This old school Greek Diner in Defiance is a worthwhile stop for a very good meal. It is located in an east side commercial area in a standalone building on the corner of a strip plaza. It's not difficult to find. The exterior looks nice enough with a classic blue awning. The spacious layout provided plenty of seating. Though not elaborate, the interior was comfortable and pleasant.
We were seated right away and our server attended to us quickly. She did a very good job during our entire visit as she was efficient and attentive but not intrusive. We had our 3-year-old granddaughter with us and they were able to accommodate her with no problem, which was greatly appreciated.
The menu offered plenty of options. They seemed at the core to be a Greek Diner with several characteristic offerings you'd expect from such a place. But they also featured plenty of American Midwest-style comfort food as well. My wife tried the Beef and Noodles special that took us back to the type of thing we ate as kids. She ordered that in part because it was something our granddaughter would eat, but she also enjoyed it as well given her proclivities toward such dishes. I opted for the Greek portion of their menu with a Famous Gyro Salad. It was also a very solid choice with good Gyro meat and fresh vegetables accompanied by equally fresh pita. It was all very good. I'll also note that the coffee was decent, which I can't always say for these types of diners.
The prices were very reasonable. Overall with food, drinks, tax and tip, we were able to stay at about $14 - $15 per adult. This is not bad at all for dinner by today's standards and I was quite happy with the value. We would not hesitate to try this place again should the opportunity arise.

Had turkey club wonderful
Just what you would expect from a classic diner type restaurant. I got the hot beef (they call it Manhattan) it was overly salty gravy, tender beef, mashed potatoes and basic white bread. Total comfort food! The side salad was crisp and fresh. We also got the tres leche cake (3 milk) and it was melt in your mouth delscious.
Come here quite often with my family when they are in town to visit. Always great service and great food. I highly recommend the Gyro, Double Cheese Burger, and the Crispy Chicken Sandwich. If you are like me and want to experience a meal how it was before life got too complicated, this is the place for you!!
We came there tonight for the first time. The soup was ice cold and even after sending it back it still was only warm. Then the food came out that was also cold the gravy on the country fried steak had noodles in it and tasted chalky. The burger on the patty melt was so dry I think it was cooked last week. Needless to say we won’t be back.
Stopped in today for eggs Benedict, it came out looking like it had lumpy tapioca on it. So horrible I couldn't eat it and the fruit was way underripe. The waitress did take it off our bill but I left hungry. It's going to be a long time before we go there again

We go here a lot and we are from out of town. Not once have we had bad food or service. A very good variety in menu! Very tasty too!
Wheelchair accessibility: Decent accessibility and tables you can fit a wheelchair around.

Our family decided to try a new place to eat and so we came to Cosmo's... I want to be able to recommend this place because the food was delicious.. but I saw a waitress (not sure of name but she was tall and had brunette hair with blonde streaks and had tattoos on her right arm) I watched another waitress cut a piece of cake for a customer and this waitress I mentioned, I saw her take pieces of the cake from the platter and eat it with her bare hands then proceeded to lick her fingers and grab another piece.... if she does this in front of public I'm terrified to know what happens where the public can't see. We also waited over 10 minutes to get our bill and boxes and they weren't that busy at this time. Won't be back.

The food i ordered on the menu did not list cheese as an ingredient but there was cheese on my omelet i didn't ask them to remake it. Just would have liked to know it came with cheese too ask it not be put on my order. The wait was a little long but the food was good.
When we checked out I waited for 2 minutes for one of the 2 woman sitting behind the counter to acknowledge me but they were both on their phones. So i had to say excuse me can you check us out please.
We will return if in the area again.
