Tucked away on Fair Oaks Ave, Fair Oaks Diner offers a charming throwback to classic diner vibes! 🍳 I visited for breakfast and delighted in the huevos rancheros - spicy and satisfying. The French toast was fluffy, and the chili was a great surprise for takeout.

The service was friendly, and even though it's cash only, the prices are unbeatable for the area. The atmosphere is cozy and family-friendly, making it an ideal spot for casual dining.

Can't wait to return for more comfort food... 😊
