Reviews of Uptown Diner
Anna Subialka
Really good food and affordable. The waiter we had was really attentive and came around frequently to check on us. Only complaint is he didn't give us quite enough time to look at the menu but he was still great. Delicious pancakes and eggs Benedict!
Lynx Cheam
Service is great, food servings are large, convenient location, shared lot makes parking easier for access. Clean establishment. Pleasant atmosphere. Delicious food. Would visit here again.
Olivia Fisher
Kind staff! Great food! Your feel good, home cooked, menu! Prices would seem steep, until you see the portions; you’re taking home leftovers!!! Adequate/easy parking! Must try!
Pictured: Country Fried Steak & Eggs (on top of about 2lbs of potatoes), an order of French Toast & side of ham.

For simple diner food, this is the spot!!! Recently went here twice and got the Caramel Apple Crisp Waffle both times and it did not disappoint. This particular waffle will smack your sweet tastebuds and land you a visit for flavortown for sure! I also got a plate of waffle fries to share as we also needed to get schmacked with a savory component. The cookies & cream shake is also sososososo good! Thinking of getting a shake? I really suggest the cookies & cream.
Best of all was our very nice waitress Lisabeth. You’re a lucky star if you get her as your server because she’s so kind and sweet! My friend and I got a shake to share and she even put it in two different cups for us which was a nice extra step for her to do!
On this visit, my friend got a plain waffle with some bacon and he was pleasantly content. First time I brought him there he got the chocolate chip cookie dough pancakes and was on cloud 9. Only complaint was that pancakes were too much, bur honestly that’s the best issue to have.
A good consistent spot to get some tasty dishes.
Nicole Steinert
Great service and of course love this amazing food!! I’m not sure if everyone does that but we love going to church after having some diner food!! Just love it so much!❤️
Christopher Z
Atmosphere and Staff Was Really Good. Food Was Average . I've Honestly Have Had Better Pancakes 🥞 In A Few Other Establishments.
Pete Boisclair
Service was wonderful - they were also willing to serve the pancakes the same way as the caramel apple waffle entree! I love the kamikaze style French toast too. Eggs were cooked well and my friend enjoyed his first time here too! Great walkable location - we were able to get seated right away too.
Calisha “Cali” Jackson
Wonderful hometown diner. Though busy we were given great service. The food was delicious and quickly came out. They clean up quickly. It's a busy place for breakfast so you may have to wait for a table to open up. We will definitely be back to try other things
Olivia 73captain73
Great food, fantastic service... Overall, a wonderful place to eat!!!
Tihomir Todorov
Wow... Simply wow.. For the money and the quality and taste of the food... Wow... Would come. Back again and again...

Very busy when we went on a Sunday. One thing that bugs me most about restaurants is when they don't come around and refill your water. That's really the only reason this review isn't 4 stars. The food was very filling though and solid breakfast quality. I ordered the biscuits and gravy.
Kassidy Lithgow
Great place for some breakfast. Got a combo meal with eggs, bacon and pancakes. Pancakes were amazing and HUGE. The food was really good and service was nice too. Prices are a little high for breakfast at $15+ a plate but not outrageous.
Docked a star because there was a “surplus surplus” added to our receipt for a few dollars. When we asked our server she said the owner added it on. It’s not enjoyable to have extra money added to your tab and not know what it is. If it is due to inflation then I would rather the menu prices reflect that instead of a random charge.
Carlos Cruz
Love the place! The atmosphere is perfect always. Been at this place few times after moving from Chicago, and it feels like home. Stuff is super cool & friendly. Very welcoming! Thumbs up big time! 👍🏽 …
Shania Balaski
It was our first time here , service amazing , the food outta this world me and my friends will come back . We ordered the meat lovers omelette 10/10 recommend , the country fried steak ! Uptowns diners country gravy is something to rave about !! Thanks for an amazing experience and shout out to the employees 🙂. Till next time .
Patrick Gallagher
Solid diner in a prime location. I would say they do sweet entrées better than savory, but you really can't go wrong. One caveat though is that their closing time is different for dining-in than for order pickup, and Google hasn't figured that out. Phone ahead.

I had French toast and cheese eggs but it was so good it made me drop some barz.... 😂 😂 Server was amazing as well!
Garyione Hollins
The late night spot with large portions. My server was very nice. The food is good.
