    The Charlie with Eggs Over Medium, Ham, and Home Fry Potatoes covered with Sausage Gravy.
    Mark D.

    After living in the Sylvania area for 20 years, I decided to try the Sylvania Diner for the first time and my overall impression was "just ok". I went there on a Saturday morning for breakfast around 7:30 am. When I stepped in I was greeted by a weird and unpleasant smell. After taking a seat at a booth overlooking the parking lot, I noticed the table had an overall sticky feeling that is most likely a permanent feature. Though only 5 or 6 tables were occupied, the initial service was slow with only one waitress working. However she was quite pleasant and accommodating once she arrived. I ordered The Charlie with Ham, over medium and home fried potatoes. Portion size was good, typical for a Toledo area diner. Food quality was average and may have been better if I didn't have to endure that weird smell. Oh, and the glass of water had an off taste, at least to me. I was hoping to like it and go back for lunch sometime, but I'm not too sure that will happen anytime soon. Unfortunately I cannot recommend this place. The Star Diner, Grumpy's or the Mayberry Diner would be much better choices if looking for a place in the Sylvania area.

    Eggs Benedict and potatoes.

    This would have been three stars except for the excellent service. The Hollandaise was okay. The eggs were slightly over cooked, but everything tasted fine, but not exceptional. Overall, it was a pleasant dining experience. I'll give them another try for lunch.

    The food here is amazing and the service is fast, running short on time you can be in and out quickly.

    As a night shift worker this is my go to spot for breakfast and a drink in the morning. Who doesn't love a 2.00$ margarita and a full menu at 7am? The staff are very friendly, the pricing is great. They have a nice mix of traditional american fare as well as middle eastern classics. You wouldn't expect a place that serves omelettes and burgers to have great hummus and gyros, but they do! If you've never stopped in I highly recommend it. They also do fast pick up if you work nearby and need a quick lunch option. I would give it 5 stars, but the hours are limited and at times some of my fav menu items have been unavailable.

    Being Open was special

    Was brought here by a friend in the area and really enjoyed my breakfast for so many levels. Other than the signage out front this place doesn't really stand out. Huge breakfasts for decent prices compared to the chains. Good coffee, refilled often and omlettes made to order in the style I love. Instead of the big whipped egg fluffy omlettes they use the whole grill to make a thin pancake of egg then it's wrapped around your choice of fillings. Will def be back when I am in the area to try some fo the lebanese goodies on the menu that I didn't get a chance to try. Very dive-y local kinda joint that yes, could use a serious make over but then I think you'd lose some of the charm places like this still have over the chain restaurant blandness many people have come to accept. PS: I love the blue sky panels over the recessed flourecesnt lighting

    White toast, crispy bacon and eggs over medium
    Jimel J.

    "Happenstance" I started my day by going to get an oil change at Dave White Chevy. I didn't want to wait for an hour in the waiting room so I started walking up Sylvania Avenue towards the "Golden Arches" of McDonald's. Then, I caught the signage of the Sylvania Diner. I had previously seen Instagram photos of their corned beef hash and creamed beef. I had always assumed it was down Sylvania near Mancy's Steak House or White Tower. I finally walk in to a chorus of "Hellos"...Then, I was asked "for here or to go?" Everyone in the Diner stopped talking to hear my response. "Here please" Just to make simple, I order bacon, toast and eggs over medium. My food came out in less than 5 minutes. The toast was lightly toasted & buttered. Bacon was perfectly crispy and the eggs were exactly like I like them...crispy edges with the white part cooked! I ordered a glass of apple juice that was enough for two people for half the price I usually pay. The Aesthetics of the place could be tightened up a bit but I guess I shouldn't expect it to look like a place in Soho. Overall, I would definitely recommend the Sylvania Diner to anyone who needed a meal between errands or while waiting for an oil change. :)

It means a few other things too, but these top my personal list. Chicago Post Cafe does at least two of these items very well. Today, I had the Italian Beef Sandwich with hot peppers and marinade on the side. Although hard to eat (the damned things falls apart too easily), it was fantastic. I've had more than a few of these, in Chicago none the less, and this version is honestly one of the best. It's better than Portillo's, and almost as good as Johnie's. Choose your peppers...hot, mild, and/or sweet! Plan to use your fingers to get what falls off the roll, because you won't want to waste a single morsel. Drink the marinade/dip while you're at it. The menu is pretty extensive, and breakfast seems to be featured. I saw another customer's plate, and her bacon, eggs, and pancake looked incredible. The place is small and a little tight, but you can eat in-house. Only one table seats more than 2. Service was fast and friendly. Very friendly. Yeah, I am remiss. I really should be eating here more often. Strictly breakfast and lunch. 5 stars for now.

