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
Tsz-Cheong C.

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

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.

5+ Stars! We stopped by today as a random choice for lunch,…read moreand didn't realize we hadn't been here for about 4 years! And the food and service is just as good as it's always been. First, a shout out to Danny, for his superb service and friendly, professional demeanor. And to our surprise, he was our server 4 years ago and remembered us! Now to the food. My Spaghetti with Lobster and Mussels, with a zesty and delicious Fra Diablo, was deliciously perfect! My wife had the Branzino entree, also delicious and perfectly prepared! Dessert was the smores sundae to share, a great choicee with some hot coffee. A perfect afternoon with beautiful lakeside seating. Thank you Danny and thank you to Gatsby's for a spectacular lunch experience!

They start you off with some warm buns served with honey butter and they were GOOD. So good that we asked for more and then tried to stop ourselves from devouring them before our food even arrived. For appetizer, we ordered the crispy calamari. The batter was very light and the calamari itself was so delicate and sweet. You can definitely tell how fresh the seafood is and that stayed true for the rest of our meal. For pastas, we got the spaghetti fra diavolo containing lobster and shrimp. Again, the seafood was fresh, sweet, and tender. The pasta was also a shocker, not only was it perfectly firm, it had such a nice chewy texture. You can feel and taste how homemade the pasta is. Next, the rigatoni eggplant was our unexpected favorite. The pasta texture was even better with the rigatoni shape and the eggplant was not even noticeable, it blended in so well with the sauce. The ricotta on top was the perfect creamy addition. For proteins, the pork chop was very tender and juicy. The sweet glaze wasn't overly sweet and it really complimented the savoriness of the meat. The brussel sprouts on this dish were also outstanding. I love when a restaurant doesn't treat the veggies as a side dish! The branzino was light and refreshing, it was a really great balance to the other saucier dishes we had. The service was extremely attentive and so friendly. They really took care of us and made sure we enjoyed our meal.

Well, I'm not sure how much the city of Roslyn has to offer though, so maybe it's the place to be as it got pretty packed as the evenings went on. I went once for dinner and had a pretty good shrimp cocktail with large shrimp and bland cocktail sauce, even with the extra horseradish. My seared tuna was overcooked, but had a nice flavor. Seared usually means some type of crusty charred goodness, but this didn't have it. The chai creme brûlée was good, but the sugar wasn't torched properly and didn't have that snap, crackle or pop which is what it's supposed to have. On a second night I went for cocktails which were $20 a pop! Yes, it was a bit pricey, but they were well made... with the exception of not having a luxardo cherry in "The Brooklyn". The staff was friendly and remembered me from the night before. They have a pretty good menu, and also a separate Indian menu and seemed to be a place for some local celebrations going on. Good (not great), pricey and very close to my hotel room!

The waiter was very helpful in giving us options to modify. We were served promptly, food was great. A server was going around giving everyone a piece of bread at a time.

Ultimately, our experience ended up right in the middle--some hits, but a few noticeable misses that kept it from being a stellar meal. The Highlights: The Coffee: Easily the absolute star of the morning! Rich, smooth, and brewed to perfection--it was easily the best part of the entire visit. The Atmosphere & Service: The overall setting is lovely, and the staff kept things polite and attentive throughout our meal. Where It Fell Short: The Drinks & Food: We ordered virgin mojitos, but the orange juice base tasted surprisingly flat and off, almost like it had been sitting out too long. The Omelette: I ordered a classic omelette, and while the presentation was decent, the execution was just plain bland. It felt like it was lacking key seasoning or fresh herbs to give it life, making the whole dish feel pretty uninspired. All in all, it felt a bit sub-par compared to the usual Roslyn dining standards. That said, brunch can be hit-or-miss depending on the day, and I'd still be open to coming back to give their dinner menu or other options another chance.

He never came to get our dessert order. Mind you and folks bringing the food and filling water and removing plates were very good and we avail ourselves out of their service to fetch the waiter. The seats were comfortable the lighting bright and the piped in music and cacophony of chortling diners a bit overbearing. Couldn't hear or be heard--frankly that was not a big deal since nobody really wants to hear what I have to say anyhow and nobody was revealing the directions to some hidden treasure. Please do not put 10 people at a table for 8...we were packed around the table like sardines. Numerous times when I was cutting my steak someone knocked into me and I easily could have sliced off a finger. The appetizers-- the calamari was absolutely perfect. Cooked perfectly and seasoned just right and also the coating was adherent and did not slough off when I cut the rings in half or champed on them. The friend zucchini is a signature appetizer for them but the garlic sauce steals the show! The meal--I ordered the fillet with an extra robust char and said medium would be fine. It came blue rare. No waiter to be found to cook it more but the bus person obliged. When it came back it was still rate but at that point I didn't have it in me. It came with a beautiful bulb of garlic! I applied the garlic and some butter and blue cheese dressing to the steak and with or without this amalgam it was amazing! Really worth all the logistics and service shortcomings. The creamed spinach was seasoned and cooked perfectly. The coconut cake was dense and rich--in a good way! It was delicious and I highly recommend it. I would have given the restaurant 4+ stars but the noise and poor waitstaff performance knocked it down to 3. I'll go back but will ask to sit in a less noisy location and/or ask for a white or grey-haired waiter.

I had the eggs Benedict with salmon and the eggs were cooked perfectly, nothing runny on the outside and the yolk with just enough firmness around the edge to hold its shape but plenty of golden lava to dip into.

Seating inside or outside, for dinner or lounging, plus plenty of parking in their own lot.
