A traditional American diner, serving, among a wide variety of menu items, breakfast food all day long. Want to try something new? They have a special every day that is most of the time not something on menu (usually under $3). Although breakfast is served all day, come before 11am and enjoy their special breakfast pricing . Even after 11, their food is more than reasonably priced.
In March 2016, the hours are every day 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., except for Sundays 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.
Owner Benny Shehaj himself works the cash register.

- Breakfast of champions: Michael Phelps' appetite is famous in Ann Arbor, WZZM 13, 8/14/2008
It was easy to tell when swimmer Michael Phelps was in the midst of a particularly grueling training period. The door to Benny's Family Dining, on South Industrial Highway in Ann Arbor, near the University of Michigan campus, would swing open around 7 a.m. And in would walk Phelps, still groggy after the day's first workout, sliding into a booth near the front of the diner - away from the smokers seated in back.
