    I occasionally stop by Uncle Bill's on the weekend when I'm headed to Flushing to go food shopping. There's plenty of parking available. It's busy on weekend mornings so we usually end up at a table instead of one of the booths. Today, from the weekend brunch menu, I ordered the Greek omelette with home fries, rye toast, and tea; and my SO ordered the Big Breakfast (2 eggs over medium, bacon, sausage, home fries, white toast, pancakes and coffee). The food came out after a little wait. The food was tasty and my home fries were well done as requested. My SO said his food was good and the meat was cooked well, but he mentioned that the home fries came out a little cold and the pancakes were a little dense. The servers came by several times to check on us and refill the coffee/hot water. Overall, Uncle Bill's is a solid breakfast/brunch spot (I've never visited here in the afternoon or evening, so I can't speak to their lunch or dinner offerings). The portions are pretty big, and with the bill coming out to $35.40, I feel we got our money's worth.

    Eggs over easy, home fries well done the way I like it, and some bacon. The other plate was in order of Belgian waffles with some bacon.

    this is a solid diner. The waitress was very friendly and attentive. The food is solid. The place is pretty clean. There's plenty of parking in a very ugly shopping center parking lot. That's the big downside to coming here. Outside of the place is kind of gross., but once you get inside, you're fine.LOL

    We were craving diner food and came here in the afternoon on a Sunday right at the tail end of lunch rush. We were seated after waiting a few mins and the service was very friendly. We ordered a milkshake, hot tea, chicken lemon soup, a chicken parm sandwich and gyro wrap. I thought everything was delicious with the exception of my soup, which was lukewarm and I prefer it piping hot. We had more than enough food and took home what we couldn't finish as leftovers. Overall we had a pleasant experience and would come back to try other items on the menu.

    My family LOVED this diner because not only were the portions big, but the staff was so attentive and caring. We were seated within minutes and decided to order what we wanted. All of the food came out hot and we loved how generous they were with the amount of food they gave. As a classic diner lover, my cravings were fulfilled. The ambiance was amazing too with lots of people when we visited over the weekend. We will definitely be back for more eats! Food: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 4/5

    We wanted to go somewhere that was open early, and we came across this spot. We got there at 10 a.m., and the restaurant was almost full, with only two to three tables left. We immediately noticed that it was very busy and couldn't help but feel a little cramped in terms of the seating and the servers walking around. We were given the breakfast menu and ordered two large orange juices, steak & eggs, and a big breakfast platter. Both entrées came with buttered toast with a side of grape jelly. The steak & eggs came with home fries, and we requested the steak to be cooked to medium and the eggs to be scrambled. The big breakfast platter came with eggs, home fries, two sausages, two pieces of bacon, and two pancakes. We also got these eggs as scrambled. The food tasted like typical diner food, and we think that their sausage and home fries stood out the most. Overall, we thought that this diner was a little more pricey than usual; however, we would come back for a quick diner meal.

    What we actually got!

    Their Big Breakfast is really good. We get it most weekends, BUT, today I thought I would just get a sandwich and onion rings listed as "sliced onion coated in a savory batter". WRONG!!!! It was deep fried ring shaped onion flavored mush! At a cost of $7.25!!! VERY. disappointed!

    It's a diner on a strip mall in Queens. You. Do. The. Math. It's also a tiny little place. I haven't got food poisoning yet...

But the really beauty is that it looks like an old school diner, it's just far enough the beaten path, that it's regulars coming here. BRING CASH! My sister has wheels so I hit her up and we hit the road. We ended up grabbing lunch but I want to return for brunch. I loved the old school aesthetic from the outside and all the details on the inside. THE BETTY BOOPSSSSS are the absolute best! I could not get enough. Didn't take too long for a table, maybe 15 minutes. It's popular for those who know. We got seated in the back. Out waiter was nice but new so there was a couple miscommunications but it was all good. He was in training. Judging by the people around us, they knew what they wanted. They came over and gave us pickles for the table. My sister was not a fan, so I did not partake. The father/son duo next to us got entrees but shared pancakes and the son got a milkshake. I think next time, I need to take their lead. I got a fish filet sandwich and my sister for a tuna salad sandwich with fries. I had potato salad but her fries were better. My sandwich was yummy on a brioche role and avocado slices. I loved it. I really can't wait to return. I told everyone I know about this place! May it last for many more decades ahead! Until next time!

I dine here frequently, so I am familiar with the typical portion sizes. The meal I received was noticeably smaller than what is normally served. To the server's credit, she acknowledged the issue and offered to have it corrected without hesitation. The more concerning issue involved my friend, who politely requested plastic utensils. She was told they were only available for takeout orders. Due to a medical condition, she does not use reusable utensils in restaurants. We have never encountered this issue at any other restaurant. As a result, we were unable to comfortably dine in. When I spoke with the manager, I explained that refusing a reasonable accommodation was inappropriate. His response was, "You never told me that," referring to my friend's medical condition. To be clear, customers should not be expected to disclose or justify their private medical information in order to receive a simple accommodation. We ultimately packed up our food and left because no effort was made to resolve the situation. Additionally, I had placed a separate takeout order before all of this occurred, but it was never entered into the system. When the check arrived, I was confused as to why the order was missing. To make matters worse, I was informed that I could not order an item from the children's menu as a takeout meal for my daughter. This policy was surprising, as I have never experienced such a restriction at any other restaurant. Overall, this was a very disappointing visit. While I appreciate that the server was willing to correct my meal, the lack of reasonable accommodation, poor communication, and multiple service issues left us with a negative experience. I hope management takes these concerns seriously and reevaluates both their policies and their approach to customer service.

    Five stars and totally worth the wait! I have traveled this world from Asia, Europe, North America,…read moreand South America, and let me tell y'all, I have never ever had pancakes like this before. It's clearly evident why the pancakes at the Gold Diner are famous, viral, and most talked about. My husband and I were obsessed with the lemon zest on the butter. I have never tasted a syrup like theirs before. It was fluffy and was giving a bit of mochi consistency (which I'm obsessed with mochi lol). Although the pancakes are the star of the show, the fried chicken is out of this world amazing too bursting with the greatest flavors. Enough about the food, service is straight up top notch! Everyone who works there is passionate about being a member of the Golden Diner. They work as fast and efficiently as possible to get everyone in their doors. Thank you so much for welcoming us with arms wide open and for the best service. You guys are awesome!
