I had breakfast here on Valentine's Day. Our waiter was fantastic. Really nice and very efficient. We ordered the smoked salmon omelette and the country breakfast. The country breakfast was good, I enjoyed it. Unfortunately, my friend did not enjoy the smoked salmon omelette. I saw her picking around it and not really eating it. She said it was very strange to have cubes of salmon in the omelette. Not what she expected. She said it didn't taste like anything. A little disappointing. I think I'll stick to lunch here. read more

I've been to City Limits many times over the course of a good 15 or so years, and I can sum them up in two words: reliably good. This time, I gave them a visit with some family and found myself satisfied once again. Like many other diners, they have a very wide selection of dishes and drinks that you can't really go wrong with; similarly, you might have one or two standout dishes that you always gravitate towards--in this case, mine have to be the crispy cod sandwich with cilantro mayo and fries, and the grilled salmon club with dill spread, asparagus, mushrooms and field greens (out of the five of us, two had the former, and the rest had the latter). For the salmon club, the freshness of the arugula and dill combined with the flaky salmon makes for the excellent pairing if you want something lighter, while their crispy cod paired with the cilantro mayo is great flavor combination if you're fine with something a little heavier. While they have plenty of options for drinks, I opted for their cold-pressed orange juice--you simply can't go wrong with it. Likewise, the service is great, and the aesthetic is, all things considered, slightly upscale for what you might expect for a diner. This restaurant has been good enough to keep us coming for over a decade, and I can say with fair confidence that this isn't likely to change anytime soon. read more

Lunch. Seated as soon as we entered - the place is large enough to accommodate a lunch crowd so a wait is rare. The waiter came, we asked for water all around. Sodas and coffee for me. Very efficient service. The drinks came quickly. I was put off by the taste of the water - I mentioned that (but what can be done)? so I stuck with my coffee throughout the meal. Not a bad thing - the coffee is delicious and freely refilled. The food we ordered arrived promptly - a cheese omelette, the turkey wrap and a sandwich. All flavorful and generously served. We enjoyed the meal, the Diner looks great and we'll definitely be back. (Hopefully the water will be better.) read more

Food was great! I did have to keep tracking down my server for a fork, napkins refills on drinks etc

Stopped here as the last leg of our NY trip. Glad we did! It's a huge place and we were seated right away! I must say their coffee was amazing just a regular cup of Joe but very good quality- usually I find diner coffee to be meh I enjoyed the corn beef hash - you could tell it was made in house - seasoned well but not too salty as some can be! The poached eggs were perfectly poached! I did not eat the hollandaise sauce as I'm not a fan but I'm sure if that's your thing it's good! My only complaint would be it had very little potato in the hash but otherwise enjoyed it. Our waiter took good care of us - making sure either our coffee cup or water glass stayed full. Warning for those that don't do steps well - if you have to use their restrooms they are located down a steep stairwell to the basement level! I did find them clean and well stocked. read more

Upscale diner menu, not as extensive a menu as a traditional Greek diner, but more appropriate for when a family member says they don't want to go diner in general lol. As everyone is saying, any of their food items that are from their onsite bakery, or star their crabcakes are always ideal. We were in a rush, so my wife had the taco appetizer and I had a Swiss omelette. Both a little pricier than comparable diner fare by about two dollars per meal, but seemingly worth the price. The waiter was very considerate and attentive. According to my wife as we were leaving, the take out rice pudding was killer. Named the best Diner in Westchester 2025. Not sure I agree, but certainly up there in the running. read more

City Limits Diner in White Plains absolutely lived up to the hype. I was visiting my son, and he suggested this spot since he's eaten here a few times already--always a good sign. Even better, the place was packed on a Tuesday at lunch, which says a lot about how many returning customers they have. He ordered a burger, and I went with the steak and fresh-cut fries. Everything was delicious. The steak was cooked to perfection, exactly how I asked, and the fries were hot, fresh, and clearly made in-house. Great food, great energy, and clearly a local favorite. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm visiting my son. Highly recommend! read more

I came here for brunch and it was delicious. I ordered the spicy chicken wings as an appetizer. Then I ordered the crab and lobster Benedict which was ok. It came with some potatoes that had chives. I enjoyed the wings they were crispy and flavorful. The blue cheese was also really good and creamy. The eggs Benedict was good and the cake did have some crab, I did not really taste the lobster. I would order another item next time, I saw a lot of pancakes and burgers. While the Benedict was not bad it was not something which was memorable. The egg was cooked well, the consistency was good. I also ordered the hot chocolate which was very good. The service was good; the space is really big so we did not wait for a table. The environment is friendly and inviting. I would definitely come back. read more

Second time going here and the food was very good. Asked for a medium steak but it came medium well which is fine. It still tasted great. We ordered several of the crab cakes they were so delicious. The omelette was okay. I usually get a coffee but the cappuccino was delicious. Ambiance is a fancier diner setting. The staff was receptive and friendly. Will come again. read more

