    Quite a small restaurant with great food. Order through the QR code and the food gets delivered to your table. I had the premium milkshake hazelnut and it was delicious however it's quite small also. I had the mac and cheese and a burger with Jalapenos and chips. It wasn't too bad for the price and parking is annoying.

    Tonight was my first time at Easy Street Diner and I can 100% say it won't be the last! I'm American and finding food here in Australia that's like back home is definitely a challenge. This place was recommended to me by a co-worker so my wife and I dropped in for dinner. The vibe is relaxed and comfortable. I really enjoyed the music and the sous chef who helped us at the front was delightful! Fun, full spirited, funny and welcoming. Chicken tenders were AMAZING and so was the chicken slider! Whatever sauce is on that is what dreams are made of *chef's kiss*. My wife's favourite was the classic mac and cheese. We tried a lot out of total excitement and weren't disappointed in the least. Can't wait to go back!

    Great place to go out for dinner . Treat yourself. Service was great. And quick. And the burgers came out piping hot (first time I got a patties where the centre was hot.) .also the burger came out not sloppy and in a mess well presented was excellent. Triple was a massive burger . Great choice. Cheesy bought too. Pork belly budgets budgets Mac and cheese fries. To die for. Worth it. Everything was great. Was a nice chill atmosphere and very welcoming. Easy access and very clean . My friends and I loved this place. I left full and satisfied but not stuffed. They also have great options for Vegans.

    Good burger patties. Great flavour, well cooked. Sides are good. Try the pickle poppers and the cheezy fries royale! And American style shakes... !!! Could be better value, hence 4 rather than 5 stars. Otherwise, great burger joint.

    Absolutely delicious! Went twice in 3 days and both times the burgers were amazing. Service was excellent. Chips were sent out as an entree when we wanted them with our meal. We told the waiter who happily took them back to the kitchen and fresh chips were cooked no questions asked.

    Easy Street has stayed the course and has a good following now. Hope they stick around. Great burgers, beers and atmosphere. Try the popper burger. It has a real kick!

    Really felt as if we were back in New York! Hats off to Ash who was running the show on her own - what an amazing lady, excellent leadership skills and 5-star service - she went above and beyond! The food was super delish...Highly recommend this funky diner! We were impressed to say the least.

    Friendly staff, quick service, great portions. Really enjoyed the Southern Fried Chicken Burger and the Classic Mac & Cheese. We had them takeaway, but the vibe in the diner seemed great when we stopped in the pick up.

    Easy Street Diner delivers great American diner food at a good price point. Have been here many times over the years and so happy it’s still got a great following and still delivers the same delicious food as I remember when they first opened. Whilst it’s ‘greasy’ food, I never feel sick afterwards like you do at many American inspired diners. I assume it’s partly because they offer smaller serving sized burgers but they must also choose quality and cook things with care. Regardless it’s always a great time at ESD. Burger patties are cooked well with great flavour, salads are fresh, and everything is just delicious. Sides are quite large, which I’m sure makes up for the smaller burgers for the larger eaters. Update: have recently been again, and have to note that they were the best onion rings I’ve ever had in my life.

    Music was amazing, somehow made the food taste even better. It was like magic in my mouth. I ordered the pig Mac and it was insane. The pulled pork was so fresh and smooth. Also had the jalapeño poppers, I’ve never tasted anything like it. Will definitely be back and will be telling everyone about this hidden gem!! (Also loved the Bill Murray Mona Lisa holding the ground hog)

    First time here today and me and my partner really liked everything. Excellent burger, great service and amazing atmosphere. I truly recommend it to anyone who is keen for a tasteful burger!

  • 5/5 Carl B. 6 months ago on Google
    Great feed & I love the atmosphere. Not that I've eaten at all of diners, but it's an awesome vibe. The styling, flavour of the food and service were fantastic. I had the chicken burger, and the tenders were tender and juicy. The royal w/cheese was full of flavour, and the beef patty tasted like real beef, top-quality ingredients. Loaded fries (at though we only had the cheese ones) were super cheesy and tasty. Kids' meals were good value & the chicken wings were cooked to perfection. And the he'll fire spice 🔥, whooo. Nice. Love the place and had a delicious meal with the wife and kids who all enjoyed their food also.

    Great meal and fantastic service. Shakes were super. Restaurant was quiet but plenty of meals heading out via uber eats etc. Highly recommend. Cool place.

