The location is convenient and you can easily park around the restaurant. Inside is a little strange, doesn’t feel like a restaurant belongs in this space which adds some quirkiness, which in turn I liked.The breakfast plates were generous and tasty, gave off a home cooked kinda feel. The coffee was weak but I think it fits the diner vibe perfectly.Service was great, makes for feel like you’re at a local spot. We really enjoyed it here!
My Diner is a pretty good local spot for breakfast. Be prepared to come early or wait around 15-20 minutes for a table. I arrived on a Saturday at 9:15 and it was pretty packed. it was me so I sat at the breakfast bar top area immediately after entering.I had the Southie Omelette which came with potato hash and toast and choice of corned beef or turkey. I had the corned beef. It was good not amazing. Good enough portion.Service was pretty fast even though they were busy. The employees are running their buts off! They all work extremely hard to help you. Its of locals go because they called many people by their first names. Worth the visit for sure.
Absolutely delicious food (especially home fries). I love this place!
Such a great meal (very affordable), friendly staff, and good location! Sit outside if you can. We did go on a day when they were understaffed but the staff all work so dang hard. We were all so impressed. Good was amazing - i got pancakes, eggs, and bacon for like $8. Cant beat that. Be sure to give a great tip :)
Ive been going there for the last 4 years never had a bad breakfast or lunch!!
Diner prices and menu in bright and modern surroundings. What a great combination! I ate in the outdoor seating next to a green space with modern sculptures. The dining room was full, busy with happy people. I will definitely be going back.
Who knew that some of the best diner food in Boston was here! It is a little out of the way unless you are in the Seaport, but it is worth the trip. Even with the limited parking sometimes! The portions are sizable and the service exceptional.
Ham and pesto Omelet was delicious. Good portions
Went on a rainy Memorial Day 2021. Was pleasantly surprised. Small indoor area and outdoor seating. Too cold and wet to be outside. Nothing fancy but very tasty. Wait staff was very attentive. Got there at 9 and was seated immediately. Left just after 10 and there were 30 people waiting. P.S. Don’t sit next to the door.
Fast service, amicable, very good prices and excellent food (large portions). The eggs Benedict (3) were perfectly cooked and the bacon delicious.
Clean, consistent, and friendly. Out of all the diners in the area, this is the one that you can take people to not be concerned about the cleanliness. Pretty solid for the most part, all of your favorite recognizable breakfast items. Can’t really complain. It’s a diner. Don’t expect too much.
Excellent restaurant with fast friendly service. Parking lot on site. Easy street parking except Monday’s until after 1pm for street sweeping.
Love the new location and look. Same great food and atmosphere. Plus the prices cant be beat.A street diner is better than ever.
Such a cute diner! Great breakfast, excellent service, great prices! ( Wonderful coffee too!)
An unassuming little diner. It was busy when I visited and seemed very popular with locals (a couple of police officers, so I knew it had to be decent). Service was good, food was good, and reasonably priced. I walked out of my way to visit, definitely worth a try for breakfast or lunch if you are in the area.
Food is very good & you CANT BEAT THE PRICES !!! This will Definitely be a 1x a week place for me...
My Diner is an awesome place where you can feel like a southie and get some traditional all american cuisine.My favorite their french toast made with their own twist.But they staff is what makes this placeMy Diner
Wow what not to like in this place. The food and service is amazing a little slow but given the times is acceptable. Plus like I said the food its awesome.
The best breakfast.Servers are so lovely and awesome at keeping a very fast pace.
Nothing can beat this Diner! This is hands down the best place to get a home cooked diner meal. You definitely get a bang for your buck!
The place has great customer service with decent menu options. I had one of their breakfast plates. It was delicious.
Solid diner food in a cute little spot with nice outdoor seating area. The french toast is particularly delish!
Looked like most of the folks had a great experience. Ours was not. Either the waitress or the kitchen completely blew it for us.
Good fast breakfast, good service. Cops eat here, they know good reasonable food places. Line out the door when we left.
Pretty good food. Fast service but small space for the amount of people. They were in rush hour so I dont blame them.
Amazing brunch. Probably the best in Boston.
