I ordered gluten free chili and potato skins. They were great and tasty. The service was good and they were very busy. It looks like to me that a lot of people go to this place. The ambiance was nice. Great diner coming from Greenwich. read more

I stopped by for lunch with family on a Sunday. Despite being busy, we only waited about 10 minutes to be seated. The menu was standard for a diner. I decided to order the tuna melt with sweet potato fries. I've had better tuna melts at other diners, but this one was still good and satisfying. I enjoyed the sweet potato fries the most. If I dine here again, I'd like to try something off the breakfast menu! read more

Went here last night with my friend and I had breakfast for dinner. Absolutely the best home fries I have ever had! Very pleasant waitress and service was quick. Definitely plan on going back. read more

While the food was good. The service was so unfriendly. No greeting. No hello. Our server seemed less than thrilled to be doing her job. When we went up to pay. Absolutely no acknowledgment. No hello. No how was everything? Nothing. Is having no personality part of the job description. The only person who smiled and was friendly was the hostess. As nice as this place is, I'd skip it next time. This was Friday morning around 9:30am 6/12/26. read more

Have been here several times since my other review as I stay at the Hampton Inn right next door often. No issues since my one bad experience when they weren't open. The food here has always been top notch and service is great. This has now become my go to restaurant when I'm in the area. Whether for breakfast or dinner you can't go wrong. read more

Used to love this place. Every Thursday they have split pea soup which USED TO be delicious. Reminded me of homemade. Something has changed...owners? Chef? But the soup isn't good anymore and the croutons are soft and taste like burnt grease. My go to has always been the open faced turkey dinner and even that has changed. The gravy used to be that wonderful thick yellow gravy and now it's some watered down version. And they have been adding in a seasoning that I can't quite place but it just ruins the dish in my opinion. Diners are know for large menus and consistency. They've lost the consistency in their meals. Disappointed. read more

Dinner with my aunt after a long day. Staff at the diner is always friendly, helpful and welcoming. Service is great. I had the California BLT wrap - I ate half and half for lunch the next day. The desserts looked amazing, but I was too full. Will have to come for dessert sometime. read more

Great pancakes, I think the best I've had. Servers are typically pretty attentive too. However I'm here to talk about the design decisions, the inside, what an improvement. But the outside... the upper windows look like they have plywood and the building is still under construction, the new white buildings they refaced makes it all look even worse and unfinished. A project to never be painted and windows to never be completed is how it reads. By far the most unsightly plaza in Shelton. Perhaps the fault of the property owners decisions but you should let him know. read more

I eat lunch at Plaza a couple times a month. It's always great! Do yourself and try the pastrami! This was my first time in for breakfast with my family. Pancakes, eggs, omlette and a sandwich were all delicious. I love the fruit plate. They make them ahead and keep them in the refrigerated case. The fruit and plate are ice cold when it comes out! Staff is always friendly. The place is always clean and ready to go. Tables get bussed and cleaned quickly and the no nonsense servers get the job done! read more

On a Sunday morning t 11am, the parking lot is full and there are others entering the resteraunt. Place is packed but we are seated immediately. 2 bus Boys are tripping over each other yo get us water and settings before we are settled into our seats. They depart and are immediately replaced by the waitress. Orders were delivered crazy fast. The food was great! The fruit plate was ice cold, crisp and plentiful. The omlet and potatoes were delicious according to my wife. I had the polish trio, it was great too. read more

My mom recently moved and the plaza diner one of the closest to her new digs. I've been to the plaza many years ago, but have gone back a few times recently when visiting with my mom. The place is clean and staff is friendly. What really draws me here is one sandwich, the Turkey with Twist. It's fresh sliced Turkey ( none of that deli stuff) Swiss cheese and bacon on toasted Rye with a side of coleslaw and thousand island. Sooooo good. I order it every time I come. Pro-tip: I always add the thousand island and coleslaw directly to my sandwich. My mom has enjoyed all the meals she's had especially the grilled cheese (comes on thick buttery Texas toast) and their sweet potato fries. I'll definitely be back, but not sure I can order anything than my beloved Turkey with a twist! read more

