    The Good: The food was tasty and portion sizes were reasonable. The Bad: The food was overpriced for what we were given - tempura seafood is VERY heavily coated and deep fried. The other dishes I did not taste myself but other party members had the same opinion that their food was not really as appetizing as the fancy description. The prices reflected the fancy descriptions but the food didn't really deliver. The older lady who waited on us was in training and was inattentive and a bit rude. When she was taking our order she was obviously hard of hearing because I, right beside her, said and pointed to what I want on the menu and she still didn't get it. She loudly asked her trainer what other people ordered too, like it was a task for her to have to ask again. She never refilled our drinks, only the nice lady training her did. We had a larger party and the wait was a bit long for our food, and then after we asked the older lady for the check, I caught the her just staring at us and not making any move to get said checks for us. Eventually the nice trainer lady came and asked us how to split the bill and promptly came back to us. By then we were late for the game we were attending after, but at least not by much. (1.5 hours from sit down to check, 8 people) The UGLY: I found a bit of metal stuck to one of my shrimp tempura. It was a small sliver of aluminum foil or something similar by the looks of it but never should have made it to a customer in that state. I almost bit down on it. I didn't mention it because we were already running late and I didn't want to cause a fuss. Pictures included the offending bit and my "tempura". TL;DR the food not what was advertised, and a bit overpriced. The taste was okay, nothing was inedible, but it wasn't what we expected. Portions were good. The service we received was two ends of the spectrum (one horrible waiter and one good), and I ended up with a metal bit in my food.

    This is definitely my go to diner in my area. This is about the 3rd or 4th time I've been there always happy with the food. The servers are always pleasant and efficient. Marley took care of me today very efficient checked on me when she needed to and my steak was cooked to perfection.

    Thursday dinner used the buy 1 get 1 50% off coupon. I ordered the fish and chips. 4 good size pieces of cod. Food was very good, fast and service was excellent. I ordered the French onion soup appetizer and that was good too.

    The lasagna was good it had plenty of meat in it however it needs extra marinara sauce. Once I ask for a side marinara sauce I was told I would have to buy a side of bread in order to get marinara sauce at $2.95. I order the marinara sauce and was less than 2 ounces. 2nd meal: Daily special fried pork chop two sides. The fried pork chop was great the two sides were sautéed spinach and they’re red skin mashed potatoes. The Redskin mashed potatoes were OK the side of white gravy made them better. The sauté spinach was very bland and no flavor. Cocktail: The Long Island iced tea was very good Restroom If you have to use the restroom I would suggest you do so before getting here. I’m driving to QT to use the bathroom

    I recently went here for the first time. The staff were all very friendly here. I went around lunchtime. It was busy, but it was not overwhelming or unpleasant. The atmosphere was upbeat and pleasant. The pricing is reasonable. I ordered soup, a wrap, and a slice of cheesecake just to try everything out. I was satisfied with everything I ordered. I will definitely be coming back here again. If you are looking for a reasonable price and place to grab lunch, this is one of those places. They have a large variety menu. If you visit here for a meal, there will be plenty of choices.

    I saw this place on the way to Walmart one day and said I have to try it out to my wife and son. I was not disappointed. The place has a great atmosphere to it that feels familiar and different at the same time if that can make sense. It was not bad at all. Everyone from start to finish was extremely nice to us and the visit was pleasant 😁. The decor about the place speaks to me like a old diner with a modernist vibe to it and it's perfect. The menu was vast and had so many great options available that me and my wife has a hard time choosing between multiple dishes and side dishes. I had the Texas burger and man was that thing delicious, cooked to perfection! My wife has the Caboreba Pasta and she loved it. They serve breakfast lunch and dinner and we went through dinner so now I am curious about the breakfast portion. I seen others posting pictures and it looks great! All in all this place is a small diner with a huge impact to it's customers. It's a place to have a meal and talk about things or a place to have breakfast and go on about your day. Small places like this make the biggest impact in a city or town and this place seems like it's a staple of the community. The customer service here I could go on and on about because it was so excellent. Keep up the Good work everyone! When you walk in the front door you will be greeted with a variety of desserts and man let me tell you! They are delicious. I had a slice of the Key lime pie and my wife has the blue velvet cake. These slices are massive and they are so good you will regret not getting a slice of take for your trip back home or heading to your next destination! Thank you everyone!

    The Diner is a great place for breakfast. We had the Belgium waffles that came with eggs and sausage. We also had the french toast. Both were very good. They get busy on a Saturday or Sunday, but they sit/serve you quickly. Our waitress was very sweet. They also have a great dessert menu with fresh cakes. So good!

    This restaurant has a great selection of food at a reasonable price (burgers, sandwiches, classic home cooked meals). We had the California Burger and the pot roast both of which were well prepared and seasoned. Portions were slightly on the smaller side. Service was friendly.

    Usually this place is great. They have good chicken parmesan, good breakfast, and good prices. However, they're hamburgers need work. The fries were overcooked. I would also really like the steak fries back. My medium burger came out medium well. I added extra caramelized onions and they weren't caramelized and were sparse considering I paid extra. The bacon was very greasy that gave it an unpleasant taste. I kind of regretted not going with my usual chicken parmesan.

