    THREE EGGS, APPETIZER SAMPLER, VEGETABLE OMELETTE
    Boris W.

    The four of us had a good time at the Rooster Diner. We ordered the App Sampler for the table and the each of us got our own breakfast dish. I had the Three Eggs with Sausage. My scrambled eggs were really well seasoned. The sausage was not oily and the home fries were spot on. My friends did not have anything bad to say about their plates either. The only negative came from the Appetizer Sampler. We thought the wings were the only good item out of the three in the sampler. The service was good. Overall, Rooster is a good diner and the price was super reasonable.

    Bacon, Egg & Cheese on a Bagel w/ Home Fries w/ Onions & Peppers

    I will say our waitress was the best part of the experience. She was very communicative and pleasant. She kept checking on us the whole time. She is an asset to the establishment. She pretty much commanded the whole dining room. Food was adequate at best. I had a Bacon Egg & Cheese on a bagel. The pictures I Saw on Yelp, helped me decide what to order, I felt like I was going to get a hearty sandwich and I feel like they skimped, It was missing an egg and a slice of bacon. They asked if I wanted onions and peppers in my hash browns. They just had a pile in the back and poured them on top, mix them in there and add some seasoning to your potatoes. Give it some love! It takes 5 seconds and the pile they gave me just looked like no one cared. you eat with your eyes and I knew I wasn't going to enjoy it as much as I wanted to on a rainy dreary day.

    The Rooster Diner, Media, PA. Different Breakfast sandwich #8 in the last 2 weeks. It looks like an old Denny's but it ain't a Denny's no more. I got an artsy creative vibe. I got the scrapple egg and cheese on white toast with hash browns. There was a lot of scrapple. The hash browns were brown like they should be. I was expecting more from my toast. Everything else looks and sounds amazing so I was expecting more out of the toast. $9.99 seemed a touch pricey. I don't know how I didn't get a Peanut Butter Bomb.

    Kind staff. Good menu. Reasonable prices. Great American diner experience. A little landscaping would serve the business well. Clean overall.

The service is amazing and…read morethe love the workers have for this place is palpable, they always make sure we have everything we need. Feels like a cute hole-in-the-wall place inside. I love the Omelettes, they're definitely above average, they come with fried potatoes and perfectly toasted/buttered bread. I love putting the omelette on top of the bread, so good! The perfect amount of food and I clean my plate everytime. Although, not enough for leftovers. I've gotten the 14 Hour Pork Butt Omelette and the Kennett Square Omelette. Both were delicious! My boyfriend and family have had the Huevos Rancheros--which looked amazing and I was told it was delicious. Looked like a lot of food too, so if you want something more filling and hearty, I'd get that over the omelettes. They've also had the breakfast sandwiches, which looked like a steal for the price and very good as well. The coffee, hot chocolate and tea is great too, and fairly priced! I get a drink every time, and they make sure you have refills, sugar, honey, whatever you want with it. Overall I recommend this place as a pretty good option if you're in Media!

It was a bustling yet comfortable little restaurant, split into two separate rooms. My daughter and I sat on the side with the grill, which had extra windows since it's on "The Corner" and some nice green plants that brightened things up a little more. The Huevos Rancheros didn't disappoint - I ordered mine with the coffee rubbed short rib. It really was good and it was cooked perfectly. The crispy potatoes were so good and actually crispy, unlike most other places that just have a little crisp to them. I adore home fries, and they can be hard to cook just right, so I really enjoyed these. The service was great and the waitress was so friendly. Oh, and there was an earthquake while we were there - and my daughter was the only one who even felt it LOL Overall, it was a yummy and fun visit. I'm glad I finally got to try it out, and I will definitely go again sometime.

