The food is diner food; good, greasy, and what you want in the morning. The service is the best! Cassie, Sierra, McKayla, Maria, G, & Michelle make us feel like family. Our boys (2yrs & 1yr) look forward every Saturday to waking up and seeing them all. The music is never too loud and the decor is a throwback that brings comfort! read more

Adorable vibe. Fantastic service. My friends' omelettes with home fries and toast were huge portions. The Greek one especially looked delicious. I had the Greek salad and it was just ok. They were very busy for a Monday morning. read more

We were driving over to Sam's Club and wanted to grab a quick bite to eat and I noticed George's. George's Linworth Diner is a very clean, well lit space. The service is wonderful. We had split a 1/2 burger and got an order of onion rings. The burger was good though I didn't think to ask for it cooked to a medium temperature. The onion rings were perfect and they definitely change their frying oil. We received refills on our drinks. If I'm in the area again, I would return. read more

Came by around 9:15 ish on a Sunday with a couple friends. They come here on occasion and love it. They were busy but still seats and tables open. We sat at a booth. Me and one of my table mates got coffee to start. Nothing special but does the job if you want caffeine. They come around a lot to see if you want refills. I got the 2 eggs, which come with hash and toast. Delicious! I was pretty hungry and ate it all up. My friend got 3 pancakes then added bacon and the other got an egg and a biscuit. He had eaten earlier. Good prices for good food. These days, I'm happy to salt and pepper my eggs and potatoes myself. My friend has high blood pressure and can't do much sodium anyway. Personally, I had no idea there was a diner in this little shopping center. Lots of parking here! read more

Great old fashioned diner, classic food on the menu, attentive servers and the old style decor and feel. Overall a great experience!

We didnt start here -we started at the "authentic" mexican restaurant in the same strip. No shade to the Mexican restaurant but we sat down there and my 83 yr old mother goes.... Huh. I dont feel like Mexican. (Gives me the can we leave vibe and look) so we left a tip for water and walked four stores down and came here. Mom walked into the diner and goes "yes, perfect". Lol. You walk in and the sign says seat yourself. There are lots of seating options. There is a long counter with stools. Opposite to that are booths against a wall front of the store there arensome tables in the window bay. Walls are decorated with a lot of Marilyn Monroe photos ect. Its cute. We plop into the booth. A server arrives with waters. Mom doesn't have to really look over the menu... her eyes light up. She instantly zones in on what she wants. "Ooooh I will have the philly steak ". I quickly decide to order a gyro salad. Food comes quickly. The philly steak came with a ton of chips. Mom goes "its good but the bun isnt a hoagie bun (it was beginning to sog) and it needs more cheese.... Other than that...yum". Im not quite sure what that means. So I ask her "would you want to come here again? " She says. Oh yes, then shrugs and says "just wont get this". Mom grew up in Downtown Philly... not the suburbs of Philly... she's judgy about her hoagies. Lol My greek salad (with gyro meat) was fresh, crisp. Had plenty of olives,cucumbers and tomatoes. Now I like gyros but this gyro meat I did not like at all. Like I would give the meat a 1 out of 5. I literally picked it all off and put it to the side. Disliked that. I did like the salad itself. That was like a 3.5 to 4 out of 5. Would get seasoned chicken on it. As far as the restaurant itself: I also would come again I would probably get breakfast or a hamburger, tbo. Id say this was about a 3.8/5 experience. I am certain if I got breakfast it would of been amazing and would of been 4 or higher. For that reason Im rounding up to a four. read more

Ordered the veggie omelet to go. It was very good, I love the home fries! Very few locations in Columbus offer home fries. The service was great and very friendly. Love the surrounding pictures. Gives you the retro diner feel but with modern look. Worth coming back. read more

I've been meaning to come to one of the locations for a couple years now, and today it just finally worked out. Met a friend here for lunch. I looked at the breakfast menu, but for once, out of 365 days in the year, I wasn't feeling sausage gravy and biscuits. I did end up getting country fried steak, with the sausage gravy on top. He got the meatloaf. We both got mashed potatoes and gravy, and coleslaw, as our sides; the potatoes were fine, coleslaw was pretty good. My friend's meatloaf was huge and very finely ground, nicely flavored, a good but slightly different rendition. My steak was excellent; the sausage gravy was fine, but didn't really seem homemade. Still, on top of the steak and the potatoes it worked very well. Service was great. There's already hot sauce on the table. Very reasonable prices for the huge quantities of good food we got. We came at 11 on a weekday and it was about half full, not bad. By the time we left at noon. it was pretty busy. I'll definitely try the other location, and come back to this one if I'm nearby. read more

