Great food and service!! Everything was homemade and delicious! Cute diner feel and outside seating too.

Guys I don't eat burgers like that but when I walked past it was like something was calling to me. Was it the seating? Was it the fact there was misters? Or maybe the fact last time o walked by this area no one owned it at the time so I was curious.... BUT THATS BESIDES THE POINT. This place was delightful. Upon arrival we just sat at a table as instructed from their signs and then we were immediately greeted by a kind server who was serving FACE. Basically we got a fashion icon serving us and she was so kind. My friends and I ended up ordering a steadfast double with everything on it cuz why not. Then we got fries with garlic aioli sauce. As soon as I began debriefing my friends about my latest life updates THE FOOD HAD IMMEDIATELY CAME OUT!!!! ok speedy service My first instinct was to bite a fry but my burger stared at me with intent. It wanted me. I had to consume now. First bite was like I was being kissed by a butterfly. Delightful. I have no idea what that sauce was. I have no idea why the patties were so crispy as juicy but whatever they doing back there PLEASE BY ALL MEANS KEEP IT GOING. I finished the burger with speed and accuracy all lading into my mouth with a smile. God it was so good. I haven't had a burger this good in the East Valley since.... Well never. I typically go to Tempe but wow thank you for this. The fries were good as well but that garlic aioli was mmmmmmm. We were given a table "fly go away" fan so that was nice:) Will be coming back. Thank you for the food. Imma make this spot one of my "hey I know a place" read more

If you like eating outdoors this is the place for you. Our server was pleasant and timely even though they were busy. We had the Double Smash-Burger and the Double Smash Pastrami Burger along with fries which were all delicious. BTW the Old Fashions were a nice treat! We'll definitely be back. read more

Very cool diner interior and vibe, and it's awesome to have a walkable place in this area that is lacking neighborhood-vibe food places. Staff here is ultra friendly. One server mixed up the dishes we had ordered and handed me something that had gluten, and I have an allergy. Luckily, I spotted it before it was too late. She was sorry for the mixup but didn't do much about it, and sort of acted like it never happened. I had to be aware of things else I could have gotten in big digestive trouble. We all got salads and they were good. Decent wine selection here too. If only the staff was a little more sensitive to allergies, this place would be great. That said, they are dealing with crowds, loud kids, and low pay -- so they deserve a little grace! read more

I have ordered here many times for my family. Many things off the menu. One time chicken was forgotten on my salad and they were very apologetic. They corrected the error and added an order of fries as an apology. I have never had an issue since. In regard to the reviewer that complained about the salt level of everything.... Consider a salad next time. read more

Food is consistently amazing, service is great, vibes are great. Beers by the pitcher makes it even better

A small diner with mostly outdoor seating but some indoor seating as well. Service was pretty good and quick. Food wise, I tried the fried chicken sandwich, steadfast double burger, and the farmers daughter (all 3 sides). All the food was very very very salty. The chicken sandwich with the hot honey aioli had chicken that was too dry and not enough flavor (not incl. salt). The breading was ok but it started falling apart. The burger was also very salty especially with the bacon, American cheese, and salty patties. There needs to be some kind of balance with something on the refreshing side, but there just isn't any. The pickles are also salty and the steadfast sauce doesn't do a great job making it any less greasy and salty. The sides were varied in quality. The cheese curds were pretty awful. The cheese was all dried out, chewy, and required you to bite through them with some force. The fries were extremely salty and had a similar problem where it was so fried that it became chewy instead of crispy. The onion rings were the best of the bunch but still too salty. I tried the garlic aioli and the house ranch sauce but both did not do a great job in balancing any of the existing flavors, I probably preferred regular ranch over the house one. Overall, the food makes you feel like you're ingesting diabetes in food form. I would absolutely not recommend this place nor eat it again even if it was free. As a side note, the price is $15/sandwich not including drink or sides. Overall, too expensive, too salty, too greasy. read more

Our party had the Steadfast Double burger, the Crispy Chicken Sandwich, fries, onion rings, cheese curds and a Coors Banquet beer and a Hey Mama cocktail. We finished it off with blueberry pie and vanilla ice cream. There is ample outdoor seating and misters. Our server showed up very quickly to take our orders. Even though you're sitting outdoors, the service is excellent. Next to the restaurant is a water splash area for kids. Today is was around 100°, so the water area really helped. I have no complaints for this nice restaurant. Perfect for young families with children to have a great meal. read more

They have a very good wine/spirits menu, The Eastmark park is always quiet and peaceful where the outdoor seating is. read more

