We'd had our eye on this place for a while, and came in for lunch when the sushi place across the way didn't have a table for us. I thought it was good.Fried chicken: the chicken was piping hot and tender. The skin was crisp and the batter light, though heavily flavored with herbs. There was a definite tang to it, perhaps it was buttermilk? It doesn't stack up to, for example, Popeye's, but it was pretty good American-style fried chicken, which is tough to come by.

Mashed potatoes: the potatoes were flavorful, though overly lumpy. The "gravy" was tomato-based but OK. B
Reuben: my wife's favorite sandwich is the Reuben, and we haven't been able to find one in HK until now. She gives it A-, but would give it an A if it had more sauerkraut. A-
Fries: I found them a little flavorless, mushy, and overly "potato"-y, if a potato can be that. The ketchup was Del Monte. Why??? C+
Overall, we had a great experience, and will definitely come back, as many of the menu items seemed worth a try. Before moving here, I lived in the land of diners (Jersey) and it's nice to have some of that same experience here. A-
