He was kind enough to give me complimentary potatoes w my breakfast sandwich since I guess I opted out of the meat. But regardless still a much appreciated gesture. The younger gentleman that was waiting on tables was great as well. My biscuit was one of the best I have ever had eating out. Buttery, crispy on the outside, soft & fluffy on the inside. Last one I've tried else where tasted like it had freezer burn but this tasted fresh hot out the oven. My eggs were buttery smooth, not too over done, & I added hollandaise sauce & that was perfection. It was so dang good, I ordered the same thing but to-go for breakfast the next morning. And he continued to give me the complimentary potatoes which those were heavenly. The inside looks just like a blast from the past diner w some cool historical memorabilia. I also like the large windows w the tables against them for the natural light to come thru. I sadly live in a different state as I was just visiting but I will without a doubt return when I visit again. I can't recommend this place enough!

We wanted subs, and we got something we had to eat with forks because the bread was just so overwhelmed by the meat that you couldn't pick it up. And it lacked flavor.

A little salt and pepper, garlic and onion... not too much. But to taste. Or maybe some "Signature Sauces" customers can taste test first and choose? 3) let your identity be in the balance of flavor and something unique (Signature Sauces?), not how much meat you put on the bread. I don't want to just taste a ton of meat.

So the sign out front made the place seem pretty cool. Talking about the governor increasing tax rates with her phone number posted to call and complain. The building itself is nice, clean and well decorated. There were maybe 6 people other than myself and my guest. There were many many unused tables. Free refills on the soda which was possibly the best part of the meal. My guest ordered the prime rib meal, cooked medium and I ordered the chicken and dumpling soup and Mac and cheese. The soup came out first and it was decent, dumplings were good. The prime rib came out looking almost raw. I don't believe in sending food back to the kitchen because who know what they do to it then. The macaroni and cheese was straight out of a kraft box, granted it was of course tasty, it was upwards of 6$ where you can get a box for $1.25 at Walmart. The waitress was nice and attentive, she could only do so much given the main part of the restaurant, the food, was underwhelming to say the least. Needless to say I will not be returning to Sweeties, and judging by how few customers they had at 7pm on a Sunday, they won't be around long anyways. read more

If you like Sysco Food Products you will love this resturant. I have to say I have been hear a couple times,depending who is cooking wilb how r food will taste.(latin good is the best,run if china guy r white is cooking)the waitstaff is a mix. I had a very small framed lady who was "Awesome",NEVER let the Tall Ugly Smart*** she is slooow n dirty looking,small one with glasses worked at other diners n town so as to no surprise RUDE as usual.The owner "Rick,I was told, has a real nasty attitude and treats his restaurant like he is doing u the favor" He shames the gay community with his nasty arrogance.Rick we dont care that u have $ treat people with kindness. He treats customers n his staff very rudely. Back to breakfast it was OK, COLD! Couldve been better. So, if its possible that if everytime u come here let the skinny lady serve the latin cooks food. And pray the angry fag isnt there! read more

Owner is a complete ass hat. This place should be shut down simply for the way he treats staff and customers. Please pick another restaurant. Don't give your money to this disgusting human being. Every single one of his employees should walk out and find work elsewhere, no amount of money is worth being treated like that. Rick has little man syndrome and has to treat people like crap to feel better. Therapist and meds Rick. Go get help or sell. That's my freedom of speech.

This was our second time eating at sweeties Diner. Our servers name was Donna and she was absolutely wonderful. She knew the daily specials and was very knowledgeable as to the entire menu. Our food was fantastic that she had recommended. The atmosphere was pleasant and the place was very clean. The cook seems concerned about making sure everybody in the restaurant was happy with their meal. We did not get the Spanish Cooks name but him and Donna make a great team. We will definitely be back again and bring our family with us. read more

As you can see from most of the other reviews, this place is very hit or miss (mostly miss). And the owner is about as rude as they come. Maybe the owner should concentrate on improving his diner instead of local politics, where he is always causing some sort of drama. Just ask the Fort Pierce PD or Fort Pierce Utilities Authority.