    I really dont wanted to do this, but we're pretty disappointed today with our meal. We're ordered online our dinner, its 10pcs hot roulette, chicken burger, cheezy fries and jalapeno peppers. After we ordered, we got text message that state we're gonna get another text to notify us when the meal ready to pick up, so we're wait, since its only 5 mins walk to the diner. 45 minutes later, we hasn't got any text yet and my partner call the diner, asking our order, and the lady told him that our order actually ready. When we picked up, our food already cold. Ok maybe next time we just order the meal on the spot. But then i opened my hot roulette wings and found that most of the wings are super tiny. Some of them are smaller than my thumb. I really do hope that when i get a chance to have a dinner there, we get decent portion of meal.

    We’ve eaten here to celebrate our American holidays over the past few years, and the first time we went was really good. The food is still pretty good but the price is way too expensive, it was around $45 per person for a burger, shake and side. There also wasn’t much going on for 4th of July. It’s good food if you have a lot of $$$.

    Truffle fries were amazing I find myself craving them often. I ordered the pulled pork burger with the mac n cheese, the burger was falling apart ended up eating the filling with a fork. Opens later than most places and service was great as we had the place to ourselves at 8pm.

  • 4/5 Simone D. 1 year ago on Google
    Loved the cheese sauce fries! Burgers were nice and juicy. Mozzarella sticks and jalapeño poppers were sadly over cooked and music was a little too loud, but I know some people like that kind of atmosphere. Friendly staff and clean restaurant. I would visit again.

    We already devoured the wings before taking this photo, but holy WOW is the food here next level. Love the sauces, burgers, chips, wings, dessert, everything. Atmosphere is so cute and vibey.

    Oh. My. God… the food here is AMAZING!!! Best Mac n cheese I’ve ever eaten. Wings are insanely good. And the burgers and drinks were amazing. Staff were so friendly and helpful and service was fast even though they were busy. Definitely recommend

    Do you want food that brings you genuine joy? If you do, eat here. This is the kind of place you'd expect to be hidden away in some alley, that all the cool kids in the know would frequent. But nope, it's just sat on a main Street waiting for you to come inside and enjoy yourself. The walls are adorned with funky art, ranging from Hip-Hop icons to silly takes on the greats, my personal favourite was the Van Gogh taking a selfie. The music was also a big plus for the ambience Easy Street has achieved, all classic rap songs that you probably know at least a handful of words to. I caught myself singing along more than once. But you came here for the important bits, the real meat of why you visit any eatery. The staff and the food. I half expected staff that would be too cool to help you. I'm sure you know the ones I'm talking about, the kind of waiter you ask for suggestions and they just generically answer the most expensive item on the menu. But this wasn't the case in any regard, our waiter was an absolute legend, friendly, helpful and had awesome suggestions. Not that you'd need suggestions. I'm half inclined to go back just because the staff was so friendly, but I couldn't only go back for that reason. Because the food was so good any time it went back it would count as going back for the eats. I had the Maple Glazed Pork-belly and it was SOOOO good, paired with a Dr. Pepper and the Fried Pickle Poppers, you're in foodie heaven. My mother-in-law swore up and down her Royal with Cheese was one of the best burgers she had and I'm inclined to believe her. My sister-in-law had the Vegan Royal and was also extremely pleased. But, the surprise winner of meals was what my little brother had, the Chicken and Waffles, I can't explain how perfectly right Easy Street Diner has gotten this. Bravo ESD, bravo. So, while I did appreciate the waiters suggestions, I know in my heart of hearts, I could close my eyes, point at the menu, and would be happy with what I got. Seriously if you're anywhere on the Gold Coast and want to eat somewhere atmospheric, something tasty, with someone who will look after you, head straight to East Street Diner.

    Such a fun place to grab a family meal on our holiday to the Gold Coast. We loved the fact you could order share dishes. Really great ambience and the food was delicious. The classic southern fried wings, loaded fries and Butterbing Sundae were delicious. Very memorable evening out with the kids. One of the highlights of our trip!

    The Belgian waffles with buttermilk chicken and bacon were sweet and rich. I ordered the suicide wings - make sure you are ready for them as they are bloody hot! The staff were super friendly, topping me up with cold water in my pitcher and provided me with a knife and fork to eat my food which was a real bonus. Highly recommended.
