California omlette
Tsz-Cheong C.

This little small diner in Hicksville provided a cozy atmosphere with a friendly staff. Don't let the size of this place fool you. It may be small in terms of interior space, but makes up for it in sheer deliciousness. The menu features classic diner comfort food, and the portions were generous. The decor is simple and retrospective of the early 80's, but the charm of the place lies in its authenticity and taste. I had the Lumberjack breakfast with Challah French toast, sausage and eggs. My wife ordered the California omlette with home fries and toast. The items were cooked perfectly, the omlette and French toast was moist and flavorful. The coffee was pretty darn good as well. The service was prompt, and our overall experience was a delightful one. We look forward to coming back again soon. NOTE: Small parking lot. There is a dead-end street behind the diner with some spaces. They also have 3 bathrooms; one is dedicated for handicapped people with wheelchairs.

Chicken Souvlaki sandwich

Old time diner. Comfortable seating, friendly, timely service and delicious food. Clean space, clean, small bathrooms. Plenty of parking and wheelchair accessible. But Fox News and political talk all day long. I don't care who you believe; just don't have the box preaching to me while I pay to eat. I hear enough of it on the outside.

Been here a few times for omelettes before I knew about the Ikea breakfast specials. Omelettes were light and fluffy. Hash was overpowered by onion. Always quick and friendly service. Not as art deco glam as other diners but still cozy. I haven't been there when their small parking lot was filled though.

French Toast Deluxe w/ Sausage & Eggs over EZ
Chun M.

Though a little out of the way, but still at the corner of main thoroughfares Old Country Rd and South Oyster Bay Rd, the Hicksville Diner is a beacon among all the other Long Island Diners and serving up really good diner eats. If you want a BIG American breakfast, you can't do much better. The layout is typical with shiny chrome exterior with a wraparound parking lot. You walk in to find counter seating and booth tables. We slide into our booth and go through the substantial menu, but we know we're here for the breakfast. I wanted the Deuces Wild, which is 2 of everything: 2x eggs + 2x bacon + 2x sausage + 2x ham + 2x pancakes + home fries = 1 Happy me. I could have used 2x toast to sop up the runny yolks of my sunnyside up eggs, but that will be for next time. My wife had the French Toast Deluxe with 4x BiG slices of egg dipped Challah bread toasted on the flat top grill, along with 2x sausage + 2x eggs over EZ. And amazingly, it all disappeared. Mmmm...BurP Now that I'm writing this review, I'm getting a hankering for a bacon cheeseburger...

Close up of the: Cream Filled French Toast with Nutella and Banana
Ronit M.

About half of the size of the Broadway Diner but 10x better! The ambiance and food were wonderful. Everything was brighter, cleaner, and fresher. Went on a Saturday afternoon for brunch with my bestie. It was getting busy around that time too. The booths were comfy. Plenty of bar seats if that's your fancy! The restroom was nice and clean. She ordered the Roast Beef au Jus Sandwich. I had the Eggs Benedict with Feta and Spinach. And we shared a third plate of the Cream Filled French Toast with Nutella and Banana. The feta and spinach were too salty. Would have been better plain/without. My hash browns were served cold....as if they had been ready made a while ago and served without warming up, at the very least. I didn't mind it that day, but everyone loves fresh out of the skillet/grill/pan/etc. hash browns! I removed a star for that and slow water refills. Next time I'll just get the French Toast. That really hit the spot. My bestie loved her dish. Said I should get it next time. We'll see. Happy eats!

Good cup of coffee
Joe P.

This is the highest rated diner near me so I had to try it! I was torn between 3 and 4 stars. The good - coffee was strong but not too bitter; the pancakes were fluffy; eggs were cooked exactly how I asked; Canadian bacon/ham was a good size. The bad - sausages were those skinny little ones with very little flavor, the bacon was not crispy and also skinny and little; and even though the home fries had peppers and I think onions (could be wrong) they were not very flavorful. My friend had egg white omelette and enjoyed them although I had a bite, and I thought they were lacking some seasoning. The place is not big but we were seated right away but it was a Wednesday. May be an issue on weekend. Service was very good with coffee refills aplenty, so I rounded up to 4 stars. Just do t come here expecting to be blown away...

