My friend and I went to Amsterdam Diner for lunch this week. We found the menu very typical for a diner. The restaurant was very clean, staff were very friendly and overall a great experience! I tried their eggs Benedict and loved them. My friend had the Rubin and was also pleased with the taste. They are only open until 3:00 daily, yet they do serve dinner meals also. Give them a try! read more

Amsterdam Diner - Eggs Benedict - Soup Near Me - Amsterdam, New York

I love a good diner and this was it. It has many tables and booths so seating is not a problem. It was busy, but the staff were attentive and friendly. Our order was placed within a few minutes of sitting down. My husband loves a good breakfast no matter what time of day. The sausage links were delicious. They had a mild flavor not too spicy. Glad we stopped and we'll be back again when we r in the area. read more

Used to go here a lot with my elderly neighbor. Have not gone in years as the food is horribly bland and unappetizing.

I might sound like a hypocrite, since I keep coming back to this place, but that is mainly due to its decent breakfast, convenient location, and relatively fast/friendly service. However, for me this very large diner/mid-tier restaurant falls short by: 1). Lunch isn't as good as breakfast & is wildly Inconsistent; 2). If you ask to substitute ANYTHING, they annoyingly up-charge even when its way less costly than the standard accompaniment, e.g., Buffalo sauce instead of BBQ for the chicken fingers, or 50 cents for a thimble of hot sauce instead of sour cream and salsa on quesadilla. Menu is expansive. read more

First time here on a busy Sunday morning, and I really like this place. We were greeted within a minute, seated quickly and Morgan our server was very personable! Our food was delicious and this may be our new breakfast place!!! read more

We live close by to this restaurant and visit often for breakfast or lunch. The diner is very clean, the food is always fresh and delicious, and the service is fast. We were looking for a quick and inexpensive restaurant to take approx 30 people out to breakfast after a Baptism. One of the owners worked with us to make up a specific menu to accommodate our large party, and assured our privacy in the back room. Highly recommend! read more

I went there with my family, and we possibly had the worst experience that I've ever had in my life. The food was not good at all because it was brought out almost an hour after we ordered it, so I'm sure it was sitting there for a while the waitress that we had was an older woman who did not seem to know exactly what she was doing so it ended up being where we got our orders in late we got our food late. Everything that could possibly go wrong with that situation. Did go wrong. And the problem that, we had the most with this is that when we spoke to the manager about it, the manager defended the Person stating that they couldn't help the fact that it was too long and that everything was fine and that we were the ones that were wrong. I'm sorry over an hour for your food and then getting it and having it being cold means that something is missing in the process. There's people that came in after us that sat down with other waitresses and got their food before us. We were a party of four and they were a party of eight and they got their food all of it before us and we're getting up to leave before we even got our food started. The place itself did not look bad it looked pretty clean. I was totally turned off by the service. It really made it so that I will never go back there again. If you're ever in the area, give him him a try maybe you'll have a different experience than I did. I hope you do. Thank you so much for listening. read more

Hated this diner 5 years ago. Went back begrudgingly a few months ago and things have certainly changed. The service is amazing fast. The food now has flavor. You can be in and out in under a half hour if you want. The serving sizes and value are on point. All in all, a really good place to grab breakfast. The only weird thing is that they use ketchup packs instead of a bottle on the table. Seems like a huge waste to have people go through 10 packs of ketchup for their omelet and has browns. Would certainly be easier for the customer with the bottle, but that's a super minor. read more

Great service for starters. The place is enormous so bring your baseball team. Had 2 eggs Benedict, home fries and sausage and biscuits. Sausage and gravy along with hollandaise sauce seemed to be store bought. The biscuit was hockey puck hard. The staff and service were amazing!! read more

Never had a bad experience here with food & drink, hygiene, staff or atmosphere. It's a nice diner for a quick stop belly full deal. read more

Big party seated with hardly any wait. Our waitress was amazing (wish I caught her name). The food was amazing! I had the patty melt - sooo good! And the sweet potato fries - yum! Highly recommend read more

Despite many open booths, and a table in the corner, our server decided to sit us squarely at the one table situated in between the doors that separate the front and back dining rooms where foot traffic passes by. The food came out in about 5 minutes leaving one to wonder if it was pre- prepared. Toast was saturated with butter making it inedible, and was unevenly cooked, one piece not toasted and another piece burnt, omelette was kind of dry, but all in all, good enough grub for the price when you need to eat and run. read more

