“ Very surprised at how much I enjoyed my food! The place is literally a whole in the wall but was very good. Very friendly and welcoming...I had to leave a good review, that man was working too hard to keep all his customers happy! ”
“ I have been driving by this place for almost 40 years, but was always heading to the airport and never had the time to stop. The "Big Breakfast" is indeed big. A great breakfast value for $10. Three eggs, hash browns, toast, two pieces of ham and three pancakes. MMDI first opened in 1960. Because of staffing difficulties, it is no longer open 24/7. While the dining room (currently) closes at 7:30PM, carry-out is available until 4AM. Service was prompt and attentive. Why not 5-stars? The dining room needs some tender loving care. The vinyl cushion in my booth had a large rip on the cushion. The drywall was seriously scuffed, exposing the gypsum. ”
“ Always Great food, and you'll never leave hungry! Adnan the owner always makes sure you leave with a Full belly! ”

“ It's a nice little neighborhood diner with good, good food. I've been here for breakfast twice, and each time have had a nice experience. The food is good, quick to get to the table and the coffee cup is kept filled. I had one of the specials with eggs, pancakes and bacon - it was really good. Two thumbs up! ”
