Great location! Love the decor but the food left a lot to be desired. Based off a TikTok review we visited but unfortunately we were disappointed. It was busy but we were seated fairly quickly. Our waitress was so engrossed in what was going on with other employees, we had to repeat our order several times and there were only 2 of us. The food lacked seasoning and flavor and was presented cold to.lukw warm at best. read more

If you need a overstimulating decor restaurant, this might be your place. Twice we made a comment that we were "forgotten" about with zero drink refills and no check in mid meal. The food came out fast but wasn't anything special. Neither of us finished our meals and left disappointed. The prices were affordable, so that made it not as painful. read more

Imagine stepping off Main Street Smalltown and somehow landing in the middle of a love letter to New York City. The diner's booths are cozy vinyl classics, but every inch of wall space is plastered with Time Square posters, yellow taxi figurines, and souvenir Statue of Liberties. It's like someone raided every gift shop in Times Square, tossed it all into a blender, and poured it over a classic small-town greasy spoon. The coffee's bottomless, the breakfast comes with a side of gossip, and your view is equal parts pancake stack and Empire State Building snow globe. I would recommend the breakfast where the pancake breakfast is less an event and more a ritual. The stacks of golden pancakes share the plate with sausage links that taste like they've been holding down the fort since forever, and the coffee--always hot, always refilled before you can ask--runs like traffic on a green light. It's the kind of breakfast where the comfort is in its predictability: simple, sturdy, and endlessly caffeinated, like the city itself. Worth the trip: big stacks, small town, and enough New York souvenirs to stock Times Square. Cheers! read more

I had breakfast here with a friend on a Saturday morning. We were seated right away. It stayed pretty busy up until around noon and the crowd started to fizzle, but remained steady. I ordered banana pancakes and loved that they were cooked in the batter and not just on top. I also had a side of bacon. It's a really nice sized diner with lots of booths and tables. The service is pretty great. They are very attentive and your food comes out pretty quickly. read more

My experience there was horrible. Our server was a man with a high ponytail and bad service. He rushed us over to the table and brought us drinks and never came back to us. When I tried to get his attention, he looked at me, rolled his eyes and walked away to continue talking to another server. They both looked at us and walked away. I left a 10 on the table for my mom and I beverage and left to never return. Would never recommend this to anyone. read more

This place is such a funky spot. I love it. Yes, diner food but also TexMex style food. We've been for breakfast and enjoyed our meals. This most recent time, we both got the traditional Breakfast Special but I've also had their tacos and found them to be delicious. Good coffee and great service - truly, the people that work there are so nice, you can tell they enjoy working together, and they get the food out fast. Can't wait for the next time we can come back. read more

I had the avocado omelette. Everything was fresh and delicious. I love the decor and the food was served quickly and with a smile.

Awful done with this place. Been here dozens of time it is now got to the 1 star level. Placed a simple breakfast order I got barely cooked eggs, cold toast and coffee. They never once checked on me or refilled my cup even after sking for someone to come by. Then after I got ky check and about to leave they offer me decaf. When I asked where was our waiter they got angry. Never going back. Don't tip if service sucks don't complain eithrr, theh dont care. I guess the NY in NY Diner fits. read more

Omelette and potatoes were great. Service was adequate, atmosphere was nice too. I will go back; nice family vibe.

One of the best burgers I've had in a while. The beef was flavorful and cooked just right, and the toppings were fresh and generous. The bun was toasted just enough to give it a nice texture. The portion was perfect, and the overall meal was super satisfying. read more

https://popl.co/card/a28lD5o4/3/s The service was absolutely amazing. The staff were polite, attentive and helpful in service. I ordered the Rubén and I am used to getting Rubens in New York City now I didn't expect to have a New York City Rubén. That being said, I was disappointed a Rubén needs to be salty, sweet sour Hardy and slightly bitter. The kitchen needs to order a different sauerkraut that is more sour. They should have a homemade thousand island sauce corn beef was very, very good but very little of it. I did not get the spiciness and bitterness of the pepper in the Rubén. I suggest that they may pepper and slightly salt the sandwich. I give this a two out of five. read more

