    Double Grilled Cheese Monsterburger with Onion Rings

    The food was really good. The traditional American food suited the environment well. This diner has a retro feel featuring many vintage clocks and airbrush wall art. The service was great as well. The only thing that was off was the onion rings. Didn't have much of an onion. I recommend the tots! Will be coming back.

    Ham n chz omelete. Yum

    Yes we eat out a lot and this place is really good. First timers! Our waitress was a cute blonde and the food realllly delish. We just stopped in on a fluke headed to the chiropractor( killing time). Bf ordered the Hawaiian omelete. A pineapple in every bite! He loved it. And my taster bite was great! Love their home fries with grilled onions. We showed up at 8:30-9 and then after 9 this place is FULL!! Lots of workers having a quick breakfast before work. But we noticed all young good looking girls in here as waitresses hehe. I chose the ham n chz omelete and yummy good. Ham in every bite as well. Good flavors and the coffee never empty! I think we will try to come back if we r passing thru. Plenty BT parking around back for our big truck too.

    Painted on the door of the men's room.  Mike wuz here?  Damned right he wuz, and he enjoyed his food.

    So...you say that you want food that doesn't suck, and you only have 1/2 hour for lunch or breakfast? This is where you come. So far, I've never had a bad meal at the Monroe Street Diner. MSD has great hours. If you work for a living and aren't allowed to mosey your ass in at 9 am, know that MSD opens at 0600. Eat here and get to work by 7...easily. Work nights? Come in after work. The menu is reasonably extensive and reasonably creative, for a diner. The stars of the show, IMHFO, are the burgers. Hand pattied and cooked (correctly, every time) to order, they're great. Check out some of the pix for some ideas. Check out the daily specials, too. My favorite breakfast option is the BPOP...the Big Plate Of Protein...that is, the omelette. There's an omelette for every taste. I like the Philly cheese steak omelette. Sides? Get the potatoes, or skip them and get tomato slices. Get the toast, or skip it and ask for a side of cottage cheese. MSD is flexible, and the friendly waitresses are very accommodating. I'd call the atmosphere "retro inspired," rather than authentically retro. In terms of cleanliness, I wouldn't eat off of the bathroom floor, but the joint is clean...or at least it doesn't feel dirty. MSD is located in a building that originally housed a Mister Donut; it was built in the 50s or 60s...the owner should remove the front awning and show off that beautiful Mid-century Modern architecture...there's your authentic retro! In short, Monroe Street Diner isn't the most elegant eatery in this town, but I've never walked away hungry or dissatisfied.

    Due to their prime location, the Monroe St Diner draws from all walks of life and offers some great people watching opportunities. Hung-over? Try the Monroe Street Omelette, and make sure to get "everything" on your homefries. Today it included peppers, onions and brown gravy. Awesome.

    After my first visit and observation I'm reminded of Cheers "Where everyone knows your name" - your…read moregreeted warmly, treated like your family, handled with care. This truly a wonderful experience for all ages and varying tastes. A tremendous and welcome change we've come to endure from other dining experiences. Here the customer is THE primary focus from the moment you walk in til you walk out the door - BRAVO!! The food, had the Mayberry Mega where you pick your 6 omelette ingredients. Normally a crap shoot in most diners but here it was a home run. The ham and sausage were nice size chunks, juicy, and full of flavor. Spinach, onions, and tomatoes were fresh and perfect sizes and good quantities for the dish. That leaves the cheese my one "ding" would have preferred shredded cheese vs sliced cheese because of flavor and texture - but it didn't take away from a wonderfully prepared omelette made and severed with genuine care. Potatoes were frozen BUT they were prepared exceptionally well for dinner dare they were soft and cooked with a nice crisp. It was a superb surprise and a very welcome one. The coffee was fresh and hot and the standard "acidic" coffees you'd find in most diners anywhere, but overall inviting enough to have a few cups for a discerning coffee "snob" like me. Place was PACKED so all tables and booth were full, but they have a nice counter service with plenty of seating and space to move and eat and be very comfortable for your meal. What's fascinating is the incredible teamwork and collective desire to ensure your time, experience, and meal are spent enjoying your company and food not staring at your watch wondering about time. The entire restaurant was seated, served, and cleared with clean tables within the time I had to get and consume my own breakfast. So if you see a packed house on your arrival and don't desire that counter seat fear not - in this home environment your wait will be short and your day will lose no valuable time - well worth some minimal patience - you'll be glad you did. Your greeted as soon as you walk in by one or more of the extremely hardworking waitresses with a smile - your also sent off with a "Thank you. have a Good Day" by one more waitresses as you leave - both excellent touch of service class enhancing customer experience. I've never seen a more well-run diner or any restaurant from the waitresses to the cooks to the dishwashers the teamwork, attention to details, customer satisfaction, and to the incredible cleanliness of the restaurant despite the constant flow of customers - I've never seen a restaurant so clean and kept so clean the out the day. So what are you waiting for come to Mayberry where a warm greeting, clean home, exceptional food are calling YOUR name today...I'm returning perhaps I'll see you there....Bon Appetite!!

    Good diner experience. The service was excellent, with quick service and lots of coffee refills…read more The food was basically what we expected. The egg white veggie wrap was nicely portioned without being over the top; a little mustard and hot sauce was required to complete the profile, but that's fine. The veggie omelette was good, with a big portion of hash browns and a decent quantity of veggies in the omelette. Hot sauce and mustard were also our friend here, but that works for me. The staff were very friendly and attentive, even beyond what we would have expected. All told, this was an excellent experience if you're looking for a fast paced diner breakfast.
