This place was much better than I expected! Actually I can't wait to go back. There is plenty of parking it's near the highway and located at the intersection of two main roads. The waitress was super friendly as was the lady who cashed us out. They have daily specials written on the sign when you first walk in there's plenty of seating mostly Booth style like an old school diner with really cool old photos up on all of the walls and an old legit style jukebox behind the counter. The menu is really good it's full it offers lots of different choices for people of all ages. I got the bacon cheeseburger with french fries and a shake. The shake was absolutely delicious I could go back for just that. It was super thick not overly sweet. It came in a cool metal cup with an actual metal spoon I mean who even gives metal spoon these days. The bacon cheeseburger had crispy edges crispy bacon a fresh tomato and a soft pillowy bun. French fries were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I also had some fried pickles with ranch dressing. The fried pickles were nice because the batter was really thin often times the batter's so thick you can't even taste the pickle this was not the case. I was absolutely thrilled with all of my food it was tasty, it was fresh and hot, the place was clean, and the service was friendly I would go back any day and I would recommend them to anyone. read more

Westside Diner is a true local favorite, and it's easy to see why. The menu is excellent, the prices are reasonable, and the service is consistently friendly and attentive. We love the charming 1950s decor, but it's the wonderful food and warm service that keep us coming back again and again. It's the kind of place that feels like home the moment you walk in. Highly recommended! read more

We love this place. The staff is great and the food is excellent. It's a classic diner setting with fun decor. You can't beat a breakfast special that comes with 2 huge, delicious pancakes, 2 eggs, meat and a juice of your choice for under $10! Lunch is also delish! read more

Settled into a tiny single person both during a busy lunch hour. This place felt like a classic diner. Staff flying around, filling my coffee and hustling. Neat spot for breakfast or lunch. Ambience? Plenty of it. Just don't expect privacy if you need to have a private discussion. Beef patties, bacon and eggs for lunch. It was ok. 3 Come for the feel of this place and great staff. read more

This place was a great find for breakfast. Huge portions at reasonable prices. They have a big menu with many choices. I had an omelette which was loaded up with cheese, meats and veggies. The food was made fresh and the service friendly. I would definitely come back. read more

In town for work, so as I always do... i search for local diners to patron. Service was fast & friendly! Typical diner type atmosphere that was comfortable. Pull up to the bar area or grab a booth. Definitely going back tomorrow ! I chose the breakfast sampler known as the "VERY SPECIAL BREAKFAST" All for $8.99 (not including drink/ coffee). I thought the pricing was incorrect for the amount of food you get. read more

Service was so trash today. They were so rude and disrespectful. I will not be returning and i work right around the corner. So messed up because i did like there food but they ended up giving us cold food and i found a hair under my coney. They didn't care at all probably because i am black, unfortunately. read more

Awesome resteraunt! I don't think the quality is to Gawk at, but in general the prices you can't beat for the food. I love how the staff recognizes costumers that come in often too. The resteraunt has its own community and its chill because of that. read more

Very good food and the fact this establishment has been around for a while speaks volumes about how well this restaurant is run. Service is definitely on point and restaurant is clean. Worth a try to or anyone who hasn't been here . Try the chicken and dumplings soup. You will not be disappointed. read more

Is it to much to ask for Someone to double check the order to make sure it's as Ordered? I guess so!! I made it clear twice I wanted grave !! Nope - thanks for ruining a $17 dinner ! read more

I went here for breakfast after going to the dentist last Thursday and hardly any one was there, the food was good, so was the service and ambience read more

I would really like to give this place five stars. My first two visits were great. But visit number three deserves negative stars. I bragged this place up to some friends and we met there for dinner. The place was not too busy. 7 PM on a Thursday night. Two of us ordered the burger fry and shake special, and our third guest ordered burger fry and soda pop. Our drinks were delivered within a few minutes. As we sat and enjoyed the shakes and visited with one another, it suddenly occurred to me that people had walked in, had their order taken, and food delivered well after we sat down. Approximately 45 minutes had passed since we ordered our food. I went to the hostess stand and inquired. The waitress immediately started typing our order into the system, she had forgotten to do so before. I get it, accidents happen, but what happens next is the reason for this review. I explain to her that I was not interested in waiting for the food to be cooked at this time and that we would be leaving, she then handed me a bill for the drinks. No "I'm sorry", No "let me make this right" No "the drinks are on us" No "we will make it up to you next time" All, or any of these would have made a difference. As of right now, I don't believe I will return. read more

Excellent courteous service and great food as always. We enjoyed our breakfast for dinner night out last week and especially enjoyed the 60s theme and music throughout the restaurant. Hot fudge sundae was amazing as well! We would return another time.. read more

