The food and service is good. Prices are Ok and get better if you join the points club. There are also coupons available in the local mailers. I do love their fries, reminds me of the vendors on Santa Monica beach after a day in the sand. Tired hungry and soooo good. read more

Service quick and efficient. Friendly vibe and super clean. Loved the breakfast. Ordered the vegetarian omelette without cheese. Yep, I know that is not an omelette my companion groans when I do that. It was super good. The vegetables were so fresh. The French toast was thick and substantial. I do not enjoy French toast that is thin and flimsy The best was the hash browns. Not greasy and had a pleasant crunch. Could have eaten another complete serve of these read more

The 3 stars is because it was clean and the 2 servers were working hard and did a good job. The food was awful. The patty melt was ordered medium and it came out beyond well done and even the stale rye bread was burned. The BLT had minimal bacon and a very small tomato. The sandwiches are made on very small slices of bread and are served without even a garnish so they look unappealing to start with, all alone on the plate. The pork chops were very overcooked and dry. He didn't even eat a whole one. The mashed potatoes were gummy. My chicken fried steak was decent but the rye toast was as hard as a rock. Our server discounted several items which I appreciate, but tasty food would have been preferred. read more

What a pleasant surprise. Everyone that worked there was so nice, and Angel gave us great service. He's pretty funny.. both of us had the Reuben and it was perfect. My friend had black bean soup and I had the vegetable beef. I truly was surprised on how good our food was.. I passed this place plenty and I'm so glad that I tried it today. I WOULD RECOMMEND read more

Waitress a little impatient, especially the older one. I can't hear that well, and she had a very demeaning tone to her. "I said there's only XYZ and not XYNZ" totally unnecessary. That really punched me in the stomach so while I was eating, my very dry and bland, tasteless food her town, and the meal exasperate. The whole situation. My partner had onion and livers more like cardboard and onions. "Let's just move on from this place and never return" Is what I told my partner. Ambience seems to be very unexciting. read more

Always great food!!! The service is fabulous! They are always so friendly and efficient!

Stumbled across this gem in north Scottsdale. Food is prepared amazingly fast! I got a country skillet. Loaded with sausage, gravy and potatoes! Oh yeah and some eggs. Only knock was the sausage and English muffins were a little over cooked. Will come back! Definitely recommend! read more

This is one of our favorite restaurants at the Summit. Food is always good. We love the breakfast entrees that are available all day. Service is quick. We also like to sit outside on their patio with our dog. read more

Let's start by saying very cute place. The ladies greeted us right away very friendly. We got a male waiter very low energy. I ordered a skillet can't recall the name but I was given chicken fried steak that was horrible. All breading. Sadly I just ate it and didn't have my correct order made. My husband's scramble was fine. read more

Pastrami sandwich: minimal. Soggy. Then charged for "technology " using my debit card. Nope. One sandwich with ice tea; $23. Ur u kidding me. read more

Food tasted like school cafeteria. Dry and without taste. Service was ok but the place was empty. Staff stood at counter on phones. Overall cleanliness not great. It takes less energy to prepare a fresh breakfast than to resuscitate powdered, frozen, and over-salted things. read more

Homey. Old style diner Old cafe style menu Everyone is so kind Will be back many times read more

Food is ok, egg a little runny and pancakes just ok! Wife had club sandwich and she said it was good! Great French fry's!!

I have been here many times while visiting town, and each time it has been solid. It's your typical diner in all the ways that could mean. Service is also extremely quick, the food will be at your table within 10 minutes of ordering, usually faster. I have always been for breakfast personally but know they are open for lunch and dinner as well. All the breakfast dishes I have ordered have been great so far and the cinnamon roll is especially decadent and delicious. I will be back many times in the future, each time I visit town. read more

Really good comfort food. CF Steak is great and they have the freshest salads in North Scottsdale. Yummy

The best item I've found here isn't even on the menu. It was offered as a special several years ago and they continue to make it when I ask. What is it? It's their Buffalo Chicken Wrap. I've tried to find another buffalo wrap in Phoenix that compares, but I've given up finding another one. Everything is perfect about the wrap - the spice level is just right, the chicken is good, the tortilla is good too. read more

Service was very good But the food? Almost tasted like the cook didn't turn up and they grabbed th first person to put their hand up scramble ...at least the scramble part is a close description Presentation poor Pancakes made too fast so the inside tasted stoggy All in all a pass read more

Food is just like home cooking. Service is quick and staff is great Always friendly- we are regulars and have never had a bad experience.

