    Amazed that one lady takes care of the tables and the cooking alone. It's Friday morning 8am.  Breakfast was perfect.  Service outstanding.

    Retro diner with a working rotary pay phone (I had to explain that to my kids). Food is always amazing and is so well priced that I'm surprised it isn't busier. It's a hidden gem for sure and I'm personally thankful for that so that when I go I always have a spot to sit.

    As indicated in the previous reviews, Russ' Dinor has a loyal clientele. The food is great, but it is the outstanding service that really sets it apart.

    I can only eat here once a year since I no longer live in Erie. However, the coffee is always ready for me as soon as I walk in the door and I can still order "the usual." It is amazing how the proprietor knows all of her regular customers' orders.

    VERY BAD SERVICE.
    I hadn't been there in years! (Because not usually in area for breakfast.)
    Went with two other individuals.

    Small, clean place. Diner style counter.

    Server did not greet upon entering. A few minutes for menu, barely looked at us and I had to say 'hello' first.

    I watched the server while she worked. Did not offer us coffee nor brought silverware when preparing silverware for another table and the counter customer who had just walked in.

    He sat at the counter and got both silverware and coffee. ..before us!

    I was done! We walked out!
    I told her, as we walked out, we waited too long and he got coffee before us!

    I gave them 2 stars only because they're local and have been in business a long time.
    I would return, though, to give them another try;  maybe she was just a bad waitress
