean.
