Rock solid breakfast diner. Far better than the overrated 50's Diner near Legacy Place. The only reason I don't give them 4 stars is because their supposedly fresh squeezed orange juice is so obviously not fresh and frankly is a notch below what I buy in supermarket. And OJ is a critical component of a breakfast meal! But the rest of what I order is very very good. read more

Just moved to the area, and the boy and I were in the mood for breakfast in bed. However, I have no pots or pans, and definitely no eggs, bacon etc. Yelp solves all problems! Found Rox online, called in an order and drove over to pick it up. The menu options at this place is key! We wanted to try everything! Instead ended up with: Banana and Nutella French Toast - more like a dessert than breakfast, but unreal anyways! Eggs Bolly - It is eggs benedict with corned beef hash instead of ham. Very good (even for takeout!) Hollandaise rocked, and corned beef hash had great flavor Eggs and Sausage - Its the boy's "go-to" order for judging a new restaurant. He loved it, and that says a lot. Oh! and the hash browns that come with it were AMAZING! Fresh squeezed OJ - So much better than stuff from the carton! we will be back for sure...now if only we would convince them to deliver my Sunday mornings would be perfect! read more

Hands down, the BEST breakfast I've ever had! I'm asian, so our breakfast is pretty much like our dinner, a bowl of rice and a dish to go with it (at least thats how i eat my asian breakfast). When i found this hidden jewel right next to my cousin's nail salon(surprise!) i was excited yet skeptical because I've never had a "real" american breakfast. My first order at Rox was an Al's Forklift, which consists of 3 eggs, 4 pieces of Bacon, 3 sausages and ham and i enjoyed every bite of that forklift. my second order, which i just finished about 10 minutes prior to writing this review, was a breakfast combo called The Rox (2 eggs, 2 sausages, 2 pieces of bacon and a short brioche french toast), it kind of tasted like Al's forklift but i like it better than the Al's forklift since it has the brioche french toast. Overall, SUPPER DUPPER great place for breakfast! read more

I have a feeling this place is 4-5 star worthy but for now its a 3. Pros: great menu,homemade,fresh squeezed OJ. Cons: very little seating,long wait. I ordered the big rig. This consisted of pancakes,eggs,sausage,bacon,potatoes and toast. Potatoes were excellent and so was the sausage. I chose the specialty pancakes(banana choc chip mascarpone) which were way too sweet. They gave me sour dough instead of multi grain toast which I do not enjoy. The eggs were very rubbery. I think i would go back and order something different next time. I would also never go back on a weekend. Waited over an hour for a table and another hour to eat. The waitress took our drinks off the bill and apologized for the long wait which I feel was great customer service. Overall a mediocre experience. read more

we had rebecca as our server! she was so attentive to our table with the best attitude. it got super busy and she still remained so calm. food was phenomenal we got some combo breakfasts. would definitely come back! read more

The best all around breakfast spot in boston. The food and service are consistently outstanding. Friendly fast service. Clientele... local small town feel. We love it here!!! At $17per person ... amazing value. The only thing that gives pause to a 5 star rating is the decor: The rooms need a coat of fresh paint and a new floor. Otherwise a great place to eat nutritious well prepared food without dealing with a people watching scene. read more

I love love this place. I am here all the time, bringing my family or meeting a friend. The egg bennys are great, any kind you get is awesome. My fave is the corned beef!!!! Recently I tried the Tahiti french toast with toasted coconut and mango YUM.. the Mimosas are great but be careful lol. Its a small comfortable place so be prepared to wait in line. Of course I would recommend it here, im here often enough. Might go back for breakfast today. read more

Rox Diner - Benny time - Diners Near Me - West Roxbury, Massachusetts

LOVE THIS PLACE! I highly recommend getting the Eastern breakfast sandwich, or the "Big Rig". The home fries are literally one of the best I have ever had. The staff is always friendly. If you go in often they will learn your name & your order and always greet you kindly. It's a tiny diner so it can get very busy. Especially on weekends. Usually there is a line out of the door but that just goes to show how good they are! I have recommended this place to so many people & every time they come back to me and say the place was amazing! Love Rox Diner! read more

