Went here for brunch with the family. Gets really busy on the weekends. The food is really good and the service was great! Will definitely be back. Everything that we ordered was delicious. We all had empty plates. Need I say more.... read more

This place is really awesome! I've gone in here many times, usually after physical therapy at JAG, located in the same parking lot. (JAG is BEYOND AMAZING - see my review of them as well!) The people at this restaurant are so friendly, welcoming. They don't ever rush u. It is steadily busy but not overcrowded, loud, or annoying. They clearly have loyal regulars at all times of the day, not just people wandering around from the casino, which I am not trying to be rude about, I'm more getting at that it feels like a family business that happens to be near the casino. I will admit that I have only gotten a tuna sandwich on toasted wheat and a coffee, but it might possibly be in my top three of both in the area! I hate tuna sandwiches that are basically a mayo sandwich with a little bit of tuna. Nope - not here! It is a genuinely perfect balance. Wow, never imagined myself being so excited about a tuna salad sandwich, but hopefully that will convince u to try this place! Ok yes, there is plenty of parking. Just be careful about the exit/entrance & traffic on yonkers ave if it's any sort of rush hour. People are NOT cool about letting u turn to get in or out, cause of the way the stupid lights are programmed. I wish they had their own exit in the back. And now I REALLY sound like my grandmother! Just go there if ur hungry! read more

Well a group of us came here after late services ended at 9. This is your typical diner. Our server Lisa was lovely. All but 1 ordered breakfast and we all agreed the eggs and bacon were no bueno. I'll chalk it up to the lateness of the hour but I have it on good authority that what we received was the norm.The one friend that ordered dinner got the Salmon and said it was delicious, as dis the people he shared some with. I will definitely order that if I come back. read more

By Far the worst food I have ever eaten from a diner. Came for breakfast w my little sister and I was so disappointed. The food is horrible, COLD, nasty, uncooked ham, OLD bacon, snd the toast was soggy, the worst COLD coffee that should have been hot. Asked waiter to heat up coffee twice, staff very unfriendly, the manager was the WORST ever, had an attitude instead of making customer happy. He's unprofessional . This establishment is TRASH. The manager Told me that's how food is served, cold really? Paid $25.00 that hurt my pockets because the food was horrible and didn't even leave a tip, why would I. My tip to them is treat people better. I will never come here again. Everyone has an attitude and no one cares to fix the issue. N read more

Even one star is too much. Very bad food. Dirty stinky plates, tiny glasses for drinks so you have to keep looking for a waitress (they are all disappear) to give a refill. The garlic bread basket if few pieces of bread on a plate. The cheese fries are a slice of cheese slapped onto fries, veggie panini is alright but only if you don't mind a lot of oil. read more

It was my families go to diner for years but now it is my 2nd favorite. They did not change I just like a different place as they have a lot less parents with kids on the weekends then like here. They are popular and when it is packed it can be a little noisey. Their honey mustard chicken sandwhich is still my favorite so I have to come back every now and then. Nice staff and good diner food. read more

This place is nice; it's a regular diner. I wanted the waffle with two scoops of ice cream which was about $7 but the waitress recommended the deluxe waffles that were about $11. I chose that and got one waffle with two scoop of vanilla ice cream, chocolate syrup, whipped cream, rainbow sprinkles, cherry syrup and 2 cherries. This was missing the walnuts that was listed on the menu and the cherry cannot be replaced with strawberry. The waffle didn't taste great and I can see why the deluxe was recommended, without it the waffle is plain. Usually waffles taste sweet or something but this one was odd, almost eggy in taste. Take this with a gain of salt because cilantro does taste like soap to me. My boyfriend liked his chocolate chip pancakes and the side of fries were great. (Maybe I'll stick to ihop for waffles lol) read more

If you can't even get breakfast right what's the point. Breakfast was bland and thrown together in a hurry. No love, care, or flavor whatsoever. My wife and I both found previous leftover food crud on the utensils. Asked for replacements. Unacceptable in this time of Covid. read more

The service is great. The food, portions, price nice. I would recommend to anyone.

