Empire Diner

"Old fashioned diner. Small and cozy. Excellent, attentive service; everyone was very warm and friendly. Sat in a booth by the window (we were free to choose), and wee served quickly. Food was just okay. Bathrooms were spotless. I would return. "

"A good, old-fashioned diner. Excellent staff and a good variety. One of the few earing places that you can actually drink the water without the nasty aftertaste. I'm definitely coming g back to this hidden gem."

"EMPIRE (diner) STRIKES BACK At least for me, I mean between the movie and this restaurant; I was full like a wookie. I would highly recommend the Spinach Fedda Cheese Omelette with home fries, delicious. Omelette looked like a painting (photo enclosed). Seating tables arrangements and booths comfortable. *Men's Bathroom, clean with one urinal and one tolid. Ample size parking lot. Steps from the HICKSVILLE LIRR STATION and NICE BUS N80. I actually had a nice delicious experience. Come hungry and tell them the Guru sent you The Review Guru* Long Island NY"

"Absolutely stunning diner, the decor was both nostalgic and classy, down to the individual jukeboxes at the tables. (Wonderful sight, incredibly awesome to be able to flip through the selection! They're incredibly well maintained, despite their age.) As for food, we had ordered the super breakfast, and I personally had a two egg meal, over easy, with home fries and bacon. The yolk ran perfectly, and they took great care not to burn the edges, something that happens often when judging a food establishment for the first time. My date said his meal was amazing as well, and all we took home was toast. (A rarity for me, as I'm a light eater!) The staff are warm and welcoming, and it's clear they care about their regulars. I instantly felt relaxed and excited to eat since reception, and the ambiance was soothing, hearing the regulars chat and laugh amongst themselves. The staff were also more than understanding about me wishing to finish a coffee I had picked up earlier, and I fully intend to return to try theirs as a thank you. You don't find that hospitality often! All in all, this was a wonderful experience, both for a date, and I imagine for a family meal as well. My brunch was amazing today, thanks to Arlene, so if she serves your table, you're bound to leave full and happy. I'm dying to bring my parents here for a meal, so I'll let that excitement speak for itself. It's a one of a kind experience, one that I recommend everyone try at least once."

"We enjoyed the food. The service left alot to be desired. There is a lady at the bar that seemed to be very sweet. Luckily she saw a sausage on the floor and asked our waitress if she dropped one. She went to the back and brought one out right to our table. She knew she had dropped it but had no intention of bringing me another one. If the young lady at the bar had not spoken loud enough for us to hear, she probably would not have. The dry "sorry" let me know that she could not have cared less. I will give it another try but that waitress will be off limits."

"My father and I visited for the first time. We live very locally and have been curious to try it. We were not disappointed. We were greeted warmly and served attentively. The atmosphere is charming and kept very clean. My dad ordered the French toast deluxe and truly enjoyed it. It was fluffy, juicy, and satisfying. I had the Mediterranean omelette. It was very flavorful and fluffy as well. Not every diner is created equal. The lovely woman behind the counter told us this establishment is at least 60 years old. It's such a slice of nostalgia. We had an even better experience than we anticipated. I hope they are a mainstay for years to come. What a treat. Really looking forward to our next breakfast there!"

"Came here for lunch the other day and was really impressed by the service and taste of the food! Our server was really nice and the food was good. I'll definitely be coming back!"
