Every time I come down to Richmond visiting friends and family this is my must go to place.From the moment I enter this place I feel the warmth and the southern hospitality of the waitresses who do not hesitate to accommodate me and sit me down and make me feel at home,they all have a very cheery and homely demeanor with a smile on their face.And the food is delicious,I had ordered a meal of pancakes,bacon with scrambled eggs.Pancakes are big size with that buttermilk taste,nice and fluffy,bacon is alright but they can go a little easy on the salt tho.Scrambled eggs are very fresh and well done.The place is always clean and kept up,my only gripe is that they close so early.It would be nice if they extend the hours for dinner,other than that it's a very wonderful place not only for their food but for their ability to make their customers feel at home.

My family and I went for breakfast after getting off of a long road trip, and no one wanted to cook once we got home. I walked in the waitress and asked how many ppl in my party I told her 4, but my husband is parking the car she made us wait until he came inside before we were sat. That mad no sense because clearly we.are.going to eat her, whether it's 3 or 4 of us, and don't say because of seating. The only thing open was booths. We sat down and ordered drinks that took forever to come back to the table. When we got our food, it didn't taste as expected. My French toast was good, but everything else was mediocre. My kids love breakfast food, and they barely touched their food. My husband was unsatisfied with his food as well. My husband and I used to frequent this place years ago, but again, maybe the kitchen staff has changed because the food just wasn't it this time.

We were looking for a typical American diner here in Richmond, we found this place. It was what we were expecting for. We could have eaten and cooked at home but we wanted the experience like what we see on TV. The place is cute and clean (nothing fancy but that is what we wanted). Food was good and generous portions. Tracy was very nice but all of her colleagues were also nice, smiling and welcoming. They always check on you if you need any coffee refills or anything of sort. Will come back next time. Thank you City Diner for giving us a lovely experience!
City Diner in Richmond was a solid choice for brunch with friends. The food was delicious, with everything fresh, flavorful, and served quickly. It’s a great spot for a classic brunch. However, the service was lacking. Our server was inattentive, and it took a while to get refills or any check-in at our table. If the service matched the quality of the food, this would easily be a five-star spot. Still worth visiting for the food alone.

One of the best breakfast 🌯 I have ever had and some truly damn fine ☕. I also loved the atmosphere, truly representative of a classic diner. David Lynch would have loved this place.
