Diner - Indian Food - Diners Near Me - Kimball, Nebraska

This place is not a diner, it is an indian restaurant. Do keep that in mind and research before coming because if your are expecting waffles and pancakes etc.. you wont find that here. Food was okay, not enough flavor but genuine and came out quick. read more

Good food, fast and friendly! We love small hometown diners, and this did not disappoint. Not much to look at but fast and friendly service with reasonably priced and delicious food. read more

I ate here once upon a time and the roast beef was excellent. Now it closes at 2 pm. When would I ever be able to eat here?

We were looking for a bite to eat before heading back to Texas this morning and this diner was across the street from our hotel. We walked in and we were sweetly greeted and asked to find our own seat. This diner is a quaint little place with Midwest charm. Our waitress greeted us and swiftly got our drinks while we decided on what we wanted. There were lots of locals having breakfast, lots of chatter, a perfect local favorite dining place. My husband decided on the breakfast steak & eggs, it also came with hash browns and toast (or 3 pancakes) and I decided on the western omelette and it came with hash browns and toast (or 3 pancakes). Our meals came out quick for as busy as they were. Our meals were hot and plated nicely. My husbands steak was cooked to order (medium rare) and a nice, thick piece of meat, with grill marks and all! You just don't see that much any more! He was pretty impressed and that's a hard thing to do! He said the steak, eggs and all was delicious! My western omelette was fabulous as well. The ham and vegetables inside were cooked before they were added to the omelette. That is uncommon too. So yummy! I ate every bit of my plate! We both recommend this place and give 2 thumbs up! If we could take this diner back to Amarillo, TX we would! Keep up the great job!! Take a break, get off I-80 and have a bite to eat! read more

Best and only place to eat at Kimball. This is a place where everyone knows your name (except mine cuz I'm from Cali). I had the chicken friend steak one day and omelette the next. I have to say it was pretty good for a small town diner-type food. I would come back if I'm in the area. read more

Rueben sandwich, sweet potato fries, onion rings, grilled chicken sandwich, sweet tea and unsweat tea is what my husband and I ordered. All were very delicious! Would definitely stop in there again. Very nice waitress read more

Very friendly people. Doesn't look like much from the outside... But worth going in for a bite to eat. I just had a cheese burger and fries. However they have homemade soup and daily special read more

This is a great place to eat. Has always been great service and food. Had a patty melt and was awesome read more

This place has a strong aroma of an unappetizing nature. Their food is pretty good though. If you are passing through Kimball, NE, this place is about as good as you can expect, but I recommend you get your food to go and eat at a rest stop picnic table or in your vehicle. read more

Easy access off the freeway, friendly staff, clean, great food at reasonable prices! We had the grilled cheese and the club and they were both very tasty! read more

First, a correction to the stated hours. The Diner IS open Sundays until 2pm. I went to the Diner after church on Sunday, and discovered that many others were doing likewise. I opted for "second breakfast" instead of lunch by ordering steak & eggs. I was not disappointed. It's simple fare, but getting it all exactly right (especially the medium rare steak) is uncommon these days. Kudos! I'll be back. From a dustance, the lunch items also looked to be worth a try. read more

OK let's face it it is Kimball and there's not much choice. With that said they do have a great little diner and this is it. From the outside you wouldn't think much of this restaurant but when you get inside immediately feel welcomed and the service is very friendly. All the food I've ever eaten here has been wonderful, fresh and hot and well seasoned and I've never had a bad meal. The service is always good and I would have to say that their breakfast is their specialty. Also a great value to boot. If you're in the area give the Diner a try you will not be disappointed. If you're a guest of the hotel you can even order for takeout and they will put it in containers for you so you can go back to your room and eat your dinner. By the number of truckers in the parking lot you can tell this place is quality. read more

Diner - Be sure to visit this Diner in Kimball, Nebraska! - Diners Near Me - Kimball, Nebraska

