Harbor City Diner

Harbor City Diner-1630 S. Wickham Rd #3543, Melbourne, FL 32904 4.5 Stars Harbor City Diner, located in Melbourne, and tucked next to Mintons Corner Shopping Center (across the street from Domino’s), offers an eclectic mix of Greek and Italian fare. This is my second spin with this establishment, as my first foray prompted a one-star rating. Upon reading the previous review however, it began to register with me that my low ranking was made in a time and space, when I evaluated largely on service, a metric which I have since deemphasized, and have come to regard as an arcane practice. Toward that end, and for context only, I will note that the attending server on the first occasion was abominable. On this occasion however, Holly is our gweinydd. She has worked at the diner for eight years and further offers that she is also its manager. Holly operates at full throttle, despite working an exhaustive and busy day. Now, turning my attention to the quality of the food, this is good stuff. The redneck breakfast burrito is chalked full to the brim and is stuffed with eggs, bacon, along with ham, sausage and American Cheese. It is so filling, expertly prepared and is well executed to boot. The Greek burger is luscious. it is carefully handcrafted, cooked medium rare, with gobs of feta cheese, and served with tomatoes and onions. Although It’s a practice some might consider rare, by modern standards, it’s nonetheless worth noting that the tzatziki is made in house. My tastebuds were tantalized, as the sauce absolutely rocked. I was hooked on the first savor and was compelled to make a request for a large container to take home. In my initial impressions, I was quite negative regarding my assessments of this diner. Well…no more. Big Boy says, “Open your jaws, it’s safe to go back to Harbor City.”

I was a little skeptic when i walked in and it smelled like my barns back in Nebraska, but the food and service was worth it. Great Food for the price you pay and the server and cook were both very nice kind and knows how to take care of you like you are family. My wife ordered a gyro which was better than the ones served at an actual greek place. Im coming back here for sure.

Great service from Vanessa! Started with a generous plate of Greek Salad. I appreciated that everything was cut up small. Enjoyed the Chicken Souvlaki, which was served on a bed of rice with, onions, peppers and taziki sauce. Toasted points of tasty fresh pita bread with fresh tomatoes adorned the plate. Also included a small side of delicious homemade Cole slaw.

If you're looking for an awesome place to fill your tummy I highly recommend Harbor City Diner. Each time I've eaten there I was extremely satisfied with the entire experience. The food is delicious, the portions are huge, the service is terrific, and the prices are very affordable. My favorite part? It's a friendly place where everyone smiles!

Harbor City Diner certainly has had it's ups & downs over the years. It was one of our "go-to" places but it took a dive in the past. I can tell Robert is back in the kitchen! My Philly Cheese Steak & onion rings were some of the best I've had! The hub loved his French Dip. The house salad was huge, fresh & I was so happy with crunchy Romaine which many skip for cheaper (& little nutrition) iceberg. Darrian is a friendly, attentive server. I hope they bring back "Greek night," & "Italian night." We're going to go back again for sure & also try the breakfasts there which we used to love.

A wonderful diner! Good service and smiles! I had a Cheeseburger (at the recommendation of you fellow community guides) that was great!!! Cooked well and juicy! My daughter got the chicken veggie soup, which she enjoyed! Then we sampled a huge piece of chocolate cake! Portions were ginormous and tasty!!!
