The food here was absolutely amazing. It was so good for dinner we went back for breakfast that did not disappointment. Stop when in the area.... You will be glad you did. read more

If you are looking for a place like the Cheesecake Factory, you've pretty much found a demi-clone of it here with Red Line Diner. Now, I have no idea if there is some history or relationship between the two, but after looking closely at RLD's expansive menu, I couldn't help but compare them, and I noticed that several of the entrees seem named the same as well (i.e. Chicken Madeira, Bang Bang Chicken). And, since I like the Factory, that's a good thing! Given that, if you have a picky group that has divergent tastes and you can't figure out where to go, then go here. The menu has everything, and there will surely be something for everyone. On my visit, I went with the Gyro. Sure, the waitress pronounced it "Jye-Roh", but I was happy with it. Very fresh pita, good tzatziki sauce, and came with a side of fries. Wifey went with the aforementioned Chicken Madeira, and she would assess it was 90% as good as the Cheesecake Factory. Given the eerie similarities, we did have to order desserts, including a strawberry cheesecake. It was good, though perhaps too fluffy with not enough solid texture the way I would prefer. We also got a Napoleon, which is a really an old-school French layered custard pastry dessert also known as a 'mille-feuille'. Folks - this is the dessert to get here. All in all, RLD is a likely crowd pleaser, with an enormous menu, decent service, and solid delivery of what they offer. We'd go back. read more

Always stopped into Cracker Barrel after picking my daughter up from West Point and wanted to try something different so we stopped in here for lunch. We were greeted and seated straight away and I really liked the decor was like retro modern and I liked it. The place is really clean for as busy as it was which was nice. Our waitress came and took our orders and our food came out at within a decent time. My daughter had the turkey avocado bacon melt with soup and her boyfriend had a double burger and I had the BBQ brisket melt with soup. The chicken noodle soup was fantastic and tasted like home made. We all enjoyed our meals and the fries were great as well and I usually could take or leave them. When we were done we all shared the peach bread pudding and I can tell you it was amazing!!! I can honestly say I am glad that we stopped to try this place out as this is my new stop when in that area. read more

Good service and the food was as good as expected from what I was told. I forgot to take a picture of the Rio Grande Rolls but they were delicious and didn't last long! I also got the Chicken Avocado Focaccia Panini and it was also very good read more

The last time my best friend, Houdini (formerly known as Pots & Pans) and I stopped here together was almost exactly 6 yrs ago. It was 1 o'clock in the morning, and we were on our way to our first x-country trip....25 states (and two Canadian provinces) in, coincidentally, 25 days in a rental car. First day was 892 miles and we ended up in TN (I drove all the way while P & P slept most of it). Fun fact, the rental had 223 miles on it when we picked it up, and 12,209 miles when we returned it! Anyway, just coffee back then. Today, it was breakfast b4 a long hike. Plenty of parking. Red Line has all the bells and whistles..lots of neon and stainless steel and an extensive menu. Baking done on premises. I opted for a florentine omelet (spinach and feta), w well-done HFs, and rye toast. Naturally, Houdini got the exact same thing. Service was excellent, the omelets, etc. delicious, and prices not out of whack. We left well-caffeinated. One thing of note...corned beast hash is not homemade. From a can. I always ask, and order it if homemade. 4 solid stars read more

A great vintage style diner with a typical huge menu. If you're looking for a NY traditional diner you've found it. We arrived on a busy Sunday morning and were greeted and seated fairly quickly. I had eggs Benedict, with avocado (along with an unknown ridiculous upcharge) and my hubby had breakfast with hash. Both were delicious and plentiful. I mentioned the upcharge because it's my pet peeve when it's not mentioned. Other than that it's a bustling diner with good hot food coming out and friendly staff. We are tempted by the desserts on leaving and grabbed a vanilla slice to go which was delicious!! read more

Best Diner! Cream of turkey soup on Sundays with some hot sauce so delicious service always very friendly and professional

Every time I come to fishkill, New York, we always come to this diner, and it's always exceptional. In the following ways: Ambience five stars, service five stars, food five stars, customer satisfaction, five stars. Check the windows when you walk inside the diner there spotless they are on their game here. This is a great place to eat and the price is a reasonable. I always get more than what I pay for when I come to this diner. No regrets, ever. Enjoy read more

Never disappoints! I bravely ordered meatloaf and mashed potatoes! It was excellent! Real mashed potatoes. Perfectly cooked, Firm veggies on the side . Glass of wine (or two) happy girl! I've been here for breakfast too - excellent. Far more than you'd expect at a "diner"! read more

Very cute old school diner located in Fishkill, NY. I loved the old school vibe and decor. It made me feel like I went back in time when diners were real diners...great food and hospitality, informal and inexpensive with an extensive menu. They are open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. They have a great menu with a variety of tasty options. You can order of the entire menu any time of the day. Breakfast for dinner...sure! They have so many great options that it was hard for me to chose. The also offer cocktails and an EXCELLENT dessert menu. WOW! The service was great: Friendly Fast Helpful Brought our baby nephew some free cookies I ate here for dinner and breakfast and was very pleased with everything. I highly recommend the French toast. Delicious! This place is a must try! read more

