    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.

    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.

    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!

    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 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.

    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.

    Rare that I write a review.. but this Diner deserves any praise it can get. Honestly, just visited to spend an hour ahead of a 7pm wake service in Glen Cove.. and was greatly surprised. This is no ordinary place, although appears that was when you drive up. it has a fun, great array & a menu of cranberry chicken croissants, Cuban breakfast with avocado & chorizo.. More of a modest-cost restaurant. laid back and airy, its better than any Diner I've been to in years. Clean, quick service. Lots of space.

The service and food were amazing! The food was fresh and came out fast. Their menu has many options to offer, including gluten-free, soy-free, and dairy-free options. Good thing that the complimentary bread with olive oil is gluten free, dairy free, and soy free. I had Mussels Pots, Branzino, Assorted Fresh Fruit, and a cappuccino with almond milk. Others had something else, which I had no interest in remembering. We would come back again and highly recommend you check out this place if you are in Roslyn.

The restaurant, Gatsby's Landing, draws its name from the romantic nostalgia of The Great Gatsby. Situated near the Long Island Sound and Roslyn Pond, the setting offered a beautiful waterfront ambiance. My wife opted for the Baby Roasted Beets Salad, Salmon, and Crème Brûlée, while I chose the Lobster Bisque, Squid Ink Tonnarelli, and Tiramisu. The menu highlights their commitment to fresh, organic, and locally sourced ingredients - a promise they certainly delivered on. The dishes were both delicious and generously portioned. It was clear the kitchen doesn't skimp on quality; for instance, the lobster bisque was loaded with tender lobster meat, the squid ink tonnarelli featured an abundance of blue crab, and the salmon was a substantial, thick-cut fillet. The chef clearly possesses a mastery of technique, knowing exactly how to pair garnishes and balance flavors in perfect harmony. Furthermore, the waitstaff was both diligent and courteous. We can see why this establishment is so popular--the combination of exceptional cuisine, attentive service, and the serene lake views is hard to beat. However, there is one area for improvement: the restaurant should consider replacing their current chipped plates with larger, more elegant dinnerware. High-quality presentation would better reflect the dignity and caliber of the food they serve.

My first impression of the place was that it was beautiful inside and the lounge area was very cosy with a fireplace and couches. There's a bar area and seating both upstairs and downstairs on the main dining level. We were seated upstairs where it felt a bit cramped as they had placed 7 seats around one circular table. I had sat in the chair with the back to the wall and it was a tight fit and I could barely move my chair. The other tables were placed very close together and I could hear the nearby tables' conversations with how loud the noise level was. It was a busy Sunday afternoon and my family and I were starving and ready to order, but we experienced a bit of a wait since our server was attending to other tables. The waiter was friendly but the delay was noticeable. Now onto the food, overall it was average with some hits and misses. I highly recommend the fried calamari and Mac and cheese as appetizers. Both were very delicious. For drinks, I ordered the cold blooded margarita and loved it so much. I ordered the salmon eggs Benedict but found the hollandaise sauce to be a bit too salty. There was a mix up with my order so while everyone else received their meals I had to wait a while for my order to be corrected. I was disappointed with the portion size of the home fries as it was quite small and barely had any potatoes. My mom ordered the steak and eggs and she liked how perfectly seasoned the steak was. Overall, service could be better and I'm willing to give the food another chance. There is also both valet parking and street parking available.
