The food was just okay. The pancake was dry and even with the cannoli cream it was still lacking something. The waitress was friendly and fast however we were the only table in there at 3pm on a Thursday. The decor is just diner view. read more

Let me start by saying that customer experience is everything. I've been visiting Flashback Dinner for the past 10 years, and it's always been one of my favorite spots for traditional American food. As an Aventura resident, I've been a loyal patron, dining there at least 3 times a month. However, something has changed over the past 6 months, and the customer service has gone downhill. But what happened today was simply unacceptable. I arrived with my daughter for lunch and was assigned a server named Olga, who seemed more annoyed to be serving us than anything else. When I asked about the lunch or daily specials (which have always been delicious), she snapped at me with a straight, "NO, WE DON'T HAVE," and turned her back on us. The restaurant temperature was freezing--a chilling 52°, making it impossible to sit comfortably. We were literally shivering. When Olga returned to take our order, I asked for the ossobuco. Her response? Another curt, "NO, WE DON'T HAVE IT." I took a deep breath and tried to find something else on the menu. I decided on the Tres Amigos Steak Bowl--one of my all-time favorites that I don't even need to look at the menu to order. I ordered one for myself and one for my daughter. Olga, once again rolling her eyes, said, "WE DON'T HAVE THE MEDALLIONS. Just ribeye." While I didn't mind the substitution, I also ordered a side of truffle fries. Guess what? "WE DON'T HAVE IT." At this point, we were freezing and just wanted to eat. But the temperature became unbearable, and the service was so unpleasant that we decided to ask for takeout boxes so we could eat at home. When the check came, I was shocked to see that we had been charged for the Southwest Steak Bowl, which was $10 more per dish than the Tres Amigos Steak Bowl I had ordered. Olga claimed I had "agreed" to this when she told me they didn't have the medallions. Excuse me? If you don't have an item, you should show the alternative on the menu and confirm with the customer--not surprise them with a higher charge on the bill. Miami is notorious for up-charging clients in beauty salons, clubs, and other establishments, but in a restaurant? This is the first time I've experienced it. Olga's body language, arguments, and attitude while saying, "You have to pay," were incredibly unprofessional. Of course, I paid--I'm not a scammer. But in this situation, am I the scammer, or is it the restaurant? To top it off, the complimentary bread and butter, which has been a staple since the Reagan administration, was nowhere to be found. I can't help but wonder where the wonderful gentleman who used to manage this restaurant is. Under his supervision, this would NEVER have happened. I am incredibly disappointed in what Flashback Dinner has become. Loyal customers like me expect far better. read more

This spot is convenient and open late. It's on US1 just next to the casino/ Calder race track. Food was average had the Cesar salad and my friend had the burger and was huge! Service was fast and friendly. The ambiance was super quiet and chill considering it was late night. If you're hungry and want a quiet place to eat this would be it! read more

This place was so good! Better than IHOP and dennys! The service was absolutely amazing and it's super diner vibes here. We can hear 2 times in our short trip for that late night bite. Everything was so good but that apple pie warmed up with vanilla ice cream was our favorite. Definitely will be back. read more

Wasn't super impressed with Flashback Diner. One server was clearly running the whole show and doing it well, but we had the other server, so our service was slow and it seemed like she didn't really care. The food was just okay. I asked for crispy bacon and got normal bacon. The pancakes were alright but didn't measure up to the "fluffy buttermilk pancakes" of the description. Maybe their specialities, like the holy cannoli pancakes, are better. The coffee also wasn't good. read more

Flashback Diner is located on Biscayne Blvd, right across from Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach. I recommend turning into Flashback from the red light at Gulfstream Park to allow easy entry into the private parking lot at Flashback with plenty of free parking. We dined at Flashback on a weekday evening and were warmly greeted by the hostess and were promptly seated. Our server came by a few minutes later and was very nice and provided us with a warm greeting and offered us suggestions on the menu. We started with a carafe of Chardonnay wine ($27.99) and it was a decent quality for the price. They also provide you with a complimentary loaf of Challah bread to start as well. My husband and I both ordered the meatloaf ($17.99), including two slices of meatloaf, mashed potatoes, and a green veggie. The diner had amazing service, and the food was the definition of comfort food. I highly recommend giving it a shot if that's the type of food you're in the mood for. I'm a little puzzled why some of the reviews are so low- so disregard these and definitely give them a try! read more

