We've tried just about everything on the menu at this point, and every single dish has been outstanding. Everything is prepared beautifully, and the service truly outshines any other restaurant nearby. It has that warm, homey vibe where the waitresses even know us by name. Their specials change often--my top pick is the short rib gnocchi, which is absolutely incredible. And definitely don't forget to BYOB! If you haven't tried this gem yet, you're missing out.

Dinner starts with the most amazing garlic knots then moves on to the salad with the a delicious and very unique house dressing. Dinner is any number of choices of Italian classics.... the eggplant parm is my favorite. But the best part is that Sunday to Thursday they have a great deal where you get two entrees and an app for a ridiculously low price. ANd that fact that it is BYO makes this not only a delicious but completely inexpensive evening out! We always make a reservation as this place can get pretty packed. Also, ask for the main room ... there is an additional room but it lacks the cozy feel!

So many great choices! I can't wait to go back and try more.

My wife got the coconut shrimp taco (loved it) and my daughter a general Tso's quesadilla which she found to be too spicy, but I thought was pretty good.

Since we had a little time, we decided to stop at Walmart first to grab a few things before picking up the order. When we finally arrived, we let them know we were there to pick up. The two girls at the register looked at me and my friend like they had no idea where our order was. After I showed them the order confirmation, they suddenly realized and said, "Oh, it's the big order." Then, instead of resolving it right away, they told us that someone else had already taken our order because they gave it to the wrong person. What really frustrated me was their reaction; they just stood there looking at us like, "Okay... what do you want us to do?" Eventually, they asked if we wanted them to remake it. Of course I said yes, we had already paid for it. We ended up waiting even longer while they remade the entire order, which completely defeated the purpose of ordering ahead. What's worse is that they never called or gave us any kind of heads-up about the mistake. If they knew the order had been given away, why not contact us right away? That way, we would have known when to come, or at least they could have started remaking it immediately. On top of all that, we were not compensated in any way; no apology beyond the bare minimum, no discount, nothing for the inconvenience and extra time we had to wait due to their mistake. It just doesn't make sense that they waited until we showed up, confused and looking for our food, before deciding to fix their mistake. The lack of communication, urgency, and accountability made an already frustrating situation even worse.

From the moment we walked in, the counter staff greeted us warmly and let us pick our seats. The diner itself is charming, decorated with a fun I Love Lucy theme that gives it a cozy, nostalgic vibe. The menu has all the diner classics you'd hope for, plus some creative twists (fried PB&J, anyone?). They also offer a rotating specials menu, which keeps things exciting. I ordered the coffee flight, funnel cake French toast, home fries, and bacon. The coffee flight alone was worth the trip--delicious flavors, beautifully presented, and only $8.99. The funnel cake French toast was light, airy, and cooked to perfection--it really felt like I was eating a funnel cake for breakfast. My boyfriend went for the country fried chicken with gravy and biscuits, and it was equally delicious. Throughout our visit, the staff checked in often and made us feel like family. We noticed they seemed to know every regular by name, and there were plenty coming in during the short time we were there--a sure sign of a beloved local spot. We'll absolutely be back, and we highly recommend The Lacey Diner to anyone in the area looking for a great breakfast experience!
