“I've been to the El Cap food bank twice and both included bakery items from the bakery/diner. So grateful that you are doing this and both times they were delicious. I gave also shared items with friends and family. Will be checking out your diner also in the future.”

“American Retro has a great menu and I've liked everything that I've tried. Burgers, veggie burgers, and bakery items are all delicious. Trying to be healthy, I usually have a salad - and the chef salad is terrific.”

“Cut in half and pop it in the toaster for an amazing fresh bagel! I freeze these so I can have them at my convenience. Such a great way to savor this bagel for another time.”