Lori Leigh Fischer
The waitress was excellent great customer service. The food was excellent as well. I would recommend the uptown dinner to my family & friends❣️
Samy Vernet
An Uptown staple, and a MUST GO for anyone passing through the Uptown area. Decided to go here at around 1AM and was pleasantly surprised to find they were still open. Open to 11PM most nights, and 24hours on weekends, but this place is good for more than just a late night snack. Whether it's breakfast, lunch, or dinner, you're sure to find something to satisfy your craving. You'll find a wide variety of selections, from basic to more exquisite. Being one of the few late night options in the area, it can get a bit busy, so be prepared to wait. But the food here is definitely worth it!
Jon Hilgers
Same owner as Louisiana in St Paul, similar menu. Our server was super friendly, the breakfast was generous and delicious and the view (bustling Hennepin Ave) is engaging. What more could you ask for? Oh yeah, you can go in the middle of the night Thursday through Saturday. That too 🙂
Amando Komoda
This is a diner. It's not overly commercialized, it's not a franchise, and the people who work here aren't robots. The food is greasy and filling (in the best way), the coffee is strong, and the check is reasonable.
If you're locked out of your place and your POS roommate broke their phone and isn't home, you can hang out there as long as you need to. They'll even lend you a phone charger if you ask nicely.
Eric Hazenson
Awesome local diner. I've been going here since I was 12 and it has been and still is one of the best breakfast spots in MN.
A Johnson
Super quick and friendly service! The crab cake benedict wasn't super successful, but the pillowy soft caramel roll more than made up for that!
Todd Harris (Papa Bruce's BBQ sauces)
You never know what you're going to get in a good breakfast. However, this place had been consistent for years. Huge portions and decent prices. I no longer live in this area but when we do come to visit, we're coming here every time. Not to mention, the food arrives very fast after ordering.
Justin Donner
Perfect diner atmosphere! Coffee was topped off hot three entire time, food was fast and delicious and nobody judged me for dining alone. Great place to chill and write, get stuff done while sipping a cup and snacking on pie. It's on busy Hennepin, but they've got an actual big parking lot; huge plus on a frozen day.
K
Super nice staff and was quick. Apple crisp waffle was so good. Homey little place and it has parking. 10/10 would recommend
Louie R.P.
I used to love this place but I had a party of 12 ready to eat at about 9:15 pm. On a Saturday night But we were informed they stopped seating and were only taking to go orders. So we had to take our dinner party to Soho cafe. I'm not pleased with the new hours.
Jay Vandersalm
Me and the misses stopped for breakfast. She had a waffle and I had eggs, bacon, hash brown, toast. We split the hash browns. We barely got our order in and our food was served. Never had service so fast. The food was delicious and staff were pleasant. This will definitely be in our rotation.
Søren Petersen
Uptown Diner is a 5/5 experience! The food is great and the waitstaff is friendly. Highly recommend.
Souleymane Traoré dit soul
This place is great for some breakfast! Check out the hash browns and french toast. You will love them both
Daniel Stenzel
Wow this place is amazing! Friendly staff, and the food OMG! Caramel apple crisp waffle, and everything omelet. Big proportions and tasty!
Ryan Miller
This newer location is great. The service and food is top notch. This was my second visit since this location opened. My order wasn’t completely cooked to order this time, but fine after they fixed it. Overall a good place for some comfort food!
Tom Clay
The cook's staff was unbelievable! I sat at the breakfast bar and watched them work. Not only did they work hard but they were back there having a good time with other employees. The food was awesome and homemade.
Lee C. Paulson
A go-to for late-night breakfast food after drinks in the uptown area. But for those who go to sleep at a normal time, Uptown Diner is a cozy eatery for hearty comfort food. Servings are generous, and more than I can stomach in a single sitting. My last visit I had the tex mex..Or at least half of it. I ended up bringing the other half home to eat for dinner later that day. Friendly service, and a great choice to bring family and friends.
Sadie
Friendly and attentive staff. Delicious food! Would recommend this place for casual brunching.
Janeth Sanchez
The food is always amazing, the staff is friendly/effecient/awesome and the atmosphere is so fun! I've been there all hours of the day and have never had a complaint yet. The portions are quite generous so either come with an appetite or be prepared to take a box. Definitely my casual brunch go-to! Photos: the Uptown burger & waffle fries
LoNika Harris
I loved the variety of breakfast choices and I wasn't able to eat it all. (That's a good thing) I gave 3 stars because I didn't care for the hash browns. The taste and texture wasn't great.
Sam Smith
I ordered some eggs, hash browns, and bacon. The hash browns were not good. Bland and not browned well. I get better breakfast at Perkins
Alexander Demko
Best breakfast diner in the Twin Cities. Parking lot available. Food is priced fairly. The house options or favorites are dynamite and the eggs flourentine is to die for!
