Review from David M.

3.5 stars.
Ever want to enjoy your breakfast special adjacent to the Windex aisle? Now's your chance!
This is an odd place for a diner, though the concept of a lunch counter inside a "5 and Dime" (like Kresge's or Woolworths) is quite traditional. This is a bit different, however, as UFO is mostly a large convenience-style store, well off the beaten track on Niagara St. Face one way, and you get that lunch counter vibe...turn a few degrees and check out the vacuum cleaner bags.
That being said, the food was pretty good. Large eggs and tasty home fries complimented the above-average coffee, and my bacon-loving friends loved the bacon! The server was friendly and attentive.
Check out this unique, casual place. It's worth a trip.Listed in: Breakfast places, Diners, Greasy Spoons and…

UFO used to be excellent. Now it is so-so. You'd roll onto the counter seat and Zambia or "mama" would know your fave. It was always fresh and delicious. New owners though and she doesn't work as often. It's not got the freshness of old, but for a plate of fries and souvlaki with a cripsy iceburg salad and rice it's great. Good Tatziki. Good toasted western and ample helpings of breakfasts at a very good price. My last creme cheese bagel was slathered in cheese, but the bagel was burned a bit. The prices are great. It's a nice counter to have in the hood. I wouldn't go outta' my way anymore to eat there, but it's good simple food, if the tomatoes aren't the plumpest.
