Always consistently great food and friendly service. It’s kid friendly and has good parking along the street.

2022: First time back since it changed from Sharon's. My meal was okay-I opted for one of their signature sandwiches, and it just didn't live up to the description in the menu. Service was good. Prices were good. Location is good with plenty of parking.
But what truly struck me as unprofessional was the smoking of the staff out the back door. Probably wouldn't have been an issue if the door were closed, or the wind was blowing the opposite way, but this day, I truly did not want to have cigarette smoke with my lunch.
2023: This was my last time visiting this establishment. All the doors were closed this time and the restaurant smells like a chain smoker lives there-it permeates the place.
Adding to my discomfort are the flies in the window and landing on me.
The menu did not reflect what was available to eat. Many items were not available. There were NO desserts as they had sold out earlier.
Here's a restaurant hack: if you serve your soft drinks from a fountain you'll probably have to choose between Pepsi or Coke products, but if you serve from individual cans there's NO excuse to not offer both!
The price of their special of the day is really good: $6.00! The size of the item reflected the price.
The waitress was friendly and helpful.

Was there for breakfast and the bacon was burnt and the eggs looked like they were fried in bacon grease

First time since it switched ownership and we weren’t impressed. My clams were mushy, my granddaughters chicken strips were burnt. It wasn’t because it was busy because we were the only ones there. Love that they do their own fries but leaving to long under hot fish and they were mushy! I’m sure their ironing the wrinkles out and we’ll go back again. One thing that’s awesome is the extended menus. I always found the menu so limited! It’s great to see options! The staff were great. Top rate. It’s always hard staring out. Especially when u buy a restaurant during Covid.

Had breakfast at R&D Diner Nov. 15th. Three of us asked for eggs over easy and all three of us got eggs well done and had a smoked looked from the grill. The grill fried potatoes had very few onions. Have ate here many times when it was Sharon's Place and a couple of times since it changed to R&D and always enjoyed the food. Very disappointed yesterday.

Unfortunately the food was bland and though the service was good, the entire restaurant reaks of cigarette smoke for some reason which made it very hard to stay and eat. I don't think i will be returning.
