This place is always amazing! We’ve only been here for breakfast multiple times and we keep coming back. They have a good selection for adults and children.

Disgusting breakfast. Chicken fried steak was the worst quality I’ve ever seen, clearly the cheapest freezer option they make. I’d rather have great value frozen country fried steak or a banquet one, it was that bad. It smelled and tasted like fish so they also need to clean their oil. The hash brown casserole is clearly made from either from frozen or premade from the week and reheated. My daughter never complains anywhere, couldn’t eat the eggs, said they didn’t taste like egg and were awful.
Also they only had Mexican hot sauce, that I would use on tacos, not breakfast, no Tabasco, and the cheapest brand possible Valentinos. Weird for an American breakfast joint.
All to say, we split one breakfast meal and each had a drink and it was $27 before tip!!! Insane!

Great Burger. I wish the place had a real dining area but the food was so good and cooked fresh that it really didn't bother me in the end. Definitely a go to place for a diner type meal. Very good!

My friend and I were looking for a spot to grab a quick lunch and catch up on some business, and since we were both in the mood for a diner, we ended up at Uncle John’s American Diner in Goodlettsville.
The Vibe: We arrived a little after 2 p.m., knowing they closed at 3, so the team was already starting to wind things down and close off part of the dining room. The place looks and feels exactly like you’d expect from a classic diner, simple, casual, and comfortable. It was clean, which I always appreciate. The only small quirk was that our booth table sat a little off-center, so we had to do a quick adjustment, but no big deal.
Service: Our server looked like he might’ve just started, honestly, he couldn’t have been more than 12 (lol). You could tell he was new and nervous, but very polite and trying hard. When I ordered the breakfast croissant, he quickly said they were out, and another server jumped in to help clarify part of my friend’s order. Despite the small hiccups, everything was handled kindly, and he was genuinely nice.
Food & Drinks: I went with the Breakfast Burrito, and it was good, nothing to write home about, but solid. The scrambled eggs were super fluffy, which stood out, and the salsa had good flavor. My friend ordered the Cowboy Eggs (two eggs over crispy tortillas with refried beans, cheese, and avocado). He felt the same, decent, but standard. He also mentioned his coffee wasn’t hot, more “end-of-day warm,” lol, which fit the late-afternoon timing. On the drive back, he said something didn’t sit quite right afterward, which was unusual for him.
Overall: It was fine for what it was, clean, friendly, and typical diner fare, but nothing that would make me want to stop in again, even if I were close by.

Uncle John's is a classic American diner. Great food, friendly service (they were very short staffed when we were there for breakfast, but they did their best and we were satisfied). Both my wife and I left food on our plates - very unusual! Great big servings of amazing diner fare.
Great American style breakfast diner, all the classics and you never leave hungry!
