What Kurt C doesn't like about Paula's Diner:
I arrived at 11:30 am, they were out of specials already. I had hamburger steak, mashed potatoes, pintos w/cornbread. Potatoes were instant…bland at best. I got A1 sauce to help the hamburger steak View all feedback. What User likes about Paula's Diner:
Parking is a bit narrow, but a crowded parking is a sign. Food was good inexpensive, well prepared, hot and tasty. Limited staff, had empty glasses for most meals, but with signaling could get refills. View all feedback.
