Gateway Family Diner Reviews
very good food. and friendly service.
been here twice and highly disappointed both visits. Salad Lettuce slime, rotted. soup with greasy film laying on top. noodles in soup brown and nasty. Get a new cook or you won't be in business very long. Hunterstown diner has much much better food
there was a time when I would recommend this diner to everyone. however, in recent weeks, the service has been atrocious at best. we have been weekly loyal customers since it opened. today, we were sat at table 16 and ignored by everyone. table behind us, apparently friends of the waitress all had drinks before we were ever greeted. finally we were able to order, only to be forgotten again. never dreamed we would walk out of here. they need to get the original staff back at...read full review

Gateway Family Diner is a bright and clean restaurant located within walking distance of two hotels. The extensive menu offers a variety of large, tasty portions that cater to different tastes, including popular items like the crab cake meal and a wide selection of cakes, cheesecakes, and pies for dessert. The atmosphere is pleasant and inviting, making it a good spot for groups.
The service from the staff is a highlight, with several servers such as Shannon and Abby providing friendly, thorough, and efficient assistance, especially when navigating the large menu. Customers often praise the helpfulness and patience of the servers, which significantly enhances their dining experience.
However, the diner has some issues. The management, owned and operated by an Egyptian family, has been reported to be rude and loud in the kitchen. There are concerns about hygiene, as restrooms sometimes have full hygiene bins and empty paper towel dispensers. Some food orders, like the omelet and eggs, occasionally do not meet expectations, with issues such as missing cheese or overcooked yolks.
Overall, Gateway Family Diner offers good food and excellent service but is marred slightly by management and cleanliness concerns.