I walked into this diner because I was basically starving & if I would've imagined how horrible I would be treated by the owner, I would've preferred to starve. After I was seated by a hostess the owner rudely came over & made me move to the corner of the restaurant almost next to the bathroom because apparently my small stroller was in the way in the empty restaurant. Then I ordered French toast with bacon & the French toast was almost as nasty as the owner's attitude. The French toast was soggy, flavorless & nearly raw in the center. Please save your money & stay away from this disgusting establishment. You would have a more pleasant experience and will receive actual edible food in any other establishment in the area. read more

Went here with a couple of friends and got typical diner food - burgers and sandwiches. I have no complaints about the food - except that the fry portion was a little small, but my sandwich was overloaded with pastrami, so it evened out. Service was attentive without being annoying and the restaurant itself was clean. Parking lot was a little tight but there was plenty of parking. We'll have to come back and try out the breakfast. read more

This is my "go to" when I'm at Empire City and need a meal break. I was here a couple of days ago and got one of their lunch specials. I had a chicken sandwich/fries and a drink (included). The portion was huge; I couldn't even finish the sandwich. The fries were great. And a "free" iced tea was my bonus. The price....I thought I was back in 2013! read more

First time to Raceway diner tonight, most people have told me that it's a wonderful diner with amazing food and good service and so I decided to give it a try. We got in, 4 staff members looking at us and looking at each other hoping that the other would sit us down. Finally the guy at the register got off his phone and showed us a table. The place is dirty, like, very dirty. The jukebox on our booth was covered in dirt.. Grease, dust, all mixed up in one pile of slob. Disgusting. The place smelled bad. Now, while taking in consideration that this is a 24 hour diner I don't expect things to be new.. but at least clean. First step into a good impression. The food was actually pretty good, the fries were great. Coffee was ok. My friend's food wasn't that great, bacon was so soft it almost had a pulse. Service was not great. Server came right away to take our order and that was the last we saw of him. There were about 4 waiters and 2 bussers, all of them doing absolutely nothing, half were on their phones, half reading the newspaper. Some sitting at the counter as well. Not at all what I was expecting. read more

The food was mediocre as hell the waiter couldn't get us any water i felt like i had to bother her while she was talking to the waiter, service could be way better 0/10 would not recommend go to broadway diner on south broadway read more

Very good traditional diner. I had a spinach feta omelet that was loaded and was delicious!

Hello my name is Marco Polo. My small group of old dinosaurs came to your restaurant for the first time last Saturday 6/22/24 . Our regular restaurant the Broadway diner closes too early for us so we were looking and found your place that stays open much later. what a beautiful place you have. That particular day it was like 95° and humid but as soon as we entered your restaurant the temperature was perfect. not too cold but coolly enough .next thing I wanted to complement our waitress by the name of Linda was excellent. My Belgium waffle was good but not as tasty as the Broadway diner. My other friends seemed to enjoy their food. I'm a big french fry guy particularly steak fries which no restaurants offer anymore but my friend offered me a couple of her fries and they were excellent perfectly crunchy. As you can see I'm very into details. When I went to use their bathroom it was good to see the hot water was hot and the cold water was cold but I didn't see any paper towels.. The electric hand warmer was very weak. Maybe next time they'll keep a role of paper towels in the men's room. Before I went into the bathroom I asked one of the waiters if she had some paper towels she said no only napkins. But like I said overall very nice building and all the workers who took care of us were excellent and very professional. Also wanted to mention, as I'm a big decaf tea drinker and the decaf tea wasn't a name brand but one I never heard of, I believe it was called American, but it was very good. It's getting very hard to get a good tasting decaf tea but theirs was good They also had old-fashioned real sugar Domino packets. The simple things in life are getting harder to find so it's good to see that this diner tries to cover every detail beautifully. read more

Service was horrible I went here with my fiancé he ordered eggs and grits I ordered a blt and they were both ice COLD the waitress didn't even bother to check on us so then we had to track her down finally and tell her the food was cold so the owner (bearded guy ) came out he was acting like he was mad at us for the food being cold he didn't want to take the stuff off the bill . Will not come back to this place I don't recommend read more

I haven't been here in years, but who doesn't love a good old fashion diner. I just didn't have much luck that night with my food, but my friend's food was good. We purchased some dessert on the way out that were very good. The highlight of this whole night and writing this review is because of my amazing waitress. I work in hospitality and this are the kind of employees you just want to clone. Lol she was just a sweetheart. Overall my friend and I enjoyed our time there and left with a big smile on our faces. read more

Raceway Diner - My second order of a grill cheese.. just not worth my calories. My waitress was a super start she gets a A++ - Diners Near Me - Yonkers, New York

