Service is sometimes spotty - they forget to bring the little things such as brown sugar, hot sauce, etc but the food is DELICIOUS and consistent. I can confirm their Spanish omelette tastes great - not dry, good flavors, and on top of that it's very filling. Pancakes are a hit as well, especially with strawberry or apple preserves. Overall, I'd highly recommend eating here at any time of the day! read more

The food had no taste. Service was good. Ambiance was depressing. I will never go back there.

We just had, at Mitchell's, one of the best breakfasts ever! It looks really nice on the outside. I thought it was going to cost a lot. Then, I saw the menu and realized how reasonably priced they are! Server was extremely nice, informative, and took good care of our meal service. Lastly, the food was sooo delicious!! We had the Leo (Lox, Eggs, Onions) omelette. It was the real deal. Nom, Nom! And the home fries! Yum! I had the Challah French Toast with scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, and ham. Arguably the best I ever had! Family owned and operated for decades so if you're near the Green Acres Mall, Valley Stream, or in the quaint Village of Valley Stream area, head over for sone good eats! read more

Ive been going to Mitchell's my whole life. I'm 40 now. I've never seen it this dead as it is now. There's a few super good really nice waitresses (women) but the young man in the front that walks around is rude and interrupted our meal a couple of times to see if our waitress is doing OK. I'm all stressed that I've never once seen the restaurant this empty and it's been empty on a regular basis for the last month or so I'm about to stop going because there must be something going on. also the decor for the holidays which has always been super cute are sub par and so is the food. read more

food and service was top notch. place was clean including the bathrooms. me had plenty to choose from.

This place has changed drastically! I ordered a bacon and egg sandwich and the bacon was so hard I had to throw away my sandwich. I will no longer be coming here. Also nobody was around to sit me down at a table so I went myself as they were staring at me. read more

Me and my husband were looking forward to dining here. The place is nice looking, and the service and food were fantastic. Lovely experience. Thank you! read more

I like the new location of Mitchell's. I had the turkey burger with Greek salad lunch special. It came with soup. I had the matzah ball soup. It was very good. I loved the Greek salad. It was chopped and the salad was mixed nicely with the dressing. The meal was a nice deal. The server were friendly. I would recommend this new cozy diner. read more

Had breakfast while waiting for my car serviced for my Subaru next door. Was bit hesitated due to mixed reviews but was so close and didn't wanted to walk far as it was cold. Turned out that it was hit for me. Was promptly seated. Order was fairly quick and coffee was refilled quick. Staff was very friendly. Food was good and portion was generous enough to fill my big belly. Price was bit high side but considering the portion it was on par. I would come back for the next car service :) read more

My kids and i went here on Thanksgiving before heading to the black friday madness at Bestbuy. It was an emotionally draining day for us (first holiday season of my separation), but the food and the wait staff was pleasant. We had steak and eggs, steak quesadillas, and chicken tenders. And the "all around the world" desert. The food was very good. Not mind blowing. But definitely very good. We will definitely be back if in the area. read more

If you're afraid of getting COVID stay away from this place. ! A good portion of the staff, including the owner and his daughter do not wear mask. This behavior obviously encourages some of the staff not to wear their mask. To make matters worse the daughter gave us attitude for calling her out on it!!! The only positive thing was our waiter, he was great! read more

I was looking for a new diner to try out on the Island and came across Mitchell's since they were the only diner open at 8am on a Sunday morning. So I decided to give it a try, not knowing what to expect of this place. On the outside it seemed like a fancy restaurant and not a diner. As I made my way inside I got this cozy vibe. This is a very well maintained diner. The seats are well upholstered and very clean tables. We were greeted by a very friendly host and were seated promptly. On my first visit I ordered the eggs benedict- two poached eggs, canadian bacon, toasted english muffin, topped with hollandaise sauce with home fries $8.50. My second time around I ordered a Cheese Omelette $7.50 plus $1.00 for cheese plus .50 cent for onion and a side of home fries. The food was good on both occasions and friendly waitress. All-in all a good diner in the Valley Stream area. Free parking on early weekend just a block away. If hungry and close by I would stop in again. read more

