Morning Glory Diner

Fodor's Review:

The Morning Glory bills itself as a "finer diner," and offers traditional touches such as big mugs of steaming coffee (although the mugs are pewter). But the "finer" comes in the updated, wholesome versions of diner fare such as homemade catsup on every table; grilled ahi tuna with wasabi mayo on a brioche bun; thick pecan waffles with whipped peach butter; and enormous, flaky biscuits that accompany breakfast. Unless you're an early weekend riser, weekdays are a better bet. The wait for weekend brunch can be epic.