Stumbled upon this place while driving from NYC to Massachusetts and looking for a place to stop. What a surprising find! In the middle of dreary Yonkers, a real gem of a diner. And the staff couldn't have been nicer. Great food. Good prices. Clean. Good coffee. I'd definitely stop here again. read more

I'm here from Florida for a couple of weeks and I stopped at this place for dinner. The food was good but the service was impeccable to say the least. In my lifetime I have been to so many restaurants worldwide and and "never" had a waitress as charming, delightful and such a warm individual as Skye. I'm usually a very quiet, low key hard working man and just order what I want, eat and move on! However, Skye, my waitress brought out in me such warmth and comfort and I even shared photos of my family with her which I would rarely, rarely do with a stranger and she told me about her son and husband proudly. She made me lose my homesickness in a heartbeat and stole my heart. She greeted me with a smile from the first moment and it never stopped till I left. The food could have been horrible but because of her charm and warmth I would have enjoyed every morsel. You owners could not have hired anyone better than Skye. A true joy! Thank you Skye for turning my hard worked day filled with stress into to a beautiful evening Mike Medford Kelly from Hollywood Florida read more

HORRIBLE. Food is not fresh. Waitress was not professional, took forever to come to the table, and only appeared to serve water. The steak knives were so old and dull you couldn't even cut the steak. It's really only a destination for the casino patrons. You know a place is bad when they can't even serve fresh coffee..... Spare yourself the headache and the $$$. read more

So unhappy with my service. I went there today as a single diner, and it was 20 minutes before my waitress even approached me. then she dropped off my order , and didn't come to check on me until I finished my meal. I usually come with my sister and mother 1-3 per month and never had such terrible service before. If you're a single diner--diner beware read more

I was in the area for business and since it was lunchtime I looked for a place to eat. I saw what looked like a typical run-down diner whose best days were in the past, but since parking was easy and this was not going to be a complicated meal I went in. As a first impression, while the interior (and exterior) could certainly use an update, everything was clean. Just as important, the waitstaff didn't look like they hated to be there. They were pleasant and smiling and gave me my choice of where I would prefer to sit. I ordered a well-done western omelet with home fries and I have to say the dish was outstanding. The omelet was large and loaded with onions, green peppers, and ham. Most importantly both it and the home fries were cooked just as I had requested. My waitress was there to refill my glass and made sure everything was good with the meal. When I went to the rest room there was an employee inside wiping down the room. As far as I am concerned, the Raceway Diner is head and shoulders above some of the more modern diners I have been to. Good job guys! read more

This is my 3rd time coming here and I have not had a bad experience yet. The greeter for the night (I believe he's the owner or a really attentive manager)is always so pleasant & he checks in periodically with each table to ensure everything is going well. Our waiter was Marie, her first night and she was really sweet and attentive. My friend and I wanted a late night meal so we came to Raceway diner. The menu is quite diverse and they can make any additions you like. I had a souvlaki gyro & fries ($9.75), my friend had the breaded chicken with mushroom sauce ($15) & Nachos ($8.70). The breaded chicken entree did not come with a side but you get 2 big pieces of chicken with the sauce. The actual mushrooms are part of the sauce,it's not just for taste or out of a can. He liked it and felt full, typical food disposal guy-eat to sustain themselves lol. I found my souvlaki flavorful,the meat was not over done. I was brought the tsaziki (probably spelt wrong)sauce on the side to add as I see fit, which I loved. My only gripe was there were wayyyy too much diced onions,it felt like 2 maybe 3 handfuls of onions. Other than that I enjoyed my meal, it hit the spot. I tried the nachos which reminded me of movie theatre nachos-same cheese sauce,jalapeño,salsa,tomato,sour cream. If you want guacamole it's about .75 more to add to the side. The place is wheelchair accessible, multiple areas to sit-good for 1person to a group of possibly 10+.They have dessert,which I have yet to try. I have never used their rest rooms,so I'll save that for an update. read more

This is one of Yonkers best local diners. It's my go to place for a quick breakfast. They have the best coffee in town! Always friendly, respectful and courteous. On my previous visit I had a small issue with the fruit I was severed. Bought it to the attention of the server. The owner came over apologized removed the cost of the fruit from the bill. That was not my goal, I wanted to bring it to their attention. The owner felt it was the right thing to do. Just the fact the owner recognized the issue and was willing to take the extra step will keep me coming back. read more