This diner is where it's at! The space is bright and uplifting. I came here before work on a Saturday morning at around 7. There were plenty of seating options available so I chose to sit at the bar. The music was really fun and got my day off to a good start. The decor is classic diner. Very fun and old school. There's plenty of parking, too, which is very meaningful to someone like me who is used to the downtown spots. The food is fantastic. The prices are very reasonable and the portions are excellent. I did the Linworth Classic with eggs and ham and it was just what I needed. The coffee really hit the spot, too! The staff are very friendly and accommodating. The waitress took very good care of me, checking and making sure I had everything I need. I am such a huge fan! read more

Still coming back. They're solid. A few hiccups in the past where they've been closed randomly with no notice, no signs posted. But when they're open, they're worth it. Coffee topped up. Delicious Reuben omelette. Steak and eggs. And all the basics covered. I've never been disappointed in the food. They do get crazy busy at times, so - you may wait to sit, and your server may need a minute to get everything straight for you. But they're a diner, and they deliver a diner experience. read more

George's Linworth Diner - Reuben Omelet - 1/21/2023 so goooood - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Worthington, Ohio

It's a nice diner with great staff. Despite the raving reviews we've heard, we had high expectations for the food, but it did not meet them.

We were there for lunch on December 11. One of us ordered the vegetarian omelette platter. One of us ordered the fish platter. The fish on the fish platter was in edible. It was gray and incredibly tough to even chew. I asked the waitress to come and inspect the fish she did and then she brought over a senior waitress to inspect the fish. The senior waitress said that it didn't look right. They took the plate and showed it to the cooks and then dumped the plate in the trash. The person who ordered the fish ordered a hamburger and fries and coleslaw. The hamburger was so overcooked she could barely eat any of it. The fries were fine. We will not go back. The quality of food in the diner has declined. read more

They never have good lettuce. They run another business too. If they can't run 1 business, why try to run 2.

A cute and classic diner vibe!! The staff were truly incredible as well. The breakfast menu is super simple and customizable with the a la carte section! I ordered a pancake and two eggs, which came out super hot and tasted great. They are very light on seasoning items, my fiancé got the home fries, which tasted like they had no salt or pepper on them. Coffee was also super good and served in thrifted mugs. read more

The focus of the restaurant is speed. They have a limited amount of seating and are quite busy, as such it is quite a quantity over quality establishment. The omelette was poorly mixed with a broken sauce. The location felt cramped due to the number of full tables and the waitress while wonderful, was quick to ask if the food was "okay". It really feels like they are going for a four star experience, and know how to obtain that. read more

What a delight to visit George Linworth Diner ! The ambience similar to days past when visiting Goody Boy , Short North. I worked at old DN hospital and grab breaky after long hours to refuel and head home . Service and food did not disappoint. Open the door and staff friendly , attentive and welcoming immediately. Food and pricing excellent with portions to take home and enjoy later . Thank you for amazing experience read more

We eat there often. The food is good and the staff is friendly and competent . Pancakes and eggs are always good and hot.

Had the chance to check out George's Linworth Diner and was very pleased by our experience. It's a small diner but has plenty of seating and the service was efficient and quick despite how busy they were. There was a wait of about 30 minutes, which was expected for a weekend morning. The ambiance is pretty typical for a diner but there are plenty of unique pictures, signs, and the coffee cups were also fun. I ordered the buckeye pancakes with a side of scrambled eggs. The pancakes were fluffy with a nice amount of peanut butter and chocolate chips. My brother had a chicken sandwich that was delicious. We also had a cinnamon roll that was pretty good but not my favorite that I have tried. All in all I definitely recommend George's to all diner lovers. Great portion sizes and prices as well! read more

Came for breakfast on a whim. Got seated quick for a Saturday. Our server Carli was on the spot! She was quick and attentive. Our Greek Omelettes were delicious! Filled with feta and onions, peppers and gyro meat. I put hot sauce on everything but skipped it today Worth the stop! Diner vibes for sure Didn't get pic because I pigged everything down read more

Classic looking diner. George's is a good addition to the neighborhood. It seems old school. Even though it's a pretty new business. That's because they had an older one in another location. Basic diner drinks and food. It pretty much has what you expect should be here. The menu has breakfast and lunch. Coffee is pretty obvious at any diner. It's 2.50 with free refills. This isn't high quality stuff but you wouldn't expect that. As for the food there's the classics. For breakfast they have things like pancakes. The brunch and lunch includes things like burgers and steaks. A few vegetarian friendly items here. There aren't many but there's some. I tried the Vegetable Gyro. It's $6.50 and on a pita. This includes cucumbers, lettuce, onions, peppers, and tomatoes. It comes with a tzatziki sauce of some kind. This is good with Italian dressing though. It comes with a side of chips. This is pretty good and not what I call expensive. It gets very busy at breakfast. Lunch can get busy too and it can be slow getting food. They close early after lunch like many diners around here. read more

