Bro. This place? Bro.

Not only was the food incredible (and filling), after we ordered, they baked a fresh batch of chocolate chip cookies and just gave everyone a free cookie. It might seem small, but I can't even express how happy it made us.

We will be back more often than we probably should be.

Just called to place an order and the attitude I was given on the phone. Not even place on hold but told call back in 15 to 20 minutes. Not great customer service. Called the diner 5 mins from them and they took the order right away no issues.

I have been a regular customer at Mitchell's for the past 15 years.
It is family friendly with a warm and welcoming vibe.
I live in Long Beach and drive past other diners on my way to Mitchell's in Valley Stream.
The food is always fresh and the owners, Demetri and Vickie, make it a point to check in with all seated customers to make sure they are happy with their meal, and if they would like anything else.
From time to time, Demetri and Vickie also offer free desserts to each table.
This wonderful personal touch is not always associated with diners.
To me it demonstrates a willingness to go above and beyond for their customers, giving them a chance to express satisfaction or, if need be, address any changes the customer may prefer.
It's this type of concern , as well as the food served, that has kept me a loyal customer for 15 years.
They truly place the needs of their customers first.
I can attest to that...

Mitchel’s Diner is definitely one of those spots that makes you feel right at home. The service was excellent — friendly, quick, and genuinely attentive without being overbearing. You can tell the staff takes pride in what they do.
And let’s talk about the food — everything came out fresh and hot, but the real standout was the chicken francaise. Absolutely amazing! Perfect flavor, great texture, and something you’ll definitely come back for.
Highly recommend stopping by Mitchel’s Diner if you’re looking for great food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere.

Bland bland bland. Ordered the salmon burger that came with a salad and tzatziki. Paid extra for crispy onions. Onions were not crispy like I expected, it was just caramelized onions and some had a normal onion crunch from not being fully caramelized, but it wasn't breaded or anything, or prepared in any way that would indicate crispy.

Salmon burger was plain and ultra bland, didn't seem like it was cooked with love, passion, or even any type of house recipe. The “tzatziki” was more akin to a bland sour cream, most lacking “tzatziki” I've ever had so that wasn't going to add any flavor either. Somehow the feta for the salad was also lackluster, and the dressing was what seemed to be tiny pieces of tomatoes and something else in too much oil and vinegar.

When I simply tasted the “dressing” on the tip of my fork it sent a shock wave through my head to my brain. Never experienced that before maybe there was too much undiluted vinegar Idk. Salad was iffy some of the lettuce was browning. Tried one olive and spit it out, possibly going sour. And I had just had a nice fresh greek salad earlier today so the contrast was obvious.

Bun for burger was lackluster like something you get at school and eventually got soggy for being in same container w/ salad. The bun was probably already too soft to withstand that close proximity anyway.

Gave it two stars instead of one b/c overall seemed the ingredients were at least not super old and the piece of brownie I had was okay. Maybe some of their other more straightforward items are okay but I won't be back to find out. Once I can tell a place is not cooking with passion and finesse I'm out. This is the lowest review I've ever written on here and am usually giving five stars but that's how disappointed I am, especially after reading the great reviews. Couldn't even finish all the food and felt like my money went to waste.
