On our way home from D.C., we stopped at Metro 29 Diner in Arlington for breakfast. I loved the silver, old school diner building. As we walked through the first set of doors the manager (or at least that is who we assumed he was) graciously opened the second set of doors as he warmly greeted us. Breakfast was off to a really good start.
We ordered coffee while we looked at the menu. Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives featured the French toast on their show. It was tempting but I ended up getting eggs Benedict instead. The dish was good with beautifully poached eggs.
Chris ordered a Greek omelet. The first sign that something was wrong was when the plate arrived. The eggs and the potatoes were the same color. The severely overcooked eggs looked like scrambled eggs folded over, with ingredients cooked into the eggs instead of filling them.
Noticing that the food was uneaten, the server asked if Chris would like a box. When he explained why he did not eat the food, the server became argumentative.
As we left the restaurant, the manager once again opened the door for us and warmly thanked us for coming.
Cost for two cups of coffee, two shots of Jameson and two meals $52.80.
Worst omelet I’ve ever had in my life. Calling scrambled eggs an omelet is just horrible.