Shotgun review: - Nice bartender - Clear allergy markings on the menu, thank you - Very dark inside* - Lamb meatballs appetizer was tasty** - Drinks were shockingly expensive & for what, really?*** - Hudson Valley Duck entree was a sad portion size, chewy, & underwhelming - Dill aioli that came with fries was great - The Neon Sign Epidemic rages on in Media, Pennsylvania**** *I had to use the flashlight on my phone to read the menu. **I liked the kick. Great flavor & creative plating. Pricey, like everything else on the menu. ***It cost $15 for a Paper Plane in a rocks glass. 2.25oz of alcohol for $15, served incorrectly, kinda stung. The average cost of a cocktail from the menu was around $18, so I guess I made out like a bandit. ****Another classy, imaginative interior marred by a neon sign. The rest of Two Fourteen was beautiful & sultry. The neon sign had a cheapening effect. I felt almost mocked by the bright pink sign that spelt out "good vibes only." Again, I think the prices are making me a bit resentful. I can admit to that. I don't think I'd return to Two Fourteen again if I was in the area, but can see the appeal if I lived in Media.

Ordered the Antipasto and Spicy Crab Vodka. The crab pasta never disappoints!! The Antipasto was a spread of assorted cheese, meat, and vegetables- if you like spreads you should get this. For drinks we got the Mango Picante (subtle mango taste and it wasn't overly sweet) and We Want the Funk- my favorite (had a nice banana flavor to it and it was smooth). Our server was so attentive and helpful- 10/10 for the service. They had live music there as well and all in all I thoroughly enjoyed being here! I highly recommend this place!

We easily found the restaurant, and parking was relatively simple (Media has a few different lots that are a short walk away from the main streets and restaurants). The space is unique in that it has a main restaurant area and then a second dining area that is right next door (not attached). We were seated in the offshoot area, which was cozy and nice. It still had the same ambience as the main dining area (I think, from what I could see), but in a more intimate and quieter setting. I was a little concerned that service would be more lax over there, but our server was attentive enough and our food and drinks came out in reasonable timeframes. For drinks, my husband went for a glass of red wine and our other friend opted for a cocktail. My girlfriend and I were both pregnant, so we both opted for mocktails, appreciating how many options they had! We both went for the paloma, which tasted pretty close to the real thing. For eats, we split the arancini, which was unique with its inclusion of crab meat! It was a delightful bite with the seafood accompanied by the pesto and vodka sauce. We also split the Via Ottagio, enjoying the char from the grilled lettuce, which added a nice dimension to an otherwise simple salad. For my meal, I chose the gnocchi - featuring blueberry and brown butter, it was a unique take on my favorie pasta type! Each pillow was delicately crisp on the outside but so creamy inside from the inclusion of ricotta. A great dish! All of my dining partners equally enjoyed their meals, spanning from pizza to pasta to chicken. All portions were reasonable, and prices were fair as well. We spent a while chatting after our meals were complete, so we appreciated not being kicked out to clear off the table, even when we basically closed the place out. We are spoiled in the city with such excellent Italian food anywhere you turn, but I was pleasantly surprised with the quality and unique-ness of Ariano. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a solid Italian restaurant with some contemporary spins in Media!

Stepping inside, the open and vibrant ambiance envelops you w/ soft lighting casting a warm hue over sleek tables, and an ancient brick wall while the subtle scent of ginger and soy wafts from the kitchen. Last night I ordered their sushi and sashimi platter, and it was nothing short of fresh and delightful. Each piece was as tasty as the next. Talking vibrant slices of ruby-red tuna and pale pink salmon, artfully arranged with ginger and a nice dollop of fiery wasabi. Biting in, each melted in my mouth with that perfect balance of flavors.

As far as the croissants was concerned, some tasted like it was stale. The pork schnitzel (4/5) entrée was pretty good. I didn't care for the sausage and gravy topping though. Would've been better without it. Anyway, the mashed potatoes were creamy, buttery, and airy. The greens were garlicky and kind of salty. Grilled chicken Caesar (2.5/5) salad was okay. The dressing lacked in a lot of ways. More citrusy and less saltiness from anchovies. The mushroom bisque was a little grainy. Would I care for coming back? Maybe. Not anytime soon though.
