diner counter seating
Nathan H.

I came by for dinner last night and only got pictures of my dessert because I was too hungry and jumped right in to my Greek chicken on pita w/ fries. So there's an Apple pie alamode from last night and my breakfast from this morning because I had to give Orem's an appropriate review. Perfect eggs over medium, perfect bacon, real butter for my Belgian waffle and fantastic coffee w/ raw sugar available as an option to sweeten instead of fake or processed sweeteners! I love a good classic diner and Orem's hits all the marks w/ classic diner looks, feel, and service and everything is incredibly in great shape. Service is also the correct balance of attentiveness without being too much. Well played, Orem's Diner - well played!!

There are days when I just crave breakfast food. So one day for lunch the urge hit me while at work. So I went to the diner. I got a scrambled egg platter and a single pancake. I have gotten food from there plenty of times but never left a review. The experience is always good. The staff is very friendly and consistent. They food comes out pretty quickly. They have a big seating area but I mainly eat at the counter. And the prices are pretty reasonable. You really can never go wrong with a diner!

Western Omelette with toast and home fries!
Michele T.

There's something wonderful about a diner on a cold, wet day. It's cozy. Everything is good here. My go to is the Western Omelette. Soup, liver & onions, club sandwiches- it's all good. The only thing I wouldn't recommend is a burger. They're good, don't get me wrong- but everything on it is a la carte, even the lettuce and tomatoes. So it gets pricey quick. The owners wife makes the most incredible cheesecake, but not every day- so that's the first thing we check in the dessert cooler every time we come!

Drinks (Pepsi chosen on the right)

If you've even stayed in Wilton for any length of time, you have likely at least heard of a spot called Orem's Diner. If you've driven on the 7 and headed towards Norwalk from say Danbury, then you have at least passed by this place. For me personally, I've come here every now and then and have eaten from here at various times of the day. This past Good Friday was my first visit in almost 2 years, but I needed a place to dine that night, so this was an easy choice. The photos shown here are what I had that night: the Monte Cristo with a side of seasoned curly fries. I chose Pepsi for my drink because I honestly couldn't go with just water and it was a tad late for coffee for my liking. Now, for those uneducated on what a Monte Cristo is, it is a form of Croque Monsieur that uses French toast. If you haven't had Croque Monsieur before, I do recommend you try one because they do slap! It's why they're a French icon! The ambiance of the place definitely fits the place it is. You don't get much more of a true diner look than this. The food I've had over the years does average out to four stars, and that's the biggest reason for this not getting five. The Monte Cristo is a 3.5 out of 5: good, but you definitely need to eat it quick because it gets cold quick. The fries were seasoned perfectly and I have no complaints there. Now, I don't know if they still serve this, but my absolute favorite thing to get from here is when I would come for breakfast years ago and grab a Belgian waffle with a scoop of chocolate ice cream on top. I don't know of any other diner that does it that way, but that was the best thing I have ever had from Orem's. Serve it with bacon and it was breakfast HEAVEN! The service is generally friendly, but the methods of payment do irk me a bit. Cash is preferred, but they do accept card payments. What they DON'T accept is Apple Pay, and I find that to be a bit of a nuisance when paying for my food and is the other reason I have to keep this at a four and not bump it up to a five. Still, if you can find your way around that, you won't have a problem eating here. So yeah, if you're ever in Wilton, this is a pretty good spot to try, and it's a staple here. It's not going away any time soon. Coming for breakfast is preferable if you want the best food, but don't knock dinner either.

Western Breakfast Omelette

Food was extra delicious reasonably priced diner was very clean, including the bathroom! Plenty of staff, attentive, and everyone very polite! We came after lunch hours so it wasn't busy! But the place is big where it can definitely take the lunch rush hour w/o waiting! Menu has a big selection as well as deserts! Definitely recommend & will be back!!

Ordered a fruit bowl for my toddler and was given mushy fruit, which appears to have caused food poisoning. He's been sick for two days now after we had dinner at Orem's.

