“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!“

“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 ?“

“Always great service with a nice welcome and appreciation for the business. Great breakfast and brunch menu. Fast service.“

“Staff is always very pleasant and the food is delicious“

“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!“

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

“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...“

“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“

“Great bagel platter for two!“

“Philip - You have the best chicken noodle soup! It really helped us get through the flu. In fact, all your food is the best. My family really loves your tuna melts & hot turkey dinners. You, your Dad and your staff are THE VERY BEST!!“

“My favorite from here is the breakfast and triple decker chicken salad sandwich with fries and coleslaw.
12/21/25 I ordered the triple chicken salad club/decker. The food looked good, but unfortunately the taste didn’t match the presentation. I ended up taking the bacon off the sandwich because it tasted like it had been sitting out since the morning — there was no real bacon flavor at all. The fries were hard, which was disappointing.
On the positive side, the coleslaw was good and the water was fine, but overall the food just wasn’t great this time.
It’s unfortunate because this is one of those places that was once known for really good food. Lately, it feels like quality is changing, and not for the better. Hopefully this was just an off day, but this visit didn’t live up to what I’ve come to expect.“

“I have there several times. The people and service are absolutely awesome. The interior had been beautifully redone while they were closed. You have to come and enjoy it yourself.“

“Delicious food, and the new owners are super friendly. I come here regularly.
So far I’ve tried the Croissant french toast, Blackened chicken panini, Patty melt, Char-grilled veggie salad.
I tried my cousins onion ring fries and they were so yummy! (I usually don’t like onion rings) they were crispy and with lots of flavor

They updates their coffee, the new coffee is delicious, I would highly recommend it ☕️“

“Stopped here after taking someone to the airport and did a Google search of breakfast places nearby… Server was so nice. Menu and atmosphere very simple. Seems like a tight knit group of friendly employees I got the French toast and turkey bacon.“

“We normally dine at The Last Stop on Sunday mornings for a late breakfast. The custom omelets are superb and the service prompt and friendly. It has a home town, friendly atmosphere. What more can you ask?“

“I've been going to Carmine's for years. At one point we thought the were closed and it was so heartbreaking. To be driving by and see them in full swing I found a parking spot and ordered my regular. French toast, grits,eggs and bacon.“

“Good food....Good service“

“Nice, old-school diner with a reasonable price/size ratio and a decent variety on the menu. Yes, they have tangible menus -- none of that QR code crap (where you're not sure if it's sending your phone to a sketchy website). This place is family-owned and operated. The manager is very sharp, efficient and friendly. He's on top of the customers' needs without being overbearing. They know their customers and sometimes their orders too. I'll definitely be returning!“

“Such a cute place, loved the coffee. Highly recommend!!“

“Smaller than some of the other diners around the area but to me seems to have slightly edgier food quality, worth the money over IHOP nearby. Portions are big enough even for 2 that don’t eat massive. Enjoy their good service and food with every visit.“

“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!“

“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.“

“Very good food and service!!!“

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

“I absolutely love this tiny restaurant, by far my favorite in queens. I’ve been going here since I was a little girl and have not regretted it once. The food is amazing and the portions they give is astounding for the low price. Highly recommend !!“

“God bless this place! Uncle Bobby & Auntie Daljeet and nephews Navjot and Navraj are so kind and blessed! Jesus bless them! This place’s food is fantastic. They went out of their way to get me strawberries for my oatmeal! Bless them eternally!“

“MUY bueno“

“I always go here for the full mix appetizer. I forgot what's it called but it has fried stuff in it like wings, tenders, potato wedges, ribs, stuffed clams, mozzarella sticks. And something else too in it. It's always good and consistent. I like it“

“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.“
