We thoroughly enjoyed our experience! Breakfast on a Sunday without too long of a wait - yay! Very pleasant service - rarely found anywhere these days least of all in south Florida. And the best tasting breakfast I’ve had in a very long time. There’s magic in their breakfast potatoes, somehow they’re soft on the inside and oh so crispy on the outside. We’ll definitely be back :)
Referred to us by our Airbnb host, we should have read the Yelp reviews first. Why call it the “Jukebox Diner” when there isn’t one. In fact, whatever theme was there before new owners took over in October 2020 was gone. The restaurant has absolutely no personality. Why because the owner is cheap. Day 1 Went there and food was excellent and service by a female server was great. Ordered blueberry pancakes and there was no extra charge.Thank God didn’t meet or deal with owner. See Day 2. Day 2. Ordered same excellent breakfast that we ordered the day before. Saw an additional charge for blueberries as specified for pancakes. The young male server didn’t inform us there was an extra charge. Went in to pay check and asked server about it. He bluntly said that’s a surcharge and didn’t offer to remove it for a misunderstanding. The owner rudely butted in, scolded the excellent female waitress for not charging us the day before and scolded our waiter this day for making the mistake. She didn’t do the right thing which would have been what any decent restaurant would do and offer to remove the surcharge. She then went into a 10 minute diatribe to me about the cost of food prices today and the expense of operating a restaurant. Not my concern. I chose to eat out rather than at home and didn’t want my experience ruined by her details which is not my concern. I patiently listened to her . Initially I hadn’t complained …I just politely inquired about the charge and she made a scene about it for 10 minutes in front of other customers. Then I told her, “How much does it cost to acquire a new customer?” A lot more than $2. When she couldn’t answer that question, I asked her another one. “Is it worth $2 to lose a customer?” She raised her voice and lectured me for an additional 3 minutes before asking me if I wanted my $2 back. I explained it wasn’t the money but the principal of their practice of not informing a customer when they order about a surcharge (nothing mentioned on the menu about it either) and her attitude of arguing over it. So I replied “Yes” and she nearly threw it at me. I should have left my 2 cents in return! She continued to lecture me as I walked out and told her we would not be returning. Lesson Learned. Don’t patronize any restaurant owner who doesn’t know how to treat customers or employees.
A regular there for breakfast. At times, there are longer waiting times for food service, overall, a good place. Went there this past weekend and was asking about a server that took care of us multiple times, I believe her name was Joanne, blond hair, fun personality, very accommodating and took care of us, come to find out she is no longer there, disappointed. Anyhow, good place to eat.
This place is fantastic love the food and the new owners. The new owner is absolutely lovely if you have any problems she addresses it immediately I eat there at least twice a week the waiter Chris is awesome everyone is so nice and helpful there. If you get a chance go there I recommend this place to all prices are very reasonable not expensive at all.. happy eating!!!
Look at the spectacular renovations the diner has done, paired with the great food. I had the Irish Benedict. It was Amazing!!! And the owners and service are always the best too!!!
This is no longer a diner. We were so disappointed to see the once lively 50s styled diner with bright yellow booths and a Wurlitzer jukebox playing has been completely renovated into a gray and white soulless breakfast place. The new owners were friendly and I wish the best to them, but my heart hurts that such a gem no longer exists. I had an omelet and breakfast potatoes. It was okay but I wouldn’t go back. RIP Jukebox Diner. ?
We always enjoy coming here. Sitting outside,the breeze, the birds. However we find it very disappointing this time. The new owners have added metal tables and chairs. The,noise from everyone moving their chairs is deafening!! I doubt we will return..The new owners are changing the name. No more jukebox...
I originally had ordered the chicken fried steak. After waiting 10 minutes, the waitress returned to tell me that they were out of chicken fried steak, and she suggested the New York strip instead, which I ordered. The steak was largely fat and gristle. I took a few bites of the edible portion, and made do with the eggs, toast and potatoes. When the waitress finally returned and gave us the ticket, I mentioned that the steak was not good and asked to speak to the manager.The manager let me know in no uncertain terms that I should not have eaten the steak (3 bites) and instead, returned it.
We are here from Toledo Ohio on vacation. We came to the diner three times for breakfast now. Totally our favorite place the food is awesome the prices are great and the people are just extraordinary friendly. We will definitely be back on the next vacation.
Ordered a steak breakfast, but what I received did not resemble a steak and was fatty and gristly. The hostess was unpleasant when I mentioned it.