Horrible service and not busy at all. Should have gone to Muls. Dirty tables, filthy floor. Ordered a poached egg over 25 mins ago. Keep being told sorry its taking so long.
Excellent food and a very reasonable price. Will not be disappointed
Food was good but service took way too long. Seems as though they had a lot of to-go orders that were holding up the kitchen but breakfast at a diner shouldnt take over 1.5 hours.
Cool spot, good service. Food was good would definitely return.
This is my first time at my Diner excellent service clean place food was great I go there again and I will tell all my friends that love a good breakfast
Let me start off by saying if you dont get a waffle, youre wrong.Everything is amazing, and the staff are exceptionally good/friendly. I go here atleast once a week, and is my favorite spot to hangout during a snowstorm.
Great little diner! Big servings of delicious grub. We will be back. I would recommend this place to a friend.
Almost perfect; guys c’mon. The coffee! It tastes like warm dish water! So easy to fix. It’s the little things that make the difference.
Great food and great service. Worth the wait.
We had to wait over an hour to get a sit and a total of 2 hours to get our food in front of us. The quality of the food is okay and the prices are great but you can get the same quality of food and price for a quarter of the waiting time elsewhere.
Yummy food for a wonderful price!!
It wasnt busy. But the waitress was very slow. Food was cold. But other times it was good
Food is pretty decent, I had their French toast and ehhh I’ll give it a 6/10.
Of the true three diners in Southie, My Diner is my favorite. Its kind of hard to find the first time as its on the 2nd floor of an apartment building, but a large and clean space once you find it Cheap, quick, quality food, good service. Fresh fruit bowls are very fresh, blueberries and strawberries as opposed to the melon cubes you usually get at diners. Ive been about 5 times since living around here and have yet to have a disappointing experience.It can get packed during peak hours on the weekend so I prefer to go as close to opening as possible. There is an outdoor deck but unfortunately no seating out there, but they do open the wall door things on nice days. Also great playlist!
Very friendly service and huge bang for the buck.
First and foremost, I love this place! But when youre given the bill while eating, it says something!
The only negative was the limited parking.
Delicious food and excellent service. Such a great value.
The breakfast sandwiches were sufficiently filling. Got the linguica and egg with the add-on of cheese, and spinach, and a bulky roll and home fries. Also got a sausage and cheese on a bagel. And a ham and cheese on a bulky roll. The home fries were not overly oily which is good, plus they were well seasoned, you do not need to add any additional salt or pepper or ketchup. it was a bit crowded inside the shop itself picking up the food, and the staff were a little bit disorganized with their catering to take out orders versus seating people who are coming in. They do have their upstairs dining area open still with outdoor seating.
Kind of slow but good customer service and excellent food!
I really like the atmosphere and food.
Friendly atmosphere but didnt have the outdoor seating prepared. That would have made the experience better..the food was great
Good food and atmosphere with pleasant staff.
This was a nice hidden gem!! Not many places near my job in Southie waterfront, so when I found this place and the food was amazing, I got real excited. I had cheeseburger (which was huge and delicious) and buffalo chicken wings (also huge and amazing. I got two days worth of lunch from this. I did not take pics but I will definitely take some next time. Please Id youre in the area, stop on by. You wont regret it
Food is not that good and took an hour to come out and service sucked
Great place remember this was on A st & moved to the low #s ofDorchester st low prices excellent food.
Delicious food at a most reasonable price. Try the Southie Omelette! You will not be disappointed
While in a bit of a weird location (2d floor of a residential bldg), my breakfast was tasty and the staff was nice. Would go back.
My Diner is a real gem - delicious, cheap and generous with portions. In other words, everything a diner should be! Of note, it’s one of the only places I’ve found in Southie with an ample vegan brunch menu, which is perfect for when we have vegan family members in town. It’s a little tricky to find as it’s located on the second floor of an apartment building, but the signage is decent. You can also order take out from them!
Food is always great just like the entire staff i never leave dissappointed
Best breakfast Ive had in a long time.
Exactly what youre looking for in a diner. Long wait, but yummy food. (45 minutes for four) two people get seated much faster.