Just finished breakfast here, though the food was decent and the portions good, the service was not so good. With a waitress berating her co-worker in front of the customers, to the no personality of our server our visit was very unpleasant and underwhelming. Even once we finished our meal and were at the cashier to pay, we were completely ignored by the same waitress who was yelling at her coworkers. On top of that, the A/C wasn't working, so the place was definitely hot and uncomfortable. Although they were complaining about it amongst themselves, there wasn't any apologies or explanations to the customers. Upon paying our tab, the waitress never even looked at either of us and just walked away. No thank you, or have a nice day....Nothing! Overall, not a very good or pleasant experience. Especially with restaurant business in a difficult situation, with poor traffic, not the way to treat customers. Needless to say, we won't be back. read more

Was at Flashback Diner pretty late in the evening. Eggs, bacon, and pancakes all were good. Waitress was very quick and upbeat. It has a classic Diner vibe. Highly recommend!:) read more

Ordered apple pie. It was delish last week, served cold with whipped cream. Tonight it was warmed, runny and tasted like glue and no whipped cream. The server said"we always warm it up". After she said it several times I asked to talk to the manager. She said she was the manager. I told her she was rude and was not accommodating the customer. She never said sorry or offered a replacement. We had coffee, paid bill and left never to return to this location. read more

After all of the times that I have been here for my muffins, I have to be honest that a very recent visit I had when I came here was awful, all because of their waitress named "Dawn". She's a bigger older lady with Black hair, ....dyed and straightened. She started giving the other young female waitress who was attending me dirty looks just because I was the only one there or because this "Dawn" lady obviously had a problem with me. She also made me feel very uncomfortable to sit on the upper level stool on the marble table, ....because she decided to sit at it's very edge to be all up in my face and stare at me. Worst part about this entire thing is, the big guy young manager did ...absolutely NOTHING about the incident, claiming that I must have been mistaken because his Dawn is a kind old hag is what she is. The younger manager big guy from here obviously lets staff get away with acting disrespectful with customers, as he is a barber shop looking delinquent from Miami himself. People like this in this establishment think it's cool to be nasty. I will not be back here, not even for their DRY cranberry muffins. My first review of this place on MY FIRST TIME ever coming here was 5 stars, until this happened to me here. They are also short staffed and you can never get anyone on the phone. I tried their cheesecake with a glass of ice water and it was overpriced and the quality tasted absolutely terrible! Now I definitely understand why this place is SO freaking slow EVERY single time I came here. read more

We came here for dinner with friends. We'd been here many years ago when looking for a place with a variety of options -- to suit everyone's different cravings -- and thought we could do the same this time. We came early and they were not very busy. In any case, we had good service. And there was plenty of parking in their private lot. You can have breakfast here all day. The eggs were cooked as ordered; the sausage links well done; the waffles were light and fluffy. The matzah ball soup was decent. The "ball" itself was huge. It also came with wavy noodles. The broth was flavorful. The spanakopita -- spinach pie -- was a large square with flaky filo. It was served with two large ripe red tomato slices. The Buffalo wings were meaty and only slightly spicy. It was a mix of drums and flats with celery. You got to choose between ranch or blue cheese for your dipping sauce. We were too full for desserts. But they had quite a few appealing cakes, et al, in their display case. Next time, I'd like to try their chicken and waffles or even one of their Benedict's. Good to know they're open whenever you're hungry and in the neighborhood. read more

Came the to Flashback for the first time and I was pleasantly surprised! I came for lunch and ordered the soup and half sandwich special they offer. I chose the Matzo Ball soup and for my sandwich I chose Tuna. I really enjoyed the soup, it had the right amount of salt and flavor I was looking for. And for my tuna sandwich, it was way bigger than i was expecting, I could barely finish it. Overall I thought the food was really good. Shoutout to Tama for being a wonderful server, she was really sweet and attentive. I would definitely come back and recommend this diner. read more

We ordered 2 meals and a dessert from the Diner. One of the meals (corned beef hash and eggs) was missing. The delivery bag was stapled shut, so it's not as if it could have been taken. The second meal was supposed to come with cole slaw. No cole slaw was included. One of us is now without dinner. Not pleased. read more

