My daughter and I went to Atlantic diner for the first time and we were pretty excited to ordered a banana split. We were asked if we wanted the works on the ice cream which consisted of chocolate syrup, walnuts, whipped cream, sprinkles, cherries and bananas. Unfortunately, we got nothing but vanilla ice cream a few walnuts, a couple of slices of banana and whipped cream. We were disappointed and only ate less than half. I guess Atlantic Diner isn't the place to go to when you're craving a banana split! read more

Atlantic Diner - Vanilla ice cream, walnuts and whipped cream. - American Near Me - Richmond Hill, New York

Service was awful. Absolutely distasteful. Our server Mary was not intent on giving patience, not speaking up and thus getting irritated when WE couldn't hear HER, the menu apparently is not written correctly if I can order a hot chocolate but you can only get one size unless it's takeout-WHICH IT DOESN'T SPECIFY, made a comment on the food we were ordering in comparison to our group, never checked on us, ignored me the first time I tried to let her know we needed the bill so I needed to try again-EVEN THOUGH SHE WAS LOOKING DIRECTLY AT US, and lastly I had to go up to pay the bill when usually someone comes to handle the transaction. As a former waitress and someone who has worked other customer service jobs, this was not it. I would 100% not operate like that and have never. The food was not as great as it was last week, either. The service alone will not allow me to return after being a frequent visitor of 8 years! Hard pass for me. read more

Very cute and retro. But it the taste for me. Stick to burgers and fries. Don't get to experimental with the menu

Food was very good. I went on a Sunday so it was packed but the service could've been quicker. The restaurant was very loud for a Sunday @ mid day but other than that very clean. read more

What an adventure in disappointment. Been coming to this diner over 40 years. The ambiance is fine. Brought grandma and daughter for dinner. Gramma ordered omelette with hash browns. It came with two over-fried dollar store frozen hash browns. My gyro platter came with over-fried onion rings and the gyro lamb was hard enough to eat as jerky. But over 40 years, you can't expect perfection every time. However.. When I bought this to the attention of the waiter, his response was " I only serve the food. " He said he'd bring the manager who never came. No offer to take anything off the $82 bill. I paid at the counter and said I wouldn't pay to for service and food. Cashier turned away completely indifferent. I used to take clients and public officials to eat here. NEVER AGAIN!!! Classic on Jamaica and Esquire on Woodhaven will graciously have my business from now on. read more

I like diners for the variety cuisine of food listed in the menu. Ahh.. diners is the embodiment of American optimism and nostalgia for a sense of comfort, sustainability and stability. Breakfast served all day adds another positive aspect to the American diner experience. It has been a long while since I had Belgian waffles. Belgian waffles with turkey sausage accompanied with butter and syrup $14.50 which was a good value. Customer service is average and attentive as I dine alone. Atmospheric conditions are of standard American diner - relaxed and family oriented. Thankfully, no boisterously loud music here. Takeout menu is available for grabs as well as a catering menu. The takeout menu is a full-scale menu selection in a booklet form like a event program. Note: This diner operates 24 hours. read more

Food- 3/5 Service- 3.5/5 Ambiance- 4/5 Overall I'd give Atlantic Diner a solid 3/5. Let's start with the food. Everything tasted pretty standard. The broccoli had no flavor. The home fries were okay. The service was good. We had to stop other servers a few times, and the staff seemed like they were okay with it. I'm sure they're used to it. It was nonstop crowded and also a Sunday so I don't know if that made a difference. The seating was tight and the diner looks to hold about 50 people in the front dining area where I sat. Thumb up and would return. If you're looking for a larger portioned, moderately priced, basic breakfast, stop by! read more

i'm not a huge fan of diners, but I'm happy they're still around. Whenever I get my car in for an oil change, I always come to this diner. It is solid. And today I had a perfect scrambled egg with ham on a roll. And a very nice cup of coffee. The staff is very nice and efficient. The place is clean. read more

THE MANGER IS RACIST!!!! I ordered shrimp and scallop scampi. I had one bite of the scallop and it was spoiled. I then proceeded to smell it and it smelled like ammonia. I decided to go to the manager and speak to him very respectfully. He went and got the food then ate it and said there's nothing wrong with it. He started yelling at me, and proceeded to tell me that I don't know food. That I am the type to order a bacon egg and cheese. Which was extremely racist. By the way I'm lactose. He assumed that just because I'm a women of color. Very unprofessional and disgusting. read more

