30 Best Diners in Queens

“Came here because it had good reviews, it sure did live up to every expectation.
Walking into the restaurant, nice atmosphere, bar, seating, counter, seating, and tables available, you get to pick where you sit. Servers were attentive and walking around, just in case you needed more water or to clear your plate.
My day, and I got a nice selection of food, and totally enjoyed every bike. Great flavor, not too much spice. We got crabcakes to start, eggs Benedict, he got tacos, I got a Greek omelette, but we shared. Not a lot of diners do fresh squeezed, orange juice, so I was pretty impressed even by that.
Atmosphere for Brunch was very inviting, their specialty is a seafood pasta which I’ll definitely be going back for. And this place wasn’t too pricy, which is definitely a pro.
Staff is also multilingual, so if you’re going here with friends, like my date, they can communicate other than in English“

“Cute little diner on Steinway. The menu’s not as large as many NYC diners but the quality of food makes up for that. They were very good about dealing with some requests for my 4 year old son. I’ll probably come back because it’s close to home.“

“Always have great service and have never had a bad meal.“

“A GEM find in Long Island City. Walking distance from our hotel, perfect little diner for breakfast or lunch. We ordered breakfast for lunch:) the pancakes were some of the best we’ve ever had! I had blueberry pancakes & both of my kids had pancakes. They came out fast and steaming hot, PERFECT. And the prices were so reasonable. This is an a must visit!“

“Hit the spot. I had the “Mexican” Omelette with added ham. Along with what looks to be actual home fries made from actual non processed potatoes.. not the chopped up store bought kind.. Either I was exhausted from walking all day and it being 2 AM, or this food was just that good! Never the less, I will definitely be eating there again!“

“We went for brunch to this restaurant with our grandchildren. We were greeted by the nicest waiters of all time. My husband and I had the Club Sandwich and our grandson had pancakes and bacon. The portions were so generous and quite affordable. Our granddaughter was sleeping in a stroller and the lady who greeted us even helped us tilt the back of her stroller down and find the perfect place to sit to accommodate her. Wonderful place to go for lunch!“

“The service was great and the food was fresh and tasty. It was a little quiet but maybe it was that time of day. The price was reasonable. Just wished there was specials of the day and maybe a little more items on the menu like a regular diner.“

“Like coming home, the place of fond memory. Comfort food of the old school, attentive service, family friendly“

“I always eat at Michaels restaurant and love the food. This past Friday, I have to say, it was the best I have ever eaten. Lisa the waitress we sometimes have, said I have really good roast beef and I was debating about getting it. She knows I like my beef med. rare. I ordered it and it was soooooo good. She took such good care of us. This restaurant is really good and I'm glad that Astoria, has the diner.“

Went this morning and got a Chicken Parm Sandwich and my girlfriend got a Cuban, both were delicious. The Texas fries were so good. You need to try this place (especially if you’re hungover)“

“This place is crack I only discovered it like two months ago and have been back at least 10 times. They take good care, I got a diner right by me but I drive 15-20 minutes to just come here. It’s like an upscale diner with very reasonable prices.“

“GREAT diner food, very impressed! The French toast was awesome! Grilled was good and the potato skins were delicious and huge! Service was great too. Went back the next morning and tried the skirt steak and eggs. I was surprised at the quality considering its diner food. The steak was very tender and a perfect medium rare. I’ve been back multiple times and have not been disappointed, The different kinds of flatbreads and the moussaka is phenomenal!“

“Visiting Queens and found this spot near the hotel for some brunch. Small mom and pop feel with excellent food. Price wasn't bad for the amount of food you get. Come hungry. Servers were very helpful and friendly. Ended up going back the next day and tried the Uncle Bill's omlet...OMG! Ham, cheese, and gyro meat. Who knew? Most definitely recommend this place.“

“Always a pleasure good food good service“

“Peggy knows how to pick great places to eat!“

“I curated my own delicious salad, consisting of arugula, avocado, red onion, hard boiled egg, cranberries, walnuts, and Swiss cheese with a dollop of goat cheese. It was so delicious and fresh. I ordered it three times in the past week. I also ordered a small fruit salad and an apple pie everything was fresh and very delicious. I also asked them to put some olive oil on the side and it was real olive oil. It was not diluted. I highly recommend this diner. Everything was fresh. I’m much more into arugula now than spinach and the diner just did a wonderful job. I was so happy with my dinner. They delivered it promptly. I would definitely give this diner five stars!!“

“there's something for everybody to enjoy , friendly place spotlessly clean and the food is very good what else is there to say“

“They can do a little better with the Tv suitation, ( 3 very small tv's with the captions going, but if your facing the other way, you are out of luck ) but the service was quick & and the coffee was freshly brewed. Our waiter, " Roy " was on point with the service.“