Steadfast Diner - Pastrami Double Smash - Salad Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

Came on a Thursday night around 6pm. There was a small line at the order window and a lot of the tables were full. Cute seating area with corn hole for the kids. The atmosphere is definitely their strong point. Total time between ordering and delivery was about 40 minutes. Food was a bit pricey and was somewhat average. The fries were plain. The steadfast sauce and home made pickles were very tasty. The chicken sandwich was dry however the burger was very good. I would return for the atmosphere but not the food. read more

This business replaced another diner in the same location. Outdoor seating so be prepared for the weather. Lots of seating. They were pretty busy Saturday when we were there but we got seated immediately and our food came out quickly. I got the pastrami double and my wife got the chicken sandwich. Both sandwiches were cooked properly and tasty. The fries were just ok though. Same with the cheese curds. Service was outstanding. The menu is straightforward, salads and sandwiches most. read more

I did not get photos of our lunch, but very good. Daughter and I out and about - we leave near by. Actually have not stopped at the diner before (have been to the coffee shop and they are good.) I had crispy chicken sandwich - excellent. Simple. Tender, nicely breaded. Great fries. Nothing fancy, but all quality ingredients with excellent sauce. So, giving a five. Good service. Waitress very friendly, funny. Acted like she actually likes her job - that's like not normal these days! I forgot what my daughter had - I think a salad. But she liked it. read more

My son and I stopped in for dinner after a play at the park. We ordered an Arnold Palmer and the Farmer's Daughter. This was around 5pm on a Tuesday. Our waitress was very attentive. The meal came out after a little bit of a wait but the food was so fresh I didn't mind a bit. The outdoor seating is perfect for this time of year. They offer cocktails, mocktails and sodas. Plenty of children and doggos were dining too. Overall a great family dining experience. read more

Great for early evening dinner out on park benches served on disposable plates with misters to help keep bugs away and cooler temps. The park setting has light buzz (not loud) and family friendly. Brown rice bowl had a ton of flavor with fresh arugula, carmelized onion, radish, hakurei turnip, and grilled mushrooms plus I added grilled chicken ~$20 well worth it. I can't believe I ate all of it. A walk around the park was perfect ending afterward. I'll be doing this again. Can't wait to try burger and shake next time. read more

Been a few times and love the vibe. Very family friendly, casual, tasty food. Love that they get produce from the farm Nextdoor.

Great smashburgers, good fries, onion rings & cheese curds, outside picnic table seating, & $3 16oz PBRs!? Love it!

The most amazing smash burger! Burger had caramelized crispy edges and soft/light brioche bun. We had cheese curds with garlic aioli. And music in the park was great. Staff was on top of it! read more

Imagine if you had a diner in your backyard...that's exactly the vibe that Steadfast Diner puts off. You're adjacent to the farm and community pool with picnic tables outside. It totally feels like you've stepped out your back door and ordered a burger and fries.... probably because, for so many people, that's exactly what it is. Lucky folks. I dined here with a large group of colleagues recently and enjoyed the smash burger. I've solidly determined that the thinner patty is the way to my heart-not the thick, juicy and often undercooked chunk of meat that I find elsewhere. This one was cooked just right and the flavor was OMG wonderful. I wish I'd gotten pictures, but I jumped in before my camera had any idea what was going on. read more

Service here is excellent. Friendly staff and great food. The vibes are chill too. All the seating is open. Eaten here three times now. During both quiet and busy. As expected, slightly slower turnaround during the busy time but the staff checked in with us frequently and updated us on our food. Stoked to have this near by. Brown rice bowl is a banger. Farro bowl is a banger. Smash burgers are all banging. Ruben is a banger too. read more

Cute diner style outdoor eating area that's great for the family! Somewhat higher pricing but everything is farm to table and the menu is diverse. Good portions (chicken on sandwich was a little small), sauces and drinks were great. We found a table on a Saturday evening and a waiter came right over. The only downside was after we had ordered everything the waiter came back and said it may be a 30-45 min wait, wish they would've told us that before we put our food order in. But we didn't have to wait that long luckily. Lots of people came by to check on our table and make sure we had everything we needed. Definitely will come back! read more

