"It’s debatable whether or not one can actually call this a diner, so I’ll leave the deciding up to you. If so, it’s definitely the most fancy diner I’ve ever seen. Au Cheval is another Randolph Street resident, that makes its mark as “a diner-style bar and restaurant with a passion for eggs”."

As you can probably guess, they chose the latter and spent five years honing their skills with locally grown ingredients."