This is based solely on the service.... I have tried to come here twice in June. Both times there appeared to be a wait as I did not see any open tables. I waited near the door since there is no waiting area or place to sit. Nobody acknowledged me so finally I left. This happened again the following weekend. There are young girls who were waitressing and though they walked right by me not one of them acknowledged me. Based on the terrible service I had here on two occasions I will not be attempting to come back for a 3rd try. read more

We went there and stood their by the door thinking someone would come and say hi but no one did. Two girls behind the counter saw us but chose to ignore us and after standing there for few minutes we walked out. This place isn't that big, they could have just said hi we could have clearly heard em but well they didn't.. won't be going there. read more

Great food, nice bustling but happy atmosphere. Lines are always out the door. My wife and I would always stop here first to see if we can get in without a wait. If there was a long line to get in, we just go to the restaurant across the street. read more

Best. Breakfast. Ever. I'm drooling just thinking about it. I've never had anything at Rox Diner that I didn't love. It's everything I look for in a diner: cheap, delicious, excellent service and kid-friendly (complete with mickey mouse pancakes or, in the winter, snowmen). The only thing that bums me out is the wait on some weekend mornings but that can't really be helped with food that good and a space so small. I haven't had dinner there yet but their lunch is great as well. (Tip: I'm not a chicken salad person but my friend, who is a HUGE chicken salad fan, said that theirs is the best he's had.) In short: this place makes my tummy happy. Do yourself a favor and check it out. read more

I'm always on the lookout for a good breakfast place, and have a special place in my heart for diners, so the Rox Diner was a must try. It really isn't a diner, in the classic sense. No old rail road car or stainless steel exterior. It is a very small store front that serves a decent breakfast. And it really is small. Be prepared to get to know your fellow diners because there may be only 18 inches separating you. They offer a decent amount of choices, from the usual omelette's and pancakes, to Irish Breakfast. I love a good hash and they had a turkey hash on the menu, something you don't see at a lot of places, but when done well can be great. Their version was very light, almost ground to a smooth consistency. It was seasoned well, but not something I would order again. Hash should have some chunks in it. Their omelette's were solid, definitely hitting the spot. Service and prices were very strong. Overall a three star stop. read more

Best breakfast in town! This is my First yelp post. I only signed up so that I could share how much I love this place. What do I like about it: They use free range eggs. Free Range eggs taste 1000x better than those dollar a dozen eggs. My Children love the Mickey Mouse shaped pancakes. I like the T-shirts that they wear, "I was born a Scramblin man," and the sign on the wall, "you break my eggs, I step on your face!" What I DID not like about it: It was too small; I have 4 children and it was starting to feel cramped in there. However, I heard they are expanding into the adjacent space and soon there will be plenty of room for all and no long lines. Scramble on! read more

AMAZING is all I have to say about Rox Diner. The breakfast is so amazing and service was great. I love the corned beef hash and eggs. They make the best homemade hash I have ever had! Definitely need to try it. Usually a wait but well worth it. read more

Never again. We started off with drinks, they gave me ginger ale was terrible. I asked for a different ginger ale and the new one tasting as worst as the first one. My friend asked for an orange juice and it had pulp so she asked for an apple juice as a replacement, and they still charged her for the orange juice. Then they brought out the bacon first which was burnt , and then to wait 25-35 minutes after for the rest of the food. Which came cold. read more

It's ok . Kind of bland . Service was mediocre. Not expensive but felt that way since the food wasn't very good. How do you mess up pancakes and bacon ? read more

I had French toast with banana and nutella, it was good. Next time I want to try any burger, they look yummy. The only thing I didn't like was that they didn't have bathroom, pretty bad for a dinner read more

So far great friendly service. Home to a rather older croud but still nice people. Ordered the All Business omelette and substituted the toast/home fries for an extra egg and was not let down. Meal came out pretty fast but with good quality and cooked well. Overall great service and atmosphere with above average diner food when compared to competition read more

Let's start by saying I was the only customer. The waitress had the personality of a dead fish. For being the only customer you would think the food would come fast and hot. Not the case slow and cold. The home fries were seasoned deep fried potatoes. Not much effort. Cold. Bacon, toast, and eggs not a fan read more

