Where's there a good diner on the eastside?

I'm talking classic, not classy. Hopefully near Bellevue. Does such a thing exist? Help!

    The Pancake Corral on Bellevue Way. Probably the best on the Eastside.

    Eli - its really more of a Deli, but your Jewish disposition might appreciate 'Gilberts' in Old Town Bellevue on Main. They have really good Matzo Ball soup and don't miss out on the cappuchino cake.

    Issaquah Café' is the best. Good service and good food. I totally love that place, and used to go there when ditching class in HS.

    Van's Kitchen on NE 85th Street, just west of 132nd. (Rose Hill). Definitely. Only open until 3 p.m., though.

    Second the vote for Pancake Corral. Definitely NOT Original Pancake House, if the one in Crown Hill is anything to go by. I haven't been to Li'l Jon's, which sounds pretty terrific.

    Lil' Jon Restaurant in the Eastgate area, just off I-90.   I can't say it's good, but it's classic. I go to this diner for breakfast when I'm waiting for the Subaru dealership to change my oil.  The car and I each get a fresh infusion of grease.

    Lil Jon's. The perfect greasy spoon. It is a throwback kind of place.

    12th Ave Cafe in Issaquah by Target. Issaquah Cafe is good but their service is notoriously slow.

    A classic diner in Bellevue? I'm not even sure there's one in Seattle.