This is the only restaurant in this town. Don't know if it was just the morning and the people that were there but the minute my family and I walked in everyone in there just started staring. Look I get the dingo dango home town redneck crap but come on don't be rude. The Waitress needs to retire as she forgot to put our order in all together and was extremely rude. After waiting an hour, our food finally showed up, was mediocre at best but good for the middle of nowhere. This place needs to work on their service to the customer. I'll be hitting the Pizza Hut next time. read more

The food is always good. Service is friendly. I always leave with a full stomach. The prices are really good. I will always stop in as I pass through Kimball, Nebraska. read more

This was a welcome sight for sore eyes after being on the road for 15 hours. The food was better than I expected and there was a ton of it. Nothing really stood out but overall, it's good breakfast food. They were also extremely fast in bringing out our meal. read more

This was an excellent place to eat as we drove thru the area. Plan on coming back when we are headed home in a few weeks. Highly recommend! read more

Kimball, Nebraska right off I-80 come hungry. No fancy tablecloth with matching china and real silver but wow! The food is GOOD, WHOLESOME, TASTY, and PLENTIFUL. You must have the Boston Boil soup--a meal in itself and piping hot. Order breakfast all day anytime but I had a hamburger steak-made to my specifications (peppers, onions, & Gravy) and blew my diet out the door! I am marking this location so anytime I am within 100 miles I WILL BE BACK! Plenty of parking for cars or RVs. Very reasonably priced. read more

Food was good, service was good. Not a bad thing to say about this place. It is THE place to go in Kimball, NE

Good food, good price. And a very friendly staff. One of my favorites out on the road. Located with plenty of truck parking. Great place.

On a road trip, Saw full parking lot and trucks, Curb appeal lacking. I had a Rueben. And it was excellent. Not pressed tasteless corned beef. Cut from a roast. Not huge but very good. Unc Danhad a huge bowl of homemade vegetable soup....Aunt Lona a sr. had the kids menu cheeseburger and fries. Very friendly. No ambience. Just good food and great following! read more

Great little diner. Service was speedy and food was delicious. Right off Interstate 80.

Light airplane pilots are always looking for another good destination for weekend flights. 10 of us landed at Kimball Airport and descended on the Diner this morning. They gave us our own room, started bring coffee and soft drinks before we had all been seated. Orders were fast, food delivered to all of us at the same time, and continued great service. Food was great, prices very good. We will be back for another NE adventure. Thanks for everything. Rich Barclay, Kelly Air Park, Elbert, Colo. read more

Their food is delicious, their potions are huge, and their customer service is next level. If you are passing through I suggest you stop in.

When traveling from San Francisco to Chicago and back, my wife and I love to stop here.

The food is always a really great quality with excellent service to match. read more

If you are looking for a true blue american diner make a quick turn off route 80 and stop here. The waitress was kind and the food was good and simple and simply good. Classic white building with a sign that says DINER which is all it needs to say. Great place to grab a well priced breakfast of eggs, hash browns, home fries and a cup of coffee. A huge pick me up to get you back on road and make a good start to the day. read more

Good place to eat. It's next to the Conoco by the highway. I got a lot of food for the price. I ordered the chicken tender dinner and it had 4 tenders, a salad, mashed potatoes, a roll, and some green beans for only $8.95. Don't judge the building by it's appearance, it's much better on the inside. The staff was very friendly too! read more

Very friendly and great food. Even though got there 10 minutes before closing, ordered dinner and got no complaints, in fact we apologized for cutting it close and their reply was "no problem". Great service, near freeway I-80. read more

Was recently traveling to Scotts Bluff Nebraska from California on a Friday afternoon and came across "The Diner" on S. Hwy 71. Service was friendly and quick. prices were very reasonable. You don't get a good cup of coffee in CA for a buck. Great burger too. Tried to stop by for a road cup of coffee next day but they close at 2pm on the weekends. read more
