We came in after a very long day of work and doctors. There were a large variety of options on the Early Bird Menu. We ordered the hot open roast beef. It was fantastic. The meal came with soup or salad and even dessert. We brought home the chocolate mousse cake and strawberry shortcake for later...and we even grabbed a couple of chocolate chip cookies for the grandkids at home. The service was absolutely fantastic. We didn't have to ask for anything. We will definitely be going back!

Restaurant is clean and inviting, but that's where it ends. It took us 15 minutes of sitting to even get our menus. After ordering, food took almost an hour for a panini and a burger plus some loaded fries as an appetizer. Pastrami panini had more toppings than pastrami. Burger was overcooked and greasy. We asked for the loaded fries first, but it came out only a minute before the rest. Everything was mediocre and slow. The woman whom I assume is the manager came over to our table to inform us that they load the pastrami panini with toppings because pastrami is expensive but they still want to charge $15 dollars, so they load it with toppings to make you feel like you're getting more food(seriously). They offered to remake the burger but after being there for two hours, we just wanted to leave. We received a 15% discount for eating roughly 10% of our food. Avoid this place at all costs.

I love the Westville Diner. My wife and I come here pretty often, and we enjoy the idea of exploring the menu, even though we often gravitate towards our favorites.Ioanna, the owner, and all the staff, are so friendly, it's incredible. You end up with the feeling like you know them all personally. And if you come here often enough, you will.Just a great place to come, sit down, relax, take a deep breath, enjoy some good food, and some friendly faces.Tonight I'm having the steak tips, which comes in a brown sauce with onions and mushrooms over rice. It is absolutely delicious. It is enough to make two meals, so now I know what I'm having for lunch tomorrow! By the way, my meal came with a side salad and dessert. Am I ordered the fries because I couldn't help myself :).My wife had the blueberry pancakes, one of her favorites. They're huge, so she automatically cuts them in half as soon as she gets them, and she brings one half home for the next day. So she gets two meals out of hers also.

The food is... Okay. Nothing impressive, especially the home fries that appear to be made with canned potato slices. Servers are competent but for as slow as it was when I came in, I'd say that the food too too long to come to the table. Waitress could have been a bit more attentive. The music played in the diner is torturous. It's a non-stop streamed mishmash of abysmal cover songs. All genres and time periods in random array that makes no sense. Every song is eerily recognizable but utterly bereft of the magic that makes these songs great. The music will keep me from ever stepping foot in this place ever again. For people who love music it's a slap in the face.

Looks like a pretty good place as you walk in. Was greeted with tap water. Took a while for waitress to walk over. We got baked ziti with meatballs and a fried fish with fries. Everything was pretty bland. The best thing was the fries. Most likely won't go back.

I had breakfast at the Westville diner about a week ago. I ordered sausage 2 eggs 1 pancake and coffee. The meal came with home fries and toast. The meal was delicious but I was stunned when I received my bill. I paid $30.00 for a breakfast I could have made at home for much less. I have never had a BREAKFAST that cost me $30.00. I expressed my opinion to the cashier and told her that I would NEVER patronize this establishment again.
