Grandma's Diner - Essa

Had a good lunch one day and their souvlaki is great. The menu is huge with lots of variety. You can have breakfast and souvlaki!

I don't understand why Sandy's never has a wait because they have fresh ingredients and delicious dishes.

My fiancé has lived in Angus for many years and he has never been here.(Not sure how long it's been open) The outside isn't "fancy" and I will let you know that the inside isn't either. That being said, I want to say that because I'm from a small town, I appreciated the authenticity of a tried and true diner that has a beautiful heart. The service is amazing.