Service was pretty good. Food arrived quickly and tasted good. The restaurant was quiet. Lastly, the price wasn't that high. All around good experience. Italian omelette with potatoes and toast with hot tea for $15. read more

Pancakes are very vanilla-e and falls apart Service sucked she only came & got out drink order after that another guy took our order & the same guy brung out the food. Really confused on who was our server or who to tip. After we got our food no one came to the table for a while , had to flag someone down to get more syrup. No refills , not being checked up on & had to wait 15 minutes after eating my food for my check . read more

Early morning breakfast available at reasonable price. Coffee was good! Home fries, eggs, crispy bacon And French toast were all delicious. Service was quick and courteous. Restaurant is super cute with all the NY decorations. Surprisingly clean for all the knickknacks they have to keep up with dusting. read more

Whew, what self respecting New Yorker could resist a diner, tucked away in Raleigh North Carolina with the banner of New York Diner upon it. As it was Sunday morning, there was a wait as there were ten in our group, but the management went thru extraordinary lengths to seat all of us close together. A glance at the menu and my eyes settled upon a western omelet complete with a side of buttermilk pancakes, just show that there was a country side of me also. The food was plentiful ans most filling, much like many of the NYC diners I've visited, just with a southern flair. A go to spot from now on when I'm in the Raleigh area. 5 stars... No photos to add as I greedily ate it all before thinking about photographing read more

The waiter was attentive and friendly. I liked the New York decorations. The food was good.

Ate here last night for the second time, and everything was amazing, just like our previous experience. Food is delicious, served fast and hot and the staff was super friendly and welcoming! It's decorated with cool little trinkets and lots of NYC backgrounds/murals. We really enjoyed it and will definitely be back! read more

As a New Yorker, I love to try the so called NY places to check if they are legit or fake. The service was excellent, attentive and courteous. The chicken parm on a wrap was fantastic, perfectly made and flavored just right. Unfortunately, the burger was horrible to me. It looked like it came from a frozen pattie, no taste at all, very bland. Was it a one time occurrence? I will never know as I am here in the area for only a few more days. read more

Great service, good food and a good time. We tried a Sunday breakfast-- eggs were cooked perfectly, coffee was good and rest of food was plentiful, well prepared.... and inexpensive. By 10:00 the line had started for brunch. They are serious about wearing a mask-- plenty of notices that your nose should be covered. Rest of menu looked good. We will be back! read more

New York Diner - Dining room and entrance. - Diners Near Me - Knightdale, North Carolina

We came here for a Saturday morning breakfast. We LOVE diner type places and thought to give this place a try. Based on the food and such... I am okay not coming back here. It just seems like that they are trying to do too much. Breakfast menu, burger and fries menu, Mexican menu, and Italian menu. Just pick something and make it amazing. Food: Pancakes are decent but you can tell they are packed with extra sugar so becareful with syrup. Breakfast ham is literally lunch meat heated on a grill. It was actually really gross. Service: Service was the only redeeming quality. They have a nice staff Atmosphere: everything felt like it was a shade of orange. Ceiling lights as flickered to the point it became uncomfortable to the eyes. Pricing: over priced for meh diner food. Definitely not worth the price we paid for the breakfast food we got. Maybe if we were to come and get something from their Mexican menu it would be better. If you are on the fence about eating here for breakfast... go somewhere else. Side note: I can actually still smell the grease they use to cook in my hair after we left... I didn't order or eat anything fried. read more

As promised, delivers on the NY Diner experience - in terms of atmosphere and extensive breakfast and lunch menus that are available at any time during business hours. We had breakfast during breakfast hours. Our food was tasty and in a medium-sized portion - I easily finished my pancakes and ham. The omelette was also good, though a bit light on vegetable content. Home fries were on the softer side, which we liked. Service was prompt and attentive, and I think there were four different people who came to our table during the meal. read more

Welcoming staff and great experience every time! One of the best local dinners in Knightdale

The food was great for a great price! Very clean restaurant with excellent service! It was kid and retiree friendly.