First time visit to this Shelton diner for a late lunch suggested by my friend who loves this place and often frequents. Nice variety of items on the menu at reasonable prices (for these days). My friend ordered her go to favorite of the in house roasted turkey dinner-which comes with choice of soup or salad and potato I chose the gyro platter with rice-which also comes with soup--and we both got a side of coleslaw and unsweetened iced tea. The food arrived relatively quickly. All looked and tasted very good and fresh , decent portions, and we both loved the coleslaw. We also both took home leftovers as even though we were stuffed to the brim, we just could not resist a dessert; lots of sweets in the display case calling our names. The place was steady the entire time and all seemed to be enjoying the food and relaxed atmosphere. Service was great, the restrooms and dining area were clean and well kept and there is ample parking. Oh and they had some great music in the background! I would definitely recommend a stop in. read more

Food and service was very good. The bus people are extremely pleasant. The waiter was great! My only complaint would be the disturbing news channel running on every tv. It is Easter, and the message coming over the tv was not very Christian. It was disturbing. read more

I would've given five stars but the hostess was such a b---h. Never looked up and apparently we were interrupting her by coming in. Breakfast was excellent. Server Amy was perfect. Will return on hostess off day read more

Was there Saturday evening . Help was great but we were always ruched before I ate my last french fry they took my plate, and the cost of a 8 ounce glass soda for $2.95 with ice also at the most 5 ounces of soda the restaurants should give it to for free. A rip off at all restaurants ,get smart managers my son works at a restaurant and they charge $1.50 with unlimited refills.water next time read more

It had been many years since my last visit. What I remembered on my last visit was a run down place that felt outdated. No more. It's clearly been renovated and refreshed and it shows. Lots of TLC in this place. (The bathroom might've been the nicest diner bathroom I can remember being in). The breakfast remains rock solid. There's no gourmet here but that suits me just fine. The eggs were cooked to order and I enjoyed the home fries too. Coffee got refilled without asking and service was quick. Hey, it's a diner. And a good diner to stop at if you're in the area or headed down to NYC from Hartford. read more

Good diner food. Better service!!! Great place to come for a diner experience breakfast!

I've been eating here for many years, the service is always good. The food is always good. The prices are reasonable. Someone wrote a review and said the place is always noisy? I disagree. As diners go. It's not that noisy read more

I knew this breakfast experience was going to go downhill quickly when my waitress approached me and said "you wanna order something?" No I wanna sit here and admire your advertisement placemat and your faux mica table top. Good grief. Management needs to train their staff To be kind and approachable instead of acting like they lost at bingo last night. read more

Plaza Diner Restaurant - Who's interested in day care centers and realtors in Shelton Connecticut? - Diners Near Me - Shelton, Connecticut

I am sad to report Plaza Diner takes the cake for the worst meal we've paid for so far in 2023... Though the shake (which isn't even on the menu, you have to ask for it) is killer! As we sat in this overly tan, dated-looking (but not stylishly so, like some retro diners) eatery, we ordered entrees only, which were a French Dip ($15) and Fish and Chips ($20), as well as some French Onion Soup ($6). The French Onion Soup was flavored quite nicely in its salt content, though was missing that signature caramelized flavor that is imperative for a perfect execution of the dish. The Fish and Chips were overly fishy, and the breading was crisp, but bland without an ounce of salt. The fries (chips) it was served with were also anemically flavored and lacking crispiness. The French Dip was even worse. The roast beef was well-done (aka overcooked) and tough, and biting into it was a chore, even after soaking it with the au jus. The amount of melted Swiss was excessive, pretty much macerating the meat and then congealing into a greasy hard casing, leading me to believe the sandwich sat for a while before being served. Our waitress was fine, but inattentive and fairly brusque, and we got none of that friendly diner aura from this staff that I would expect from a diner. Would not recommend it, as the only item executed properly (the shake) isn't even on the menu. read more

The food is delicious. You never have to wait long to be seated and get your food. Great service too, our waitress Jessica was excellent!