I'm a Reuben and onion rings connoisseur. This Reuben is in my top 3. My husband enjoyed his steak and eggs that were both cooked to perfection. The diner decor is spot on with a delightful counter seating or booth options and Marilyn Monroe decor adorning the walls. All topped off with excellent service from Gabby. We are in the area often and will definitely return. read more

Classic diner vibes. This place was poppin with the local crowds on Wednesday morning. And for good reason. We received prompt no-nonsense service from the waitresses and our food came out in a reasonable time frame. There's abundant booth and counter seating, in conjunction with cute decor adorning the walls. The menu spans breakfast classics (with some unique twists like the Greek and Reuben omelette), as well as sandwiches and platters. My mom ordered a half order of biscuits and gravy, which were both flavorful and plenty for her. My sister chose the Greek omelette, accompanied by hash browns and toast. As for myself - a California club which featured roast beef, ham, and turkey on a pretzel bun along with chips. All solid tasting and fresh. The total was under $30 for all three of us out the door. Check it out when you're in the area for a good breakfast/brunch! read more

Good diner with limited establishment exclusives. All your standards for breakfast and lunch. Fair portions and price. Clean environment with fast, friendly service. Servers attentive to refills of patrons in other servers sections. First responders and Military appreciation is always nice to see. Bench seats outside while waiting to be seated. Not much room to wait inside. Not sure how that works in cold months. Handicap accessible. Plenty of parking in a shared private lot. We will continue to return. #UpCloseSavor read more

Breakfasts are great. Service is always quick and friendly. Easy parking. Great value. My favorite place for breakfast. The home fries are fresh potatoes, not a frozen bird's nest as found at many restaurants. read more

I had breakfast at George's Diner this weekend with friends and it was very enjoyable. There was a bit of a wait but was completely worth it! Once we were seated, our friendly waitress quickly greeted us, brought coffee and took our orders. I had the Greek Omelette and it was good, didn't blow my socks off but was tasty. Next time I'll probably order something different as my friends all really loved their meals. As for the ambiance, George's is a cool modern restaurant set up like an old time diner complete with eating bar and lots of booths. A little cluttered but clean. I'd definitely recommend George's diner to anyone looking for a great breakfast spot! read more

My coworker and I stopped for lunch on a Wednesday at noon and the place was completely packed. There was only one table open, and we took it. Our very friendly server came right over and gave us our menu and took our drink order. When she came with our drinks, we placed our order. My co-worker ordered the Garbage omelet along with a small order of biscuits and gravy. I ordered chopped steak and eggs. After a little wait, we were served our meals, and everything was hot and fresh. I ordered the steak to be cooked medium and it was a little on the dry side, but still very tasty. The home fries were good. They were crisp in spots, and there was a good amount of them. I ordered my eggs scrambled and they were fine. It also came with toast, so I ordered white. Everything about my meal was good, it was filling and overall tasted good. I tried a little bit of sausage gravy and biscuits, and it just wasn't my type of gravy, it was not the type I like, I personally prefer Bob Evans gravy over anyone's. My co-worker really liked her omelet, she said it was full of flavor and was very large in size. We were both happy with our meals and if I am ever in the area again, I will stop by. read more

This is a great little spot in Linworth. I was a little put off by some of the negative reviews, but decided to go and check it out for myself. This place is busy, but i was seated in less than 5 minutes (and counter spots were immediately available.). I ordered steak and eggs and my girlfriend ordered the garbage omelette. My steak was a little chewy, but acceptable for the price. The garbage omelette was incredible. The service was outstanding, which seems to contradict a few reviews i read before going. This might be my go-to spot for local breakfast. This place is clean, friendly, has great service and delicious food! read more

Great food here! We usually go on the weekends around the times when it is typically busy and have to wait, but it really is worth it. Sundays seem to be busier than Saturdays for some reason. Sometimes the service is not always the best because they are short staffed some days. Also when you go in make sure to pay attention the the sign that either says please wait to be seated or seat yourself. It can be a free for all sometimes especially if the hostess does not come over for a while and there are 6, 7, 8 groups of people all waiting and no names have been taken. Despite all of this we still like to eat here because the food is just that good! read more

