Their Nutella French toast is my favorite item on the menu. The employees are nice and have a great setting.

I've been here three times thinking, "certainly it can't be as bad as I remembered." This time, the grilled cheese had one slice of cheese on barely grilled bread. Consistently bad to meh. The only star is because its open 24/7. read more

One of my favorite diners of all time. Try the huevos rancheros or mexican breakfast. Or if you are feeling bold, go for the Lauren special - coffee with cream and sugar. read more

This is our go to late night dinner spot! Everything I've had here is always great. Be it banana pancakes, waffles, fries, huevos rancheros....Also tried the Tilapia veracruz/shrimp veracruz... loved it...The frnech onion soup was delicious ...You must try the cheesecake and the Tres leche cake...Its the best!!! read more

The Guatemalan breakfast is excellent, with unique flavors and wonderful seasoning. It is served with seasoned rice,Guatemalan beans and warmed tortillas. read more

Don't be fooled by the out dated look ... I haven't had anything I didn't like at this little diner in danbury. Service is quick and friendly. A great spot at any time if day or night. Since they are the only place in the world that advertises open 8 days a week lol read more

I went here a few days ago for breakfast, and the food was great. They have your standard breakfast options along with different breakfast wraps and omlettes. Beyond their breakfast items, they have so many options to choose from. They definitely have a variety of foods if you can't choose what to get. I would recommend and will eat here again read more

We were in Danbury for a show, originally from middle of Connecticut. The food was awesome. We started off with the gravy fries really really good. Had a cup of chicken and rice soup and it was great and had stuff clams and stuffed mushrooms for dinner, very tasty. Service was quick and our waiter was very attentive. I can see us driving down to Danbury for the food again. read more

Found this place by accident and the food is great staff is friendly price is reasonable the menu is unbelievable looking around I see plenty of things I would like to try and I will come back I recommend it to anyone read more

Great place to come for any time of the day. They are fast and the food is very good. Great selection and variety of food. We come here often and have never had a bad meal. read more

Ordered breakfast for pick up and everything was under cooked; bacon, French toast, and home fries. It was awful and overpriced I will never order again! read more

Stopped here for the first time this past weekend, and I won't be back. To start with, parking is tight. the lot is long and narrow with a limited amount of spaces. They do allow overflow parking in an Asian style eatery next door. I could not relax the entire time I was seated, as cars would pull into the lot, realize there were no spaces available, attempt to turn around and nearly hit the parked cars. The service was attentive, and friendly and the overall establishment was a little run down albeit clean. The food was terrible. I realize its only a diner, but the omelette I ordered was barley edible, and resembled something I used to get in my high school Cafeteria. The coffee was very weak and tasted burnt. Needless to say, I won't be going back. read more

Good food for a diner. Prices were not too bad either. Open late obviously.

Diner with a south american twist. Good food and interesting choices. Parking can be tough at times but they are open 24 hours. You can tour their kitchen if you want - they seem to welcome it. Efficient and very polite service. read more

My husband and I got takeout last night and really liked the food and friendliness of the staff. Everything was still hot when we got back to our hotel, which was nice. While we were waiting I noticed that this was another really clean diner. read more

People that work here are really very nice, food is typical good diner fare. Open 24/7. Clean and friendly . read more

Elmer's Diner - Welcome to tour the kitchen - that's a good sign - Diners Near Me - Danbury, Connecticut

Really good food, consistent, and quick. Plus they're open 24 hours a day. Not a bad choice!

The service and staff was great. They gave you a pasta salad when you sat down the was really good. Our meals were delicious and portions were large, even the kids meals. Will definitely be back!! read more

I love this diner. The people are so friendly. Service great and I love the food. Just had broiled salmon, roasted potatoes, corn and carrots. Yum! I can't eat dairy and everything is made with olive oil. In other places , that can be a boring substitute. At Elmer's, the food has flavor. Portions are big too. I've been to Elmer's more times than I can count. I'll be back! read more