LeRoy: Well it was refreshing and exciting to be in a real 50's diner. I had eggs and hash browns and sausage with Texas toast and jelly on it a half an inch thick. It was very tasty and very good - they even had some doo-wop playing in the background! Katie: The decor in the diner really makes you feel like you're stepping back into the 50's. The Mrs. K's chicken sandwich was really delicious. It came out on toasted bread with peppers and onions on it. It tasted kind of like grilled cheese and it was amazing. Caitlin: My breakfast was HOT and fresh just how I like it! The toast was crunchy, the potatoes were crispy, and the sausage was juicy! 5 stars all around!!! read more

I used to live right down the road from this place when I was in high-school. When me and my friends would get the munchies, we'd always come here. The food is great and very reasonably priced! You don't have to break the bank to eat some amazing food. Best homemade cheeseburgers in Flint. read more

Best chicken & dumplin soup! That's all I've really had from there, but it keeps me going back!

My go to breakfast restaurant. The ham for breakfast is better then any local restaurants I have found. Staff are fast and friendly. I go so much I'm almost considered a regular. . read more

They have amazing food and they're fairly cheap for the amount of food you get. Plus they have the best ice cream and shakes.

Service was excellent. They had people spaced out according due to covid rules. Will eat again when back in town read more

Literally my favorite breakfast spot in the area! I've been going here for 7 years and not once have I had bad service or a bad meal! It's always so clean and the staff is so friendly. The food is delicious. I've got diet restrictions and they always accommodate. The Turkey sausage breakfast is my favorite! read more

Great quaint spot--a true diner. The chicken and dumplings were spot on (I read that in another review and had to try them). The cheeseburger was cooked to perfection and the pickles were wildly fresh. read more

I love that they have a drive-thru. I used to love their fried mushrooms when I lived in the area. I moved away for years, and am back now. I no longer eat the mushrooms, but I get their chef salad quite frequently, and it's so good! read more

Make sure you tell them no meat. If they will listen to you. A smile goes along way and all there workers look like there angry.

This is the best place that I've ate at in a long time I give it five stars plus. I always get the coneys and my Diet Coke but the breakfasts are out of this world. Price is that reasonable the staff is excellent you can't go wrong. Thank you Westside Diner for excellent meals and staff and making all customers feel at home. read more

Westside Diner - a basket of fries and a sandwich - Diners Near Me - Flint, Michigan

My boyfriend and I ate here for the first time today. I can say, I do like the scenery, music, and the food was decent, but there are many more things that I'm not very fond of. My boyfriend found not one, but two hairs in his sandwich (one that looked like it wasn't from off the head). The service was alright up to the point where, who i'm guessing was one of the managers, started yelling and cursing at a customer with a child. You can find better food and way better service elsewhere; don't waste your money or your time. read more

I went to Westside diner on Friday with a friend of mine. The food was fine and I used my cash app to pay for the meal. Three days later my Cash app was billed $102 from Westside diner and my meal only came to $33. read more

Just a little place on Ballanger road, but what a little gem!! Real comfort food, the waitstaff is fantastic, and the food is consistent and a fair price!! I would give it 5 stars but it needs to be updated a little. Some of the booths have broken springs and are uncomfortable to sit on. read more

Wow! We met a friend here for lunch a couple of weeks ago and were pleasantly surprised. The Westside Diner is a Coney Island short order cook type restaurant. They are located nearly on the corner of Ballenger Hwy. and Miller Rd in Flint, Mi. Their water supply is from Flint Twp. Our party ordered a cheeseburger and fries with chocolate malt, Greek salad with a grilled chicken strip souvlaki and rice, and a bowl of chicken dumpling soup with a ham and cheese sandwich. My husband said that his chocolate malt was the best he ever tasted, and that is high praise from him! I was also pleased with the freshness and quality of the food as my salad was tasty, the souvlaki well prepared and yummy. Our friend loves the chicken and dumpling soup and sandwiches they offer. The prices are quite reasonable and you get good value for your money. We have already returned for a second meal and intend to make this our go to Coney Island when in the area. In terms of the decor, they have an Elvis theme going with memorabilia on the walls. Most of the seating is booths and they also have a busy take out window. The bathrooms need to be refreshed and updated. They have ample parking which is good due to the constant flow of traffic. The wait staff is very friendly and out going. They make you feel welcome! read more

This is my favorite place to eat, ever. The food is always fresh and cooked right. The prices cannot be beat. The dumpling soup is to die for. The burgers are fresh and are the best I've ever had in a diner. The Turkey club is amazing. I've tried just about everything on the menu and I am never, ever disappointed. It's also clean and charming, with the 50s decor and soundtrack. The waitstaff are always nice, and they know their regulars. I mean, it just doesnt get any better than here. read more