I had an exceptional breakfast and even better service from Erin! The place was very "eye-opening" as you can tell by the stimulating decor. Thank you for a great meal at a reasonable price. 5 stars! (*****) read more

I went with my boss on a business trip and we ran into some people we knew while we were there. The menu seemed like it had a decent selection. I wasn't too hungry so I just got a bagel sandwich with sausage, egg and cheese. Their bagel options weren't very good. That was a little disappointing. No one complained about their meal but no one finished their's either. When I'm in there area, there aren't many places close to the hotel and the building I'm visiting. I'm sure I'll be back to give them another chance. read more

Make sure you arrive hungry! The food is excellent here and they really fill the plates.

Good diner food at reasonable prices. Good service and no rush! Only downside was parking

An excellent Greek Diner whether you do breakfast or lunch. For breakfast their omelets are great as is the hash & eggs or sausage you can't go wrong. For lunch, they have one of the best traditional Gyros I have ever had. Plenty of meat and vey fresh vegetables. Their French fries or sweet potato fries are tops. If you want a great dinner, this is the place to go. read more

Love this diner! Salads were great and very generous portions! Food at times can be a little inconsistent but overall its good, if you are very precise with how you want your food it will be perfect. Service is great! If you decide to give it a try please ask for Patty she is the best!! read more

My family went here for breakfast when we were in town for a wedding. Overall, everyone was very pleased with their meals! The French toast with bananas was pretty good. The French toast was a little dry, but maple syrup helped! We all ordered coffees which were decent. I wish they had a list of beverages on the menu so I knew what they had to offer. Our waitress was really attentive even though they were very busy. read more

My wife and I have been looking for a good breakfast spot close to our house. Not "just sandwiches" but a place to go and sit and order a breakfast. We have tried another diner in the area and we're not fans. We had been to the Plaza Diner many years ago but couldn't even remember if it was lunch or breakfast (we didn't live in the area then).... And for context before smart phones where a thing :) We both ordered scrambled eggs with well done home fries and rye toast. Everything was good and the home fries were actually well done - crispy without being burnt! The crispy without being burnt is my wife's number 1 thing. We will be back maybe next time omelette or pancakes! read more

The plaza diner was a delicious dinner after a long day of work. The server we had Eve was absolutely adorable and super friendly everybody was really nice and both sandwiches we had my husbands on the deli with roast beef and cheddar and my Ruben with pastrami were absolutely out of this world. The not your average nachos were really delicious and we took a Napoleon desert to split to our hotel it was heavenly. If you're in Shelton I highly recommend you check out the plaza diner they're really nice and their food is really good. read more

I would consider giving this establishment a 0 star rating. One of our favorite go to resteraunts when we come home from Florida. We waited roughly 10 minutes for a waitress to come over while being sat between 2 large parties against the back wall. We were over looked and passed by a manager and a waitress. As we got up and left the area waitress started running out. Nope sorry. I understand it's busy but getting locked over is unacceptable. read more

Plaza Diner was one of the few restaurants open when we got in from the second leg of our road trip late on a Tuesday evening, and conveniently close to the hotel we were staying at so we stopped in for dinner. I ordered the gyro with waffle fries. Our food was delivered to the table reasonably quickly, and I was impressed at the freshness of the greenery accompanying the gyro meat on the pita. The gyro meat itself seemed to be a slightly thicker version of the usual Sysco-esque strips you'll find many places, and was slightly bland, but well-cooked and overall it was a tasty gyro. The waffle fries were delicious; hot, salty, and perfectly fried. Even the slaw that came on the side was good; usually such sides are afterthoughts and way too sweet, but this had a little vinegar punch to it. Service was pleasant enough, though I did have to ask for the tzatziki that was supposed to come with my dish. We also ordered a piece of berry cheesecake to go, which unfortunately disappointed as it was overly sweet with a too-soft texture, and the piece we were given was hilariously small compared to the featured picture on the menu. The interior of the restaurant was very nice, as I understand it was completely renovated some years ago. If you're looking for some reasonably-priced diner food, while you probably won't be bowled over by what Plaza Diner has to offer, you almost certainly won't be disappointed either. read more
