A new diner owned by the creator of Everybody Loves Raymond has become the hottest spot in Los Angeles.
The Larchmont eatery, named Max & Helen's after owner Phil Rosenthal's parents, has been flooded with food bloggers, celebrities and loyal Raymond fans since opening its doors in late October.
When Daily Mail tried to get a table for two last Saturday, we were informed that the waitlist was seven hours long and that they weren't taking reservations.
Together, with head chef Mason Royal, the trio have come up with a menu of 'elevated' diner food that includes a $17 waffle that has already been branded 'one of the best waffles in L.A.'

If we don't meet, I can share the recipe. I took the waffle iron with me on family beach vacations several times and we'd have a waffle morning in our rental. Then everybody got all hyperaware of carbs and sugar, so there went that

Not me, I hated that crappy show.

No place is worth a seven hour wait, I don't care who the chef/owner/head honcho is. If the wait is longer than an hour, it ain't worth it.
