Cool little place for a late night stop. You can dine in however you order at the counter. The girl working the counter was very nice and helpful. I had the chicken sandwich with owl fries. Average at best. The fries have what they call beef however it's seems to be little balls of sausage. I'm. not sure it was worth the $4 upgrade. The flat bread pizza was solid. Not to big. The table next to us had waffles... they looked delicious. With options being slim for late night food this place is a good option. read more

Night Owl Diner - Diners Near Me - Toledo, Ohio

I had the Hot honey chicken and Waffles and the Loaded fries, wasn't too shabby, The waffles are bomb, and the chicken was tender. It was a dine in which I came into do. Majority of the costumers didn't dine in, And I think the reasoning is the inside of it we are not giving it's full attention too. I think this place has potential. read more

Love the concept but wasn't impressed. $25 for basically chicken and fries seems outlandish. A friend got the burger and said he would've rather had a McDouble. My other friend swore by the chicken and waffles tho!! Food was definitely fresh but for the crowd of people and price not worth it in my opinion. (Waitress was so sweet tho). read more

It's 3 in the morning, and for whatever reason, YOU ARE HUNGRY! Despair not! Keep calm and simply follow this 12 step program: 1. Walk into Night Owl Diner, located at Sylvania and Secor. 2. Mosey on up to the counter. 3. Check out the menu. 4. Give your order to the friendly counter attendant. 5. Pay for your meal. 6. Take a seat. 7. Wait for a short time. 8. Notice the waitress sauntering over to bring you your food. 9. Eat a terrific meal. 10. Finish at your own pace, perhaps getting a refill, or two, of your coffee or pop. 11. Tip the waitress who has been checking on you the whole time. 12. Say, as you're walking out, "Have a good night. I'll be back." There you go. You're no longer hungry. Problem solved. Notice that because you paid in advance, after you've finished eating, you don't have to sit around waiting for your check and possibly your plastic. Although not everyone likes this service model, I personally do. If I'm being honest, SO FAR the food has rated about 4 stars, BUT... Allyson the waitress (cool, friendly), the concept (all-night diner in the heart of the Toledo metro area), and the atmosphere (comfortable with demure lighting) combine to give Night Owl Diner a fifth star. I would also say that Night Owl is on the expensive side. But, hey that's the price you pay for the convince of getting a good meal at 3 am! FIVE STARS! read more

So the second time we went they no longer have table service. Sad. Really thought this place could be the new late nite spot, instead it's just a carryout. read more

Clean, casual, friendly place. Food was hot and well prepared. Portions were filling. Will cost an average of $15-20 per person (not a complaint). Overall, I think the prices are reasonable. For a RECOMMENDATION, I suggest The Owl Fries!!! I don't know how they took basic ingredients (we've all had loaded fries, come on...) and made them fantastic, but The Night Owl did!! P.S. The staff was the BEST, seriously. read more

Night Owl Diner - Diners Near Me - Toledo, Ohio

Every-time im looking for a club sandwich this is my go to restaurant! I can always depend on them for a late night meal!

A solid, comforting, reliable spot for casual late night dining. The food was simple, in the best way possible. When I ordered a Nutella waffle, I was expecting a huge hodgepodge of garbage on my plate. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was a very simple waffle drizzled with a couple of syrups and topped with powdered sugar and sweet cheese. Not overwhelming, but still appropriately delicious, as one would hope a waffle would be! Also, the owl fries are to die for. Another simple take on loaded French fries complete with queso, sour cream, bacon, and chives. Absolutely delicious, not nauseatingly enormous, and perfect for a casual late night comfort bite with a friend or solo. The ambiance of the place is perfect. Low lighting, friendly staff, and comfortable seating options. I would say this diner strikes the perfect balance between junk/comfort food and reasonable portions. Would recommend, 10/10! read more