Got carry out for dessert. The portion (apple pie slice) was on the small side. They did warm it. Ordered a side scoop of ice cream. It was more like a half scoop. They had a tough time scooping it out of the frozen container. Nice, but I won't go back. read more

December 11/2021: Not a bad place. It definitely retro if that's what you're looking for. A family diner. Sunday morning & the place wasn't busy yet. The food was good tasting but not great. I have the Benny Goodman. Eggs were done perfect but neither the eggs or the hash browns were hot enough. Lost a star for slow food delivery & the temp of the food. I'd go back but I'd make sure on my food instructions. read more

Although the service was excellent, the food quality has diminished. I ordered a grill chicken breast with two sides Mac and cheese and mashed potatoes with gravy. The Mac and cheese is always excellent the chicken however was dry and bland. My husband got the salmon bowl which was wonderful. I just wish the chicken breast was just disappointing for me. read more

Like most places some dishes are great others not so much. Plus I haven't eaten there since 2018. Burgers and fries are superior; anything with turkey means fresh roasted turkey. Giant five inch high pies. Servers are personable read more

I have to say most diners I've been to have very weird tasting eggs - not this place! I had their veggie omelette - it was delicious! I loved the food! The "home fries" could've been better. Overall we were happy with our service and experience. I do plan to be back. I did see several patrons come in on a Sunday afternoon for the meatloaf so may try that entree in the future. Decor is cute and on theme, parking is ample, and place is well kept. read more

we went here at the peak of lunch hour. No other table had patrons. the waiter told us they were out of several menu items. my guests ordered lunch, and had no complaints. I, however, only had coffee, which wasn't fresh. the waiter took our Amex card, then came back and said they didn't accept Amex. all in all, we were not impressed, and although we were there for over an hour, no one else came in the establishment. I will not be returnin. read more

I came with a large group of 10 people for an 8am breakfast. They have plenty of seating for large groups. They were short staffed and had a couple mix ups with the dishes ordered but the food was very good. The coffee cups all stayed filled. This is a 24 hour dinner. Much better than a Denny's or IHOP. It does cost a little more but to me, it's worth it. read more

Flashback Diner was a favorite of mine for 15 years. Back then the parking lot was filled. It must have been sold. No cars in the parking lot. Bad omen. The restaurant was EMPTY. Ordered a lean corned beef sandwich. I asked for lean. Waitress said we don't do that. I told them there is a reason the parking lot is empty. I left- never to return. Don't waste your time or money! read more

The best thing about this place was definitely the service! Our hostess was so nice and had the best customer service. I chose the chicken Parmesan for my entree. The chicken was good and well seasoned however i wasn't a big fan of the noodles they came with as they were larger and there wasn't enough sauce for them. They have a large selection of sweet treats to choose from cakes to pie and cookies.For dessert i chose the cheesecake topped with fresh strawberries and whipped cream, it was absolutely delicious so decedent and creamy i would highly recommend trying it! read more

Food and service were great as always! Stacy during the graveyard shift is always amazing, but now the place is closed from 2am - 7am and it used to be 24 hours. Last time I came and saw it was closed I had to eat at McDonald's. I really hope ownership reconsiders opening 24 hours as I myself and a lot of people I know like to come in and eat late night! read more

Moved to Aventura two years ago and the Flashback Diner was the first place we visited. Reminiscent of the diners we have fond memories of visiting in Jersey. Interestingly, there were many regulars there (we could tell by the conversations they were having with the servers) which is always a good sign. The food was served quickly and was excellent. We were serviced with a smile and the prices were good. We have now visited several times (at this stage only for breakfast) and have had the pancakes (nice and fluffy), eggs (made the way we like them - scrambled for my wife, over-easy for me), link sausage (big and juicy like in Jersey), waffles (nice and crispy) and corned beef hash and poached eggs (corned beef crispy on the outside as it should be, eggs poached to perfection). Our only negative, they did not have a big variety of pastries/cakes (which we're used to seeing in the Jersey diners). But, if that's our only complaint, our waist sizes won't mind. After reading the review on the mashed potatoes and meatloaf (my wife's favorite meal), we're going to try that on our next visit. We'll keep you posted! read more
