“We named it Gregory’s Diner as an homage to my grandfather who had emigrated to the U.S. in 1958 and owned his own restaurant diner and my grandparents’ picture is hanging right on the wall as you enter,” said Anastasia.
The Vagabond Hotel is a historic property with a ’50s vibe. Anastasia says their concept is to honor the building’s history. Even the pool bar outside has been upgraded and brightened to welcome diners and guests.
“We wanted something that felt elevated and pays tribute to diners of the ’50s and also honoring the architecture of the property bringing a handsome feel to it. Hence, its name Gregory’s, feeling tailored and a bit more bistro,” she said.
“I grew up in New Jersey so I’m very familiar with the diner culture,” said Executive Chef and co-partner Roael Alcudia.
