First time back at this place in a while, and wow—what a win! We don’t go out to eat much anymore since we have a 4-year-old, and dining out can be pricey and a bit chaotic with a young kid. But this visit was hands down a 10 out of 10. The food was plentiful, high-quality, and reasonably priced. But what really made it for us was the kindness of the staff. A lovely lady came over and surprised our daughter with a small vanilla milkshake—her very first one! That thoughtful gesture sealed the deal for us. It was such a sweet touch, and we really appreciated the extra effort to make her feel special. Definitely left us smiling. We’ll absolutely be back!

This diner is one of my favorites on Long Island! The food is always so great. The quality of the food feels a lot better than most diners I’ve been to. We’ve been here a few times already and have always gotten the server, Melissa. She’s the best! She gives great recommendations and is always so sweet and attentive. Although this diner is about a 30 min drive, we always take the trip. Definitely come here and ask for Melissa!!! Go after 9pm for half off apps!

This place is fantastic! Best service of Long Island and food is just as amazing!! We especially love coming in on Wednesday mornings because Dawn is the best waitress ever !!

Let me start off by saying, do not listen to the negative reviews, try this diner out! With that being said, it IS diner food, don’t come in expecting Michelin star food and leave them a negative review. Little cozy diner off the road with great diner food. The waiter we had was super chill, had a quick laugh over the size of the food when I ordered. Smiled and laughs are definitely was a bonus. The other staff was super friendly as well. Definitely coming back here whenever we’re back in Lindenhurst!

Cleanest diner I’ve ever been in! Staff friendly, service prompt. They allow you your space to eat without constantly checking on you! When you are done, wander to the front to pay your bill! Food was hearty- eggs and homefries and sausage- can’t go wrong here. Coffee could’ve been better, just a standard brew.

I order takeout once a week from here. Very good food always fresh. On Fridays order the seafood bisque. Very tasty great soup.

Good old school Long Island Greek diner. My Jack Daniel's glazed meatloaf was very good. The Caesar salad was super. Good cheesecake. The grilled cheese was described as 'tasty'. The Greek wrap was mentioned as 'exactly what I wanted!'

Came here for lunch and dinner on separate occasions and would be eager to come back for breakfast as well. As it is naturally a diner staple. Atmosphere is exactly the traditional diner look you come to expect, plenty of bright colors and chrome, kicks you right in the nostalgia. But nothing is actually "old" either which is a plus. Both times I've gone staff have been friendly and helpful but just a touch slow to attend to my groups, but not egregiously so. Parking is pretty easy in the attached lot, plus some options on the side streets nearby if the place is really hopping. Food is very tasty and like any good, has a million choices to choose from. I've tried their Buffalo chicken caesar wrap, the chicken bacon ranch wrap, and the beef gyro. The gyro and the Buffalo Caesar were my favorite. Shout out to their fries though! Normally diner fries are nothing to write home to mom about, but their's are nice and crispy, and dare I say are nearly a highlight of the meal. One thing to appreciate as well, although I'm not vegan, they do offer a lot of vegan options, way more than any diner I've been to before. I was also very tantilized by their delicious sounding dessert options, but I controlled myself and saved it for another day. Prices are great for what you get, as things have got more expensive recently, the menu has managed to stay reasonable, making the bang for your buck feel a lot better.

We have been ordering from this diner for the past 6 years since we moved here and the quality has gone down and the prices have gone up astronomically! The deviled egg with crab literally had 5 half pieces of egg and we saw no crab meat for $18.95!!!! Eggs are .67 cents a DOZEN at Restaurant Depot!! They tasted like plain deviled eggs. The Baja steak bowl at $24.95 mentioned nothing about being spicy and literally burned my mouth and lips off. I enjoy spicy food but this had no flavor, just extreme heat. My husband always gets the Brooklyn’s finest sandwich which he said was ok but not like it used to be. Over $70 for those 3 items delivered and 2 out of 3 were very disappointing. I hope somehow these reviews will help the owners bring back this place to what it used to be because the last 3 times we ordered were not great and we are about to find somewhere else to go. And I would like to mention the locally hired delivery people are very missed…just added a personal touch to the business.

