The particularity of this place is that you will never find the door closed. Since 1924, the institution has never ceased its activity, day and night. Most servers, exclusively male, have been there for 20 years or more, and are an integral part of the site. A kind of large family canteen, with all that this entails positive: a good classic kitchen, served generously… It follows naturally that the Pantry has some records of consumption: for example, 20 steers per day are needed to satisfy the demand for steaks! Moreover, the menu changes every day. Their motto: Never closed, never without a customer, "Never closed, never without a customer".

So we got in line and waited almost an out for what turned out to be a very disappointing experience. When we got inside, we sat down and the waiter came pretty quickly. He was a really nice guy and got our order. The thing is, he brought the wrong order. When we finally sorted out that mess, we started eating, The eggs ( the ones cooked as had requested) and pancakes were decent but the potatoes were pretty bad.We asked our waiter for crispy potatoes but he came back with oily, potatoes that were soft and had no flavor. We also ordered prime rib that was hard (we asked for medium well) and the worst part is the meat tasted “old” and not fresh and it was also flavorless . Even my kids wouldn’t eat it.
The bathrooms stunk, there were used tissues and toilet paper everywhere, and the sink and toilet was a mess.
I think there is potential to do so much better but our experience didn’t reflect that.
Really disappointing experience.
