According to legend, a burned-out “d” in the neon “Good Food” sign earned this Beach institution its affectionate moniker—the Goof. Away from the tourist throng, The Goof has been serving chicken balls and all-day breakfast since 1952. A 2006 reno added retro benches, scarlet wallpaper and dark wood. But the bargain menu remains the same: homemade burgers, baby beef liver sandwiches, Singapore noodles and rice pudding, along with fried rice, jar-do wings and Peking pancakes. Mains $2.25–$9.50.