Elmer's is fine, and I've basically liked the food I've had, but after last night's dinner experience, I knew I needed to finally leave a review. Elmer's. ELMER'S. It is 2018. You have GOT to STOP using and serving margarine. Not only does it taste TERRIBLE, it is HORRIBLE for you. I don't know if it's a cost cutting measure or an issue of REALLY outdated misinformation, but your prices are on the high side of things and if I'm being served generous slices of warm challah bread before my pretty-expensive-for-a-diner meal, margarine RUINS the bread and leaves a vile film on the tongue that puts a damper on the rest of the meal. The challah bread was missing the characteristic hint of sweetness one expects from good challah, so eating it plain was not much of an improvement and I quickly gave up. The rest of my meal was okay; chicken cordon blue with what was advertised as a mushroom Alfredo sauce was nice, but lacked salt. The "Alfredo" sauce was a light mushroom cream sauce, to my relief. However, it and the mashed potatoes I substituted for the fettuccini were most likely made with margarine based on the way they separated as they cooled and when I reheated the portion I took home. The salad dressing (blue cheese) also separated or the lettuce was so wet that a pool of unappetizing liquid was left behind, and I could not eat it. I learned not to order dessert at Elmer's years ago, so I ended my meal with a Shirley Temple, impossible to get wrong. My friend (she only had a cappuccino that she said was fantastic and looked gorgeous) and I chatted for hours after paying and our water glasses were still regularly refilled, which was very nice. I'm not going to stop going to Elmer's as it is the only halfway decent 24-hour diner option left in Danbury and I work second shift. I'd like to be able to say "Hey, let's go to Elmer's!" with a smile instead of "I don't know, I guess we could go to Elmer's" with an unenthusiastic shrug. Cooking with and serving REAL BUTTER is the first step to get me going in that direction! read more

Great diner. The menu is what you would expect from a diner. Basic american fare with a few Central American additions. The food is good, the place very clean, and the staff is very friendly. If you are looking for a great basic diner, this is it. read more

I usually visit Elmers late night after getting out of work. Since I always enjoy the food, I decided today to order delivery through Vroom. I chose the Greek Specialty with beef since I love the gyro omelette at Elmers. My food arrived early to my excitement. I opened the bag and to my disappointment the salad was crammed into the same container as the hot food. I pulled the french fry covered gyro out of the container and set them aside. My poor salad was warm and half wilted from being tucked under the hot food. I started to eat the salad until I saw a bug on one of the carrots. (I do have a picture.) I removed the carrot and ate the salad anyway. The fries were bit soggy and undercooked, which isn't a huge problem because I was really most interested in the gyro. Turns out it was just beef in a pita. It wasn't a gyro at all. I suppose I could have put the salad inside the gyro, but then why pay the extra for a specialty platter if I have to use half the platter to make a gyro? I would have just ordered a gyro if I knew this is what I was gojng to recieve. It'll probably be a while before I go back just because I'm so disappointed in my food today. read more

Elmer's Diner - My sad carrot with bug garnish - Diners Near Me - Danbury, Connecticut

Service good, food quality just horrible. on top of that they didn't have most of the beers on their menu.

Best dinner in Danbury, food the best, service the best, at first it dose not look like much, but it's much more then meets the eye! If you only tried it once then you are missing out. Price's may be higher, but well worth it!! read more

Best diner in Danbury! Huevos Rancheros for breakfast...delicious! Service was fast & friendly. Parking is an issue, but use the aux lot, it's worth it. read more

Always go here with family and friends (I think) with Elmer. the food comes in within 5 minutes and tastes great

Convenient location, menu offers everything like most typical diners do, but the food is definately average. Other diners in town might offer less choice but the overall food level is higher. The people are friendly but it has to be all about the food, and often it can be just so average. read more

I am a big diner goer and really enjoy typical diner food. I have to say, the food here was very tasty. Everything tasted well seasoned, prepared well, and what you would expect good diner fare to be. The staff here is very friendly as well. It is nice to go to a place where you are guaranteed to be greeted with a friendly smile and good old comfort food :) read more

The service was fast and friendly. The Chicken noodle soup was good but the burgers were a little greasy for our taste. We would come back again if ever in the area. read more

Horrible! Who ever puts scolding hot food on top of a container of lettuce and tomatoes?! All I received is a a piece of pita bread that looked like it was out in the rain for 12 hours with some lettuce that looks like it's from 2013 brown as hell! Do not recommend! Never again and way over fucking priced for food I wouldn't give my dogs!!!!! read more