Good experience for breakfast. Sat at the counter. Bar stools are uncomfortable and the place needs to invest in A/C. Food is good Servers need a bit of motivation No place is worth waiting in line !! read more

It's worth waiting to be seated, it was a little Brit busy but they serve us good breakfast, we will definitely go back again ;)

I am genuinely confused about the lack of air conditioning in this establishment despite 90 degree temps. The food is okay but is overpriced for the quality of food and ingredients, in my opinion. Their home fries are quite good but come in radically inconsistent portions. The waitresses are generally pretty kind. read more

Been there a few times for brunch. Food and service been good ! Make sure you use online reservation if you go early in the weekend.

My husband and I love Rox Diner, food is always delicious, service is always good, and you can't beat the prices! Reason for 4 stars vs 5: They don't take names! It's such a small place so there's usually a wait, which is expected, but we don't want to get in a confrontation over who was next, so we often find ourselves going somewhere else. read more

Great prices and great portions. A little pricey for a diner, but you get a great meal for it (they also give you more in culinary style than a traditional diner!). Small space, but it works. Delicious Greek salad and tuna melt!! I'll certainly be back! read more

Love this place! Awesome food great staff, small Little homey diner in west Roxbury, get here early because it tends to be busy on the weekends ! read more

Rox is delicious ! Unfortunately very price 2 for breakfast 51.00 not including tip ! Yikes

Just plain great! Parking can get dicey, but it's worth it.

The food is great, but you'll be waiting in line for a table. Luckily it seems to go pretty quickly! I had the avacado BLT with fries. The bread was very hard so it was a little hard to bite but lucky for them I don't really love bread that much! There was plenty of bacon and avacado :-) read more

We have been coming here almost every Sunday. The food is always delicious and the staff is always so friendly. Good food, great prices, clean, friendly! read more

I walked in and it's a very small restaurant. A little over 10 tables and two waitresses. Not one said hello for at least 10 min. My boyfriend ordered breakfast and he loved it. I ordered a Cobb salad it was good. Personally service was ok. read more

I absolutely love the staff and the food here at Rox Diner! The food is always fresh, delivered quickly and the staff is EXTREMELY efficient and hard-working. The sisters who look alike are my favorite servers. They work so well together and make every Rox Diner experience a positive one. The food is fresh and portions are generous. Check out Rox Diner for lunch or breakfast. You won't be disappointed! read more

My favorite place for brunch on sunday.. there's always a line here but it is worth the wait . The service here is amazing and the food is delicious . read more

Went here for breakfast, new residents in the area. Service was a little slow cleaning the tables in a pretty empty place. However, coffee was hot and poured frequently. Food was delicious! read more

Super-friendly staff, good food and plenty of it. Great diner. The real thing. You always see someone you know here!

Rox Diner has got all your brunchalicious, morning-after favorites covered with American-sized portions of greasy carbs and starches (home fries, eggs bennies, French toast, you name it) but also some fantastic and more unique options like the avocado/pear omelette, which veers away from the usual flavor combinations and is quite delicious. I would get it again - and that's saying a lot! The diner itself is small and packed, but cozy and bumpin' on the weekends, so prepare to go early or wait in line. read more

The food here is amazing. My meal came out really fast and hot. I cannot get enough of the Brioche French toast!!! Quick service amd friendly staff. I may end up being a regular. Today makes my second visit here. No complaints. read more

Rox Diner - The Rox!!! - Diners Near Me - West Roxbury, Massachusetts

This is my all time favorite place to eat breakfast in the area. Whenever I stay in Boston I always have to stop by here with friends and have brunch. The portions are big, the price is reasonable, and the service is great. The only downfall is that you might have to wait in line for a while and it can get cramped. But the food is worth waiting for. read more

The place is small and very low key, not much of an atmosphere. However, the food is absolutely delicious and beautifully arranged. Highly recommended for a great gastronomic experience. We ordered Alaskan Benedict (smoked salmon) and duck confit hash with poached eggs. read more
