My review was based on breakfast. The food was delicious. I ordered eggs over easy with sausage and toast. It can with home fries. Everything was perfectly cooked. The sausage links were large and extremely flavorful. Also to note, we got our food in less than ten minutes after ordering. It was FAST.
The atmosphere was nice and clean. It is a nice setting. We were there on a Saturday morning but it wasn't really getting busy until we left around 9:30. The bathroom wasn't super clean when we were there but it appeared to be maintained on a regular basis.
The waitress was professional and quick. She did a great job keeping things there and making sure we were taken care of. Would definitely recommend. We will try to make it back for another meal at some point.
Ok, I am a diner guy. I am driven past this place many times but never had time to stop. On this trip I made the time and boy, am I glad I did
I had one of their skillet breakfast. And to be quite honest it could have served two, the portion size was so large! It was very tasty. Heck, I give them five stars for just making sure that toast with buttered correctly. Service was diner good. A little sassy, but just right
You can dine in doors or outside in one of two different patios. I will definitely be going back!
Been hearing about this place from my lady for almost a year. Finally went there. Everything - OUTSTANDING. I got one of the specials - Salmon and Crabcake. Besides the salad (get their house dressing, yum), my other side was pasta with garlic in olive oil. The garlic florets in there were like candy. Service was superior - friendly and fast. Definitely will be back.
I have eaten there a half a dozen times- the turkey dinner is AMAZING. I've never had breakfast there, but I have also tried the Reuben which was decent and the veggie wrap which was just OK. My biggest complaint is people were telling me how good their tiramisu is, so I got a slice to go. It was TINY. 2 1/2" x 2 1/2" like I've never had such a small piece of tiramisu anywhere. I even questioned the waitress who boxed it up and she said "that's how big it is." The taste was great but I'm sorry it was just two bites worth.
We went on a Sunday morning and it was very busy but we only had to wait for 10 minutes. We had an omelet and french toast, and everything was very good and fresh. The waitress was attentative and friendly, and we never went without a coffee refill. I only really have two complaints that stick out. There's nowhere to sit and wait when you get there, and I was trying to avoid colliding with the kitchen staff the whole time. When it's busy, there's a mess in the front when you are trying to pay your bill. They don't take your check at the table, and it causes a mass of people waiting to pay the bill, to be stuck with the other mass of people waiting to be seated. Can get chaotic.
What an ABSOLUTE INCREDIBLE experience we had at this restaurant! Traveling back from the Youngstown Flea made us super hungry. We refused to succumb to fast food. This establishment DID NOT disappoint. Everything was satisfying and tasty. Great portions. And let’s not forget Aiden, who provided the best customer service we have had in a very very long time. Many blessings to the Owners and their staff!
Hopping place, and great service. My husband loved his shrimp dish and talked about the fish being really flaky.
I think I either just ordered the wrong thing, or was anticipating a different taste for the dressing. I'm southern and on the spectrum, so it threw me off. The turkey was tender and tasted good, but the dressing had a harder crust than I'm used to. Our server could tell I didn't care for it, but I told her it would take too long to re-do. In retrospect, I suppose I could have asked for something else. Good experience overall, I think it may just not have been what I personally was hoping for.
I love Central Diner. I've never had bad food or service here. The food is absolutely delicious! I come here when I need a home-cooked meal. Paula is a great waitress! She was very personable and was great at her job.
Charming and modernized atmosphere, and the staff was friendly. It can however get very packed and loud. It can unfortunately feel cold inside friendly on where you're sitting, and since the staff "supposedly" can't control the air conditioning, I recommend bringing a light jacket. The seats near the windows are a bit squeaky, and the backboard is flimsy. Someone sitting behind us was moving around a lot, and it kept knocking us forward.
As for the food, they have good omelets, coffee and milkshakes. The Chocolate one tastes like Nesquik. I felt the home fries were bland and sloppy, and the bacon was too crunchy for my taste. That being said, the breakfast was overall affordable and satisfactory.
I find it noteworthy to mention that my family and I have already dined here twice, yet my experience hasn't really changed...