$11 for what??? Who makes an omelet and cheese is not included. Food was bland and definitely not fresh. Also was charged a $0.43 fee for using my card and wasn't informed beforehand read more

It was interesting. When you walk in it really feels like more of a fusion type place as the smell and feel is similar to a Mexican restaurant. We came for breakfast. Food wasn't bad, but syrup came in packets rather than on table. Service wasn't great but it may have been just the waiter. Nothing special but not awful either. read more

The worst customer service I have ever experienced. I had a party of 6 for breakfast. One person in our party is a veteran who lost his leg and requires a wheelchair. They seated us at a table for 4 next to the bathroom. When I asked if we could move to the larger empty table, the answer was NO! That table is for 8 only! The restaurant was 2/3 empty and nobody was waiting and plenty of seats. I asked one more time nicely and he said NO again. When I told him we couldn't fit and needed the bigger table, otherwise we would need to go somewhere else. He said fine, just leave! He then proceeded to argue with us all the way out the door saying it's the rules and too bad! I have personally recommended this place to at least 50 people but never again will they see a single one of us. I give them a big fat Zero rating. read more

once again perfect restaurant and atmosphere, amazing food and amazing service every time.

You can literally order anything here. The menu is huge so have an idea what you want before you go. Great for people wanting different things. read more

First visit, for breakfast. This place is pretty small, so you can probably expect a little wait! That being said, we got in with no problem, and were brought drinks pretty quickly. The coffee cups are fairly small, so you'll be looking for more refills than usual. Not much of a wait for food. I had the breakfast special, with eggs, bacon, sausage, hash browns and pancakes. Everything was pretty good. Would like to see the bacon come out a little crisper, but no biggie. Overall, we'd come back to this place! read more

New York Diner - Breakfast combo. - Diners Near Me - Knightdale, North Carolina

Definitely a family restaurant. The father once ran things. Since he's been gone the service and quality has suffered Tremendously. We got into with one waiter because him and I was in the restroom at the same time and he went directly back to serving after taking a dump. M(did not Ladd go and did not wash his hands). The staff serves AA differently than everyone else. read more

Just a short update Sandwich time! I really enjoy their club sandwiches here. Place is always spotless, the grease for the fries always changed. Why would anyone waste their time on 64 at the chains when they can support local, get better food, at the same price. Great little spot. Across the side street by the Walmart. read more

Don't know what happened to the rest of the menu online. I haven't been there in awhile - new owners, new menu. I am giving it five stars for their Reuben sandwich. I am from up North and I have to say that this is the very best. Other people with me had great dinners. Is the Reuben still on the menu? Also want to mention I used to bring my parents here and they loved it. read more

We've been eating here almost every Sunday after church, and I really enjoy it for the most part. My husband humors me by going with me, he's not as impressed. Today something happened that has me questioning future visits. We went in and they wouldn't give us a booth because there are two of us. There were other booths with just two people, but I guess we were somehow different. They had an open booth but said they were too busy to let us have it. I won't sit on the hard chairs, but they do have one little two person booth that we were sat in. But it felt very unwelcoming for them to say they wouldn't seat us in an open booth. Oh, and when we left, there were 3 open booths. So much for being too busy to let us have a booth. As my husband says, they are very inconsistent. The food quality varies from visit to visit, the friendliness of the staff varies (though there is generally a language barrier to overcome no matter what - which can be annoying when you're trying to convey your order), and now the rules of being seated vary. We've always gotten a booth in the past, and at times when they were much busier than they were today. Maybe we'll just go to iHop next Sunday. read more