Personally, I consider Elmer's to be a go-to location in Danbury. I typically work until 11pm, which makes going out to eat very tricky, but the fact that Elmer's is open 24 hours makes things a lot easier. I typically eat here 2-3 times a week. I have had nothing but positive experiences with this place and the wonderful staff. Is the food the best I have ever had? Absolutely not, but it is definitely worth the price, however stick to what is on the menu. I personally prefer the Breakfast Combo as it is quite filling. read more

Literally the FASTEST service I've ever gotten at a diner. Always clean and food is always hot and delicious. They don't care if you're there at 1pm or 4 am you still get great service. read more

My favorite diner in the area. My friends and I always come here. Staff is friendly, the restaurant is clean and new, and the food is very good. They are open 24 hours also which is great. Not to mention their location is excellent. With something for everyone on the menu at an affordable price, you can't go wrong! read more

The service was ok. We came in really hungry. Ordered standard diner food mozzarella sticks with marinara sauce along with a Brazilian burger. My pregnant wife ordered a BLT. The food wasn't terrible but it wasn't with the money. The waiter never checked on us until the bill. Brazilian Burger-was way undercooked and Burger was similar patty to a frozen box burger from stop and shop. Fries were very good. Mozzarella sticks were awful. Marinara sauce was awful. BLT- how do you mess this up...well by putting chewy thin microwave bacon on it. I always saw this place with a bunch of cars in it but I now am perplexed even more. If you want a good place to eat and good diner food, head to JKs on south street. Much Better quality food and staff. Trevor read more

The breakfast is amazing! A bit slow on Sunday mornings but it's probably because it gets so packed. Had the Chicken Gyro today and loved it! Open 24 hours in Danbury which is a big plus! Friendly staff! read more

I luv Elmer's, the food is delicious and the portions are more than enough for me. I always have enough for 2 meals. I haven't been in a minute, I need to hit them up ASAP!!!! read more

I love this diner. Their service is very fast, and staff is attentive and friendly. My friends and I come here often because you can't beat their prices. Their menu is huge and they cater very well to groups of all sizes, large and small. It is a clean, family-friendly environment. read more

I know he took a bath on the failed restaurant next door but now it seems to be dragging his diner down too. Prices are way too high for diner food. Skimping on help is ruining this place. read more

ONCE UPON A TIME this was a GREAT diner. I have NO idea what happened, though, because our visit today was abysmal, just horrible. We went for breakfast, but seeing it was noon by the time we got there, we decided on lunch. It wasn't easy to decide what to eat, though, because the menu is HUGE. Pages and pages of selections, the actual menus so large we kept bumping them into each other's across the table. Now what was odd was that the place was nearly empty. Only two booths, one a Spanish-speaking couple next to us, the other another couple across the room. We wondered, because this place had always been packed. So I ordered the chicken fried steak with veg and mashed potato and, of all things, an English muffin(??) came with it. My husband got the stuffed pepper, with similar sides. Okay, now down to it: The "steak", which should have been a nice cube steak, was this 1/8" thin WHITE-ish thing with an insipid coating (it came frozen out of a box!!!) The "mashed potatoes" were from a box. The veg sides were steamed, bland, carrot slices & canned corn. Worst of all, my stomach HURT after eating the "steak!!" My husband's stuffed pepper had COLLAPSED--we realized that it must've been cooked long ago, defrosted, and microwaved!! His sides were like mine, awful and bland. AND he also got to feeling sick, he actually felt nauseous after the meal!! It was astounding to me how awful it all was. AND the waiter, who I'd previously asked, before ordering, about the cube steak, had no idea what I was asking. I wanted to know whether it was actually cube steak, because clearly, ownership has passed to people who don't know much about American food. I asked him if the chicken fried steak was actually a cube steak, and he kept insisting it was "round" (not a "cube", folks). OMG. And when he reluctantly asked how things were and I told him the truth plainly but politely, he just shrugged and WALKED AWAY. WHY WHY WHY didn't we just send that crap back when it came to the table?? is what we kept asking ourselves!! "We were hungry" seems a dumb reason now, trust me!! And also trust me when I say DON'T GO THERE!! read more

This is a diamond right on main road. Stopped by this morning for breakfast! The owner is super nice and typically on site greeting guests and helping out if needed. He is surrounded by a great group of wait staff. They are always very welcoming and attentive. The prices are reasonable and great portion sizes. If you want to feel like you are home, give this place a try. read more