We booked a table of 8 for Noon on a Sunday. Huge mistake. After waiting in the crowded entryway we were seated in the back room at about 12:10pm, a reasonable wait. Our food order however did not arrive until 1:10pm. The wait staff was clearly overwhelmed. I shared our experience with the manager (older gentleman) at the counter in front and he mumbled something about the kitchen being busy and offered NO apology. To make matters worse, the food was mediocre. read more

I always hit this restaurant when I'm in town for work. One because it's very convenient to hotels, but more importantly, it's the food and service. They never disappoint! This last visit was no exception. I sat at the counter and had MICCI as my server. She is full of energy and excitement to keep her customers happy. She was very informative about places in the area to visit and other restaurants for other types of food. My glass was never empty and my plate was always full. This woman knows everything about customer service. All the staff working with her were just as friendly and hard-working. I highly recommend getting a crock of the French onion soup. Mine was piping, hot and drowning in cheese. Also had a Gyro that was outstanding. I always make this a stop and I would suggest it to others read more

This diner is a gem around an area of chain restaurants. The ingredients are top notch. And the servings are just like a diner does - huge! But that's where the diner experience ends. Then it's all local, expert, organic and fine dining. We shared most of our meals because of the quantity, and each was a splurge of flavor. Had some of their cocktails too - excellent! Surprising diner for sure! read more

The food here was really good. Our server was nice. It was kind of busy and she was a little slow getting what we needed. The decor is was very cute. The menu was almost too big so it was a little hard to decide what to have but everything we got was great. Will be back if I'm in town. read more

Red Line Diner is a solid, casual dining spot in Fishkill. It really is hard to beat this place for a quick and satisfying meal. I've been here many times, and most of the menu items are very good. This is not mind-blowing cuisine, mind you. But for a diner, Red Line is always consistently on point in both presentation and taste. Red Line has excellent burgs, salads, pastas, apps, and more. The restaurant is well managed too. The food is always served in a timely manner, and I've never had a bad waiter or waitress. Plus, they keep the restaurant clean and it always feels inviting. The only possible downside is that Red Line does get busy. But again, they do manage the foot traffic and lines well, and the wait is never overly long. Plus, they offer a dollar rewards program for guests, which is worth signing up for if you're a regular. Can't beat it for what it is. Top recommendation. read more

Great food and mix drinks. Have lots of beer options as well. Awesome service and great atmosphere.

Overall, the experience was positive and service was good. I ordered the grilled salmon over a salad. The salmon was so over cooked as to be bone dry. No sauce available to try and :moisten it up". I only ate a third and the waiter asked to wrap it up. I informed him that it was too dry to be eaten. No response. The other eight people were happy with their meals. Mostly burgers and salads. I probably made a mistake ordering salmon in a diner. I would go back and order differently. read more

My new favorite diner when we're in this neck of the woods. Just like a diner should be: options for every taste and whim. Service was prompt and friendly with several of the waiters and manager checking on us and engaging us in friendly conversation. The feel is classic diner but modern enough that you feel you're getting the best dining experience possible. The dessert case is on point tempting you from the moment you walk in, and the cheesecake doesn't disappoint. Love that we can get a variety of cocktails, but as I always say we come for the beer. There's a decent draught beer list with enough local craft beer options even to satisfy us. This place is on my definitely must stop in when we make a trip to the east coast. read more

Had a wonderful experience at the redline diner after being high recommended by my daughter, who lives in the area. Our waiter, I think his name was Jimmy was fabulous and looked after myself and my dining companion like we were his own mothers. This was despite how busy the place was with every single table taken on a Saturday at lunchtime. The dishes came quick and were served hot and they were ample. I ordered avocado toast, with lox, topped with capers with a large portion of home fries, and a generous cup of fruit. This was also served with a generous portion of hollandaise sauce, which I didn't even need, but my dining companion scarfed up. This is a typical downstate diner, which has an enormous menu and based on how crowded it was is a very popular spot. It is also just off route 84, which makes it convenient when traveling. The ambience is diner, casual, and everything is sparkling clean. Oh, and don't forget the dessert case. I got a lemon meringue pie piece to go which my husband greatly enjoyed. The only recommendation I have is to fix the locks on two of the bathroom stalls, which don't work. read more

Absolute gem that I would never have visited if it weren't for uber eats screwing my order up so bad that I left the hotel in cold temps to find food. Atmosphere is exactly what I expect of New York. The locals are here, the wait staff is excellent, and the food is damn good. All of it just works and the place is clean! Bravo to those who work here. Thanks for being open on thanksgiving and Black Friday. Hats off. read more

I've been going to the Red Line Diner for a while now, and it never disappoints. The food is consistently solid--classic above-average diner fare--and the service has always been friendly and reliable. The place is clean, and the staff makes you feel welcome. Even on a recent visit, when their soda machine was acting up, our waitress went above and beyond, trying multiple times to get the Sprite just right. She was super apologetic and committed to making it right. It's little things like that that keep me coming back. You really can't go wrong with this place--it's always a good experience! read more

Food, service, and atmosphere are all fantastic. I have honestly liked everything I've tried there.

