2 eggs over medium, sausage, French fries and 7 grain bread.

Clean and bright. Service was great. Food was fantastic. Nothing like a Long Island diner breakfast for this Cali kid returning home to visit. Highly recommended!

Entrance

Nestled on a little hill, the Glen cove diner offers you a typical diner experience. The moment you walk in, you're greeted with warm, friendly service, and an old-school charm that immediately feels welcoming. The menu offers you all your basic diner staples from hearty burgers, fluffy pancakes, and a great all-day breakfast. The portions are generous, and the ingredients taste fresh. We ordered the New England fish and chips, Californian eggs benedict, corn beef with hash with eggs and a tuna melt. The food was fresh and portion sizes generous. I was disappointed in the fries as they were soggy and limp. However, the coffee, although not gourmet, was strong and constantly refilled by the staff. The Parking lot is spacious, just be warned if you have someone in a wheechair. The push up to the door is a good upper and lower body workout. The landing area and door opening is tight for a wheel chair to maneuver in, as well as a little 2 inch step at the door threshold. Overall, Glen cove diner delivers good food with a very friendly and attentive staff. PS. If you pay cash, you get about a 3.5% discount.

What can I say?
The Review Guru ..

I don't normally give 5 stars on everything but this place "takes the cake", I mean literally. I ordered a spinach feta cheese omelette that wasn't even on their menu and they made it for me. I added home fries and rye toast. Instead I got "kibbles and bits" on the potatoes and marble rye. I don't want to site the potatoes as significant but to be honest I was expecting chunks of potatoes as if it was cut fresh. My friend had a club sandwich and fries that looked spectacular. It was so good and big from the picture enclosed he couldn't finish it. Let me add the attention to the coffee service. The waiters didn't stop on the refills and it was constant, Thank You The Diner inside is quite airy, modern with up-to-date furniture and lighting. The natural light coming through all those large windows worked well also with the ambience of the place. The Diner has 2 bathrooms co-ed, both with modern amenities and CLEAN. Parking lot is large with two entry ways, one from Glen Street the other from Pearsal Avenue. That right there should tell you something? If you past one entry way on deciding whether or not to eat here? You'd still have a second chance at their other entry location... LOL *STOP BY FOR A BITE and tell them the Guru sent you.

Quality of food , cleanliness ! Staff is great presentation excellent but it seems cook is not versed in basic American cooking . This is what happens with remote control ownership ! Want great Diner food ? Neptune Diner Jericho turnpike , you'll never go anyplace else in Long Island !!!!!!!!

Lunch with my co worker. We both had salads. These salads are real meals. You will not go away hungry. Excellent. Only bummer is Pepsi.

Cuban Breakfast
Kat E.

Diners are good when they serve great food. This was one of them! My sister brought me here for the fist time and I really liked the food. I had the Cuban breakfast. I have to say OMG. This was really good!! This consist of rice and beans with eggs, avocado and platinos. My sister had the pancakes that were made perfect. The place looks clean but there is hardly any patrons due to past experiences for what I heard. Will definitely come back!

French fries

Today was the third time and I had it. I ordered a burger here. Of course rare and this is the third time they used old hard meat and brought it well done. On top of that, for the first time, they gave me these old very salty fries that were not even hot and somewhat cold. Did they bring leftover fries to me? I'm pretty sure it is if it's this old and cold. The service is fine as usual. The waitress and waiter are friendly and all, but using old meat there times in a row, and this old salty cold fries at dinner is just absurd.

Wonderful food, service and staff. Everytime we visit Glen Cove Diner, we leave happy. Everything is consistently great which is a hallmark of a great diner.

French toast
Deanna G.

Excellent food! The Monte Cristo was delicious. The French toast and bacon were excellent and the Greek Benedict was divine. Amazing portions, delightful waitstaff and fast service. You can't go wrong here. I don't understand the lower than 5 star ratings!! If I ever find myself in Glen Cove again, we're stopping here for sure!

Cuban Breakfast
Timothy G.

Cuban breakfast is sooo delicious. I came here early Sunday morning as soon as they opened to avoids a crowd.

