35 Best Diners near New Hyde Park

“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 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.“

“Very good food and service!!!“

“it was like im eating at my or a friend's grandma's house...loved it and it's diverse loved it ...“

“Went in for breakfast. Our server was decent. Walked away as I was finishing telling him my order, which came out ICE COLD & WRONG!!!! I requested a ham, COOKED/SAUTÉED ONION & American cheese omelet, fries and RYE toast with crispy bacon. My omelet was well done, the onions RAW, fries were ice cold my bacon was not cooked and not there had to tell the runner, and my toast was marble. All this for OVER &50.00!!! The server came by, we were basically finished. Asked how everything was. How would he or the runner know our order. Neither one looked at the order. NEVER AGAIN!!!“

“OMG if you are in the area, PLEASE give this place all your money! you will wait for a seat but baby it's well worth it!!!! you will leave with leftovers and will go back when in the area!!! it's Aahhhmazing! and it's family run and me and my girls went for a mommy daughter trip for a concert and it was a wonderful start to our second day!“

“Ate the Chicken and Waffle Brunch! Yummy! The wait staff kept my coffee cup filled the entire time I was seated at my table. Wonderful diner!“

“Delicious breakfast old style atmosphere“

“What can I say a diner is a diner, not too many differences between them. However, that being said, the service here is very good. It was busy but we got a table right away and once we ordered our food, it arrived in a short time. The food is good and the portions are large. It's very family-friendly. The prices are reasonable. I would recommend this diner if you're in the area.“

“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“

“I enjoyed having Salmon for dinner there.“

“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!“

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

“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!!“

“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.“

“The food is standard. Nothing wow, but very consistent. We go for George (Jorge) and the lady (i think she's the new owner).
George makes the best mimosas, always ready to smile and get you drinks and food. He is just the best.
The Lady, always welcoming and ready to engage in a nice conversation.
They also are never rushing to get you out the door. They want you to rest, relax and enjoy your time with them.“

“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.“

“amazing staff and amazing food keep doing amazing things for this community you guys have changed this town much love ❤️“

“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!“

“this is a wonderful spot! I love that there are locals and regulars strewn about - those that work here trade tasks well to get things through quickly, and are nice. the food is amazing! also very fairly priced. I loved that the regulars and locals knew each other; it shows how good the food is and how competent the staff are.“

“It is a tradition old time confectionary shop you just don’t see anymore. You don’t even need a menu everything is deckhouse. Their breakfasts foods are my ultimate faves but it’s all good. Their ice creams and homemade chocolate is like no other. The self distancing and mask 😷 rules are practiced to the maximum. Very safe place to eat inside. Very self distanced.“

“Good food....Good service“

“was there this afternoon. Had a very enjoyable meal. wife had a brisket plate and me chopped steak. Have enough left over for another meal. Food was brought to our table hot , and with plenty of meat. Even the Greek salad was good and fresh. Waitress and other staff very attentive and place was clean. Will be back“

“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!“

“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!“