Review on a Tuesday during Lunch (11:30am) Ambiance & Seating: 4/5 Primarily outdoor seating, so open to elements. Cooler weather when we visited in January. They have space heaters and some seating options in the sun. About 8 counter seats inside. In summer, they have overhead shade and likely will have swamp coolers and misting systems. Available seating and service/wait times were good (less than 15 min from order to being served) Food: 4.5/5 Excellent smashed burger - honestly everything you'd want in a diner style smash burger. Crispy edges, melty cheese, quality toppings. Fries were fresh, salted, and crispy. Grilled chicken sandwich pretty was great! Only recommendation was possibly more seasoning on the chicken itself... however I think the 'less is more' flavor is intentional, similar to Joes Farm grill. The ingredients are fresh and they want that to shine through. So, I get it. I mean like...the lettuce is clearly organic, freshly harvested and grown on site. You can taste the difference. If you've ever grown your own food, you can just tell. If you want more intense flavors, more salt/umami, ask for an extra side of the aioli. It's amazing. Sauces: 5/5 phenomenal. Ranch and aioli dressings were so good it's criminal :') Price: 4/5 Ok. It's not cheap. And it feels like a neighborhood restaurant that's themed as 'diner food' should be cheap, so that's why it's shocking at first. But if you think about the quality of ingredients (local, organic, clean ingredients), paying the staff fair wages in turn for kind, caring, thoughtful service, and supporting its sister coffee shop and farm, I think it's completely fair. I went to a sandwich place the other day and a 8" sub was $18. A burger or chicken sando here is $15. I'll take supporting our neighborhood restaurant over processed foods any day of the week. Grateful for this to be in our neighborhood. Thankful for clean ingredients I feel good about eating, serving to my kid, and recommending to family and friends. This isn't a "we don't have groceries and it's 6pm and we need a quick, easy, cheap meal for a family of 5" situation (although if it works for you, awesome!) This is a "let's go out for a special meal this week" or "I'm working from home and want to splurge on a quality meal for myself for lunch today", and definitely a "it's Saturday night friends!! Let's get a sitter and go grab drinks, a burger, shake, and have a great time!". Enjoy!! read more

The service was amazing. We had a super nice server and the staff all seemed very kind and friendly. The pricing wasn't surprising- not cheap but about what you'd expect here. The burger was good, but nothing really special and the same of the chicken sandwich. The sauces were honestly kind of a letdown. The ranch was weird and very buttery rather than dressing texture and the aioli somewhat plain. The appetizers were bad. They were overly salted by a long shot (coming from someone who eats like 3x the daily recommended salt) and they all just tasted like fryer oil with zero nuance or depth in flavor. It's spotless in there with great vibes and a great area but I wouldn't go back anytime soon and they're not a must try. read more

Steadfast diner has some yummy farm to table American food options. I love the steadfast double with the local sourced buns. Food comes up quick and hot. Employees are nice and attentive. Most of the seating is outdoors so plan your visit accordingly. Winter days or spring/fall nights are the best time to visit. Parking can be tricky. Park near the east mark community center if possible or on the street near steadfast farm store. Be prepared to sit on picnic benches which may not be the most comfortable. But food and vibes are worth it. read more

I got a smash burger and the cheese curds. Both were super good. They have home made ranch that's a bit different but really really good. Get a shake as well. read more

PSA: this is not your local greasy twenty-four hour diner. It's infinitely better! They have one of the best fried chicken sandwiches in town. That hot honey aioli is wild. The steadfast salad felt homemade in the best way. The quality of their produce really stood out. Service is fast casual but the staff definitely makes you feel at home. Has been open for less than a week but already is a top shelf culinary experience in the valley read more

We just found our new, favorite local spot. Omg the food was amazing. My wife loved her grilled cheese and fries. She asked for aside of ranch, which was homemade and delicious! I had the Steadfast Burger, which was incredibly good and a side of onion rings which were just about the best I've ever had. Get them with the garlic aioli, you won't regret it. To top it off, the service was fantastic; very friendly, personable and attentive. Love this place so much. We'll be back often. read more

We came for lunch on a Saturday afternoon just looking for something quick. Oh my! The food is farm to table / local. I ordered a burger and it was truly one of the better burgers I've had in some time. It's also such a cute little park setting that you can't help but to relax and enjoy. read more

Steadfast Diner blew me away. The Steadfast Double Burger might be one of the best burgers I've had in a long time -- juicy, flavorful, and stacked perfectly. The Crispy Chicken Sandwich was just as impressive, with that ideal crunchy coating and tender chicken inside. On top of that, the diner itself has a classic, welcoming vibe and friendly service, but the food feels a step above your usual spot. Definitely worth going out of your way for. I'll definitely be back to work my way through the rest of the menu. read more