Nice breakfast place. Fairly new but apparently a copy of the beechwold diner? I don't know. Walked in on a busy Sunday morning and hit the timing perfect as we were seated almost immediately. Super bonus! I ordered a Florentine Benedict off the special menu which had tomato and spinach and bacon bits on top. I added slices of bacon which were very good and a generous serving. The Benedict's was cooked nicely...the eggs poached perfectly and a good amount of hollandaise on top. Not too much...it was just right. If I were to complain about anything it would be that the tomato was just a little under ripened but there were so many toppings it really didn't matter. I liked that the potatoes were homemade and perfectly crispy. My friend got the classic breakfast and a half order of biscuits and gravy. They enjoyed their meal as well. Whoever was on the grill making the eggs had it right on point today ...perfect again! And the sausage patties were very tasty! Service was fast and efficient and the place is spic and span clean. Lots of old photos hanging around which make it an interesting ambience. read more

When I grew up in Brooklyn, Abe Beam was the mayor and the city was a dump. The subway was $0.25 (with a cool token too), a slice was 50, and they still had penny candy on the counter - like a bulk box of loose swedish fish (yes, you reached in took what you paid for). A favorite spot back then, was a greasy spoon diner with low booths that T-boned up against oversized windows. Since it was a corner diner, there was always (mostly) a booth you and your friends could sit 2 to 2 for endless hours of insults and embellished stories. It was called the Promenade Restaurant, but it was a diner if there ever was one. Encased in yellowed walls and brown formica. George's Linworth Diner honors the Greek diner and Promenade of my youth. Its updated of course. Clean, well staffed, and with great food - despite an encyclopedic menu, making the waitress go three rounds of "need another minute" until finally making your choice. So memory lane aside, George's gets repeated visits because it's got the three muses. Good food - good price - good service. read more

Edit: the next day I went to the cutest diner at the OSU airport. It's called Jack & Benny's Barnstormers. Go there instead! It was delicious with great service. Now here is my review of George's: Cute place but never coming back. Pretty sure we were served decaf coffee and it was nasty. BLT was very basic, can't mess it up but it was bland. Didn't come with the promised pickle which should be a sin. Asked for a side of coleslaw with the BLT and it was also forgotten. When we reminded the server about the slaw and pickle, only the coleslaw came out and it came out when we were finished eating so we didn't even want it. We were still charged nearly $4 for the coleslaw that was late and gross. I got a hot cake which was a normal pancake, not bad. And corned beef hash which was awful. Service and food were crap. There are better diners around. read more

Hubby and I got seated right away. Server was pleasant I ordered the veggie omelet with crispy potatoes and rye toast. Hubby had side of corn beef hash and All American breakfast which came with bacon, two eggs, fried potatoes and English muffin. I thought the omelette was okay, not too much flavor and my potatoes were scattered crispy just on the top. Plus was the rye toast was the Jewish rye bread which you don't get much at restaurants anymore. Hubby enjoyed his breakfast but thought corn beef hash was just good. Not the best he had out but not the worst. One thing which was a bit upsetting was the cook was not wearing a mask. Go figure? read more

I wake up one morning and decide that I want a breakfast that I'm not willing to cook...eggs, potatoes, sausage, bacon, biscuits, etc., etc., etc. Having lived close to George's Linworth Diner and Elena's for a while, I have to decide. Seeing that my breakfast is going to cost upwards of $20 at Elena's I opt for George's and head out. When I arrived at around 9:00, I see that there are probably around 10 customers, but the place is far from packed. So I take a seat at the counter and ask for a cup of coffee. It's the typical diner coffee that I expect, so no complaints yet. The woman behind the counter spends her entire time (as in, my 45 minutes there) talking on the phone that she has tucked between her shoulder and cheek and filling coffee filters to keep the coffee makers running for what must be the next decade. The number of filters she filled and stacked on top of one another in the space of three-quarters of an hour was truly amazing. As this was happening, I placed my order and sat patiently. When my scrambled eggs, three sausage links, toast, and potatoes arrived, I was astounded to see how much food I was receiving. The eggs and potatoes lacked flavor, so I added salt. But the amount was enough to keep me going through the rest of the morning and most of the afternoon -- I skipped lunch but started my dinner at around 5:00. The food was good, in general; it was what I expected from a diner. It filled me and satisfied my urge for a diner-style breakfast. Will I go back? Probably. It didn't knock me off my feet, but it certainly satisfied my craving for diner food. And their biscuits and gravy looked pretty darn good. Maybe I'll even try it for lunch one day and order a burger or patty melt. Who knows. As I say, it didn't leave me wanting more, but it did leave a good impression. So, if you're in the area and want some great diner food, stop in! read more
