West Taghkanic Diner

This classic diner is spanking-clean and like-new: boomerang-pattern Formica table tops, baby-blue upholstered stools that match the blue tiles in the floor and arched blue ceiling; and a long counter where you can sit and watch the waitress mix an egg cream. Stand-out meals include the hot turkey sandwich, stout chili, and hot hamburgers with mashed potatoes and gravy.