Stopped in the other day for breakfast with my son and everything was good. Quick service, food came out super fast, my crispy bacon was perfect and I like the choices in flavored creamers. My over medium eggs were made exactly right. Just a basic breakfast, but it was good. Would like to try them for lunch. read more

Stopped in for breakfast with my husband this morning! It's a nice little place and wasn't too busy for a Sunday brunch. Our orders were taking right away and delivered to our table quickly! You could tell a lot of people dining in were regulars and close to the staff which was nice! I got a vegetarian skillet with no eggs and sourdough toast. My husband got eggs, toast, hash browns, and bacon extra crispy. We both really enjoyed our food! I think I personally prefer breakfast potatoes in my skillets over hash browns but still really good. We also got a cinnamon roll to share which our server highly recommended and it was one of the best cinnamon rolls around and it's massive! Prices were reasonable too for all we got. Cool place! read more

I came here this morning with my dog. It was around 7:10am and we sat on the patio. I asked if that was ok. There was one woman working and she brought me a menu, took my order, and brought me and my dog some water when I asked. She never smiled, welcomed me in or even came back to check on me once she brought my 2 eggs with bacon, cottage cheese instead of potatoes, and 1 scrambled egg for my dog. I would have liked some salt and pepper, my table wiped down, and the check correct. I was the only one here. The bill came and there was a $1.19 charge because I substituted cottage cheese for potatoes, and I was charged for 2 scrambled eggs, not 1. I do not mind paying a fee for substitutions but they usually tell me. They gave me maybe 1/4 of a cup of cottage cheese. She fixed the extra egg charge but acted like I was putting her out. Food was nothing special, service poor, and the outside area dirty. Again, this place is nothing special and I wish I had gone some place else. read more

There are much better breakfast options around. We went in early on. Sunday. The place was dead. Service was not particularly friendly but not awful. All of the food was mediocre at best, but came out cold, and the coffee was pretty awful. All that for 70 bucks for a couple and two young kids. Maybe this place is better for lunch and dinner, but there are many better choices for breakfast. read more

Food is average at best. Service has a lot to be desired. Was the only one there on a Saturday afternoon for a light dinner. It was more important for the 3 young servers to play on their phones than to take my order. Finally had to walk to the counter and beg for a server. Once finally served I had to go to the counter and beg them to let me pay my bill. What's wrong with this picture? Highly recommend you stay away from this place. read more

A great old fashioned place to get a really good breakfast. Nothing fancy, but food is good

This place is definitely underrated. It's a great place for a reasonably priced breakfast or lunch. The staff is always friendly and ready to help. I personally like the breakfast menu much better than lunch. The sandwiches can be kind of skimpy on meat but breakfast is solid: eggs, bacon and the usual. read more

June 10, 2022: Don't waste your time and money here! They don't even rate 1 STAR due to the horrible customer experience, server, and cook on shift! Came in on a Friday morning, 8 am. Place is empty. Cook had all the time to cook my husband's order correctly. Husband ordered 2 eggs medium. What came out were raw eggs, runny egg whites and barely cooked yoke--looked like eggs sunny side up! I personally couldn't look at them. My husband is a good guy and eats what he gets. But he couldn't this time. The server (only one who ALWAYS is there) there took the eggs away, returned them, and told my husband that the cook (who she says has 10 years experience) said to order them: "Medium Well!" Be aware we have been here before.They cannot and will not cook "eggs to order," as claimed. I said, "My husband never had trouble getting his eggs cooked here, medium, the way he wanted them. Other places know what cooked eggs "medium" are. Never a problem!" Then, the server said, " Well, go there then, you only come in here with a coupon, anyway!" Well, it just so happens the CHURCHES in the area support this restaurant. They give this restaurant advertising in the church bulletins! As a result, the diner gives an incentive to the parishioners to come in and eat.... with a small discount coupon! Menu prices here are not cheap and there are extra charges for a basic omelette....like if you want cheese!, or glutenfree bread, and for their expensive coffee that one has to beg to get a 2nd cup, etc. We are also in their Diner's VIP CLUB. But, What a thing to say to a customer! The other thing: This server does not take feedback and controls everything. No use talking to or calling up the manager--there is none!--and, this server controls the phone, too. Maybe this server is the OWNER and doesn't care! Or, maybe the OWNER is the cook! The restaurant advertises their values/principles, whatever you want to call them. They say the restaurant is all about the customer dining experience. It may be nice on paper; definitely not in practice! read more

