Entire order was poorly prepared. Food was inedible and had to be disposed. I wasn't expecting to put together a $15 bagel using stale ingredients that were stuffed into a container. The pancakes were rubbery and difficult to cut with a knife. Disappointing. read more

This is the absolute best diner in all of Westchester County! The service in management is top-notch!! They produce and atmosphere of feeling homey and warm. Their menu is extensive and priced perfectly - not to high not too low. The quality of the food is impeccable for a diner. Boo hoo on an occasional screw up! We live in an imperfect world! There is so much good to this place that far surpasses the bad!! 5 Stars on every level!!!!! Would strongly recommend and absolutely return. read more

Found this gem on the way out of the city. Perfect patty melt, great coffee. Service like your mom would give you. Love it. Will come back!

a better then decent diner in yonkers on tuckahoe rd that was once my sunday morning breakfast spot when it was friendlys . the grassy sprain diner which took over is in my opinion just as good or better serving typical greek american style , breakfast, lunch , dinner . my visit was for breakfast only at 830am with a menu thats typical for diners , pancakes, waffles, eggs. bacon, sausages, oatmeal, homefries , etc. some egg whites with turkey sausages and whole wheat toast is a good safe bet and it sure was.i cant comment on lunch but burgers. fries , soups, greek salads, sandwiches, gyros, .meatloaf, and turkey platters to name a few. overall grassy sprain diner is a place i will visit again and the bland outdated friendlys decor has been updated cool retro diner style .4 stars on my yelp meter and now i am in the mood for a gyro platter and slice of blueberry pie. read more

I like this place so much I came back a second time in a week however this time was little disappointed. I sat for 15 minutes before someone took him to order in the place was not busy at all.The food was good as usual but I ordered a diet Coke and when I finish that she asked if I wanted a second when I got my bill I was charged for two normally diners in this area give you unlimited fountain soda I should have been told that II soda was not free. I feel a little ripped off read more

I order from his diner through Uber eats. I order pancakes with bacon and a turkey burger deluxe. The bacon wasn't cooked and the turkey burger was dry it was supposed to come with coleslaw n pickles and it did not. there was no condiments in the bag. I called the diner and the lady said if you don't Check off the box they don't include anything. I called back and spoke with a gentleman and he apologize and offered to replace the order or refund my money. I opted for the refund. that was three weeks ago and I still haven't received a refund. Food was bad, service was bad. I will never order from there again. Don't waste your time or money!! read more

$17 for iceberg lettuce salad. I ordered a Greek salad with the chicken upgrade. Additional grilled chicken was charged at six dollars for one chicken breast. When I got home and open the salad, I realize it was all iceberg lettuce and did not contain any of the anchovies that were advertised in the food description. No peppercinni, no side of pita. Also salad dressing was low budget pre-packaged and Greek dressing was not an option. I have eaten salsa in Four star Manhattan restaurants that cost less and were fat better prepared. Need a Greek salad? Head to lefteris! This has been edited to include the fact that there was a random sausage in my salad ! OMFG . read more

I walked in on Memorial Day morning trying to order and BLT and a lemonade to drink. When I finish ordering with the older lady I noticed she was getting ready to serve my drink. I stated to her can you please make my drink when my sandwich is done. She said well I'm going to be busy and I won't be able to make your drink then. So I told her I don't want my drink watered down so please make it when my food is done. She gave me an attitude, printed the receipt form the register and there the receipt at me. I told her why are you being so rude and I would like to speak to your manager. She stated im the manager for the moment. So I told her cancel my preset and I walked out of there highly upset!!! Check your camera. This incident happened around 9-10 am. read more

We ordered breakfast food via Uber Eats. I ordered a belgian waffle with a side of bacon. The food was on it's way in a reasonable amount of time. The food was still hot when i got it. The waffle was what i would have expected from a diner; a nice sized large waffle. The bacon came with 5 slices and was very good. The only thing missing was the butter. Plenty of syrup but no butter. It was still tasty. read more

