It was the worst diner I have seen in all these years. There was a slightly fat brunette waitress who was around 50 years old. He behaved very badly, was rude and disrespectful. The diner was very dirty and we asked for baklava while reading it, he brought 1 month old baklava, believe me, the knife couldn't cut it. The coffee service was terrible. My advice to this workplace is to read it first and change this waitrees then renew your products.

Oh don't get us started on this place. The only thing the employees are good at, is making sure you don't come back after eating there. The employees make this place a physcoward! They are so dellusional about everything in the place is not even funny. The food is total garbage, just thrown on a plate with no presentation or taste to it. When you go to complain about everything, and you will complain about everything in this place, they will immediately deny everything. They'll say "oh no one has every complained and about it before." yeah when its Friday Night at 7:00PM you walk into the place and there's not even one person there! Yeah then its believable that no one complains. If you get a waitress named Stacey do yourself a favor and just walk out he door. Speaking about being two faced, lazy, and a leach, that's about what the employees are in there. Except a woman with short hair, she's cool as hell works on Wednesdays! This Stacey character does nothing but complain left and right and 90% of the time when she's supposed to be working, she's sleeping. In fact, that one and the Cashier Maria, last week came in for desert, and both of them didn't bother to get up on their lazy asses and do nothing, not even when we were the table right behind them. Went to the bathroom, came back and both of them were pretending to be fast asleep in the booth. In addition, they will talk crap about each other, make falsified rumors about each other, especially about customers. Stacey will use other employees so that she doesn't have to pay full price for an uber ride, when you offer something to another person, she'll jump right in and demand you give her one as well, yeah right get a real job! There's another male, that starts rumors supposidely that one customer wants to have bang the cashier just for offering her a ride home, or some dumbass thing about it. We hope the owner reads this to know what your paying these people for. We walked out the door and will never come back. That's how pathietic this place is, they have to stir up drama just to make their moronic lives interesting. Wish we never entered this place!

I was very surprised, but we had a good experience here today for breakfast. Even though this establishment is very close to our home, located off a busy Route 46 East in Elmwood Park, past experiences and the fact that we never saw the parking lot too crowded had us staying away from Parkway Diner. Upon entering, we were greeted by the staff and were seated right away in the dining room to the left of the entrance. The food is standard diner food, with a good selection on the menu. We decided on the waffle tower (layers of French toast and waffle quarters with banana, strawberries, and walnuts topped with whipped cream and chocolate syrup) and 2 eggs scrambled with turkey sausage, accompanied by crispy home fries and wheat butter toast. The service was good, but the food was even better with huge portions. The prices were very typical of what you will find now at any diner in the area. This place is as solid as any neighborhood diner. Go and give it a try.

Very surprised but had a good experience here. Been doing some diner crawls and although the ambience might have been lacking a crowd, it made up for it for food and service.Granted it’s a Sunday at 3pm on NYE - i was one of few there. Nonetheless I got the 2 egg platter and it was a good experience. Home fries were regular, little salt and pepper did the trick. Toast was good. Beef sausage was out of this world tho.Service was great - promptly sat and was treated very well. Order was quick and they had holiday jingles playing.Will be back!

First and last time here. This is why:1. Food did not taste fresh.2. Buffalo wings were not properly plucked. They still had parts of the feathers left on them.3. Blue cheese smelled and tasted weird.4. When I asked for extra lemons for my calamari the waiter said they have to charge me for a side order.When I tried telling the manager my experience, instead of taking responsibility, he blamed it on COVID. Not a good first impression.

Great place to eat glad they were open in Christmas Day. They were understaffed but they gave great service. Food was pretty good had no complaints about it. They serve breakfast all day so I got French toast with banana and Nutella. I also got a cheeseburger with onion rings and a strawberry shake.

I was just getting over a sickness so I ordered takeout for home… They had pretty good reviews… I ordered a corn beef Reuben and I didn’t put corn beef on it. It had some dry brown meat and no sauce. I also asked for a side of mayo, I never received that either. I got a quesadilla and they forgot to give me all of those sides. When I finally received it, I ended up having to throw all of it out.

The food is good, unfortunately, the customer service is terrible (not the waitstaff!). It has been like this for a few years. If you are going to answer the phone & take orders, you should be at least a LITTLE bit familiar with the menu. It’s not necessary to get nasty with the customer when YOU are frustrated because you are unfamiliar with some English words.