Ate dinner 5/15. Ambiance was good, Service by Christian was outstanding. We got the special crab stuffed mushrooms a bit pricey at $19 for 4 but they were excellent. I ordered the sirloin and scallops combo med-rare. It same out med well and first bite was tough. Waiter checked on us and got me another. He did leave before I was able to cut into it this time it was rare. I'd rather have rare than med-well so I took some bites. Edges were chewy one peice had very string fat running through the middle had to place it back on the plate. The middle was more tender I guess being rare should be. Very little taste and disappointed that is was very thin sirloin. I prefer to have a good thick and smaller steak. Mash potatoes were OK. Asparagus was good. Scallops were ok, 2 small ones and 1 decent size. $35 :( My wife got Filet of Sole with crabmeat stuffing, rice and veggies. She really like it. Fish was a bit thin but very mild and flaky. $31. They did give a good poor on there wines. The diner is suprisingly nice and menu was extensive. read more

Stopped in for dinner and was glad I did. Yelp reviews said the chicken pot pie was a winner and indeed it was. Washed down with an iced cold beer this meal hit the spot and was reasonably priced. read more

Had the pleasure of visiting this wonderful establishment. The food was excellent. I ordered the pork chop meal which consisted of cream style corn with mashed potatoes.

The decor of this place is wonderful and extremely clean. Happy Rating read more

Diners don't get any better. Clean. Shiny trim. Tightly managed. Great food. They don't build them like this any more and they're never managed this well. Stop in for a solid diner meal. Also have a full bar and a nice draft selection read more

The stuffed filet of is always an adventure of "hit or miss" here. Sometimes it's done right, and sometimes (like tonight) it's totally a MISS ! The filet is so overcooked that the best you can do is salvage what you can from the overcooked top and eat the rest, unless you don't mind that it's crunchy. Lol!!! and this isn't the 1st time. The cook should be working at IHOP flipping pancakes. read more

This made for a perfect stop from Buffalo to New Haven, about 5-5 1/2 hours into the the drive. We arrived around 5:45pm on a Sunday and boy was it BUSY! The staff worked like a well-oiled machine and our party of five was seated within 5 minutes. Well waiting, we couldn't help but be drawn to the drool-worthy dessert case. Huge cakes, pies, cheesecakes, mini chocolate bundts, rice pudding, and more. If we weren't already planning on stopping for ice cream, I would have definitely indulged in a sweet while at the diner. The kids ordered from the littles menu. I was happy to see some variety, everything from mini pancakes to salmon and steak. My kids devoured their m&m pancakes, chicken fingers, and cheeseburger (he even talked about this burger the next day). I only wish that the breakfast plate came with fruit. (FYI - drinks are not included with kids plates). My mom and I both ordered salads and added chicken. I was obsessed with my Greek salad. I'm usually one to stay away from feta, because it can get to be over-powering; however, this one was distinctly fresh and very tasty. I loved that there were a couple of stuffed grape leaves in my salad as well; would definitely order this again. My mom loved her spinach and strawberry salad. The fruit was very fresh and dressing added the perfect amount of sweetness. This diner surely has something for everyone! And beware, there are giant chocolate chip cookies are the counter that will call your name as you cash out. read more

ordered steak. I know. what idiot orders steak at a diner? not this one any more, at least not here. it was badly cut and consisted mainly of gristle. I could barely cut it with steak knife and couldn't chew more than a few bites. management didn't care when I complained, so I guess that's what it was supposed to be like. read more

We were looking for a place to stop off the highway. So thankful we stumbled upon this gem!!! Absolutely delicious.

I usually order from them. Last time I ordered the chx cordon blue sliders. Terrible dry, like shoe leather. No sauce, had to throw them out. Ordered childrens turkey dinner, stuffing was bad tasting did not taste like stuffing. Lemon merige pie tasted old. Waste of money for sure. read more

Red Line Diner has become one of my all time favorite diners since living in Dutchess County. My husband and I met at a diner which is why diners always hold a special place in our hearts so we decided to give this a try. Upon entering, the decor is so vintage and classy and it gives off a retro vibe which you don't see in much diners nowadays. The staff are highly attentive and sweet, very caring to their customers and even provide recommendations if you have any hard time choosing on their menu (it is extensive but in a fabulous way). I recently signed up for their free members account where you can earn rewards and points every time you visit so I'll be using it very often! Now for the food, it's HUGE portions and they put attention to detail to not only making it look aesthetically pleasing but absolutely delicious. My husband loves their Reuben sandwiches and I got a Fettuccine Carbonara which were both delicious. The prices are affordable and I highly recommend taking your kids/friends here too ! read more