I gave this place 3 starts for being able to accommodate a large group on short notice. We all gathered here after a funeral to eat and catchup. The service was all over the place. When we first got there they seemed to be very attentive but as time went on they slowly began to fade and become nonexistent. I ordered the chicken parmigiana panini which had very little resemblance to a panini. The bread was hero bread with thin strips of chicken cutlet that couldn't accommodate the excessive amount of hero bread, with mozzarella cheese. The marinara sauce has absorbed into the bread and therefore made the "panini" super dry. I had to ask for a side of marinara to help with the dryness. When a place has pages upon pages of menu items, it's probably not going to be a good experience. Or maybe that's just my experience. Call the dish what it really is but don't slap chicken on hero bread, throw it under a panini press that can't fit the amount of bread and then call it a panini. Lastly, the prices are RIDICULOUSLY unreasonable. I seen an egg salad sandwich with bacon for $14.95. I'm one and done with this spot. read more

server was wonderful, diner very clean and comfortable. omelette a little overdone, Cuban panini was made with old looking pork and way too much mustard...also overcooked and too crunchy. Philly cheese steak was roast beef...enough said about that. fries were good. chicken parm panini excellent. read more

It's in the corner of a busy street but they conveniently have a parking garage. I had the two eggs over medium with turkey sausage and fries, the food did not please my taste buds especially the turkey sausage. The Shirley temple was nasty bland and tasted like seltzer. The fries were fries and the appetizer sampler was just frozen fried food whatever. The cost and the flavor do not go together. The waitress was sweet and attentive and the place looks clean but I'm not going back. read more

Ambiance was calm, clean and organized. The bathrooms were clean. The dinner for 2 was a steal, $43 included an app, soup, main course, dessert w/ coffee. highly recommend. read more

Food is always good here. Fantastic customer service. Beautiful looking diner. Excellent burgers. Love this place

I've probably been here three times in my lifetime and the food was always average for your typical diner. Most recently, I got a philly cheese steak with fries and a brownie sundae on UberEATS. For one, the cheese steak came on a roll instead of a hero which did surprise me but it wasn't the end of the world. The cheese steak itself was very average at best though, as it didn't taste much like a cheesesteak. In fact, the sandwich really didn't taste like much at all if I'm being honest. It was basically a roast beef sandwich with cheese and onions which I actually wouldn't have minded too much if it had more taste. The fries that came with it were pretty good though. The brownie sundae that I ordered was great though, no complaints about that. Prices are average as well, definitely not too bad. read more

Arrived to have breakfast, at 6am coming from a party. So already tired and hungry. Was seated right away. Perfect. But the wait for a waiter was long, after he came his English wasn't all to well. He brought us our coffee, which didn't taste like coffee, it was very watery. We placed our orders which also took a little longer. Excited to eat the food. The home fries was tasteless, needed salt, the eggs wasn't cooked how I asked it to be made. The omelette that our friend order came with a special " a hair " which was totally disgusting to see, we then called upon to speak to the manager whom at the time was very nasty to us. He wasn't professional at all. Would definitely not be going back to this establishment. read more

I've been ordering from Atlanta dinner for home delivery for year's, however the prices got so expensive and the quantity of the food isn't worth it, today I ordered a blt and a cheese burger without fries, and Snapple Iced Teas,my bill came to $29.95 that's insane, and the burger had no flavor. Listen I'm not a cheap person, however I would never order anything from the Atlantic diner ever again read more

AVOID THIS PLACE AT ANY TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!! food is overpriced, waitress got my order wrong and they charge extra for takeout! Who does that? When I complained, the owner comes out with glasses on with the tape in the middle of his glasses. Is he really that cheap that he can't afford a decent pair of glasses? The menu is a joke, who has a menu with several pages and on the back page it shows that they charge extra for takeout (because they're so cheap they feel that it's extra money for them). What about if you were to sit down and eat, do you charge extra for the dishes you eat on? It's better if you eat at another restaurant like Friendly's or Texas Roadhouse where the food is cheaper and they don't charge you extra for takeout. read more

It's a diner...extensive diner menu! The best thing about this place is that it's open 24/7.