How have I not written a review for this institution??! Been going here for 30 years and it's everything you want in a very nice diner - it's welcoming, cozy, delicious, loving, with the kindest servers and the best City Limits Valrhona hot chocolate, mac and cheese, shrimp wrap, crab cakes, Valrhona chocolate pudding, and middle eastern sampler. Love their egg creams. Have celebrated birthdays, graduations, Christmas Eve, and just an ordinary day here. There's no place like City Limits. 5 stars!!!! read more

I came here for breakfast on a Saturday around 9:30. It was busy, but we were able to get a table immediately without a reservation. They have a pretty good breakfast menu, somewhat similar to a classic diner, but pricier. I ordered the huevos rancheros. The dish was tasty and fresh, and they were able to swap the eggs over easy for scrambled. The portion size was a bit small. My dad had the smoked salmon omelette, which came with multi-grain toast and shredded potatoes. He enjoyed it and had enough for leftovers. They have a large bakery selection in the front of the restaurant so you can buy pastries and desserts without dining in or take something to go after finishing a meal. They have a parking lot with a good amount of space for patrons. read more

We have been coming to the City Limits diner for over thirty years. For many years it was my family's favorite restaurant where we would go for wonderful breakfasts, lunches and dinners. A few years ago we moved from Westchester to Manhattan, however when we're in the neighborhood, we often will come here for a meal since we know their food is always consistently delicious. Yesterday we had some errands to attend to and we came to City Limits for lunch. Although it was Fter two in the afternoon, their large parking lot was filled with cars but fortunately we found a space and given the size of yheir dining rooms we were quickly seated. Ruth was our waitress and we each had delicious salads. What really impressed me was something I never experienced before. We were planning to visit friends and I was thinking of bringing them a large container of chicken soup. When we first walked in to the restaurant, I noticed that in addition to their retail bakery, they had containers of soup for sale. I asked Ruth if the soup was very salty and her immediate response was that she didn't think so but offered to bring me a small sample so I could taste it for myself. Within a few minutes, Rith returned with a small bowl with the doup that was indeed not salty but absolutely delicious. Of vourse we ordered a quart and asked if she could add it to our bill. I assumed Ruth would just get one of the prepared containers from the retail department but instead she returned with a quart of the soup from the chicken in a bag with fresh bread. My friends were delighted with their gift and we were very impressed with Ruth's dedication to providing us with a wonderful lunch and great service. read more

Okay-food diner that looks pretty nice inside. Service was friendly. Fries were pretty good, but the rest of the food was a mixed bag. The focaccia grilled chicken sandwich sounded good but the focaccia bread was a bit too spongy and soft to properly hold the chicken and veggies. The kid's chicken tenders had way too much breading making them less appetizing. Prices seemed higher than more traditional diners. It was okay for a quick stop while traveling but not one to revisit. read more

A few new menu items have been added since Covid-times, which is a relief given that this place severely trimmed their menu at the onset of the pandemic. The recent additions include spaghetti and meatballs, breakfast burrito, ham and cheese croissant sandwich, acai bowl, and others. The spaghetti is fantastic -- better than what you may find at a pizzeria; a generous amount of garlic elevates the tomato sauce, and the creamy ricotta on top adds depth to an otherwise ordinary dish. Not to mention they give plenty of meatballs! The breakfast burrito is also solid, but texturally it's a bit of a wet mush. Steer clear of the smoked salmon omelet. The salmon is diced into tiny cubes and the onions would be better if they were caramelized more. Also, the babaghanoush has changed -- it's not very good anymore. Tastes store-bought. Service is always good and the Christmas decorations are iconic. read more

There is a free parking lot for customers of the diner. The entrance has a bakery area for muffins and other treats. We were seated quickly and our service was excellent. My husband remarked on how efficient and on top of managing his area that our waiter was. The food is good. The waiter recommended the gluten free blueberry almond muffin and my husband loved it. The food is pretty good for diner food, the portions were good. I enjoyed the bacon and the potatoes. I thought their hollandaise sauce was quite good as well. This was my 2nd visit and I thought the food was even better this time. read more

Packed diner on a Monday holiday lunch - lots of folks here. Parking was tight, and the lot had a terrible smell, I think their trash hadn't been taken out and the lid was open, so the smell wafted over the whole area. Inside, clean and simple bakery upfront with a desk, large space inside for seating and a lot of people enjoying food. The salmon benedict was ok; the English muffin was actually quite tough even though I left it for last with the egg and sauce all over it. The calamari coating fell off the calamari and the marinara was ok. The chicken sandwich was good on first bite, but then rapidly revealed an overly charred piece of chicken in most of the sandwich, which was not the kind of flavor I enjoy. Hashbrowns were a square about 3" x 3", and didn't hold together well.. would've been better crisped up a bit more. Ice tea was $7.50/2 cups on the table (apparently a free refill?). Overall service was fine, but food missed the mark for me. read more

