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!

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!

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.

I was excited to dine here after seeing reviews about the diner on TikTok. However, I left feeling very disappointed. There was a long wait time for orders to be placed and there was only one server working an entire section on their own. We ordered the buffalo chicken egg rolls as an appetizer which was $18 but consisted of 2 egg rolls cut into two, which is not worth that price. I ordered one of the panini’s and the cheese was not at all melted. After receiving our food, the server never came back to check on us. The server disappeared for a long time and only came back to give us the check. The food overall was not worth the cost & I would not recommend dining here.