Night Owl Diner - Sign - Diners Near Me - Toledo, Ohio

Night Owl opened very recently, within the last few months, I think. For starters, it's in Toledo, serves filling food well after midnight, has enough space for dine-in, and is an independent restaurant with a local feel not part of a large chain. We desperately needed that after White Tower sadly closed down. (Or at best is open very intermittently. Yelp still lists White Tower as open but they've been closed the last couple times I drove by.) So I really love this place and really hope it stays open and plan to be a regular patron. I encourage all night owls in Toledo to do the same. The negative aspects of this review should be taken as constuctive criticism, to help them to improve over time. Night Owl has a really interesting atmosphere. I love how it is explicitly night owl themed, it makes me feel welcome. You can tell they put a lot of work into the lighting design and the choice of music. It gives it a kind of swanky afterhours club vibe . . . Except that completely clashes with the uncomfortable chairs and the bright light coming out of the kitchen! And also to an extent the view of Secor Road and Sylvania Avenue out the window. I'll give them a bye on the view because it's really cool how the neon lights reflect off the window, and if they partly covered the windows to mellow out the annoying suburban atmosphere they would also lose those reflections. But what I think they could really do to make the vibe more consistent would be some comfier seating, like sofas or at least more comfortable chairs, and dim the bright light coming out of the kitchen or block it off from the dining area. The seating might be difficult given the limited space available, but the light from the kitchen could be changed easily I think? Then again, I kind of like the vibe just how it is, a sort of hodgepodge between a swanky club and a carry-out focused diner. Maybe they were even aiming for that eclectic vibe on purpose. And there's something to be said for being able to see into the kitchen. As for the food, it's okay but not exceptional. So far I've tried the burger, the blueberry blintz waffles, and the owl bread. The burger was fine but I've had much better burgers. The waffles were fine but unexceptional. The owl bread was kind of a zany hodgepodge, similar to the place overall. Sausage, lettuce, and ranch dressing, what? Next time I'll probably get the chicken sandwich. At the prices they charge I would usually expect real cutlery rather than plastic cutlery. (Then again, Zingo's is similar in that regard -- similar prices and plastic silverware -- so not completely unreasonable. But Zingo's has excellent food rather than so-so.) Overall, I'm very happy to have the Night Owl around, enjoy its quirky aesthetic, and look forward to my next meal there! read more

Night Owl Diner - Loaded fries Wow !!! It's got it all!!! - Diners Near Me - Toledo, Ohio

I had a great experience very welcoming business! My server Jaydn made very friendly conversation to me and treated me as if we'd been friends for years! The mood in the diner was spectacular as well I was having conversations with people dining next to me and we also had a great chat! they had this cute festival tree and nice background music-- its was a really chill atmosphere not to mention the food was phenomena! Will be coming back! read more

Very expensive & waited over 40 minutes for 2 burgers. I asked the manager when our food would be ready after Id waited 20 minutes and was essentially laughed at and told to wait till it was done after 5 people who ordered after me had already gotten their food. Extremely poor customer service, burger wasnt bad I'd say on par with Burger King. Will not be dining back read more

The service was prompt and the food was ready at the time we were told we could pick it up. The staff attending the counter was friendly and polite. The food was fine. The blueberry waffle looked like there was maybe 2 tablespoons of the blueberry compote on top. I couldn't taste the hot honey on the chicken and waffles. The chicken that came with the waffles was overcooked and tough. The bacon was good. The Owl fries were a very small portion for the price and the same for the pretzel bites. Overall the portions were very small for slightly upscale and overpriced diner food. I'm sure their target demographic won't mind paying the premium for food in the middle of the night, but for a family dinner, it just isn't worth it for me. read more

We ordered the fried pickles and the owl fries to start off both were very good! The Hot Honey pepperoni pizza and the double cheeseburger was fantastic! The staff was super friendly. Definitely coming back!! read more

Overpriced for what it is. Base cost for the food that goes on a $12 plate is about $2.75. I don't really see the point of paying a 300% markup. read more

Night Owl Diner - Hot Honey Waffle - Diners Near Me - Toledo, Ohio

I visited the Night Owl for the first time Tuesday night and I couldn't have been more thrilled for a place like this in Toledo. I got the double cheeseburger and fries and it was a 10/10!! The burger was perfectly seasoned and so flavorful. The fries crispy, hot, and also well seasoned. The restaurant was steadily busy so hopefully they are around to stay!! read more

Went to get my food when I got off at 3:30am on my way in a weirdo ask me about my gun I had on my side and I was like wtf! Went got my food and told owner girlfriend or what ever she is to him what just happened! On my way out he was still there and waited till I got to my car and said my gun was not real! I said MF! Fuck with me and you will find out! He shut up really fast! I will never go there again because of this experience! Food was okay n not okay! Be safe if you go there at night! read more

Dude this place is awesome. Great food, portions, service, and vibes. 10/10. Would highly recommend your DD to bring you here after the bar instead of T Bell. read more

The food there is fantastic (especially the Double Cheese Burger, the Owl Fries, and the Hot Honey Chix)! The employees there are nice too. I just think atmosphere inside the restaurant could use a little more pizzazz! I mean, I do like the neon lights and the amount of space around the restaurant, that's a start. All that I'm saying is it could use some more finishing touches, like graffiti art on the walls, or even paintings or wooden flame art, ect. The restaurant could also have more verity of food or even as a special on the menu (for example: tacos, chips and queso or salsa, Mac n cheese, breakfast burritos or cheeseburger eg rolls, and even deserts like ice cream and cake). I just thought to give suggestions to help spice up the restaurant a little bit, but over all I definitely recommend this restaurant a good place to eat and hangout!!! read more

Trash food and pricey I would never try that place again EVER!!!! Not a lot of options and Again food was horrible

Loved what they did with the place! Friendly staff and great food.
