This is family what can I say the food is Fantastic . Great service, Great Ambiance and the staff is Phenomenal But most of all Clean Dining

It's a mainstay. Been around since I was a kid. It used to be across the street in a stainless steel iconic diner style building from a bygone era and they took over the former Roy Rogers after an extensive renovation. Ita now updated and a new generation has taken over. The employees have been around for many years and as new ones come- they are trained to provide the same great service and food. I can't say I've ever had a complaint. read more

I came the this diner for the first time on Friday Jan 24. I have lived in the area over 40 years. I have driven past multiple times. And I will say I have been missing out. The breakfast was good and cooked perfectly for me. Corned beef hash with cheddar grits and over easy eggs. The coffee was good and strong. The service was the epitome of guaranteeing a great customer experience. My server was Cruz. He was attentive, funny and just genuinely kind. He helped me with my mother who has limited mobility. The ambiance of this diner is like one big dining room at home. I felt like one big family. Definitely will be going back and sit in Cruz's section read more

Nice neighborhood diner. The fam went for breakfast . Food came out nice and hot and exactly how we ordered it. Friendly and helpful service. Only issue was the home fries could use a little more seasoning, they were very bland. We had the fried fish and eggs, fish was crispy, hot and delish. Banana pancakes good as well. Would definitely return read more

We walked in on early Saturday morning and this place was just OK. Nothing crazy to really say much about. At first we walked in and we were cold, he wasn't on and I think after someone finally complained about it then we started feeling it. The food was delivered on time at all but it was just plain and basic. I wouldn't return here, there's nothing that's gonna suck your taste buds on fire. It's just a place that I think you should go to grab a quick breakfast and then continue on with your day. read more

Just had lunch with my mom at the diner. I was a bit disappointed this time. I've been here several times and the food had always been good. Today my mom had the Oxtails with Rice which I should have order because it was good. I especially liked the sauce that they were cooked in. We chose this diner today because I had a taste for Meatloaf something that I hadn't had in about two years. I was disappointed because it was so bland, definitely needed some seasoning. The mashed potatoes and broccoli were good. So I'll take my meal home and add a little flavor. This is a nice neighborhood diner with a lot of regulars. The staff is always friendly and accommodating. I had to change my 3 star to a 4 star because every other meal here has been pleasant. read more

We had often gone to this diner in the past and were always happy with both the service and the food. However, recently, there has been a marked change in both. The last time we were there, about a month ago, we were somewhat disappointed with the service and the food. However, we thought it was just a glitch. This time, it was awful! We got there at 11Ú05 a.m. and were seated pretty quickly. We then sat for a half hour waiting for a server to take our order. At 12:00, I went to the man who appeared to be a manager to ask if there was a problem. He became very defensive and told me we had just gotten there. When the eggs finally came, they were cold, the blueberries were still half frozen. The BLT was specifically requested without mayo but came with mayo and was returned uneaten. The bill came with a charge for the BLT and when the adjustment was requested, it was given reluctantly complaining there was nothing wrong with it. To add to the whole picture, the adjustment was fro $3 less than the price. They lost five customers!!!! read more

Love this diner. It's right near my home so it's always a quick and convenient stop. Food is always good. Whether for breakfast , lunch or dinner. I've been for any time. Also never long waits or too crowded. I've ordered ahead and food is always ready in about 10/15 mins ready for pick up. Prices are great. Good size portions. And the staff is always friendly and inviting. One of my favorite diners. Glad it's so close to where i live. Go for it read more

One of my favorite dinners in the area. They make my favorite home fries. My mom loves their meatloaf.

The food isn't as good as it used to be. The cook changed the recipe on the Eggplant Rollitini. He put sausage instead of ricotta cheese inside the eggplant. It was disgusting. My friend and I recently went for Thanksgiving lunch and the cook used mostly rice in the stuffing instead of the usual stuffing bread mix. I actually got sick from the turkey and stuffing. The cranberry sauce amount added up to a teaspoon. The soup wasn't so good either. It was either cream of turkey or pasta soup. A salad was another choice. A candied yam was included.The dessert was pumpkin pie. Coffee or tea was the beverage. This meal was not worth $29.99. This meal was the last straw for us. We're never going back here. read more