Diner-wise "It's the best!" Wife and I have stopped in for late breakfast several times over the last year or so. We have found the food to always be prepared the way we asked, and good! Although always busy we have never had to wait more than a minute or two. Wait staff are friendly and and attentive. It's a fairly sizable place and they do host several civic groups. ABSOLUTELY NO COMPLAINTS AND MANY COMPLEMENTS! read more

I stopped here with a colleague before a business meeting in the AM. I love to talk with the waitresses when I can and she knew we were here to eat and get to our meetings, so no chit chat. The service was perfect, food was hot, as ordered and delivered quick, and was perfectly cooked as expected. I will definitely stop here again for the cleanliness and friendly professional staff, read more

I have been here a few times over the years, futile giving it another chance. There is ALWAYS A PROBLEM when I go there. I imagine other people feel the same way but, they just don't want to 'cause problems'. I have had hockey puck burgers, disgusting chicken parm, utterly bland, tasteless breakfast. Which was my last attempt at letting them redeem themselves. This morning I got a 5a omelette with American cheese, mushrooms, peppers and onions. Two sides of breakfast link sausage. I specifically stated I do not want home fries or any other potato. The omelet was just fried egg matter with no flavor at all. The sausage was bland somewhat breakfast sausage tasting pork matter. The home fries, I did not want, were mush. I called to tell them that, I cannot eat this. I made it through 1/3 of it and I just can't do it. It's horrible. And the hostess said no one else complains and she doesn't know what my problem is. They don't give money back I guess. Scumbags. Horrible food. I threw the breakfast out in the woods. The crows can eat it. Never go here. The positive reviews are from sycophants with no spine. read more

Amsterdam Diner - a broken sign in the snow - Soup Near Me - Amsterdam, New York

Update!!! We came here for breakfast and I have to say- the food was MUCH better than last time! My eggs were perfect, the pancakes were fluffy and delicious, the home fries just as crispy and tasty as I could hope for. Even my FIL raves about his steak and eggs. I am thrilled to report that whatever changes they have made have been for the better! I will no longer wrinkle my nose when someone suggests this place for breakfast! read more

Always great service and a wide variety of menu options. Very large and spacious space inside so you don't feel like you're cramped for space. read more

Used to be a lot better but it has really gone downhill and this was not a good experience. My wife ordered the spinach pie which is something she loves. It states on the menu it comes with soup AND greek salad, rice, and bread and butter. The waiter told us no we had to pick soup or salad. I asked for greek salad as it states on the menu. He acted like he was doing us a favor because it's normally a regular salad. Was getting annoyed at the attitude at this point but whatever. When the meal arrived the spinach pie and rice were beyond well done and by that I mean dried out. Some of the rice was crunchy and the spinach was hard in some places. We were in a hurry and the waiter had disappeared so she ate the edible parts. The bread and butter never arrived despite asking. Now onto my meal. I got a bagel with lox and some hash browns. I told the waiter I wanted the bagel visibly toasted and the hash browns very crispy all the way through. When it arrived the bagel was warmed up not toasted and the hash browns were cooked on the surface but completely raw underneath. When we finally got ahold of the waiter we told him we were not happy. Most of the food was uneaten but we had to go. We were told yeah it would not have been more cooked (as far as my hash browns) if we sent it back. At the register we complained to the woman who I think is an owner and she would not make any adjustment to the bill. No tip was left. We will not return. Terrible customer service and poor attitudes. read more

Prime rib special was juicy and full of flavor, my husband had the clam strips, kids had spaghetti with meatball and a cheeseburger. Everyone enjoyed their meal, and the portions were generous, even the kids had good sized meals! Deserts were outstanding. We had the carrot cake and rice pudding. Service was very friendly as well. Definitely recommend! read more

Love this place. Frequent it quite a bit, but lately, with all the covid restrictions, the lack of help and more, the diner is hit or miss with being open or closed. I understand these things can't be helped, but update info pages like yelp and/or Facebook. Kind of stink when you drive across town to your favorite diner and it's closed. On to the food. We can't get enough. The food comes out perfect every time we eat there. I'm not a huge menu jumper, but I have tried things here that are not on my comfort list and it's perfect every single time. Staff is more than polite and you can see the inner working of this place taking care of every task imaginable. Highly recommend this place. We drive roughly 10 miles to go here and there are closer diners to us. That's how good it is here. read more