Breakfast was okay. I was given my bill. I paid cash. After I got home I noticed that on my receipt was a 3 percent technology fee. I wish I would have looked at my final receipt before I left. It seems a bit underhanded that it wasn't in my bill and I paid cash. We won't be going back. read more

Walked in to order a breakfast sandwich to go... walked up to counter and 3 people walked up and away, not one person said hello, asked if I needed anything, I don't think they even made eye contact. They just discussed an extra coffee that was in the refrigerator if the other person wanted it... then walked back in the back.... So I walked right back out the door!! read more

My husband and myself have been loyal customers for many years....our favorite entree is the the Fish Fry. We never have been disappointed with the food or service......until tonight. We brought in friends who have never been there before. 3 of us ordered the Fish Fry and the other person ordered the Chicken Parmesan. This Chicken Parmesan was horrible....the 2 pieces looked like flat black burnt hockey pucks and the 2 pieces of bread were burnt also. I wish I would have taken a picture! I blame the chef as to how this was cooked and presented, but I also blame the waitress for even serving this plate! How could she even look at it and say it was ok??? Yes, they did remake the chicken for the customer to take home...but this is definitely not the Summit Diner we have been to countless times ! The waitress looked at us like we were aliens. Believe me, I alway compliment the restaurant for its good service. This is the first bad review I have ever written. Owners...take a look at your staff...they represent Summit Diner. Today they set a bad example. Mistakes can be made, but not like this. Kathy Conrad PS..after reading other reviews that people have posted; I realize it isnt just me. Apparently nothing has ever been done to correct these mistakes...too bad. Looks like a lot of long time and loyal customers have been lost. Sad!! read more

Went with a friend for lunch. Staff came around twice for our orders but we were busy talking. We finally decided on the half turkey sandwich with salad and one with soup. The orders came very quickly. Hmmm, I have not had a green salad made with iceberg lettuce forever. It was average. The bread was toasted and the turkey was sparse. There are some better choices nearby for food. The atmosphere is nice and clean. Parking available. read more

Always love this place. But today they were playing Christmas music. It's September26th. It's too early for that. Asked server why they are playing that, she told me that the owner picked the channel and it's coffee house breakfast music. She even showed me the screen. It's Christmas music, no matter what the screen says. read more

Really angry at Summit. And after years of going there, we will not return. A few times a year they send a email to use on your cellphone. Usually they'd use the picture then have you delete, and put your name on receipt. We got this coupon a few days ago. Went to use this morning. They announced when we showed our coupon that we ow have to print and bring it in. I just received this coupon in the past few days. Went to use today and they wouldn't honor it, because not printed. I would've expected they would advise us how it works on for our next visit. And honor this one. They should've made a note on this email about the change. Manager (rude) no, we won't honor. So we complained to manager and left. Bait & switch? Not the way to keep loyal customers read more

The service is slow. Took forever for someone to come and take our order, asked for more napkins, never came and had to ask another service walking by. The food was not good. My Ruben had one side of the bread soggy and the other side hard as can be. I couldn't bite through the meat because it wasn't tender. My kid's chicken strips were over cooked and hard, no flavor and the fries were tasteless, ridiculous for a $9 kids meal. I will never come back here. read more

Ordered pouched eggs and hash brown with coffee. The eggs arrived with no runny yoke almost hard boiled. I mentioned this to the waiter who never came by to say how is it even though there are only 3 tables full at 9 am He told me I should have ordered my pouches eggs runny! I explained it should be runny in eggs Benedict. When I approached counter to pay. The women told me they don't get along with the cook and hate to go back and tell him thing. I mentioned I would go in and tell him poached eggs are runny. She just laughed. What a waist of $22 I will never go back. They did bring me one long egg barely poached. They must learn bad food looses business. read more