    Decent place for lunch. It was a bit more upscale than I was expecting from a place with Diner in its name. They were short handed so service suffered a bit. Burger was good, but a little undercooked for my liking.

    No photos but the spinach mushroom Florentine omelette was certainly worth a photo ... especially considering how enticing the redskin 🥔 home fries look next to it.

    Have come here twice for brunch. Service is always prompt and friendly, however the food was very salty both visits.

  • 5/5 Rob W. 2 years ago on Google
    Southwest Omelet with Grits and Biscuit - was delicious and right off the stove. Everything was served warm. The server was terrific. I need to stop here again next time I'm in town.

  • 5/5 Frannie R. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 William C. A. 1 year ago on Google
    Stopped here to grab dinner and wasn't disappointed. Had the Surf and turf and the steak and shrimp were well prepared and very tasty. Steak was a decent cut a little fatty and cooked a little past my request but to be fair I did eat after the shrimp and it will continue to cook as it was served piping hot! All in all tasted great. My wife ordered the Chicken Carbonara and it was tender and cheesy and tasted amazing, liked it more then my steak. She ordered with vegetables vs noodles. Never had this way before but again was quite good. Waitress was super attentive and kept the soda refills coming and made sure all was to our liking. Would visit here again.

  • 5/5 Jeremy G. 11 months ago on Google
    The food here is really good. But lately, we have found ourselves going here for dessert. The cakes and pies are amazing, and the slices are huge! We get a cup of their coffer and a slice of whatever looks good. Oh, and the coffee I good too! Make this your next after dinner dessert stop.

  • 4/5 Jessica 1 year ago on Google
    I went in for a quick breakfast. I had coffee & ordered the Greek Omelet. Everything was delicious. Waitress was fast & friendly. It wasn't very busy. But it is dark inside. Could definitely use some more lightning for a diner.

  • 4/5 Deron S. 1 year ago on Google
    We went here for the first time to dine in during Gwinnett Burger week. We ordered the BBQ Sriracha Burger. This burger was very good. I also had baked potato soup which was good. Our service was also very good and we came at a great time as there were not a lot of people in the diner at the time we dined

  • 5/5 Chris Y. 11 months ago on Google
    Very good food and the server ladies were fabulous! The breakfast we had was top notch. The only thing I would say they should improvement was the lighting in the restaurant ,since it was a bit dim and give the vibe that it was dark. Some bright reset lights and shiny tables would do wonders ✨️ 😌

  • 5/5 Melissa S. 10 months ago on Google
    We came in for Lunch today… Josh was our server. He was awesome. We had the Bruschetta and Calamari as an appetizer.. It was SO good. I had the Blue Cheese Burger.. my husband had the Philly. Everything was AMAZING..

    I am going to base this review on my previous visit, because when we went there last night they were already closed. This was at 8:00pm. Their website said that they would be open until 10:00pm. Needles to say we were very disappointed. However on a previous visit the food was very good And the service was good. The menu was extensive and the desserts were fabulous. Overall it was good diner food, reminded me of home (New Jersey) where diners are everywhere. We will visit again when they are open.

    Enjoy the food and the staff. Particularly pleased that the chef makes accommodations for my daughter with allergies. Also do hope mgmt is taking measures to protect staff. Last visit an older gentleman was there hacking up a cough and looked like he was coughing in the napkin.

  • 5/5 TeeJay B. 3 years ago on Google
    Today was my second time going. I absolutely LOVE THIS PLACE!!! They have great breakfast food! I've never had the lunch or dinner food. They have you seated at every other table due to COVID-19. The waitresses are friendly and thoughtful. You can't go wrong eating here. They cook the breakfast food exactly the way you want it as well. Also, they have AMAZING CAKES!!! OMG!!! You have to try a slice! They're moist and DELICIOUS and honestly I really don't eat cake often.....🤷🏾‍♀️ maybe one to two times per year. Anyway, go check them out!!! You'll be happy you did! By the way, the prices are perfect! 👌🏾

    This is a great 'round the way option. I had the filet mignon and salmon dinner with mashed potatoes and asparagus. Not your typical diner food but definitely delicious!! We will certainly return!

  • 5/5 Marlane S. 3 years ago on Google
    French onion soup was the best I've ever had.

  • 4/5 Timothy Y. 3 years ago on Google
    Solid diner that we really like to visit for Thanksgiving or just a nice meal out. It's been a few years since we've last been and it looks like they take precautions for COVID fairly well. We had a nicely separated table. Kinda miss the bread and olive oil we used to get some years ago. The pork chops and salmon were great, as was the prime rib although it was a bit too chewy (ordered and got med rare). Overall a good experience.

  • 5/5 LaJon W. 3 years ago on Google

    Great food, prices and service. Everyone in our party loved their dish. One didn't realize that it had tomatoes, which they are allergic to. They quickly cooked up a new dish. I was super impressed!