Always a great place to go after along day, it's a great place for picky eaters and kids and also for food fanatics it serves Pepsi not coke if you are interested in that sorta thing. read more

Sunday morning on our way home from camp my husband and I stopped for breakfast. I ordered Homemade biscuit with sausage gravy and scrambled egg. I got a bowl of,I can't even explain what it was Burnted toast with some type of warm milk and a hunk of egg floating on the arm milk I asked the waitress what is this and where is my biscuit she said Oh we ran out of Biscuits I took 2 bites it was Disgusting I had to stop along side of the road and vomit . When the waitress asked is it OK I said No I go charged for it anyway Never Again !!!!!, read more

This was my first time eating there. We waited 15 minutes for our drink order to be taken. After that the waitress took our order. I ordered a cinnamon roll (grilled) and a oatmeal. I asked for brown sugar and was charged for it. Halfway into my oatmeal, I asked the waitress for more brown sugar. I took a bite of the cinnamon roll and it tasted like grilled onions! Yuck! My husband had soup and it want warm at all. She never brought me the brown sugar or drink refill. She came over after a while and asked if I wanted a box, I said no that it's cold and you never brought me the brown sugar. She rolled her eyes and brought bill, no thanks or anything! Never will eat there again!! read more

This is a diner done the right way. Super clean. Very big menu. Food was fantastic our waitress was so friendly and helpful all around great experience and welcoming atmosphere. I will definitely be back when I am in the area. read more

No longer a fan. Two people can't order waffles from the same table. They have one waffle iron and you have to wait for your friend to get her waffle and when she's done eating yours might come out by then. I've gotten the wrong order there. A friend recently got beef gravy on her pork dinner. When she complained they took it in wiped it off and put turkey gravy on it. She refused to eat the meal. But they still charged her for the mail because she ate the salad. Then she refused to pay the bill we got nasty with her. I wouldn't go there if it was the last restaurant in Amsterdam. read more

I had breakfast there and the sausage was rotten & rancid the server failed to acknowledge the problem the worst server ever the only thing that saved my experience was the lady busting tables came over to apologize to me for the breakfast and said she would let the cook know about the bad sausage she was the star! The server sucked !!!!! read more

Wow food was cold server rolled eyes, ordered a side and charged full price for the entire breakfast, only got a bisquit and paid $7. Manager didnt care. They must be desperate for money read more

So disappointed! Took my son and daughter for lunch. Son got chicken parm. It was a thin previously frozen breaded piece of cardboard. It was smothered with melted mozzarella. 90percent cheese/10percent some kind of chicken product. I ordered a burger with swiss. Medium. I was hoping for a big fat juicy burger. What I got was a very flat, over cooked, disgusting thing on a bun. One thing slice of cheese. No lettuce or tomato. Turns out I had to tell her I wanted lettuce and tomato. My daughter ordered a blt club with fries. Her fries we typical diner fries. Not bad. Her sandwich was average because most of the toast was burnt. Paid over $40. Wish I told them how gross everything was, but it's almost xmas and I'm trying to be nice...not naughty. Will never go back there and recommend strongly you don't go there either. read more

I would give this place more stars, but for their complete hostility to substitutions. I have some minor allergies, so I couldn't have the rolls, soup, or the carrots (vegetable of the day) that come as sides for the pork chops. To "substitute" broccoli for carrots they charged me $2.50 extra--according to the waiter the same price as if the broccoli were in addition to the carrots. The chops tasted fine but were tough. The broccoli was overlooked and a little mushy. Fries and salad were fine. Server was attentive. So on balance, the food was not atypical of diners, but the management is grasping and not particularly hospitable. read more

Always great service and diner food. New signs up supporting mask mandate hooray! Sad to see our waitress wearing a politically based cloth mask. She's lovely btw, please keep staff safe with surgical masks or N95. And keep politics out of my meal please. read more

Stopped for breakfast on our way back from a Mass. Vaca.....the place is dated & dirty.....not in a rustic dive kind of way....We had a server who was very inexperienced....only came by once to check on drinks & our order....we ordered a Greek omelet and they forgot the feta cheese...we asked for them to correct it and they did nothing...they just said it was a certain cook and if they said something to him it would cause problems. Do yourself a favor and pick another location for dining...even a Dunkin Donuts breakfast would have been better.... read more