My second visit to City Limits Diner was much better than my first. I think it was because I asked my server for advice in what to order. She suggested the soup of the day which was a Chicken Shrimp Gumbo and it was delicious and satisfying while at the same time fulfilling all the needs of "diner soup" (not too spicy, all the vegetable chopped into tiny bits and cooked completely through). But it had enough of a latin flavor to it to feel special. I also ordered the turkey burger with a salad instead of the fries. The bun on the burger had a nice cake-like brioche quality to it. And it came with a well prepared cranberry sauce on the side. The salad was fresh and the lettuce was varied. The beer menu is more adventurous than the wine and I ordered a delicious IPA on draft. For dessert I had the fruit tart, again at the suggestion of the server, and it was a generous portion of glazed fruit that had been fresh when it was prepared sitting on top of a tiny pillow of light custard with a touch of caramel taste to it. The flakey tart crust was surprisingly light but held the delicious fruit and custard mixture in place. And the single espresso that I ordered with it was a real espresso. It is a large place and you might need to flag down a staff member if you need something. But I found the service to be friendly and efficient. Good value at a reasonable price. I will return! read more

I've only been here for breakfast and have never had a bad meal. Challah french toast, lox loaded bagels and orange waffles are all faves. There's never much of a wait, if any, and service is prompt. Iced coffee is hit or miss but when it's good, it's amazing. Employees are pleasant and smile or say hello even in passing. Definitely worth checking out. read more

Staff is quick, they turn over tables at a great rate. In terms of diner ambience, this is probably the best you'll find. No 80's lighting, you get more sunlight coming in. I had the Scrambled Eggs and Acai Bowl, both were good. As someone who does not like bananas, they were a bit much in the bowl, but you live and learn. Price is very high though, buyer beware.

Subject: Kindness and Great Service at City Limits Diner Dear City Limits Team, Today, October 7th, my friend and I went for a late lunch at City Limits Diner in White Plains -- one of our favorite spots for a fantastic meal. My friend enjoyed a delicious burger, and I had my all-time favorite, the Chicken Meatloaf. As always, our waiter was friendly and accommodating. After our meal, I was walking to the upstairs restroom. Since I use a cane, one of your waitresses came over and kindly held the door open for me, even reminding me to "remember to lock the door." What a thoughtful gesture! I walked back to my table smiling, and when my friend asked why, I shared what had happened. As we were leaving, two waiters behind the bread area each came forward to hold the doors open for me. These small acts of kindness truly make a big difference. It's this kind of genuine care and courtesy that keeps us coming back to City Limits again and again. Please extend my thanks to your wonderful staff for always going above and beyond. Thank you City Limits Team, James B. Volpe read more

Came here with family after a graduation across the street . Definitely appreciate being accommodated with our big party. We were seated and given menus, bread is given only after request (that should be better communicated prior). Ordered the tropical mojito cocktail that was bright and very tasty. Also ordered the margherita pizza, very flavorful and delicious. Nice, relaxed atmosphere although the staff definitely had a rush due to graduation day; they managed well. read more

Very large diner with a homey feel Prompt service No loud crooning or music overhead just a faint volume. Comfy seats with nice cushion and solid backs The fruit was fresh, crisp, and tasty The Caesar salad was plentifully adorned with generous and well cooked and moist chicken The western omelet was perfectly cooked and had more onions (2x) than peppers or ham. It was served with a modest sidecar of fruit. The BLT was a near miss-- the bacon was crumbly and when you chopped into the sandwich it crumbled all over the plate. But for the one or two spears of moist bacon that saved the day and made it a loss but not a fail. The onion rings needed more salt and the crust separated from the onion base too easily so it was more a cooked onion + toothsome crust as opposed to a crispy onion ring. read more

The biggest compliment to any business is a repeat customer and I have been eating here with my family for years. The food is consistently fresh, delicious and the atmosphere is family friendly and not pretentious. I've tried most of the dishes on the menu and they are all delicious. My family leans pescatarian so our favorites are the lemon orange waffle, the cod sandwich, shrimp wrap and the crab cakes. The bad--and dare I say grumpy reviews, baffle me. You go to this place on a Saturday or Sunday morning and thank your lucky stars to get a table because there is a crowd and the parking lot is bustling. The wait is usually short though. The food is reliably good at a decent price. That lemon orange waffle is pure magic, with REAL maple syrup! I am a serious foodie and have eaten at great restaurants all over New York and the world--and must confess this is the only diner I have comfortably and consistently dined in. I am happy to have this gem in my backyard. read more

I have eaten at City Limits many times. I have always thought that the food was good-plus. But...recently ordered the chicken salad for lunch.

I will not be back until the memory of the chicken fades. read more