I had such high hopes for this diner because I was so hungry one late night after visiting my friend nearby. I went in around 10 and I didn’t enjoy my meal at all. I ordered crispy street tacos as an appetizer and the only thing that tasted good was the salsa on top. I ordered stuffed- shrimp with a side of cream spinach and mashed potatoes. The mashed potatoes were ok and the cream of spinach was gross. It was full of cream and maybe three pieces of spinach mixed in. I couldn’t eat it. I ordered chicken noodle soup and it was so gross and bland. It tasted like someone hit some water and threw in some veggies inside. There was barely any chicken in the soup. Nothing could save it. The only thing that tasted good was my husband’s steak which was well seasoned and delicious. They served us nasty old disgusting watery rice. We told them server and she apologized but she couldn’t do anything. Please, I know it’s late at night but it’s important to serve safe food at this hour. Please consider adding seasoning to your food as well. I gave three stars because the server was nice and filled our drinks without us asking and was kind.

When you come to a Diner there is an expectation of quick, efficient, and simple service. Our experience the tonight was not that. I’d like to preface my review with the fact that my food was really good. Where I found dismay was the service. We were seated at 8pm as the evening service was slowing. Our waitress took our orders by 8:10-8:15 the latest. Our entrees (simple food) didn’t hit our table until 8:50 at which time we were informed that they accidentally gave away one of our parties entrees away to the wrong person and that the omelette would be even longer of a wait (over 10 minutes). Nothing was comped and it we were given a half assed apology by our server. We were bringing friends for their first time and this is very likely their last. It’s a shame because I enjoyed this diner prior to today.

Ordered Turkey dinner thru door dash. Delivery was great, food was not. Mashed potatoes were not good..no taste, turkey was sliced really thick and dry, and I’m not sure what they were thinking with the stuffing ..it was mush with 2inch pieces of plain bread scattered within and around it. Sorry, this was a fail. 2 stars for the corn and soup

I left underwhelmed. I tried the maple bacon pancakes, a build-your-own Angus burger with sautéed onions and bacon, and an Oreo shake with banana. Everything sounded great on paper, but the execution fell flat. The quality of the food didn’t live up to the hype—definitely not “high-quality” as they claim in response to other reviews. Their products/ingredients are not satisfactory The pancakes were obnoxious to the point it was too much to consume and , the burger was forgettable, and the milkshake was average at best—nothing you couldn’t get at any typical spot. For the price, you’d expect something a bit more memorable. The lack of care or effort is noticeable. I wouldn’t recommend it unless you’re nearby and need a quick bite. Otherwise, it’s just another diner with inflated expectations.

What happened to the food and the place. \nWe ordered beef barley soup, I am warning you don't order it. It looks disgusting and tastes even worse. Looked like dog food, the beef was slimy and tough.…

Showed up sometime around midnight this past Saturday night/early Sunday morning. Was really jonesing a plate of cheese fries with gravy. We were seated and the busboy gave us our water and menus. We then proceeded to wait, and wait, and wait a little longer for a waiter or waitress who never came over to take our order. After about fifteen minutes of this nonsense we got up and left. On the way out the door I noticed two things. One was that the diner was a little busy, but two was that there was only one waitress to handle the entire diner. I can't say anything bad about the food in this place because I never got a chance to sample it and I can't knock the one waitress who had to hold down the fort all by herself. I can say that management is horrible for allowing all these things to happen (one waitress to handle a semi busy diner all by herself on a Saturday night). I probably would not ever go back to this diner based solely on this one experience.

Been coming here for years. Lately quality has gone down the drain along with customer service. I always order the same thing from this diner...a Caesar wrap cold with chicken cutlet. But 8 out of 10 times this is what the wrap looks like(their fries are horrible so I stopped ordering them with the wrap). I decided to bring it up when I went last night to pick up my order. After showing the picture to an employee I was met with hostility and an answer that was ridiculous. Claiming that because I request the wrap to not be pressed there's no way to wrap it. It's funny because I come here a lot and in the mix of bad wraps I've also gotten some really good ones. It's also the only place that apparently cannot make a wrap because I order from many places and this is the only restaurant that can't get it right. I got no apology no respect as a customer. Since their standard for quality is so low and this is an acceptable wrap by their standards to provide to the customer it was the last time I stepped foot in there.

Three strikes and you are out! I’m not one to post a one star ⭐️ review but this is important to me as I will not be returning. In the recent months their food has really gone downhill and their prices are astronomical. They are the only diner in the Lindenhurst area as the Lindencrest and SouthBay have both closed and it’s very unfortunate that we are all subjected to terrible food, Especially if it’s a To Go Order. Chicken Parm with French fries…. They drenched the Fries in sauce that they were so soggy they were inedible. The air fryer couldn’t fix that mess and in the garbage they went. Turkey Club… Fatty turkey and uncooked bacon. In the garbage again. Chicken Fingers- So over cooked we actually returned them and got a new order bc they were hard and dry. Sorry for the one 🌟 review but the cooks really need to step it up because if you do choose to go there, Stick with the soup!
