We benefited from her experience and good taste in guiding us through the menu. She ordered a caesar salad with grilled shrimp that looked divine! I love a good tuna melt and she said the Johnson had a good one- plain, but you can add whatever accoutrements you wish. I stuck with the classic and found it simple and satisfying She recommended one of the other salads (the asian salad) to my mom- with grilled chicken breast or shrimp. My mom's first job waitressing job in highschool was at a greek diner and upon discovering the Johnson Diner is greek, she had to try their Mousaka $21 served with a generous portion of greek salad. My mom enjoyed her Mousaka and said it had the perfect amt of cinnamon and spices- she ate the whole plate- she's usually a "take half home" eater- but said she wished she had ordered the salad as it looked fresh and light- and she felt full after the heavier Mousaka Maybe Mousaka for dinner, salads for lunch and brunch!

The menu was varied and large. My husband got the Chicken Pot pie special, I got the Chicken Shish Kebab. Both were delicious. Nicely done and seasoned. The diner has some outdoor seating but the majority of the tables are inside. Large TVs around the dining room allow for people to watch shows while dining. The prices were reasonable and the service and flavors were excellent. Definitely a recommended place in Riverdale.

Ambiance 10/10 When I first stepped foot into the…read morerestaurant, I instantly got this retro vibe. I just love the color of the seating and how comfortable the atmosphere was. Service: 10/10 The employees were very friendly. They were kind and had a nice smile on their face. That is what customers should be looking for when being approached by waiters or waitresses. They were very helpful with the menu option. Food: 10/10 I started with their hot chocolate with whipped cream. Man! It was delicious. The whipped cream, by the way, is optional. It does not automatically come with the hot chocolate. The texture was just right. I picked a good day to drink hot chocolate. I have also ordered their standard Belgian Waffles with a side of sausage. I have to admit, I was slightly disappointed with the quantity of the waffle. They only give you one. Additionally, you'd have to ask for the butter. Butter does not automatically come with the waffles. The syrup is or at least should already be on the table once you're seated. Even though I only got one waffle, it was delicious. Furthermore, you have the option to add whipped cream to the waffles. They will add the whipped cream to the waffles for you. The same can be applied to pancakes. When all is said and done, they will offer you a blow-pop lollipop. Overall 9.5/10 I will be back. I am unsure if they do reservations. It wouldn't be surprising if they did. Their menu options and pricing were reasonable.

George's is a Top Tier Bronx Diner. The only reason it doesn't get five stars it's because the…read moreambiance isn't "amazing"- again it's a diner in the Bronx. But the breakfast is delicious. They will essentially make whatever you want lol. They even have an iced coffee that's for you if you like more sugar in your coffee than coffee. I hope you're reading that as the compliment it's meant to be. And the staff is always nice. They are pretty attentive l, but they get so busy on weekends so you may have to wait a bit. Ultimately, I'm a George's loyalist. If you love Ellie's in ParkChester, it's only because you've never been here.

Kathy greeted me warmly with a smile and informed me I can sit wherever I'd like. I felt so welcomed. There were many seats at the breakfast bar and many tables available. I chose to sit at an empty two top table. The place is very spacious and well lit. Kathy took my order quickly and everything came out quickly, exactly as I ordered and it tasted delicious. I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich on a role with raw white onions and hot sauce. They did not skimp on the onions or chicken and I loved it so much. I will definitely be back to this place and I recommend anyone in the neighborhood looking for a delicious and affordable breakfast to come here ! See you again soon Kathy and Liberty Diner !

Our group had the breakfast burrito, the homemade granola with very delicious yogurt, the eye-popping (to the kid who ordered it) pancakes, the KFC, and the chicken katsu club.

However: we sat outside, on a warm Friday morning, and I swear to whoever decides these things that this was by far the most unpleasantly deafening dining experience I've ever had. Between the trains running immediately overhead and the constant fire trucks and ambulances blaring sirens just feet away...never again! There's great food all over this city in places where you don't have to scream at your table mates!

It looks like, and kind of feels like, a diner, but it's so much more. We were super excited to find Latin American cuisine favorites that we love and don't often find near home. I had a Cuban Medianoche sandwich that was served on absolutely excellent bread, with curly fries. My husband, the carnivore, ended up with some kind of multiple meat sandwich that came on the same amazing roll. (Before you think it's weird for me to rave about the ROLL, where we live in central PA, there is no good bread. Just saying!) I also had to get an order of tostones because I love them so much. They came with a garlic sauce that was intense and delicious. The service was friendly and attentive. I got the impression that this is a neighborhood joint with lots of regulars. There was lots of chatter and conversation among the people around us. Seriously, if you need food in the Bronx, this place is a great place to eat.