The food tastes amazing! The prices are a little high. Charging a dollar to add whipped cream or cheese seems like a bit much. The taste of the food makes up for that. I havent tried any food that I didnt like. I order from here almost weekly.
I ordered a cheeseburger. It was quick but not great. The waitress be checked how the food was or if I need anything else. Instead, while I was eating it the she just dropped the bill at my table. The bill was upside down with the total on the back of it for $8.50. But according to the menu, that burger was only $6.95+tax=$7.38. I went to the register to pay and when I asked about the price, she grabbed a calculator. Then she wrote $7.45.The service was mediocre and the food too. Plus I didnt appreciate what happened with the check.
Good breakfast
Good food. good prices. good service.
Food was on par for a diner and inexpensive. Main complaint was them not serving French fries on the weekends.
Only ate here once (takeout) so this rating doesnt have much weight behind it. I ordered a bacon egg cheese on a roll and it was cheap and very good but very small portion!!! I finished it 4 bites. Order two if youre hungry.
Great food!
Fantastic food! This place is the best breakfast around for miles!!
Tried the turkey hash, so good! I’ll be back 🙂
Best diner in South Boston. When they had to move after the old place was turned into condos the charm went with it. Amazing diner food and wicked friendly staff, this should definitely be your next breakfast destination in the area.
Good food and value. Friendly staff. Nice outdoor dining.
Pathetic customer service. called and placed a small breakfast delivery order ( one sandwich and one omelette) . I called from a location which is only about a 5MINUTE DRIVE. was quoted 45 minutes and realized after waiting over an hour, I noticed my food order was still not there. I called the diner and was told that i placed my order at an inaccurate time( placed my order at 9am and the woman who took my order wrote 10 minutes after the fact.). I was told the driver will be there soon he already left and i dont know what else to say . This establishment has OK food at best but Ive spent too many years working in the service industry to spend my hard earned money at somewhere that doesnt even understand basic customer service or has their staff give paying customers a oh well, deal with it indifferent attitude in regards to customer service.
The prices are incredibly fair. Service was good. If youre looking for a good little breakfast place (not a crazy brunch place like others in the area) I would definitely recommend.
Quaint, VERY popular for those on the know (many regulars already) who frequent this lively place for its delicious, ample portions of EXTREMELY reasonably priced food.Check the hours, 6:00amm to 2:30pm, breakfast and lunch.There is a counter, there is table seating, and a wait could happen.If you find yourself nearby or just want a tasty breakfast and can make your way (Red Line is closest, still a stroll), do.I may see you there.Bon appetite!
Great place to eat breakfast and lunch. There slogan is great food huge portions at diner prices . They werent lying . I ordered the farmers and everything was delicious and the portions huge . The service was great. .If Im ever back in South Boston Im coming back again . Two thumbs up from Austin Texas.
Great good, service, prices, and ambiance
Great food best waitresses on the planet
My favorite breakfast place in Boston! Great prices, delicious food. I bring all my friends who come to visit here. Highly recommend the eggs Florentine
Great place!
So this is a brand new place, but it might as well be a old place. The layout and the distribution of the kitchen just looked like it was in shambles. They had boxes up top they had things strewn about. There definitely was not much thought put into the design. It just was not a good look. The service was really really slow, but the food was actually quite good. I would probably only go back if I see the place is not crowded.
Before its current location I loved how the staff made me feel at home. Now with the view and space, the warmth and food are in a location that it deserves. The food is consistantly good diner food, from eggs and oatmeal to grilled Rubens and meatloaf. Put this 2nd floor, accessable diner on your go to list.
Great place for classic diner food! I highly recommend the turkey hash. It comes with two eggs, home fries, and toast. A huge breakfast or lunch thats worth the price and the service is great!
Good food!
Great as usual.
Great food, friendly staff, low prices, what more can you ask for?!
Delicious and cheap!
I came here for vacation and i was very impressed amazing food very tasty definitely recommend it:)
Good food. Great prices. Friendly service
Do not pass go unless you try the TURKEY HASH!! Best cheapest yummiest nicest breakfast money can buy!! Delicious home fries and coffee. Cant beat the price or the food.
Great food, great service, and very friendly staff. Always a nice visit here.
