Coming from Queens NY, over in Danbury after seeing a show at Daryl's House. We stopped into the Main Street Diner for breakfast before heading back. They have a parking lot which is great. The diner is small, homey and clean which reminds me of my childhood in Rockaway. My husband had a cheese omelette which was made to perfection and I had placed eggs which were made exactly to my liking ... not too soft or hard. The coffee was delicious and the waitress was attentive and pleasant. The prices are affordable as well. There is a large variety Oo. The menu to please many tastes. I recommend the Main Street Diner! Too bad it's not closer to us. Thanks again! read more

Bad service, they don't pay you attention except if they finish with everything else. The place looks a little dirty seems like they don't know what the health department is. My bread was cold. read more

This is the kind of neighborhood place I look for. Great food friendly locals fast service. It's all good! Although parking is scarce you can slip into a spot at the Dunkin Donuts next door. Lots of excellent home made items on the menu. I had the Chorizo omelet with home made Chorizo this was terrific. Don't pass on the house made hot salsa. A was enjoying the home fries too. This place has a Hispanic flair to all the traditional diner fare. I like this place and will defiantly return. read more

Main Street Diner - The chorizo omelet - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Danbury, Connecticut

Very friendly owners and staff that are quick to take orders. The shop could use some renovations though but It's a local business Im happy to support all these years. Can't go wrong with the potatoes :) read more

I needed a quick place to eat on Main Street in Danbury, and I stumbled into the Main Street diner, and I'm really glad I did. The food was Mexican/Guatemalan and was really good. I couldn't quite decide on what to get so the chef and waitress help me and I got an omelette. Now truthfully, I'm not exactly sure what was in the omelette. It could've been chili, Maybe there was some chorizo sausage, but it was served with beans And corn tortillas (they asked me if I wanted toast or tortillas, and the chef looked at me and said get the tortillas) and oh my God was it great. A little hole in the wall that serves great food, my kind of place read more

I am very Disappointed with the food and service from the diner. One of the people who worked for spilled orange juice all over me while trying to give my boyfriend his overcooked French toast. My huevos rancheros were very gross and the only thing that I liked there was their hot sauce. read more

I don't want to be perceived incorrectly, this diner was good. It just wasn't great. The owner and staff are great, and pleasant. They were prompt, and friendly. I even remember the owner being pregnant and having great conversation. The food was good, but nothing to write home about. My ranchero eggs were good, but would have liked the beans to be more flavorful, and the potatoes to be better. But they were still perfect for the time, after a late night, and with good people. Don't write it off, especially for diner food! read more

I used to consider Panchos Tacos the best Mexican food in Danbury. That was before I discovered this hidden gem near the intersection of Main Street and South Street. The menu offers a selection of typical American diner food, but I didn't bother with that during my visit. I worked for a short time with one of the head cooks at Main Street Diner, and he asked me to come visit him there so that I could taste some real, home style Mexican food. My husband and I started out with a plate of Chilaquiles in homemade Tomatillo salsa, then tried a plate of the best Huevos Rancheros I've ever eaten. Then we ordered a couple of Tacos: one Chorizo and one Carnitas. Both were covered in fresh chopped Cilantro and served on warm soft corn Tortillas. At Main Street Diner they make almost everything from scratch, including their three house Salsas. Their extra efforts definitely show through in the flavors and quality of the food they serve there. The restaurant is currently only open for breakfast and lunch, but I've heard that they are considering opening for dinner sometime soon. If you prefer real Mexican Food over your typical Velveeta entrenched Tex-Mex I suggest you check this place out. read more

Great place. Chef is amazing! Food is great at a very good price. Staff is very nice.

This place is a typical Diner, with variety on the menu and pretty much what you would expect from a diner menu. But the food was very tasty, and it was ready very quickly. I will definitely come back and I recommend this place. The staff was very nice as well. read more

Service sucks, we had to beg for attention from our waitress who was very rude and impolite, average food, place is outdated and is not very clean. El servicio apesta, teníamos que rogarle a nuestra mesera para que nos pusiera atencion, cosas basicas como mas cafe, servilletas y cubiertos. Ella fue bastante grosera y nada amable. La comida esta promedio, el lugar es anticuado y no muy limpio. Se ve que la dueña es una señora muy linda, desgraciadamente esta grande de edad y la perra que nos atendió hace lo que quiere. read more

The absolute BEST tacos in Danbury! The barbocoa and carnita tacos are amazing! You will not be disappointed!

Typical diner food. Not the cleanest place, but that's also typical of diners. The family that owns it is very nice. Used to go there every Sunday for breakfast until I moved too far to walk to it. read more

Top 2 breakfast spot in Danbury. The huevos rancheros is heavenly, I order it almost every time I'm there. I've never had a bad meal there. Haven't done lunch yet besides the tacos. The tacos are on point. Make it a point to come here for breakfast if you haven't yet. read more

My favorite diner. The quality is excellent. Occasionally,there is a bit of a tude. But,who doesn't now and then?

American or Mexican-- both very reliable, fresh and served up in a traditional booth and spin stool counter setting. Great salsa, clean and family friendly. read more

Wonderfully friendly place with decent breakfast with a celebratory Latin accent. This is the kind of diner that makes one feel very much at home very quickly - efficient service, good solid food and an overall pleasantness that leaves you smiling. read more

This diner is authentic! The Mexican food is delicious and you can see them making it right in front of you. The only issue I've ever had was deciding whether to get lunch or breakfast because both are delicious. The owners are super nice and the waitresses are as well. I've gone there multiple times, both busy and slow, and I've always been served very well. If you want an authentic, mama and papa kind of place, visit Main Street Diner. And if parking is an issue...park next door or at Urgent Care. read more

Average diner in changing neighborhood with poor parking. We were going there for breakfast every Sunday. Week after week they managed to make a mistake. I tolld the owner that mistakes seemed to be what they were best at, and he told me "You'll be back !!" We never have been read more

Whenever we visit from SC, we have breakfast at Main Street Diner, many times. Every time we receive a happy greeting. We order typical American style breakfasts and, consistently, have a very good breakfast, and a pleasant experience. read more

I've been eating here for over 10 years. If you love homestyle Mexican food this is the place for you. Try the tamales either chicken or pork with a side of jalepenos or red or green salsa. I know someone who drives over 40 miles just to have their munudo soup. Everything is homemade from the tacos to the refried beans, They even have mexican soft drinks in the bottle. read more