Recently celebrated my fathers birthday here and we had such an amazing time. My family has been attending this diner for the past idk 20 years, and it always feels like home. It's big, so there's always good seating available. It's clean, and the staff is super friendly. Once you go in you'll notice it's very colorful and well kept. The hostess is right once you enter so you're immediately greeted. Once your seated you get your menus and it's all uphill from there. We ordered my dad the t one steak topped with a mushroom cap, a baked potato and a corona. My wife and I ordered strawberry margaritas ( which are delicious) along side their spinach dip and chips. I LOVE their dip. My sister and niece ordered chicken tenders and fries and had enough to split amongst the two of them. This place reminds me of why I love diners so much. They become your family. The waiters learned about us, asked what our native language was and made sure to make us feel right at home. This diner has been apart of my family for decades and I'm sure it always will be! read more

Atlantic Diner - American Near Me - Richmond Hill, New York

Let's start off by stating that our waitress did not deserve an 18% service charge, the busser deserved it and should 100% go to him. Patrons beware and review your receipt before tipping, it is already included whether or not your service was disappointing. Our waitress brought out one of our orders, the "Bagel All The Way" which included cream cheese, so we had to ask for that which was fine. It's one thing forgetting an item, especially if you're servicing multiple tables, it's another when you're stepping halfway out of the door to take a pull from your vape which she did repeatedly. It's also another thing when your busser is more attentive and checks up on your table more times than she did combined. They may have a system at this diner, but when we asked her from across the room for refills, the busser brought them over while she just stood against the counter. If as a business you decide to charge off the bat a service charge, at least see to it that your servers actually deserve it. read more

bad customer service.They have no standards when is comes to customer service. The owner himself treats customers like animals so I wouldn't expect better from the employees. The food was decent, big shoutout to the cook. read more

Very nice and peaceful good food as well. Staff is friendly. Bus stops right in front of business Q24.

In New York City on business, after arriving in JFK around lunchtime we opted for a diner for lunch. I grew up in New Jersey and diners were an integral part of my upbringing and formative years. Breakfast with your parents, late night meals after a night at the nightclubs, diners seemed to be a part of some great memories. This diner has the classic look and feel of a diner. Service was casual and friendly. Probably my most frequently ordered food at a diner was the Pizza Burger Deluxe, a burger topped with tomato sauce and mozzarella cheese served with french fries, coleslaw, and possibly a few onion rings. So, my roadmap of memories demanded I get this personally iconic meal. Along with it, I also ordered an Atlantic chowder, a Manhattan clam chowder that the diner felt it was important to make their namesake soup. The soup was pretty good and served with sliced bread I stead of the standard bag of oyster crackers, truly a nice touch and gave you a feeling of indulgence. While I prefer the creamy New England style clam chowder, the tomato based broth of the Manhattan style clam chowder is a nice alternative and, as a side note, was my father's favorite way of having clam chowder (another memory connection). The Pizza Burger Deluxe was also good. It captured my memories of late nights and youth, of innocent childhood, and made me also realize what made me love this style of burger in the first place. Tomato sauce and mozzarella perfectly compliment a burger. One of my dining companions had t but e turkey club and it looked pretty amazing, as well. If you find yourself in this neighborhood, this is a good choice for a meal. I recommend a visit. read more

Atlantic Diner - Chefs Salad Platter - American Near Me - Richmond Hill, New York

