    Enjoyable roomy booth service with a large roomy granite table and big sunny window. Coffee good. Eggs fine. Friend's omelette was good. Toast a bit dry. home fries... eh? Lol little odd cubes with some tough little hard bites here and there of what not sure - little dried meet bone texture though - but hungry so glad to have them. Service helpful and swift enough. Would return and check out nee things.

    Nestled on a little hill, the Glen cove diner offers you a typical diner experience. The moment you walk in, you're greeted with warm, friendly service, and an old-school charm that immediately feels welcoming. The menu offers you all your basic diner staples from hearty burgers, fluffy pancakes, and a great all-day breakfast. The portions are generous, and the ingredients taste fresh. We ordered the New England fish and chips, Californian eggs benedict, corn beef with hash with eggs and a tuna melt. The food was fresh and portion sizes generous. I was disappointed in the fries as they were soggy and limp. However, the coffee, although not gourmet, was strong and constantly refilled by the staff. The Parking lot is spacious, just be warned if you have someone in a wheechair. The push up to the door is a good upper and lower body workout. The landing area and door opening is tight for a wheel chair to maneuver in, as well as a little 2 inch step at the door threshold. Overall, Glen cove diner delivers good food with a very friendly and attentive staff. PS. If you pay cash, you get about a 3.5% discount.

    I don't normally give 5 stars on everything but this place "takes the cake", I mean literally. I ordered a spinach feta cheese omelette that wasn't even on their menu and they made it for me. I added home fries and rye toast. Instead I got "kibbles and bits" on the potatoes and marble rye. I don't want to site the potatoes as significant but to be honest I was expecting chunks of potatoes as if it was cut fresh. My friend had a club sandwich and fries that looked spectacular. It was so good and big from the picture enclosed he couldn't finish it. Let me add the attention to the coffee service. The waiters didn't stop on the refills and it was constant, Thank You The Diner inside is quite airy, modern with up-to-date furniture and lighting. The natural light coming through all those large windows worked well also with the ambience of the place. The Diner has 2 bathrooms co-ed, both with modern amenities and CLEAN. Parking lot is large with two entry ways, one from Glen Street the other from Pearsal Avenue. That right there should tell you something? If you past one entry way on deciding whether or not to eat here? You'd still have a second chance at their other entry location... LOL *STOP BY FOR A BITE and tell them the Guru sent you.

    Quality of food , cleanliness ! Staff is great presentation excellent but it seems cook is not versed in basic American cooking . This is what happens with remote control ownership ! Want great Diner food ? Neptune Diner Jericho turnpike , you'll never go anyplace else in Long Island !!!!!!!!

    Lunch with my co worker. We both had salads. These salads are real meals. You will not go away hungry. Excellent. Only bummer is Pepsi.

    Cuban Breakfast

    Diners are good when they serve great food. This was one of them! My sister brought me here for the fist time and I really liked the food. I had the Cuban breakfast. I have to say OMG. This was really good!! This consist of rice and beans with eggs, avocado and platinos. My sister had the pancakes that were made perfect. The place looks clean but there is hardly any patrons due to past experiences for what I heard. Will definitely come back!

    Wonderful food, service and staff. Everytime we visit Glen Cove Diner, we leave happy. Everything is consistently great which is a hallmark of a great diner.

    French fries

    Today was the third time and I had it. I ordered a burger here. Of course rare and this is the third time they used old hard meat and brought it well done. On top of that, for the first time, they gave me these old very salty fries that were not even hot and somewhat cold. Did they bring leftover fries to me? I'm pretty sure it is if it's this old and cold. The service is fine as usual. The waitress and waiter are friendly and all, but using old meat there times in a row, and this old salty cold fries at dinner is just absurd.

    Cuban Breakfast

    Cuban breakfast is sooo delicious. I came here early Sunday morning as soon as they opened to avoids a crowd.

    French toast
    Deanna G.

    Excellent food! The Monte Cristo was delicious. The French toast and bacon were excellent and the Greek Benedict was divine. Amazing portions, delightful waitstaff and fast service. You can't go wrong here. I don't understand the lower than 5 star ratings!! If I ever find myself in Glen Cove again, we're stopping here for sure!

I ordered the Mussels appetizer, which was excellent, as was the calamari. We also ordered the three dip trio of Tzatziki, Hummus and Spicy Feta. All needed more flavor. I've made Spicy Feta and it's packed with lemon and garlic. The Tatziki was very light on garlic. Same with the Lemon Chicken, not very lemony. Hubby got the Lobster pasta. He said the pasta sauce was very good but some of the lobster was overcooked. The biggest disappointment was the Baklava Sundae. The baklava didn't have that signature crispiness Baklava should have. I did taste my husband's Basque Cheesecake, which was excellent. I also tasted the Olive Cake. I was having dessert envy. Lovely ambience, especially on a warm Summer's night. Service was OK, not amazing but our waiter tried his best. I would absolutely come back and I know what to order. :)

We were seated under the outdoor tent which gave us a great view of the marina and the sunset. There are also tables right long the railing to the marina, which looked nice as well. Additionally there is a lounge area which we explored after we ate. You could tell it was the place to be on a Friday night. Cozy couches, lovely bar, and a DJ. Inside there is plenty of additional seating which explains why this place operates year round. For drinks we both had the peach smash which was delicious and hit the spot. For food we both ordered the grilled branzino filet which was perfectly cooked. It came with delicious broccolini and lemon potatoes. The service was a bit hit or miss. We weren't sure what food we wanted right away so our waiter left us for about 30 minutes. Asking for the check was another 20 minutes. Staff is very nice but also being pulled in different directions. I had to knock off a star as the parking is valet only. It's free but a tip is always nice and we wish we had known about it in advance.

