“It’s such a yummy spot on Metropolitan Avenue in Middle Village!

The service is always good. The staff are always friendly. I have never had a bad meal here - after many many times at the Metropolitan Diner.

The only negatives are the difficulty parking (welcome to Middle Village) and the sometimes long wait (but, that’s what you get when the food is superior)!“

“Ilona Lynch Stop 20 Diner is the absolute Best diner! They have the best, fattest anf tastiest burgers, which we had last night. I have been getting great meals from there for years, but last night was the first time I have ordered a burger from there, along with 2 good friends, and the burgers blew us away, along with the fries, being cooked to perfection. We have never had such thick burgers before at any diner ever, and they were so tasty and cooked to perfection. The onion rings were also excellent. A special thank you to the night manager, Manny for your service which went above and beyond! My 2 dear friends who were with me last night when you brought us our burgers also love the Food at Stop 20, and we send much appreciation and respect for your treatment of us, and the high quality of our meals! Ilona Lynch“

“A cozy family run cafe with welcoming and friendly staff, their food is AMAZING and cooked with so much love! You CANNOT find any other spot that can beat their prices, that’s forsure!! Their breakfast is delicious - their French toast is a must have btw- and their burgers are great as well as the wraps, food is always served hot and quickly. As for delivery, they always exceed expectations because the food is always earlier than the suggested time and the drivers are very kind and friendly! Definitely recommend visiting, you won’t regret it!! They also have the best servers - Cleo and Aly are the absolute BEST ?“

“Great bagel platter for two!“

“Excellent fare and service from extremely friendly staff , had a delicious first diner breakfast in America and it was a winner ! Thank you guys ! 😊“

“I am fairly new to the neighborhood, my husband and I decided to try out our new local diner (this was in July). We really enjoy this restaurant and so does our little one, this has become our go to diner. My daughter gets so excited every time we go, she starts kicking her feet and says hi and bye to the workers along with the other patrons. I normally order the same meal for myself and my daughter and it comes out the same every time! Delish! They are very accommodating every time I bring her, she’s 1 years old and already has her very first favorite restaurant. Thank you to the staff for always being kind and accommodating!“

“Simple Dinning for a quick Bite price is a little too steep for Basic Breakfast
Plus management take the waitress tips and put it in a jar which is weird 🤔 my harsh Brown was burn and 3 stripes of Bacon, this place can be much more better.“

“Been going here for years. Everything is good and reasonably priced. The staff are awesome and the decor is like old school hometown and spotlessly clean. Love it“

“Good food. Great service“

“We've been passing this place for over 20 years on our trip to New York and never had a chance to stop by... WE MISSED A LOT! We specifically decided on dining at the Omega Diner tonight and the good thing we did! We met there at 7 pm for a family dinner with our son who moved to New York. Kind of a half way between or PA home and his place in NY. The place wasn't very busy. We were sitted right away. The waiter was with us in less than a minute, and in another few minutes we were served our water, seltzer and hot tea. The waiter took our order, advising on what is good and what he would recommend. Great guy! Very friendly, very patient, very customer oriented. My wife got her cream of turkey soup in another few minutes. At that point I added the matzoh ball soup for myself. It was served right away. It looked so good that my son took it from me! I ordered another portion of it and asked to get me an additional bowl to split it. Well, in a few minutes it was served with extra bowl full of additiina steaming broth. This soup tasted very-very good. And the size of that matzoh ball!!! It was of the size of a baseball ⚾️ !!! Yes, and my wife's cream of turkey soup - delicious!!! We did not even want to eat anything else after that but... we already ordered our main meals... Well, everything was served fast and tasted great. My Omega club sandwich (recommended by the waiter) - delicious, Omega appetizers - perfect, deluxe cheeseburger - very nice, baked mix seafood for my wife - tasty and nicely presented, looking very appealing. Obviously, at least half of all this went home with us... We needed room for the sweets. Cappuccino, chocolate chip cookie, chocolate cheesecake - all was great, presentable and delicious! And all this for under $90 (plus tip of course) for the party of four! In today's world this is a pretty good deal! Especially, with such a great service, clean and nicely designed and maintained place and nice portions sizes! We will definitely come back to this place again. They have so many interesting and appealing items on their menu that we want to try...“