I was told they don't take reservations but that we could sign in to the waitlist. When we got in there was nobody under our group's name.. not sure if we didn't do it right but was a little confused by that. Either way, we were able to get a table right away, a nice booth in the back at that. It's kid friendly too which is always a plus. There is so much deliciousness on the menu it's great! There is something for everyone and all of it tastes great. I will say the chickichanga I had was a bit spicy but still really good. Also, you have to try the different drinks they have! I got the kale tonic and caramel crunch coffee, both AMAZING! Although if you're lactose intolerant I'd ask for dairy free milk and if you're not into sweet stuff this is probably not for you. I was a little disappointed in the waitress. She was super kind and personable but I felt like she didn't ask enough questions, like when I asked for the coffee she never asked what milk I wanted (I should've clarified but still). I also felt like she didn't show herself enough. It wasn't terribly busy so I felt she could've done better. Otherwise, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

They used some very fresh avocados, it seems they used the whole avocado cause we surely weren't lacking. The biscuits and gravy were extremely good. The biscuits had a slight crunch and were freshly made. The turkey gravy was flavorful and light The drinks are premade but also very well done. Slightly on the sweeter side but still well done The restaurant was packed with a 15-20 min wait but there's a community table that we sat at and we were seated immediately, fun hack for couples. Only one other person sat at the table with us so it was like we had to it ourselves, though we wouldn't mind chatting to random strangers. We love this place and will be back

This truly a wonderful experience for all ages and varying tastes. A tremendous and welcome change we've come to endure from other dining experiences. Here the customer is THE primary focus from the moment you walk in til you walk out the door - BRAVO!! The food, had the Mayberry Mega where you pick your 6 omelette ingredients. Normally a crap shoot in most diners but here it was a home run. The ham and sausage were nice size chunks, juicy, and full of flavor. Spinach, onions, and tomatoes were fresh and perfect sizes and good quantities for the dish. That leaves the cheese my one "ding" would have preferred shredded cheese vs sliced cheese because of flavor and texture - but it didn't take away from a wonderfully prepared omelette made and severed with genuine care. Potatoes were frozen BUT they were prepared exceptionally well for dinner dare they were soft and cooked with a nice crisp. It was a superb surprise and a very welcome one. The coffee was fresh and hot and the standard "acidic" coffees you'd find in most diners anywhere, but overall inviting enough to have a few cups for a discerning coffee "snob" like me. Place was PACKED so all tables and booth were full, but they have a nice counter service with plenty of seating and space to move and eat and be very comfortable for your meal. What's fascinating is the incredible teamwork and collective desire to ensure your time, experience, and meal are spent enjoying your company and food not staring at your watch wondering about time. The entire restaurant was seated, served, and cleared with clean tables within the time I had to get and consume my own breakfast. So if you see a packed house on your arrival and don't desire that counter seat fear not - in this home environment your wait will be short and your day will lose no valuable time - well worth some minimal patience - you'll be glad you did. Your greeted as soon as you walk in by one or more of the extremely hardworking waitresses with a smile - your also sent off with a "Thank you. have a Good Day" by one more waitresses as you leave - both excellent touch of service class enhancing customer experience. I've never seen a more well-run diner or any restaurant from the waitresses to the cooks to the dishwashers the teamwork, attention to details, customer satisfaction, and to the incredible cleanliness of the restaurant despite the constant flow of customers - I've never seen a restaurant so clean and kept so clean the out the day. So what are you waiting for come to Mayberry where a warm greeting, clean home, exceptional food are calling YOUR name today...I'm returning perhaps I'll see you there....Bon Appetite!!

The staff were very friendly and attentive, even beyond what we would have expected. All told, this was an excellent experience if you're looking for a fast paced diner breakfast.

My favorite (aside from the falafel) was the Kafta. It's the first time I had it and my taste buds were blown away. Of course we had to end the meal with dessert (not much room left but we made it work) and the tuxedo mousse cake was made with so much love you could taste it in every bite.

    Took a random detour to Ameeras between Michigan and Dayton. Here's our take!!…read more Service: awesome. Nick treats you like family. He even called me his cousin. Lol Food: Hummus - delicious taste, a bit thinner than other hummus we've had. But, when that homemade hot sauce is added I forgot my own name it was THAT good. Kibbie: well seasoned meat, the breading(?) was superb. It was not super crunchy. The breading element also individual bite was stellar! You guessed it, we dipped that baby in the hot sauce and the yogurt sauce. The appetizers were so good, we let Nick pick the entrees. I am pretty sure he gave us the chicken and beef sish kabobs. Chickens came with the garlic aoili type of dip (sauce?) on the side. You know I'm going to say it was amazing and delicious. Beef: this man cooked those tenderloin pieces better than MOST steakhouses. It was a perfect medium rare. You guessed it - it was delicious. Desserts (for take out lol) chocolate cake and grandmas rice pudding. Rice pudding: thick and creamy, not too sweet. Personally, think a few golden raisins would be fantastic in there. This doesn't seem to be in the menu. Maybe it's a special thing. Chocolate cake: this was the thing that slightly disappointed us. The taste was ok but it was dry. Now, he told us his cousin in Cleveland makes them for him. So it isn't like he can get a fresh one outta the kitchen everyday. So, I'd take one a bit on the drier side and have a milk chaser than commercial garbage. Do yourself and your taste buds a favor, stop in to see Nick. Tell him cousin Kerri from Dayton sent you. See ya next time cousin Nick!!