Solid diner food. Nothing out of this world but if you are after some yummy diner fare then this place does a good job. Hearty portion sizes at good prices. My chicken souvlaki was pretty good. Pita was good, chicken could have had a bit more flavor, and the tzatziki was good as well. Everyone else's food looked a bit better. Waffles and pancakes were looking light and fluffy and eggs Benedict looked pretty well prepared. I think it's a pretty good spot for Amsterdam. Would venture back when I'm in town. read more

Out with Hubby for a much needed date night and could not have gone out for a more impressive dinner!! He started with an amazing New England Clam Chowder while I enjoyed a generously sized garden salad with homemade Greek dressing that was totally to die for! Hubby (Vic) then enjoyed one of the freshest turkey club sandwiches and cut to order fries he has ever had! (And he's not an easy one to please! lol) I decided to order one of the daily specials (and am soo glad I did!!) I absolutely flipped over the shrimp and lobster ravioli (OMG)!!!!! ...... and did I mention the ravioli was ENTIRELY HOMEMADE!!! I have to say that there is something uplifting, yet oh-so-humbling about being presented with homemade pasta...especially in an AMAZING white butter and garlic, cream sauce and filled with fresh lobster??!!! So... Just as we were both enjoying the rest of our delicious, freshly brewed Iced teas, our server presented me with the last course of what was included with my "daily special" meal, a slice of their "absolutely to die for!!" cheesecake! Our server was so gracious and patient! She didn't bat an eye when Vic ordered a side order of mayo for his turkey club (lol), or when I asked to take my salad and desert home to enjoy tomorrow. (It's always a little awkward to explain that I have had gastric bypass). To top off our memorable experience, the owner herself came over to our table to introduce herself and to ask about our experience. How many times has THAT happened in your lifetime??!! read more

The people who work there can not do much right. I ordered open turkey sandwich with fries and gravy. I received gravy over sour mashed potatoes with bbq sauce on the side. I had gotten ill from the mashed potatoes on the way home. only 3 miles away. I will never return there again. read more

We had a great lunch here. It's right on the highway and easy to spot. They were very welcoming to our large party, including kids. The menu was extensive with everything from soup/salad to sandwiches to liver and onions. The chicken tortilla soup was outstanding. There's even a separate room in the back that I'm sure could be used for gatherings or meetings. Service was attentive and friendly and the food was fresh and tasty. We will definitely be back next time we're in the area. read more

Good food and fast service. Stopped for lunch and had the Manhattan Clam Chowder for lunch and it appeared to home made. Had the Peanut Butter Pie for desert....slice was the right size....not too big. Overall a good place to eat and will stop their again. Place was very clean. read more

Even if it was free, it's not worth your time. It's complete garbage and that's how my wife and were treated. I ordered the Greek omelet with hash browns and rye toast. What I got was not an omelet. It was over cooked scrambled eggs with a couple pieces of feta cheese mixed in. The hash browns were big cubed chunks of mealy dry potatoes. Believe it or not, they even screwed up the toast ( I didn't know that was possoble). It was very stale rye bread with what I assume was butter on it. I would have let the waitress know but she never came back to check on us or even give us the bill. I don't blame her, I'd be embarrassed to serve this crap to anyone let alone have the nerve to charge for it. We simply went to the cashier told her were we were seated and paid the bill. She didn't ask if everything was ok. She simple ran our card and didn't even make eye contact or thank us for coming in. It felt like we were annoying her for trying to pay our bill. They should be ashamed and embarrassed. This place sucks. read more

Clean. Adequate parking. The waitress was nice and on top of refilling our drinks which is always nice. We had sandwiches and fries. It was all tasty, hot and fresh. $25 was the damage which was more than reasonable. Definitely worth a stop. read more

Ok place to grab lunch. Nothing extreme...good or bad. Prices are good and the food is decent. Service is good. I've never really had a bad experience here with the wait staff. The place has gone through several ownerships and it kinda seems like the customer base has gone done with each turn of ownership. I've actually never had dinner here as most of my visits have been lunch meetings. I've gone here for breakfast with he fam occasionally as well. IMO, the breakfast here is hands down the way to go if your thinking of trying this place out. In the end, it's nothing to brag about but it's not a dump either. read more
