Around the Clock Diner at the American Dream Mall remains a popular spot for family gatherings and large groups. Reservations can be made a few hours ahead, and while there might be a short wait, the staff is known to be friendly and accommodating. The appetizers, including bang bang shrimp, wings, and Mac and cheese bites, are enjoyed by many, though some find the Mac and cheese bites just okay. Main meals like burgers, chicken wraps, shrimp Alfredo, fried shrimp breakfast, strawberry waffles, chicken sandwiches, and Caesar salads are generally well-prepared and tasty. Notable desserts such as the s’mores milkshake, chocolate ice cream, and strawberry cheesecake are standout items, with the cheesecake receiving particular praise. The restaurant also features beautiful entrees and indulgent boozy milkshakes topped with freshly baked warm donuts, making it an appealing choice for those looking for diner food and brunchy dinners. While some reviews mention mixed experiences with food quality, others highlight specific meals like Nutella pancakes and steak and eggs as delicious. Overall, Around the Clock Diner continues to attract diners with its extensive menu and welcoming atmosphere.