I wanted to like this place. The vibe is right up my alley. Unfortunately I found not 1, not 2, but 3 hairs in my chicken avocado club. I sent it back and the waiter was apologetic. I got a new sandwich and carefully inspected it. Seemed OK but I still was hesitant to eat it. When we went to pay the bill up front I assume one of the owners checked us out and asked how everything was. We told him there were 3 hairs in my food. He moderately apologized and said thanks for letting him know. No discount, no real sympathy. To the kitchen staff - WEAR A HAIRNET! read more

I've been coming to this spot since long before it was the Grassy Sprain Diner (it was a Friendly's last). This is the best I've ever known it to be. Great service, delicious food, nice staff. Their soups are a particular favorite of mine. I don't think I've ever had a bad experience with this diner. Always good. read more

What a welcome establishment in this area! I have had 4 fabulous breakfasts here and two lunches. The Coffee is great. Very good bacon. Crisp. Real blueberries in the pancakes. The bbq chicken cheddar and bacon deluxe is great. Excellent strudel, crumb cake and Greek pastries. Everyone is very nice. Hope they stay open later in the summer. read more

Great place! I come there quite often. They are true compatriots and always treat me with courtesy and respect. The food is top notch! This is the ONLY Diner around these days where you can find a Greek Antipasto! Its abundant as well as delicious ---- if you're not careful and eat too much of it -- you will have to order up a Sprite. But NOT their fault! Greek Food is very rich. I get very comfortable vibes when I come here. read more

Their customer service is disgusting and the manager is just as disgusting. I ordered via Uber eats and this restaurant screwed up my order on 2 occasions. The first time I ordered they sent my meal but my drink was missing. Today I ordered a chicken salad and they sent me a chicken sandwich. They claimed that their system was showing that I ordered a chicken sandwich. Yet, my copy of the receipt shows that I selected a chicken salad. I didn't touch the sandwich and asked for my correct order to be sent to me. The first time I ordered from them, they called Uber to have a driver bring me my drink. It was their kind gesture that made me reorder. This time the manager was rude, kept cutting me off while I was trying to speak and hung up on me. read more

It's not The Ritz or Russian Tea Room, but what their kitchen sends out is good, honest food. If you have food sensitivities,they will make sure there's nothing in your meal that will hit your allergies. What would I recommend? The Thanksgiving Wrap, their Club Sandwiches, Hot Open Turkey Sandwich, and their legendary Goulash. And this place won't broke , their prices are great. They deliver, too. So, if Mom's had a bad day or everyone is down with the latest virus bug, or if you are staying at one of the near by motor inns, pick up the phone and order. read more

I ordered a large order at 5:30pm for delivery, I paid for it and included at nice 15% tip. They told me the order should be delivered by 6:45pm. I thought wonderful. At 7:15pm we called to say we have not received the order yet. They said the driver had a lot of deliveries and they would try to reach him. At 7:35pm we received a phone call from Grassy Sprain Diner stating they made a mistake and NEVER PUT OUR ORDER THROUGH. They said they could remake it now and deliver it in about 45 minutes, almost THREE HOURS LATER from the original order! No thank you Grassy Sprain Diner. Get your act together or you will be losing a lot of customers. read more

I bought a piece of their baklava and discovered a piece of sharp thick dark metal inside of THE LAST BITE! It almost chipped my tooth. It's too bad because the baklava itself was good. But I guess too much of a good thing CAN kill you if there are metal shards inside of it! I hope this was the only piece and that I didn't swallow any others. I'm even more worried now that I tapped it with a spoon and a smaller fragment came off it. I'm wondering what it's doing to my intestines and about how many other customers ate their baklava or may be eating it at this moment. This needs to be dealt with as soon as possible. Why didn't I marry someone in legal field? I fear I'm going to need a doctor first. Already feeling unwell. read more