Every neighborhood needs a good diner, and Valley Stream has Mitchell's. No, it is not ground breaking, earthshattering cuisine. But at 11AM when someone wants a stack of pancakes and someone else wants a hamburger and someone else wants a big salad, and you want it all to taste good... Mitchell's has got it. Family friendly and convientely located, Mitchell's is a regular stop for me and the fam. And what I love about them is, that unlike the Ihop's of the area, they handle the morning and after church rush exceptionally well. But beware, the picture on Yelp is old, they recently redid the entire place. A good local diner. read more

Got a chicken Soulvika platter. It was nothing like a chicken gyro because it doesn't have the shaved meat like normal places do. With diners I would stick to pancakes/breakfast food those things can never be made wrong. Otherwise I really like this place it's never too crowded and it's very clean read more

I just tried to place a take out order with this restaurant and received the worst service. The woman on the phone (I should've asked for her name) was very impatient and complained about not having time to take my order with the phone ringing off the hook. read more

We ordered chicken wraps and a burger for dinner tonight. The food was delicious and delivered quickly. The order was correct and the delivery person was pleasant. We will order again from this restaurant. read more

First time visiting this place, and it did not disappoint! Food was yummy, came out piping hot! Service was great, friendly and welcoming atmosphere! Great value also! I will definitely be back!! read more

Mitchell's is a great take-out option in Valley Stream. Their menu is huge, with many options for all eaters and their prices are reasonable for the generous portions. Their delivery service isn't the fastest, I would definitely recommend picking up any take-out orders. Dining in at Mitchell's has a great diner atmosphere with friendly staff. Fun place for a quick meal! read more

Ordered food for delivery. Waited 1 hour after being told it wouldn't take long. Came with dressing for salad and no condiments for sandwich. Arrived cold. Called and was given very poor excuses and no satisfaction. Paid good money. Will never oder or go back again. Ps This was the second time having a problem. read more

The food is always good, the tea and coffee are typically refilled and they give fast service!! Thanks

Continuing my recent theme of re-visiting places that my wife & I haven't visited in years, it was time to re visit this old diner that's been a Valley Stream staple for generations. On first glance it is clear they have renovated recently as the interior is one of the nicest looking diners I've seen. The food was a mixed bag. We went for breakfast and it didn't start off well. Our iced coffee was watered down and was sent back. The replacement was better. The Banana Pancakes were fragrant, large and quite tasty with nice caramelization and a crispy exterior. Challah French Toast was mediocre and tasted factory-fresh. Turkey sausage tasted hotdog like. The pancakes alone warrant another visit in the future. The staff were friendly and accommodating when we sent back the watery coffee. read more

Great dining experience overall. Community Eatery. Very fast delivery . Ordered Burgers no-one does it better!

I've been here twice with my godmother. It's a pretty good place. The last time I went we both had spinach pie, it was the best spinach pie I've eaten to date. The phylo dough was crispy, buttery and flaky in all the right amounts. They always have a waiter or bus boy circulating the place to refill your coffee. The salad with our spinach pie was unbelievably fresh. The place is kept clean. If you are around Valley Stream it's definitely worth the eats over here! read more

Family owned and run amazing dinner! The food is well prepared and exceptional! If I lived in the area I would be eating here a few times a week. I try and eat here whenever I am in the area. read more

I went on a Sunday around 11:30, found parking on the street close by and was seated immediately. I was impressed to realize that this restaurant has bee around since 1938. The restaurant was clean with an updated decor. They made my scrambled eggs with cheese just right and gave a generous portion of potatoes. Their menu offered variety. I will definitely return to this restaurant the next time I'm visiting the area. read more

I've been back since the renovation and the restaurant is much brighter! The place is popping and the food is still decent. The staff are all great and attentive. Best thing about Mitchell's now is that ice cream bar in the back. Lots of flavors and is reminiscent of those oldie ice cream parlor get ups. read more

Lovely diner, they've been in business for years, family owned & the foods excellent! For dinner I order the sea bass over rice and my husband gets the chicken cutlet panini. read more

I've come here a handful of times and can say it's a fantastic spot overall - one of my favourite diners by far. The staff are all very nice and efficient and the food is fantastic; I'd def recommend their omelettes and Belgian waffle. I'll without a doubt be coming back for a breakfast at midnight read more

