M. Wells Diner

We visited M. Wells Diner on a hot saturday for brunch. There was a 45-minute wait when we arrived around 1pm. Space was a bit cramped when we were seated, but that's to be expected from a place like this that is currently popular. The food was all quite greasy, but fairly tasty. The best word to describe it is 'creative'. They didn't have any typical items, so expect to be surprised.

Items Ordered

Spaghetti Bolognese Sandwich

Spaghetti Bolognese Sandwich

The spaghetti sandwich sounded very creative. It was pretty good, too! The spaghetti was formed into a patty shape and fried, so it looked like a chicken schnitzel sandwich when it came out. The spaghetti was mixed with (and topped with) a tomato sauce, which made it quite messy to eat. The spaghetti also tasted lightly seasoned. It had a nice flavor.

Egg Tomato Pot

Egg Tomato Pot

The egg tomato pot was fairly simple. It consisted of a small pot of tomato sauce that had an egg boiled inside it. It was topped with pesto, melted cheese, and a piece of a baguette. The ingredients didn't seem to create any special tastes when combined. It tasted just like you would expect if you mixed egg, tomato sauce, pesto, and cheese.