It was quite busy when we arrived on a late Sunday a.m. in January. Tables were filled and there was a line for ordering. We decided on a tomato cheddar soup and the Churn it Up sandwich with Havarti and provolone. We were told the wait would be 40 mins, giving us the option to wait it out or go elsewhere. We stuck it out and the food was at our table in less than 20 mins. The sandwiches were ooey gooey toasted cheesiness and paired perfectly with the creamy tomato soup. It came with a lighty dressed arugula salad. I had a freshly brewed ice tea and my dining partner got a Dr. Brown's soda. The breakfast rush was soon over but people were still coming in to eat and grab take out while we enjoyed our meals. They also offer beers and wines and hot chocolate. The entire place was very clean, including the restrooms, although I did not see any table wiping going on. Staff were smiling and polite. Plenty of parking in lot shared with other business.

It's very spacious and has an older kind of setting. They also offer a lot of outdoor seating. Nice decorum. It''s also located downtown so you can just walk to the park or sit in front of the waterfall if you don't wanna dine in. Food [5/5]: I got the cuban tacos and they were extremely delicious I'd come back for these again. Their entire menu sounds delicious to be honest so I'd like to try more things from there. But the tacos were very filling and the potatoes on the side were a great add on. The wrap itself was sweet and tasty. Service [5/5]: There was a lot of college kids in there and they're honestly running it well. The adults are probably in the kitchen but they're very friendly and I had the woman with the sleeve tattoo as my server and she recommended the cuban tacos. Fast and friendly service is always great I was in there for no longer than 30 minutes. Loved it. Overall I'd recommend! Theres no parking since it's downtown so you'll have to hope you can find street parking or park your car somewhere else and walk like I did. But it's in a great location! great food! and even greater service! I loved it!

Unfortunately, today's visit was the final straw, and we've decided we won't be coming back. Since changing the name from Studio Cafe to Tailored Home Cafe (located inside the interior design shop), something seems to have changed--perhaps new ownership or management. The portions are noticeably smaller, the food quality isn't what it used to be, and it's hard to justify paying Westport prices for an experience that no longer matches the cost. It's disappointing because this used to be one of our favorite spots, and we've visited well over 20 times over the years. I genuinely hope they can get back to what made them so successful in the first place, because we'd love to see them return to the quality that kept us coming back for so long.

Terrain Café is one of those places where the atmosphere is just as much a part of the experience…read moreas the food. It is located right next to their beautiful nursery and plant shop, and it's a really nice spot to grab lunch and then browse around for plants before or after. I ordered their crab flatbread, and the first thing that surprised me was how generous they were with the crab meat, mixed in with cabbage and charred asparagus. The asparagus had a nice char and flat and the cabbage added a nice crunch and texture. The flat bread itself was a little crunch which was interesting and I love how it wasn't overly heavy or rich. The flat bread came with a side salad with really fresh greens. It was so fresh and crunchy that my 9 year old son stole it from me and proceeded to devour the entire salad himself. Also, the setting is what really makes Terrain special. Being surrounded by plants and greenery, with the nursery and shop right next door, gives the whole experience a very relaxed and inviting feel. It's the kind of place where you can easily spend a little extra time after lunch wandering around and looking at all the plants and other items they have to offer. Our server was friendly although it was slow at times but we figured out it was the coffee bar that was slow. Overall, we really enjoyed our lunch there and would be happy to return again when we are in the area.

The menu is pretty stale, and they were out of 3 of the entrees. The food was ok. We got the hummus - it tasted fine, not much better than store bought, and the pita or whatever it was was burnt. The grain bowl was also just ok - the chicken has a hospital or airplane quality to it. And I guess this is more of a reflection of the kind of restaurant Terrain has become, but it felt like a daycare. Kids everywhere screaming. Parents not doing much to stop it. I get it, kids can be hard. But nobody cares anymore. Food all over the floor, shrieks echoing in the small dining room. Oof, it was just not a great time.