We came to this diner because you see it on News 12 voted as the "Best Diner in Westchester", not sure how or why they won this title. First I will say our waitress was nice, but way too loud, and not attentive at all. You see your table barely touched their food but you do not ask why? Maybe because this is a common thing here. So many reasons as to why we will not visit this diner again nor recommend anyone: Utensils had left over dried residue of food, cups were dirty with things floating in ice and syrup stains down the sides. When I asked the waitress to get me another spoon due to the one being filthy she again did not seem surprised. The bathroom is horrendous, the faucet is practically hanging on by a thread, the toilet paper holder fell on my leg while I was helping my child in the stall, and along side the walls looked like pieces of mouse poop. The food: I ordered a chicken cordon blue panini, which stated on the menu "chicken cutlet, ham, Swiss cheese, on a European ciabatta. What came on my plate were severely over cooked frozen pieces of chicken fingers (I am guessing what this was because there was barely any chicken inside and it looked gray in color), a pathetic little piece of ham, on a "extra buttery" piece of ciabatta. The french fries appeared as if they were once frozen, cooked, served, and when that person did not eat them they heated them again and served to another customer. Not fresh at all, stale, and a customer can easily tell they were cooked more than once. My child's mac n cheese had black things floating in the pasta, yes could of been from the burnt cheese, but No, when carefully examined it looked as if it came off the sides of the little metal pot they serve the pasta in. She loves mac and cheese and wouldn't touch theirs. So for almost 50$ and to leave completely disgusted, nauseous feeling, and just beyond skeeved out, it is safe to say that this is not an establishment I would ever visit again. Nor should people who know what real food is. (Seems as if many others have had similar experiences). read more

Food was honestly disgusting not sure how people love this diner I couldn't even finish eating the chicken chipotle wrap and the pickle they sent in the bag taste spoiled . I will definitely not order from this establishment again read more

Really tasty new diner in the old Friendly's location on Tuckahoe Rd. I've been waiting to try this place for a while now and they finally opened. I stopped in for breakfast and it was delicious. It's set up pretty much the same as the Friendly's, but much cleaner. The service is very attentive and like any good diner, the food comes quickly. I decided on the Italian omelette, which is filled with sausage, mozzarella and tomatoes. It came with home fries and toast. The omelette was great, the sausage was delicious and it all fell into place wonderfully. The home fries were great, they had the thin slices of potato that kind of melt in your mouth. I'm really looking forward to going back soon. The food was great and the place itself is really nice. read more

So, we were out shopping today and decided to stop here for a bite before heading home. We settled on trying out this spot, instead of going to our go-to diners. We figured we'd give it a try since it is pretty close to where we live. Well, we should have gone with any other diner in the area. First i'll start with the sort-of good. The wait staff is courteous, but seem ill-prepared to handle much of anything in the way of a problem. Our waitress was sweet, attentive and perfectly polite, but seemed frazzled (odd since the place wasn't busy when we went in). It might have had something to do with the fact that she wrote down everything we ordered long-hand, repeating it back under her breath as she wrote it. Frankly, it was a touch awkward and the entire ordering process took a good five minutes. The diner itself is clean, homey-feeling and comfortable, although the heat was on so high I wasn't sure if I should be eating dinner or practicing Bikram yoga. Now for the not good. The food was mediocre, and that is being generous. My boyfriend got a soup that had bones in it, so we sent that back. They were out of the soup I had ordered. The boneless wings were acceptable, but the ranch dressing they offered with it tasted odd. Definitely not a dipping ranch. He had a panini that was pretty tasteless. It wasn't good, it wasn't bad.. It just was. My thanksgiving wrap could have been good, but it tasted like they added curry or cumin to the stuffing. It was just a very odd combo. My mom had dined with us, and she said her soup (cream of mushroom) was fine, as was her Cobb salad (kind of hard to screw that up). There was nothing particularly great about it, but it was edible. When it came time to pay they left both my soup (which they didn't have anymore of) and my boyfriend's soup (which he sent back) on the receipt. Took a few minutes to sort that out. While it was sorted out eventually, it was a mistake that shouldn't have happened. This diner also doesn't offer free refills on soft drinks. That's not something I have ever experienced in a diner. We found it kind of strange. We left and within 20 minutes my boyfriend and I both needed to find a restroom, immediately. I don't have a delicate stomach by any stretch of the imagination, and I've never felt so sick after a meal out before. The feeling lasted for the entirety of the night. So, we paid $60 to feel like little bombs were exploding inside our stomachs. Not pleasant. We won't be back. It really is a shame because the place is conveniently located, well decorated and has a staff that is well-meaning, even if they aren't particularly well-trained. The food is just not good. Oh well. We will be sticking to Seven Brothers Diner or Central Plaza Diner from now on. Both are miles better than this place even though they don't have that fresh, new novelty to them. read more

