    This place is open 24 hours and I am glad for it. Since covid not many places operate this way. I get up very early so it was nice not to have to make breakfast and could head over to best to have some delicious pancakes, sausage, and hash browns. The staff were super nice and the place was clean. It has classic diner food and yummy breakfast.

    Not a fussy place by any means but after a late night you can't go wrong here. Everything is clean and waitress was friendly and service was quick. The food was satisfactory and it came out still warm and coffee was good, I take high test and my friend liked Decaf, both came out in a hurry and warmed us up on this cold night. My egg wrap was good and big enough to satisfy a cold hungry soul like me. If you are in GSO give Best Diner a try when you are looking for food for late nighters!

    When you walk in you can feel the atmosphere welcoming as it is family owned and the ambiance is your typical diner feel. The service was excellent and nice. I ordered one of the breakfast specials which was the two eggs, bacon, toast and grits. The bacon was cooked in the stove and crunchy, eggs were cooked to perfection. And the grits were hot. It was my first time coming here from being out of state and I'll recommend it to anyone and I'd definitely come back. The food was great.

    I love Best Diner! No matter what I order when we visit it is always good. My favorite items are the burger club with seasoned fries and their waffles with crispy bacon . Customer service is always on point and the staff is very friendly. You never have to ask for refills because they come by your table frequently. If you looking for a new spot check them out. Our waitress also mentioned that they are opened 24 hours on the weekends, perfect for a late night snack. You can thank me later.

    While on our way to the beach we were looking for some dinner. As we checked Yelp for places near us, most had poor ratings. Then we found this diner that had better ratings than other places nearby. It's like your typical diner inside. Only a staff of four working this evening but they hustled. The two ladies serving were both friendly. They had a bunch of dinner specials. The menu is big, like a typical diner. Our food didn't take long after we ordered. The food was decent for diner food, we all got sandwiches. Here's the best part, 6 of us for dinner was only $60!! What a bargain. I would suggest this place to anyone on the area. Don't expect ambiance, think diner and you won't be disappointed.

    French Toast with eggs. Added side of Bacon and side of hash browns well done.

    Good simple food at a great price! I wasn't looking for anything more than a basic breakfast, and after passing this restaurant and seeing the commercials for so many years, decided to finally try it. So glad I did! Wonderful food, simple and delicious. Service was great. The waitress and chefs hustle to get your food out quickly. Plus they are open 24hrs. Great place to get a decent bite of food at any time.

    the pancakes are good. the bacon taste like air. and it's vary VARY loud like it literally sounds like a mcdonald's play place in here. and the biscuit just looks sad and on top of all that my waitress border line was yelling in my ear and along side that there was a hair on my plate but the food came fast and it's open 24/7. 1 star

My other niece had the crab cake sandwich, she said it was good but the fruit was plated on the same plate so it was warm which was not appealing to her so she didn't eat it. I had the French toast platter with the fried chicken. The French toast was pretty good but the bread used was pretty flat but it was tasty and the chicken was overcooked, there was some black spots from being fried too long. The hit at our table was the cheesy grits, very cheesy and flavorful. We'd definitely go back to try other things on the very extensive menu!!

Diner style is the ambiance! Nailed it! I always order from here on DoorDash and was glad to be able to finally visit it in person, sit down, and eat. My family being with me was a HUGE bonus! Thank you for accommodating all of us. The one star off is for all of us having to pay $15 each to park in the lot that says Jake's Diner. I am sure many people have thought that this is where you park to visit and have gotten tickets or towed. Something needs to be changed about that. You have to prepay for parking. They need a different system or have validated parking.

