Nicole is literally a gift to this world. She was super knowledgeable about Celiac Disease and allergy handling. She was so kind, funny, sweet… I wish we were local because we would be here EVERY morning. May is also a sweetheart and miiiiight be giving Nicole a run for her money on the mimosas! Nicole, if you see this, thank you for being an amazing human and host! We adore you!! P.s. the food is out of this world!!

Love the atmosphere and staff was very friendly and knowledgeable of the menu. Great service and food! Will definitely go back.

My family and I were staying in the condos just behind this plaza and I was lucky enough to go here twice. Both times were fantastic! Clean, super friendly and wonderful food. There really is only so much you can do to make yourself stand ou above the rest but At The diner has done it. From the bottomless mamossa to the crazy creative pancakes it was a hit with the whole family

Bring cash or be prepared to pay 4% surcharge. Small sign at hostess stand says this but if they seat you the second you walk in you won’t see that sign. Food was ok but not worth the prices let alone the 4% extra.

Friendly from the moment we walked in the door. The most yummy biscuits and gravy ever! Wonderful waffles - light, airy and still crispy - fast service, everything we ordered was delish! We went there twice during our trip to Central Florida, it was that good

Honestly, we came here because Golden Corrall was opening a lot later than we thought. There were not many people there so we were sat immediately and food was out promptly. Breakfast was great and filling although prices were a little high. Will definitely be coming here again. *Prices were higher than what was on the menu but we assumed this to be inflation

@ The Diner is a terrific establishment. I chose to visit on a Sunday afternoon so understandably it was very busy. The wait was about 40 minutes. The hostess and server were very polite and attentive. I had the Pecan and Banana French Toast which was absolutely amazing. Avocado toast and Waffle Taco also received high praise from the person who enjoyed them. Weill definitely be returning.

The food was amazing. I got the chicken biscuits with gravy, cheddar, and bacon which was 5 stars. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars is because the service is kinda slow, as I placed an online order, waited thirty minutes, and had to call them to finally confirm my order.

We were a Party of 6. Two of the 6 were a few minutes late in arriving Hostess sat us down with 4 already there. Waitress had a RUDE attitude when she only saw 4 and said she cannot help us until all 6 were there and walked away! Service didn’t get better when all 6 were there. Then the bill had an undisclosed automatic 22% service fee! Waitress said that was her tip! Now I know why she could have an ATTITUDE!!!! Food was mediocre for the $150! Don’t think I’m going there again!

I really enjoyed my breakfast here. It was exceptionally solid and the place very popular on a Monday. Their sausage gravy was yummy, their waffles were awesome, and their hollandaise sauce was on point. Their homemade Mac and cheese is worth it, and that's a rare thing for me to say. They poached the eggs perfectly and their bacon was high quality (not that normal basic bacon at most places). I rarely like potatoes that diners give as a side, but these needed no adjustments. However, while I am not going to give them less than 5 stars overall, I tried their newest menu item, a waffle taco, and let's just say it was *useless*. It was supposed to be crispy like a shell, but the cook apparently forgot that because it was undercooked / soggy and fell all over the place when I tried to pick it up. Luckily it missed my lap. Now, after I laid it out on the plate and cut it like a normal waffle with chicken on top, it tasted sublime. Their coffee was also excellent. And finally, the server we had was cordial and patient. I do recommend this place (but if you're trying the taco make sure to ask them to make sure it's hard like a shell).