Here with my boyfriend Angel eating lunch. I had the Gyro and he had the Reuben. I must say that I was amazed. I loved my sandwich ate all of it fast. My boyfriend said his Reuben was on point.

We decided to try this Diner on a snowy day. It was either this one or McLean Diner and I wish I would have chosen the other. There is nothing magical or special about this place. And in my opinion not the best breakfast in Yonkers. Broken mirrors fixed with clear tape...smh. Food wasn't as hot as we would have liked it to be when coming from the kitchen. I feel as if I should always see some steam coming from my food because it's so freshly made. Syrup for the pancakes was packaged. Honey for my tea was packaged. And I didn't see anyone from the kitchen staff wearing a hair net or hat. Hope y'all enjoy this Diner better than we did read more

From the moment you walk into Grassy Sprain Diner the customer service has been extraordinary in relevance to the food, service, delivery timing, help with anything needed! Management is always on the floor willing to exceed the limitations in the diner experience that anyone in Westchester has ever sucum too.

EXCELLENT FOOD DRINKS DESSERTS & SERVICE WILL NEVER CHANGE AT THIS WONDERFUL LOCATION IN THE CENTER OF YONKERS....Delivery is also great either in house or through uber or grub hub which I have experience from every way delivery is possible.

This place is too political and the bad reviews about this diner and the bad reviews about the owners other place Perista Restaurant in the Bronx, says it all. This diner does not deserve the Best of Yonkers from the Chamber of Commerce! It's just not true! The Chamber of Commerce just gives them a sign to put outside their building and free press, but the truth is, they give that sign to every business, diner, etc. that joins their club. It says nothing it means nothing to the people of Yonkers. It's misleading. What means something are all the Bad reviews these owners get about their restaurants. That tells the public the truth about customers experience. Here is just one of many Bad Reviews! Terrible service, long wait for our food, waiter had high strung mental issues and started screaming at a family yelling that he had six tables and threw their soup on the counter and yelled get another waiter. All the customers gasped. All they did was ask the waiter where is there bowl of soup? The waiter snapped aggressively throwing the hot soup on the counter! Never again will we go to the Grassy Sprain Diner, it's radical, it's like One Flew Over the Goo Goo's Nest!!! Do you want people like this touching your food or serving your children? Absolutely Not! The owner stepped out while the waiter went on a violent rampage attacking his regular customers throwing extremely hot soup on the counter. He's lucky when that soup splashed out that it didn't burn anyone. The customers walked out and so did we. Monday, September 18, 2017 read more

Been here a few times and never disappointed. The staff is friendly and attentive and the coffee is good. After reading some of the other reviews, I can see that some people have not had the same experience as I have but I question their expectations. It's a diner, not a 4 star restaurant. The food is good, solid service and friendly, clean atmosphere. I don't dream about food in general, and this isn't going to make me start but I have left Grassy Sprain Diner satisfied and nourished. As well, I have never left wishing I didn't go... unlike Mont Olympus diner on central ave. These people at least try to treat you well and give you good food. read more