The Rancheros Omelette
Jessica A.

I just visited this diner last night with my boyfriend because we were craving breakfast for dinner. We both ordered omelettes which came with home fries and your choice of toast. He got the Rancheros Omelette which came with peppers, onions, jalapeños and sausage. I ordered the Cobb Omelette which came with diced avocado, bacon pieces, and cheddar cheese. The omelettes were very good and flavorful but my only complaint was that the omelette itself was a little greasy. Otherwise everything else was very good!

We love this diner! Small, cute, underrated, and definitely one of the better ones on the island. Great huge omelets and sausage links, and the friendliest service.

Not too crowd, have plenty of food for your order. On the higher side of costs for a diner, but IMHO, worth the extra cost!

Ok food off the wall The wings gave me back in the day feel…read moreHouse made buffalo sauce with the Bleu cheese perfect mix The spinach artichoke dip I definitely definitely am worth. I'm not a big fan of pita chips so I substituted for chips and it definitely accommodated it really well. The drinks were well balanced as far as the place looks really amazing. Very quiet. I just me and my cousin in here for his birthday staff's pretty cool. I'm gonna be service recommended the wings. I'm actually taking some wings to go. Everybody get here to the foundry as soon as you can when you can peace and love.

Went to the Foundry Friday night…read more Off path location and not great parking. We had no reservations so we ended up sitting in the outside area. Cute little spot. Heard the guy next to us order a French dip and the waiter said great, we have only 2 left. So when he came to us I ordered and he said great timing it's the last one. Took 45 minutes to get our strawberry salad which was delicious. Another 3o minutes go by (and the guy next to me who ordered the other French dip had already finished and left) So the strawberry waiter, after more than 1.15hr walk over and says "hey, we ran out of the French so I ordered you the steak sandwich. Huh? 1 hour and fifteen min later you ran out and the other guy already ate and left? I said great, but I'm not paying for it. 10 min later the owner came out. He could not have been a friendlier, responsible and all around nice person. It wasn't that he not only covered my meal but the table but it was the way he handled it. Owning a restaurant is not easy and problems happen. Food - 8/10 Prices 9/10 Place 8/10 I would not only recommend this place but they have absolutely earned my business. I obviously can't give a 5 because of the incident but I will change this to a 5 when I go back and get the service I have a feeling I'll receive. This owner deserves the business because he knows how to run a business. Money follows the people not the other way around.

We attended a Trivia Brunch for Mother's Day. Reservations were taken online and confirmed by…read moreemail, which was very responsive for any questions or updates. Arriving, the space is bright and airy. At the table there was a lovely potted plant with our reservation name which we were able to take home with us. Such a nice touch. The trivia was really fun and something different to do. We started off with the maple bacon donut holes for the table. They came out piping hot and had the perfect donut texture. They were so good. They have a lot of cocktails and cocktails to choose from. I opted for the Spritz which was a light Aperol Spritz and it was perfect for brunch. The Paloma was also quite good. I had the Tap Stack which was pancakes layered with bacon and topped with a corn flake crusted chicken cutlet. The portion was large and hearty. The chicken was so crunchy and yummy. The bacon was perfectly cooked. The pancakes were a bit on the tough and dry side. The breakfast burrito, BEC and brunch burger were all good and everyone enjoyed their meals. Mother's Day is a day I always avoided eating out on, but Taproom changed my mind about going out on Mother's Day could actually be enjoyable!

I rarely leave negative reviews, but this was one of the worst restaurant experiences I've ever…read morehad. The restaurant only had about five other tables occupied, yet the service was unbelievably slow. Our appetizer was completely forgotten, and the portions were much smaller than expected. We had to ask for napkins and silverware three separate times before anyone finally brought them over. To make matters worse, our table hadn't even been wiped down before we were seated. The staff seemed to move with absolutely no sense of urgency, and we spent much of the meal feeling ignored. With so few tables in the restaurant, there really wasn't an excuse for the lack of attention and poor service. Unfortunately, this experience left a very bad impression, and I wouldn't return or recommend it based on the service we received.
