“10/30/25 Thursday. Came here today for an early lunch. Haven’t been here since a decade ago it’s been remodeled it’s so bright and clean and modernized! When I came here it was dark and dime lit. The place was clean welcoming and the staff was friendly! I got an order of the fish and chips and coleslaw, instead of fries I got onion rings. The fish was cooked perfectly it wasn’t oily and the fish was not made with a heavy batter it was a balanced amount. The onion rings also cooked excellent fresh tasting and both dishes tasted like they used fresh grease not day old. My server was attentive, friendly busy, but always kept an eye out if I needed anything! Great customer service! For dessert got the key lime pie. Great tasting dessert cake was moist rich frosting but not to sweet. Very please with everything the service and the food will definitely come back to try more in the menu! Love the new look of the place very warm vibe inside.“

“yummy breakfast potatoes with perfect seasoning. delicious. you will leave full, happy and ready for a nap. blt sandwich was a masterpiece“

“Nice diner in Dedham. The service was great and the place was clean. We ordered the egg breakfast with French toast, steak omelet with avocado and avocado toast on sourdough. We also ordered hot chocolate and strawberry & banana crepes that were delicious. The portions are good sized and the prices are reasonable. Definitely lots of townies and that's a great sign. The food was tasty but the home fries need some seasoning.“

“Best steak and eggs breakfast around. Teddy’s never disappoints.“

“Great food to eat an good serving“

“It's a diner on the outskirts of the hood; a local hole in the wall dive that dish out great food! What ever you order will taste exactly how its supposed to!! I had the steak & cheese on a sub roll w/ steak fries 😋 Bestie had grits w/ spicy beef sausage and she loved that. The grits looked really good 👍🏾 we also had mimosas that were great!“

“excelente ubicación,presentación de platillos y atención“

“Had the flat iron Benny, amazing!“

“Delicious, delicious moussaka! And a friendly waitress even as you could tell she was busy.“

“Excellent Breakfast With great service“

“Food is decently priced compared to the area. The Carne Asada plate is not their forte but they do have great burgers and omelets. No truck parking. You can park on the side of the road but it's not that convenient. They do have delivery however and they're fast and friendly. If you're delivering to the Boston Market or the New England Market then hit this place up for a nice freshly cooked meal.“

“Just had Swanton Street Diner's food (via GrubHub). for the first time. Delicious, huge quantities, all top Notch ingredients.and prices that remind me of the good old days before the pandemic. My Wife LOVED the chicken stir fry and she is picky about food I was impressed by my contractor's breakfast. Best home fries I've had in twenty years. looking forward to working our way through your menu one item at a time. Five***** stars“

“Service was fast and friendly, coffee felt overpriced but I was proven wrong as you get almost two whole portions for the cold brew and it was delicious. My chicken and waffles was great, my boyfriend’s omelette was ok but it came with a laughable amount of home fries especially for the price. Probably wouldn’t return for food but might stop by for coffee!“

“Great food and great prices! We love jimmys! Chicken parm is awesome!“

“My grandfather used to eat here when he was in college and it was all he could afford. We still eat here on a regular basis because it reminds us of him, but also because it’s a great old school diner, and one of the few places in Boston where you can get served food 24/7. I strongly recommend getting breakfast, a burger, or a coffee frappe. Any of the eggs Benedict varieties are excellent.“

“Solid, classic diner spot for breakfast. My wife and I visited for the first time this morning. The decor has an old-fashioned diner vibe—simple, cozy, and welcoming. Parking was a bit of a challenge, but we found a spot after a loop around the block.

The food was good overall. Nothing blew us away, but the classic breakfast staples were prepared well. I was impressed by the fruit cup—larger and fresher than what you usually see at similar places. I ordered the cinnamon French toast, which wasn’t overly sweet but was filling and tasty. I also got a side of hash browns and bacon. The bacon was perfectly crispy (the only way bacon should be, in my opinion), and the hash browns were surprisingly crisp despite not being fried.

My wife tried the chicken and waffles, which were fine—basically a standard waffle with a couple of chicken tenders on top. The chicken was a bit tough, and the waffle was pretty basic. She mentioned that it might have been better with an egg on top, like an eggs Benedict, to tie it all together.

Overall, this seems like a solid spot for a classic diner breakfast. Eggs, pancakes, French toast, bacon, and omelets are probably safe bets. We’ll definitely be back. It was also a nice touch when the kitchen made a point to thank us on our way out.“

“Food was great, workers were friendly.“