Best breakfast joint! This place is so quaint and quiet. A lot of elders come here in the early morning so it is very peaceful and quiet. Breakfast is soooooo good! Two eggs and sausage with home fries, pancakes or waffles you won't be disappointed. To add, service is wonderful! read more

I'll give it three stars bcus his food was good. Ill come back to give them another chance. read more

Second time dining in , i must say this place is amazing. Breakfast was TREMENDOUSLY good and now day two LUNCH IS SOOOO GOOD! Thanks for amazing service ever time. Highly recommend read more

I ordered an omelette through seamless for lunch delivery. The order said it should arrive by 11:40 according to the app. When it was 12:10 I called the restaurant to check the status and a woman was very obnoxious on the phone and basically just said they were extremely busy so the order would be prepared soon. It was an omelette and they told me they didn't have the time to prepare it after over an hour. My office is down the block from the restaurant. After an hour and 20 min I had to cancel my order through seamless. Extremely disappointed read more

My wife and I just popped in this place for the first time and we were just amazed! The Cream of Turkey soup was amazingly good! Great service and delicious food!!! read more

After a lonnggg night, I woke up starving and my friend suggested we grab some breakfast at this place. It was pretty empty when we got here we were seated right away and the waitress took our orders right away. For my drink I ordered a lemonade which they say is freshly squeezed. It did taste fresh, I really liked it. For my entree I ordered a Belgian waffle with eggs, turkey bacon, turkey sausages and a side of wheat toasts and butter. Sounds like a lot of food but it sure didn't look like it when I received my food. I wish they served larger portions however everything did taste good. The waffle was the only thing that I thought could have tasted better. I was really enjoying my toast though, it was toasted well. It was warm and not burnt. There was also a good amount of butter. Will return in the future, the food was good and the service was good as well, a win-win read more

A friend and I went to Mitchell's on Rockaway Ave tonight. We were greated by a young woman who had a mask, but it did not cover her nose. Upon looking around, I looked into the small kitchen, the 2 cooks had masks that only covered their chins. Many of the other staff were. ot wearing the masks correctly. I mentioned it to the owner, he didnt seem aware if this. We left, abd chose another place to eat. read more

Lisa my waitress (at least I think that's her name). I've had her a few times and every time it's worse. She's short with us and rude. Doesn't know the menu and if forgetful. When she forgets or we ask for something she gets annoyed like it's our fault. Also we were able to overhear a conversation she was having with another female waitress and she was really harsh and rude. Someone should address this. Once is ok. People have bad days. But several times. Not ok. We've had other servers. They were amazing. read more

actually a minus one - I ordered a gyro with Greek salad and a brisket sandwich with macaroni salad this is what I got - read more

A typical diner. What do you expect? I only know about Mitchell's because when I was in high school, I was in a club that would ALWAYS come here as a tradition after every show. I enjoy the quesadillas and burgers. Oh! And the ice cream. I have tried some of their sandwiches which were alright. The burgers are like 7$-10$ and some come with fries and sides, etc etc. The prices are really reasonable and the portions are ok. I always tried to play safe when ordering food here. It's an alright place.. There's so many other places in the area to eat.. This place is just one of those decent ones on Rockaway. read more

Mitchell's was a frequent dining spot for me back when I lived on Long Island, and even now I try to return any time I'm back in the area. The food is consistently solid, service is friendly, and there is a certain classiness following their renovation a couple years ago that makes it feel nicer than ever. I'll admit that I have a love for diners in general, because I'm immediately happy with anyplace that I allows me to an omelet and toasted toast at all hours of the day. However, at Mitchell's I've often branched out to other, more elaborate dishes and have never been disappointed. The salmon dinner I had at my last visit was especially fresh and flavorful. I've been to lots of diners in my days in LI, but to me this one just feels a bit better, and a bit more like home to me. While some may be intimidated about the many options, one of my favorite things about Mitchell's is that the menu is SO BG! Fellow yelping buddy Harold and I have counted at least 67 different items we'd like to try. So will I be back? Roger that! Maybe even this Sunday to catch some of the 49er game on one of their many HD TVs. Overall, I would recommend Mitchell's to anyone for a nice, casual meal in a warm, friendly environment whether you're in the mood for Breakfast, Lunch, or Dina. read more