Atlantic Diner is not quite the flashy New Jersey style diner, but it is a place with style. It's well appointed with an undersea motif, good ambiance, and 90s music playing in the background. Right now it's George Michael. The upholstery is a little worse for the wear. Though probably not dating quite to the 90s. I'm here at 5:30 on a Friday afternoon and must have beat the rush. Seating and service were prompt and professional. The menu spans the gamut in typical diner fashion. One of the views looks across Queens Boulevard. As the people of Queens parade by in pursuit of work, pleasure and the mundane tasks of life, I realize how much they are a Cross section of the world. Hundreds of languages, races, nationalities, cultures and subcultures.... crammed together in the small space that is New York City; rubbing shoulders throughout the day, everyday - and living in peace. No need for government mandated equity and inclusion. The people of Queens have been doing that successfully, naturally and peaceably for 100 years.... Top-down intrusion in the name of inclusion never works anyway. My cheese omelet arrives and is good but not fantastic. But truth be told: I didn't pay for fantastic. A large 4 egg cheese omelette Was only $12.95. So who's complaining? After thinking about it, My third time here I asked the chef if he could cook the eggs in butter for me instead of oil. And good sport that he is, he did. And it made all the difference much tastier. Thanks Eddie!! The cheesecake is amazing. The slice is beefy in size and creamy in taste. It doesn't have that cheesy flavor that a lot of cheesecake does. I've been eating cheesecake for a few decades and this is the best I've had. Even better than juniors in Brooklyn ... The menu is broad enough to support several return visits and I will be making at least some of them. read more

Today is 10/12/23 and I went to Atlantic diner with my work colleague, who actually recommended it. I never in my life witnessed someone so prejudice. We ordered 2 salads a tea and a water when it came to the end of us dining , Waldo picked our tip up and only picked a dollar up out of our our whole tip. He started screaming this is what you left me. Waldo didn't even bother to look at the credit card receipt to see that his tip could be on there. Waldo decided to embarrass two women. I am embarrassed to say I feel this was racially profiled because my colleague was Muslim . We did not deserve this. Horrible experience . I would give negative stars but I'm forced to put 1. Anti Muslim stay away!!!! read more

Came here about 2am on a Monday morning. A lot of diners have not been open 24 hours since the pandemic so I was happy to find this one. I ordered chicken wings, some eggs with home fries and toast. The chicken wings were breaded and not spicy which I loved and the eggs and home fries were excellent. My boyfriend had eggs, fries, and pancakes. The proportions were huge and we enjoyed everything. Angela was our server and she was very pleasant and accommodating. The other staff members also worked well together refilling our waters and clearing our empty plates. No pics because I was hangry but I will be sure to take some the next time around. We will definitely return and recommend. read more

I came here for the first time on a Saturday morning at 10am. There is a free valet parking lot and limited street parking. There were many people here but I did not have to wait for a table. Our waitress was very bubbly, helpful, and quick to serve. She took our order then directly stated that the food would be ready in 10/12 minutes. I was eager to see if the food would be ready so quickly and to see if her estimate would be correct. The food did come as quickly as she stated. The food was food but the home fries were very very bland. Prices are okay although slightly high for diner breakfast. Also they give a free juice with the breakfast specials and it's very tiny and looks more like a shot. Food was overall pretty good and overall quick and easy experience. Will definitely be returning again soon. read more

I haven't been in the Atlantic Diner in about 2 years. I was in Richmond Hill today and went in. First thing I noticed was that p, it was Saturday evening and maybe 5 Tables were occupied. That should have been my first clue. I ordered pancake.They weren't the fluffy pancakes I remember. They were thick and dry and came with 2 plastic packages of syrup. My coffee mug was only 3/4 full and I am still waiting for the refill I requested. When I asked the cashier for change of a $10 bill, she was clueless what I wanted. I can't believe John and his family still own the place. They would never have tolerated this. read more

Staff is completely inattentive. They're more interested in their conversations behind the register than serving customers, apparently whatever they're talking about and whats on their phone screen is more important than the clientele and doing their job. You have to get up and go get their attention. Once you order is placed, you then have to hope they actually prepare it properly the way you asked. In the very likely event that they get your order wrong, prepare for another extended wait. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else, unless you like being annoyed. I will not be doing business with these people again. read more

Didn't have a good time here. We came in at the end of summer and the air conditioning in the room they put us in wasn't even on yet. Just parking outside was really awful because the guy cleaning decided to tell us where we should park since we had a family van. Then he proceeded to stare us down till we went inside. When we were inside, the people that come all the time were served first and when we finally got served our drinks, the dish for the creamer had jam on it. From where? Who knows. The food was okay. Each breakfast set came with coffee and juice so we didn't have to choose between that. I felt like our waitress was much friendlier to the table in the back than to us. Sure, maybe they frequent this joint more than us, but it doesn't mean we deserve any less. Based on the other Yelp reviews for this Diner it looks like there's a lot to work on as far as providing better service to customers. read more
