Editorial Review for 5 & Diner – by Nancy Hunter
In Short
Expect 1950s nostalgia in the form of classic diner fare, Elvis Presley juke tunes and neon, chrome and red-vinyl booths. Choose from the hot meat loaf sandwich, spaghetti or one of the several blue-plate and senior specials. Families flock for the basic menu and '50s kitsch, and everyone flocks for the milkshakes and malts.

From the time Bob Dole made a publicized early morning campaign stop here just before the 1996 election, the food and service at this location has been up and down like a yo-yo. It remains in our dining rotation primarily cuz the kids enjoy the diner atmosphere, coin jukebox and the occasional shake - and it's not as bad as it was. Breakfasts are a pretty safe bet and are served all day. I generally opt for an omelet or a club sandwich, and stay away from heavy fare like burgers and steaks. Open very late (24 hrs??). Good for kids who've never been inside a diner or if it's late and nothing else is open. Beyond that, I'd look to eat elsewhere in the abundant Camelback/16th street restaurant market.
Pros: Inexpensive, kids dig the '50s
Cons: Inconsistent food, Inconsistent service
