Sandi's Diner

Me and my wife had dinner here and it was amazing. I can believe we didn't know this place was here. I had the chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes and onion rings. My wife had chicken fried chicken with mashed potatoes and corn. Both meals were so delicious with lots of flavor. Even the the chicken was juicy and tender. I will definitely be coming for back more. Plus the decorations brings me back to the oldies but goodies days.

The food here is really good, a fair selection of different types of burgers and typical diner food. I specifically went because I wanted to try the funnel cake fries, which were good but after the novelty of it, you realize that a traditional funnel cake is better. I would say maybe half my orders were for the novelty. I would only suggest this if you are sharing with three or more people. We splurged for the hotrod toy for the kids meal. Spoiler alert, if you have a toddler aka toy breaker, you will want to skip this. It's the cute little paper cars that are used for decorations on the center of the table...but definitely not the best for toddlers. Non-destructive children should find them as pretty cute distractions. Everyone enjoyed the food, got the breakfast plate for my son who then decided he didn't want breakfast which is...typical. I would say that if you have toddlers it may not be the best place to take them unless they have a great deal of willpower to stay in their seats with all of the old decorations around the place. Mine...does not. He spent his time being upset that he couldn't touch the 'toy store'. There is a sort of store in here, seems to be mostly retro coke product related but it's not the retro decor that is around the whole place. Definitely worth a few visits to try different things on the menu. The customer service isn't the most amazing but the food is good, lots of options, cute decor and a nice local spot. I think it is a nice utilization of the space.

I had been apprehensive because of an incident a co-worker told me about. I tried it anyway, and here is my review. The atmosphere was fun and reminded me of the dinner in the movie, "Grease." It was like a step back in time. The music was 50's and upbeat. Very cute, it made me want to put my poodle skirt on - I loved it!! The hostess was nice, but not too friendly or welcoming. She seemed timid and not knowledgeable of the restaurant or menu items. Maybe, she was new? The service was great. Our server was friendly, outgoing, smiling, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. She was what gave this establishment four stars instead of three. The food was hot and fresh. I ordered a burger and fries. The burger was not a frozen patty, so that was a nice surprise. The burger seasoning was different, and the patty was small. The bun was too big for the burger - too much bread (for my liking). The fries were crisp and seasoned well. One thing that made this experience negative for me was a tall blond woman working there who was waking around with a scowl on her face. It was definitely off-putting. Maybe she was having a bad day? I'm not sure. I will give the establishment another chance. I will update if my opinion changes.

Good little dinner with the atmosphere to match. The food was good and hit the spot for lunch. Floats were tasty and unique. Funnel cake fries were hot and flavorful. I ate the John Wayne burger 😋 .....good! The dinner also has a small area with items to purchase from locals. Some items are from the 60s to recent years. The prices are average these days. The dinner also has high chairs and counters with the spinning chairs, too. Huge cinnamon rolls and glass sodas.