Formerly "The View" restaurant which was very underwhelming…read more When we first discovered The Marker, it was through delivery via Uber Eats. Even with the transit time, the dishes arrived shockingly delicious. Hands down the best seared salmon and chicken parm we could find in the area. Finally, we made it out to the restaurant and they did not disappoint. Friendly service and great outdoor seating. Extensive menu. Bread rolls - nice and warm Lobster roll 2/5 - lobster rubbery, bread falls apart Beet salad - 4/5 generous chunks of beets, citrus, and avocado Salmon - 5/5 nice sear and soft texture. Not fishy Pork chops - very tender and flavorful We look forward to trying it again. Also the brunch menu looks great!

Today the service was appallingly slow. We arrived after the lunch rush 1:30pm and after being…read moreseated waited at least 30 minutes for our water and lunch order. Bread baskets came out to 3 tables that arrived after us, we had completely empty water glasses and no one coming by to ask for more water. It took a long time for our food to arrive, meanwhile people who sat after us got served. There was also some confusion about which server was responsible for our table. We heard they were short a server but honestly, where was the manager? Every table suffered from a lack of service. We were down to our last bites of food when our server finally showed up to check on our meal. For the food: the salmon with the curry sauce was good, however the sauce had no sign of curry...more of a soy sauce flavor. I was disappointed as that was why I ordered it. Two of us got that. The 3rd person got the fried fish sandwich for $26 that Henry's could have done a better job. It's too bad that the man who appeared to be the manager seems to be doing nothing. Any restaurant with this kind of situation should have had a manager walking around, perhaps doing a small dessert or something that made customers feel better about the lack of service. Members of our family have been here many times but seriously rethinking coming again for a while.

In my…read moreexperience, splitting the time between your own beach chair, with time in the restaurant is the way to go. One night we reserved a fire pit couch set up for a 3 generation 6 person family get together. A great time was had by all, food, live music, and plastic cups of wine and liquor fueled a lot of laughter. Our latest visit, Lisa E and I set up on the beachfront around 6PM in anticipation of fireworks around 9PM at the Italian Festival on the other side of Hempstead Harbor. Just after sunset (apropos) we made our way inside the club, and found seating on the north side high top overlooking the beach. Lot's of fun people watching, split a decent burger with sauteed mushrooms and onions. G&T in cheap plastic cup and a generous pour of brown liquor neat primed me for the light show. We said our goodnight to the staff, made our way to our beach chairs and reveled in the shimmering lights from the ferris wheel and assorted carnival rides, then directed our eyes to a short but delightful fireworks show. In Lisa E and my opinion, you can craft an incredible evening if you just allow yourself to. Stop fretting about QR Codes, Toast Ordering,having to grab a drink at the lively bar (like the walk 10 feet will kill you) and choose simple foods that match the vibe. Go before they close for the season

A $200 reservation fee for a firepit table is a bit excessive in my opinion. That fee does not go towards anything on your fee from what the message stated. So it's a non refundable hold fee? And it's not something glamorous...it's just ordinary. The service is chaotic. They work hard. All very friendly and accommodating. But way too many people in and out to service btwn the restaurant guests and beach goers. The food is basic beachside eats. Nothing wow about it or stand out where id have to go back.

Incredible! The absolute best and unique plates I've ever tasted. Chef Rob didn't reinvent the crab…read morecake, he reimagined it. Chunks of crab between 2 pieces of toasted perfection. The other elements of the M&M sampler, you will have to try to believe. The grilled octopus. I have never tasted such light and airy octopus. It's as if it's a whole other species. Mind blown. Boar pappardelle - this dish belongs on chopped. The balance of seasoning on this dish is exquisite. The hand cut pasta married with a nice sweet sauce mixed with a surprising amount of boar comes together to sing on the palette. King salmon - gorgeous piece of fish served next to a fresh and tangy slaw while a sweet delight of a tomato rests on the opposite side. Another amazing element is the actual chef bringing out dishes. You actually get to see the man behind the meals. The brains behind the flavors. It's an honor to be in the presence of such talent. The restaurant itself is very cozy. Atmosphere is calm and the mood lighting does its job well. This is a must visit. I personally waited far too long to give it a try

We really enjoyed this restaurant!…read more I had a wonderful tequila cocktail I enjoyed immensely. The food was also very interesting and different. They have different kinds of lobster rolls that seemed popular with others but we didn't try. We did try the salad with breaded avocado which was really good and interesting. The octopus was perfectly cooked and very tasty. The service was also very friendly and the chef came out to check on folks. They clearly care a lot about people enjoying their restaurant and that care shows! Really enjoyable ambiance for date night.
