Strawberry shortcake
Alex T.

Looking for good diner food and we were pleased with our experience. Victoria,our server, was great. After explaining that it was our first time she took a few minutes to explain the menu and the specials. She was funny, and attentive and a true pleasure. Wife had the turkey club which was stacked with meat and a lot of bacon. She liked it. My daughter had the early bird special of broiled salmon which came with a side, salad bar and a cup of soup AND dessert. She loved it. I had her soup which was hearty and perfect on a raw November afternoon. The soup was chicken rice and I would get a bowl of it next time. I got a grilled cheese with bacon. Lots of bacon. This place is generous with their bacon. Alex likes that! Took a piece of strawberry shortcake home. Huge piece and very good. A little regret that I didn't get the chocolate cake too. There's always next time! Check the photos out. Prices are very reasonable. Food was a solid 3 but Victoria brought it to a 4

So today I decided to have breakfast at Michaels Diner! It's been a long time since I ate there, close to 3 years! Everything was cleaned, tables, silverware, my waiter was very nice and he checked on me a few times! The food was delish especially the western omelette!! Great service!!!!

Mozzarella Sticks

I placed a delivery order and ordered mozzarella sticks. Unfortunately there was no cheese in my mozzarella sticks. I tried to get a refund and the restaurant "denied the refund request due to the reason that the employee of the restaurant pack the order herself and she thinks the cheese got hard because this is a delivery order." I have ordered mozzarella sticks from there before (being delivered) and never had this issue. Highly disappointed!

Vanilla ice cream with whipped cream

Michaels reminds me of the Greek delis that were on so many corners in Manhattan over 20 years ago. The menu is quite extensive and it's open 24/7. I was here after flying cross country and leaving the airport after 10 pm. The food places at the airport were closed. I am allergic to eggs and cheese, so it always limits my menu choices. I wanted to have the veal, but it's dipped in egg before it's breaded. I had a burger and sweet potato fries. The burger was huge and flavorful. It was on a nice bun with iceberg lettuce and tomato slices. A quarter of a dill pickle was also included. Surprisingly I did not like the sweet potato fries. Unlike the sweet potato fries I get in California, these were a light yellow color, not sweet and mealy textured . Our friend told the waiter and he quickly brought me regular fries. They were very good--crispy twice cooked. The ice cream looked good and the portion was generous. Coming from California, I was amazed at the value. The burger was less than $6 with regular fries! A nice burger with fries back home would be over $10.

The friendly and inexpensive diner in Glenside

In the region of the USA where diners originated, Michael's is your typical Mid-Atlantic diner. It's also one I really like for a couple of reasons. The first is that Michael's is a very friendly place from the moment you walk in. This is true even if you are not a regular customer. Second, it serves as an inexpensive but hearty eatery for such a cross-section of people. Literally all walks of life hit-up Michael's at some point or another - from the college kids at the University across the street to the lonely old man living alone in a nearby apartment to a family out for an inexpensive meal. Fortunately the food adds to its pleasant atmosphere. I recently had a bowl of tasty lobster bisque followed by an ample and delicious gyro sandwich accompanied by fries and slaw. This all came at such a low price that I was amazed. And my server Allison was as friendly and multi-tasking as an excellent waitress should be. The large menu at Michael's is def on the downhome old-fashioned side but sometimes that's just what is needed!

Me and my family love Michael's. All the waiters are so kind and caring. I like the French toast with homefries, scrambled eggs with cheese, and sausage. If you like diner food and your food orders consist of simple breakfast food, I suggest going here!

Bad service; wouldn't let us order! Worst service I've ever received. The wait staff was rude and did not treat customers with respect.

Been there 3 times and food always excellent. Small restaurant, but I have never had to wait long…read moreto be seated. Staff always pleasant. Ready to go again.

To the Point - Fresh, flavorful southern style cooking that taste home cooked while upholding great…read moreservice. They say welcome home when you enter the building, and they were spot on. The space isn't huge but it's very cute ambience with a chandelier of plants cascading the ceiling with simple decor. We both ordered chicken and waffles, the chicken is perfectly fried. Crunchy but not too much or less batter that holds a juicy thigh. The seasoning felt simple but the flavors were anything but. The waffle was big and dense with the outer layer having a subtle crisp that reveals a soft interior. Again, very subtle seasonings, they are not overloading the food with masses of flavoring, these people know how to work around their ingredients and let them shine. The chicken and waffles get a phenomenal 9/10 We also purchased an order of Fish and Grits to share with the lobster sauce on the side as I have a slight shellfish allergy and the waitress insisted on putting it in the side even though I told her it was ok (I appreciate the consideration). I rarely order this type of meal but man do I not regret it at all. I'm not even sure what kind of fish I consumed but it was so perfectly fried with the gentlest breading that complemented the perfectly cooked fish. Again the seasonings are subtle, it's not really the boldest of flavors, it just tasted good. The grits were savory while not being overwhelming when combining the fish which ended up being very satisfying bite. The Fish And Grits gets an amazing 9.5/10 I will be coming back, I'd like to try more of what they offer. These people are masters of frying things to perfection while retaining the core flavors of the protein. The staff was friendly and you can feel the soul they breathe into the place. I highly recommend giving them a chance.