Jeanine herself is so warm and accommodating and is such a sincere and kind person. On one visit when I was in a rush picking up dinner for my mom, she went above and beyond to quickly prepare the most perfectly tender chicken cutlet with vegetables in just minutes. On my most recent visit, I had the most delicious chicken parm with ziti I have ever had in my life. The ziti was not only perfectly cooked, but the sauce - wow! It was something out of this world. The best I've ever had. I can't even properly describe how incredible it was - you have to try it for yourself! While I was waiting, someone at the bar overheard my order and told me how amazing it was and said that I am going to love it! She was absolutely right. I've also had their brick oven pizza many times - they make it fresh right in front of you in minutes and it's absolutely delicious. I can't believe how quickly they prepare such phenomenal food across the board. The prices are incredibly reasonable for such high-quality, home-cooked style food. You can absolutely really taste the care and quality in everything they make. Jeanine's is the best - I highly recommend!

Cons: I've called this place 4 times in past couple of months for a pick-up order. First time was great and picked up the food and fell in love so much so that it would be a regular on a night that I'd pick up rather than cook. Second time I called and was told to hold on and I literally timed it. After 10 minutes, no one picked up but could hear all the chatter from the bar patrons. Third time I called it was probably picked up by a bar patrons that sounded like he really enjoyed his liquids. Needless to say, he placed me down on bar and after what seemed like a few minutes, I was hung up on. The last and final time I attempted to call for pickup, no one ever picked up the phone. Final result: I believe if you plan on going up there and dealing with the wait, then the food is worth it. As for me being a regular customer, they've lost my business. If they had a working website or some other way of ordering, I may try them again. Otherwise, I won't go there unless I plan to sit and eat there or indulge at the bar: The potential for a great business is there, but maybe they only want to remain as a bar to their regulars.

Definitely need a reservation for Friday night. I've been going to the locations in the city before but I'm so glad they opened one up here. The drinks were delicious we tried the watermelon margarita, passionfruit sour, virgin Pina colada, and brisa de Lima. Made very well. For apps we got the grilled octopus and Nikkei ceviche. The grilled octopus came with two delightful sauces and some grilled mini potatoes. It was tender and flavorful. The Nikkei was like Peruvian tuna poke but I wish it was a little less salty. For mains we went all out. We got the matador combo and an arroz con mariscos and a full platter of jalea. It was enough food for 6 people with quite a bit left over. One of the standouts we never expected was the seafood rice.. the sauce it came in was rich and complex and creamy. Not like a paella, more like a risotto.. that was finished quickly everyone loved it. For the matador combo it is a huge amount of food. The chicken was standout juicy and came with a ton of sides like avocado salad, rice and beans, tostones, and salchipapas and fries. It was all really good and can fill up your party. The other fun food was the jalea, it's a fried mix seafood platter. I enjoyed the seafood used they had a mix of white fish, baby squid, calamari, clams, and yucca fries, all drizzled with this light but umami filled criolla salsa, which is a mix of red onions corn garlic and yumminess. Everyone was stuffed. Finally we had cake that I night and the cappuccinos we ordered were good as well. And the bill wasn't too crazy for 6 people with drinks. The only annoying part was that the roof was a bit drippy it rained and I felt occasionally drips of water on my head..

    Warning to Diners: Bad Food, Worse Service -- and a Sketchy OpenTable Cancellation!…read more We hardly ever eat at neighborhood restaurants since we're in the City most of the time, but we were staying in the neighborhood this weekend, so we decided to give a local spot a try. I rarely leave negative reviews, but tonight's experience deserves a warning to others. What was supposed to be a simple dinner turned into one of the most unsettling dining experiences we've had. My husband and I ordered the pork chop and the chicken pot pie. The pork chop started out fine until we reached a section that smelled foul--a strong, rotten odor with a reddish interior totally different from the cooked part we had already eaten. We both noticed it immediately. When we told the female waiter, someone from the kitchen who maybe the owner eventually came out, only to dismiss us and insist he didn't smell anything. The tone was snobbish and condescending, and there was zero concern that we had already eaten part of something potentially unsafe. At the very least, he should have asked how he could make it right--but he didn't. The pork chop was only removed from the bill after my husband said he would not pay for it. That should never be a negotiation. The chicken pot pie was completely ordinary, and the cornbread topping was dry to the point of being unpleasant. Between the questionable food and the even more questionable customer service, this place left a terrible impression. Neighbors be warned!!! Addendum -- Diners, Please Read / OpenTable, Please Take Note Our reservation was for 6:30. After getting home at 7:50, I went to leave this review on OpenTable--where we made our reservation--only to find that our reservation had been canceled at 7:48 PM, after we had already eaten there. Because of that, we have no record of dining and cannot leave a review on their platform! I had no idea a restaurant could do this. It feels extremely sketchy, especially since canceling a reservation like that conveniently prevents guests from posting an unfavorable review. No wonder the OpenTable rating looks so high. This isn't just disappointing -- it's something OpenTable should be aware of. If restaurants can erase reservations after the fact, it undermines the entire review system that diners rely on. Consider this a warning to future guests and a call for OpenTable to look into this practice.
