This place is great, really chill 50 Diner vibe with 50's and 60's music playing. Great art and movie posters to fill the wall. And the food was delicious 😋 and was served in a timely manner. Definitely recommend if you in a mood for old style diner breakfast and lunch!

Anyone who hasn’t tried to city diner on old Monterey Highway they have the best prime rib on Fridays so tender best I’ve had ever the fresh dip sandwiches aren’t super juicy and flavorful the pork chops are great they grill I want to hear gas grill light with barbecue flavored shoot right into it the service is outstanding have the best stuff I’ve ever seen in my whole seven years

I'm not going to spend a lot of time doing a review. I was on the hunt for a good milkshake and I found it! I got a hamburger to go along with it and it was huge and good! I left a happy girl, what more can I say?