I watched you cater to 3 other tables and pretty much ignore us. To be fair, I've eaten at Jake's on Wendover a few times. I knew the type of food. It's always been excellent. We arrive. The white lady with the high pony tail says "sit anywhere that's clean. Cool. Didn't get her name. I will call her P. All the small booths on the perimeter were full. We take the large booth in the back corner. The tables in the center were six tops. That booth wasn't clean clean. 50-11 crumbs in the chair. I wipe them off. We wait. No menus brought. One of the expediters walks by. Didn't even stop . A four top arrives. P is at their table in 2.5 seconds with menus and cutlery. Well dayum. Why don't we have anything? We see our waitress waiting on the table next to us. She takes the orders of the two older gentlemen making small talk even. No worries. What she did next should have told me how this whole experience was going to go. She brought the menus from their table to our table. Ummmmm, I don't know what cruds they could have had. Then asked what we wanted to drink. Ma'am! We just got menus. She returns with our water. Asks if we are ready to order. Ma'am' we just got these menus. We place our orders. I ask her name. Like you rolled up on us and didn't even introduce yourself. Jasmine takes our order. Food comes out faster than expected. Great! That's where it begins to go downhill. Jasmine never brought cutlery to our table. We had to ask and wait longer than I think it should have taken. Mind you I saw how P was working her table. Jasmine checked on the gentlemen several times. A family sat at a table on the other side of them. She was speedy with their service. More on that later. The gentlemen leave. Mind you Jasmine hasn't come back to our table at all. Wait once after we got all our food. That's how we go cutlery. I've drank my glass of Diet Pepsi. Would be nice to get a refill. She comes back with a wet rag to wipe off the table where the gentleman sat THEN asks if we need anything. I ask for a Diet Pepsi refill. Bae is in the bathroom and I let her know that he wasn't satisfied with his meal. She just looked like "oh, okay". No server should ever want to hear this. We did not ask for a manager. Meanwhile across the restaurant P has already served and turned that four top. Recall they were sat after us. As I continued to look around other tables were getting soda refills. AND I saw piping hot food delivered. Bae's eggs weren't piping hot. I mean "steam" was coming off these other plates. Bae came back to the table as I was telling Jasmine he wasn't happy with his food. We went there for French toast. He ate one piece. Half his eggs and half his potatoes. He asked for the check. This is after I'd asked for my refill. So I asked again. Jasmine brings out all the food for that family's table. She even brings. An extra plate. Looks over and must have remembered our requests. In the time she went to get an extra plate I could have had a soda refill which I really wanted to drink my soda in the restaurant as I finished my meal. She instead brings it in a to go cup. Fine but had she been more attentive I would have had a refill at the table. Enough about the mid level service. In case you're wondering Bae did tip her 15%. His food did not arrive piping hot. I didn't get a refill. We had to ask for cutlery and watch everyone else around us get better service even those in our section. No, the restaurant wasn't packed but patrons steadily flowed in. We shouldn't have been there for as long as we were. The food? Not terrible except the meat to bread ratio in the patty melt (see photo). Thin party. It was very tasty. I enjoy a good patty melt don't expect the meat to be that thin. The grits? Ouch! Not a lick of salt in the cooking liquid. If you do have salt in the water, please double it. Once I added salt they tasted fine. Bae didn't complain about the coffee so I will say that was fine. Bae says we're not going back to this location. Which is disappointing since it's a short drive and one of few places that serves regular degular French toast. I knew Jake's on Wendover and Downtown would be packed due to GHOE. The Battleground location was busy and getting overflow from the place up the street from them where we went first so we didn't stop there. As we were leaving Jasmine was already talking to the new patrons at the table where those gentleman were sitting. They hadn't been there two minutes whereas we easily waited five minutes before being acknowledged. I'm not saying don't go to Jake's. By all means give them a shot. They have been a Greensboro staple for decades! Our experience this time was less than 4 stars. That's all.

We ordered our food to go, but the atmosphere inside was nice when we stopped in to pick it up. Our previous frustration wasn't necessarily bad food--it was inconsistency. We'd experienced unanswered calls, calls answered without anyone speaking, and trips there only to find nobody there. That had kept us from returning for a while. This time, my son loved his waffle sliders and gave them a 10/10. My shrimp and grits were also a 10/10! They were flavorful and easily the highlight of my meal. My husband enjoyed his three-piece wings and bacon, egg and cheese biscuit. The biscuit earned an 8/10, although he wished there was more filling to balance the amount of bread. I ordered a strawberry shortcake waffle but received a strawberry waffle with strawberries and strawberry syrup instead. That was disappointing, and I passed it to another family member, who enjoyed it. We landed on a 7.5/10 for that one, factoring in the order mix-up. Overall, this was a much better experience and gave us a reason to return. I hope the consistency continues because those shrimp and grits and waffle sliders were worth another visit!

Upon walking in the place appeared clean, the customer service, not the best. But maybe someone was having a bad day, I get it. I'm so glad I did check my bag before I left because they did not give me ranch or plasticware, man I would have missed out on some amazing ranch. The young man gave me three ranches which I'm so disappointed I only grabbed one. Unfortunately I didn't get the best pictures but the food tasted great. The fries were thick cut (probably frozen) and let me tell you, I would just come back for the ranch! They have my favorite restaurant ranch. The slaw was really tasty - good ole southern sweet mayonnaise slaw, not too vinegary. The sandwich, not bad, good combo of toppings, they paired well together. I' ll be back.