“My first time trying a Halal diner. As an American Muslim, it's exciting to finally select anything from the fully Halal menu. I came first thing in the morning and was warmly greeted! I had the Reuben sandwich but swapped cornbeef for pastrami, my brother had eggs and bacon. Both were good! For a side I'd recommend the home potatoes over the fries. You cannot order the middle Eastern menu i.e, shawarmas, until 2pm but I was in the mood for American food anyways. I'd come back here for sure, I love how it's within walking distance of the Hillside Islamic Center!“

“Wonder is a fantastic addition to Austin Street. The facility is always spotless, which I really appreciate. The service is consistently friendly, making the pickup process very smooth. Even when ordering from multiple menus, the food comes out fast and well-packaged. Highly recommend for a quick and easy dinner!“

“My grandfather (Jerry) many years ago 10 or more showed me this is where he would eat back in the days. He ordered grits and loved coming. It gave him a sense of comfort and good food, this had to be around the 60s-80s. Bless this store for still serving the community ❤️he passed away but I’ll always remember the JOY he had coming here!“

“Great and big meals, very friendly staff and cool atmosphere ❤️“

“Good food....Good service“

“friendly staff, very attentive. large menu, very accommodating.“

“MUY bueno“

“Friendly,friendly staff! Los mejores!“

“the food is very good but I see that they have that back from their takeout menu from the way it used to be I usually get a cheeseburger deluxe and the price I never had a problem with it but now I have a problem with it because instead of a whole pickle I get too little pickle wedges I get a little cup of coleslaw and I do not get the sesame bun like I used to the food is still good but the things I just said takes away from it for the price I pay.“

“I definitely recommend this diner. The service is amazing, food is great and I love the cozy atmosphere. Owners are very sweet people and welcoming. If you’re looking for a quick bite that’s delicious and a reasonable price then you should stop here!“

“I discovered an unexpected treasure nestled in the center of Queens. The residents were welcoming, and the cuisine was both swift and delicious. This spot truly deserves more attention! The food was so incredible that I dove in before remembering to take a photo.“

“A teen "jogger" waitress, gave me an attitude. I ordered some soup for take out. This waitress was angry and hostile. The soup was cold, and there were no crackers! The waitress needs some anger managment! Every time I go there, their service is dreadful. This will be the last time! Phooey!“

“The food was very good. There was something new on the menu that my cousin really liked called Nutella waffles with strawberries—they were delicious. I took off one star because the cups and utensils were not very clean. There was something in the water, so we did not drink any of it. Other than that, it was a very good experience, And I would come again. 👍🏾“

“I read all the reviews below and see value in most. Some, based on my experience, I take with a grain of salt. Mitchell’s has good food, ok prices and a mix when it comes to hospitality. Finding capable help these days isn’t easy. To complicate things, Mitchell’s is not that crowded usually zap waitstaff doesn’t do that well on tips so they don’t attract great help.“

“Pollos a la Brasa is truly one of our favorite places, and it feels like home every time we go. We’ve known the family that owns it for years, and they are some of the kindest, most genuine people you’ll ever meet. Clarabel is so sweet, and her brother is amazing— they always make you feel welcomed and appreciated.

The food is absolutely fantastic and never disappoints. Our go-to orders are the pulled pork, lemon chicken, yellow rice and beans, and the sopa de mariscos (seafood soup), which is always full of flavor and so comforting. Everything is fresh, well-seasoned, and made with love.

It’s more than just a restaurant—it’s a place run by wonderful people who truly care about their customers. We will always continue to support and recommend Pollos a la Brasa to everyone. Highly recommend!“

“I have seen some bad reviews. Yes is it a little overpriced. I usually order breakfast. You go to most stores in Forest Hills the white part of the egg is going to look Brown. But over here it's always white seems like they do a good job cleaning after they cook every meal. Plus when I asked for extra crispy bacon it is always on point. I think some of these people giving bad reviews probably just have bad lives this Diner is excellent at least for takeout. They're good at following instructions especially the man that takes my order“
