Packaging timeless diner fare in the kitsch of the seventies helps this candy-colored eatery draw large crowds. Rays of retro sunshine pour from the flower power interior: Bright-orange Formica tables sit on linoleum floors, and the yellow walls are dotted with memorabilia from Me Decade stars like Gumby and David Cassidy. The menu playfully follows (leisure) suit with items such as “Green Eggs and Ham” (spinach pesto, scallions, smoked ham, Texas toast and hash browns) and “Not Your Mom’s Meatloaf,” served with rosemary-garlic mashed potatoes.