We visited the Columbus Diner today for the second time and I realize my initial 5-Star review came mostly from Martha, our favorite server. We went in for breakfast today and were instantly greeted by the host. We asked to be seated in Martha's section but she had no tables available. Our server came to our table right away and took our order. We waited about 10 min for our meals to arrive. Throughout the meal our server seemed nowhere to be found. He didn't check in on us and our bus boy had to refill our waters. What I was most disappointed in was that the sausages, which I adored last visit, were undercooked and full of bones. Every other bite I hit hard into a hard bone - luckily I didn't break a tooth. Maybe just a bad batch? Both links were terrible. We waited about 10 minutes after we finished to get our check - again the waiter just wasn't around. It will take a lot to get me to order the sausages again. My favorite breakfast food. And if we go again we definitely will wait to sit in Martha's section. read more

I came here for the first time with the family to have a nice lunch and was delighted with good food. The food took quite a while to arrive but we were in good conversation to slow the time. I ordered the grilled chicken wrap with avocado and and strawberry milkshake to wash it down. Sorry, I don't have any pics because dad in law gets upset when phones are out while we eat lol. The wrap tasted very good but it was missing most of the avocados. I found a couple pieces towards the end of the halves. My milkshake was just a vanilla shake with strawberry syrup or powder mix. Idk what I should I have been expecting lol. In closing, I would go back again for a quick bite to eat. read more

We had a good time with family, long wait but food was good Good service. No complain so far! we'll be back soon read more

Columbus Diner - It was okay need more seasoning - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Mount Vernon, New York

This used to be my favorite diner to frequent until today's experience. My Husband and I went to the diner this afternoon for food and sangria. The busboy spilled an entire tray of ice cold water in my husbands lap, his response was "omg I'm so sorry i can't believe this happened AGAIN" . We ordered waffles and they came out completely cold, and we ordered sangrias and were brought out mimosas, then had to wait 20 more minutes for our correct drink . When all of this was brought to Management we were met with racism , disrespect, and hostility by the owners. We were asked "what would you like me to do? Bend over?" I've never felt so disrespected by the owners of an establishment in my life. I can't believe my most favorite place to grab a bite to eat at is ran by such racist unprofessional people.. He told my husband he would knock him out , and continued to disrespect him as he stood there with water dripping off his pants . His suggestion was "go use the dryer in the bathroom, no big deal". If i could give this place zero stars i would. I won't be returning to this establishment, and i certainly won't be giving my money to a bunch of racist owners who don't care about us! read more

The food was really good. I'm giving three stars because after we ate our waiter took away our plates. He came back about 20 minutes later with our check. When I asked him why didn't he offer us dessert or see if we needed anything else? He said that I ate everything on my plate so he figured I didn't want dessert. My date actually wanted dessert. We declined when he asked after the fact. read more

Came here for the first time for breakfast. I usually don't write a review unless I've been to the place a few times, but I must say, the food and service was excellent. Any diner I frequent, I almost always order an omelet. With that said, I've had a a lot of omelets in my day. The one I received at Columbus Diner was the best I've ever had. The egg well cooked; meat was well seasoned. The home fries were to die for with bits of onion in the mix to give it extra flavor. Absolutely perfect. Our waitress, whom I forgot her name; my apologies, was so sweet and friendly. She really made us feel welcome and taken care of. There was another waiter who came around and always made sure we had coffee and water. The service is one point. This is how you run an establishment. Will definitely be returning. read more

I give this Diner a qualified 4 rating. Due to the pandemic we don't eat in anywhere so I cannot attest to the service or time from order to table. What I can attest to is the pickup service. I make an order o line or over the phone. It is a 10-15 minute drive to the diner from my house. When I get there the food is always ready. I have seen both staff and customers wearing masks while not eating. We mainly order typical breakfast items and the food is always delicious it is what I would expect for a diner. We have been very satisfied with what we get and will likely visit in person when we feel comfortable eating in public again. read more

Okay. Lets get rightinto this review.... The food is TERRIBLE....TERRIBLE....HOLD UP....TERRIBLEEEEE.... My brother got a burger topped with a fried egg and chili ....disgusting. inedible due to the chili being straight from the can... i got a chicken souvlaki, that chicken was dry and hard, i could have used the chicken tenderloin as a self defense tool. On top of it all, my wife ordered the Eggplant parm with spaghetti.... HOLY SHEET...that things had to be OLD and the sauce was straight out of the can as well, no seasoning, no oregano, no nothing...wtf? How the helk are they opened and operating!???? Only good thing here was our Server Molly! She was very nice and sweet, and professional. To the owners, you guys better get your stuff together, and give your kitchen staff a lesson or two on preparing food...cause they suck! read more
