I went to this diner while visiting Delaware with my family. The four of us were seated very quickly in a wi dow booth. I ordered the Quarterback Platter. The platter consisted of: 3 eggs, 2 slices of bacon, 2 slices of scrapple, grits or home fries, toast or biscuit. I chose the home fries and toast. When the food arrived I was excited until I noticed the bacon and scrapple were over cooked. Both were crispy and hard. I didn't complain though because it seemed really busy. My suggestion to a future visitor would be to tell them how you like your Meat items cooked. The food was decent however. read more

Dover Hollywood Diner - Chef salad, yummy - Diners Near Me - Dover, Delaware

Never order a steal of any cut! Order a steak tonight for dinner, it was 3/8 of an inch thick and differently not a rib eye cut of meat! So sad! Also was costly, two slices of bread and maybe could have made a sandwich. Not a good one! Just not good! read more

Place is clean. Food is very good. Service is always amazing. It's our go to for a quick bite.

Great food, very enjoyable space, and the staff were fantastic--super friendly and helpful!

our server was very sweet. My mom and I both got eggs and pancakes. The pancakes were notable. It was really quick and extremely affordable.

My gosh the food is delicious at this diner. The staff is very knowledgeable and have no problem with helping you. The only problem that I personally had was in one part it was too chilly for me. Rather than complain I just make I take a jacket and I avoid being seat in that area. This was never my favorite diner until it opened this last time. Good affordable food you can enjoy. read more

Dover Hollywood Diner - Western Omlett - Diners Near Me - Dover, Delaware

Sheba and I decided we were quite hungry after a morning of trails & such. We decided grand to our handy dandy Yelp app to check out the Hollywood Diner. It's a real diner, meaning lots of chrome and linoleum, a counter with desserts in a glass case, etc. We were seated promptly and brought drinks, then given time to review the substantial menu. I chose the special chili stuffed potato skins. I pray that these will become part of their regular menu because they were delicious. Sheba got the monte cristo which she happily devoured. Service was great, efficient & friendly. The restaurant was clean and comfy. Huge parking lot. We'll be back next time we are in Dover. read more

Dover Hollywood Diner - Diners Near Me - Dover, Delaware

This was a very "just ok" breakfast experience. As diners go, it was fine. The service was the best part of the experience. The people were kind and attentive. The food was edible but not amazing. I ordered the 2x2x2 breakfast with scrapple. I'd never had scrapple so have included a video showing it off for anyone else who never tried it and might be curious. It was crisp on the outside but surprisingly soft in the center. Visually, there were very few pork scraps included...so the taste was mainly from the cornmeal/flour mixture used to create the filler. Because of this, the best way I can describe it is like friend gravy. It was okay but I wouldn't order it again. My toddlers happily ate their pancakes and Turkey sausage. If I go back here, I'd honestly just want to try something out of the cake display. All of those look amazing! read more

The food is always great here but today we ordered the RIB EYE steak and eggs. Sadly the RIB EYE wasn't a RIB EYE. I've eaten steak my entire life and I honestly can't say what kind of steak we were served. It was mostly fat and gristle. I'm not even sure it was steak. ??? The eggs, potatoes, toast and coffee were great. Peter was a fantastic server. I was treating my wife to breakfast for her 75th birthday . To the manager of the Hollywood Diner: This was not up to the diner's standards and was a big disappointment. We don't want a refund, credit or replacement meal. We won't be returning... Just tell the truth about what type of steak or meat you are really serving! I'm giving a 5 Star rating because your staff works hard to make the Hollywood a good place to frequent. read more

In town for the car show at the race track, I needed a decent breakfast before traveling home. The Dover Hollywood Diner did not disappoint. There are the usual items: eggs, omelets, breakfast meats, pancakes, biscuits, grits. Thinking I would need to go to my second favorite, I checked the back and surprise! Belgian waffles! Anything on them, I was asked? Fruit? Bananas? Strawberries? How about whipped cream? And the strawberries were fresh! A traditional diner, the staff knows the regulars and chats with them. A very comfortable place for dining alone as I was. Friendly folks, with fabulous food served fast. read more

I enjoyed my time at this diner. We came in on a Sunday evening and had the choice of the lunch/dinner menu AND the breakfast menu. I got a Monte Cristo sandwich. This was different from any other Monte Cristo sandwiches that I've had because it was served open faced. It did not have powered sugar or preserves, so I asked for some jelly. It was quite tasty. I enjoyed it. The french fries were good as well. My son had the double cheeseburger with bacon. It was big and he said it was very good. For dessert we ordered a piece of cannoli cake. I would not order that again, as I did not care for it. The cake seemed dry, and I couldn't really taste the cannoli flavor. I'm confused as to why they called it a cannoli cake. Our server was Dominique and she was a sweetheart. Very friendly and attentive to our needs. The ambiance was fun! The diner had booths, tables, and countertop service. I will eat here again when I'm visiting Dover. read more

This is a place that is diner-ish. Food is tasty. It was just what I was looking for! The meatloaf was tasty/flavorful. Gravy was a good , just the right consistency, for me.

The service and food were excellent. The place is light, bright and CLEAN! I had a two eggs and bacon breakfast with coffee, and they were great! Prices are extremely reasonable. The old management was horrible and that is why the bad reviews. Hopefully you won't come here because this is my new breakfast spot.

This was one of those rare occasions when you wish you could rate higher the 5 stars, Dover needs more restaurants like this one. We came to Hollywood Diner for Breakfast. Even though it was Mother's Day and the parking lot was full, we were seated quickly and everyone leaving during our short wait was smiling obviously happy with their visit too. The server, Katie, was friendly, efficient and had perfect amount of attention to our table. The restaurant was clean and checkout was quick. The food was not only perfectly prepared but the prices were more than reasonable! My wife and I just found our new favorite Dover restaurant. Keep up the good work! read more

I don't know why this restaurant gets so many good reviews. I found the food bland and not what I heard or read. My order was the seafood omelet with grits. The omelet was supposed to include shrimp & scallops. If i had 3 shrimp it was a lot. The scallops were no where to be found. Scallops wer non-existant. Overall the omelet was bland and unappetizing. I could have floated in the grits since they were so watery. No taste whatsoever. The staff is nice and courteous but unfortunately it does not make for the poor preparation of the cuisine. read more

Truth be told I've only ever eaten breakfast there. The food isn't bad. Nothing stands out as being great. The only problem I normally encounter is some of the waitresses seem like they're being bothered to do their job. Prices are pretty good. read more

Love this diner, so glad it has reopened. Now let's talk about my last 2 experiences.Went last week for a late lunch and ordered hot turkey sandwich. Turkey came out with bright yellow gravy which didn't taste like turkey. Went today and had crab beni, it came out with the same gravy. Now I know that's supposed to be yellowish because it's supposed to be hollandaise. Soo did my turkey have hollandaise or did my beni's have turkey gravy? read more

Good atmosphere! Good food! Good, attentive service!!! The sweet potato pancakes is a MUST try!!!

Absolutely horribly managed; check-in is chaos with an illiterate hostess who gives seating preferences to those "who look like" her. Once finally seated, had to flag down staff for coffee and patiently watched tables getting served while our food was obviously forgotten. We were seated for 30 minutes before I finally was able to get our server's attention; when asked about our food, it was obvious that she had not ever put our order in. She was apologetic but didn't seem too concerned about it... Needless to say, we left hungry and frustrated! This was not our first visit there, shame on me for returning, but the diner is definitely getting worse. read more