Miguel Cuba
I discovered this placed while taking my cat to the vet.. The first time I saw it.. I thought it was a regular place... But after i tried the food.. It was a place that I definitely needed to come back.. The hash browns are amazing... I usually get steak and eggs and they are perfect.. The restaurant brings me back to the 90s..
I give 5 stars to this place!!!
Shannon Amundson-Knittel
This was a great find this weekend, fast service great tasting food. Good Uptown beat. You need to stop in hungry or bring a friend to share your meal with.
Henry Gertcher
OMG the apple cinnamon waffle was fantastic. The pancakes are great too.
Jaime M
I had not stopped in this diner in several years and was in the area this past weekend. So glad I did. My server was lovely and very friendly. The crabcakes benedict was so yummy and the serving was so huge that I barely finshed half. I saved the rest for breakfast the next day. 😊
I can't quite call this a "greasy spoon" diner, but not upscale either. It is somewhere comfortably in between. There is definitely a flair to this place and it has character. I loved it and would recommend a visit when you're in the area.
Brandon Boone
An Authentic Diner that serves classic items with a twist. They don't skimp on portions, you're going to enjoy a hearty meal.
J Kardia
Holy cow, this was amazing. Really delicious and creative breakfasts, cozy diner atmosphere, and great service makes this a must visit.
I had the Cajun breakfast and it was phenomenal, though not for the faint of heart, it is very hefty.
Prices are reasonable, coffee is pretty great, and the seats are comfy, would definitely come here again.
Nissa Roberts
Lived in MN my whole life and can honestly say the BEST breakfast I have had and the best waitress. I had the Cajun eggs benedict. Cannot wait to return.
Anna Wuollet
Always a favorite. Delicious food, large servings that can be split between 2 people. Happy hour deal 11.95 for burger, fries, and a shake/malt from 3-11 is an amazing deal.
Jodi Keyes
I really like this diner. Cozy quaint and great service!!!
Cheryl Lopez
Absolutely delicious! Breakfast burrito was 5 stars with my husband! I had the best cooked over medium eggs! Kudos to the cook! Clean & pleasant welcoming atmosphere!! ☺️👍❤️ …
Lynn Choi Perrin
Uptown diner never disappoints. I dug into my cajun Benedict before I remembered to take a pic. It was nicely spicy, as promised. The only sad point was that we had plans all day so I couldn’t take leftovers. The price is on the high side but with plenty of delicious food.
Alice Golter
What a great place! Cozy vibes, cool art, clean seating (we saw tables swiped and squeaky clean minutes after someone left so they really stay on top of things), and sneeze guards up between booths as an extra bonus! Staff stayed masked and friendly, the people genuinely seem to enjoy being here as a team and as a staff.
This is classic diner food at its very best. My fiancé and I got the country fried steak and it’s the best we’ve had. The coffee is a solid cup of Joe and piping hot, the food was filling and delicious without being overly greasy or painfully salty, and the selection overall is great.
Definitely recommend for an early dinner when it’s quiet but even when it’s busy it’s a nice place to be and hear people chatter.
Bronte Alyce
Kind services and food is always good. Typical diner, but a good diner at that.
Juliette Chow
Great food but there were weird house "laws" that the waiters were aggressively serious about. Just don't bring outside food.
Michele DeFazio
Holeeeee Cow!! I've never been there in all the years I've lived in Uptown!! HUGE portions!!! Excellent tasting food!!!! Great service!!! I love it! My new breakfast joint, for sure!!!!!
Gina Blazanin
I got the gluten free French toast and it was amazing!! They had great food here.
Kristy Bierman
Huge portions we couldn't even finish. The Service was fast and friendly.
Ray Liu
Best food
Patti Kelsey
Cute place, good food, prices a little high. They are currently charging a 7.5 % surcharge on all orders.....
Rea M. (Yameyyyy)
Whenever I come here for brunch it is always packed and normally have to wait for 10-15 mins to be seated but the food here is worth it. I have been here numerous times and this is my favorite brunch spot! The staff is commendable too.
Audrey Lord
Always get great food and good service! Have had the chicken waffle benedict in the past and their burger, fries and shake special never disappoints. This time we had the egg white veggie omelette and their special turkey and pesto sandwich, yummy to both!
Tristan Klausegger
My first meal in Minneapolis when I visited for the first time in 2013, and a perennial favorite in the neighborhood now that I live here. I'm from Milwaukee, which has its own brand of 24-hour Greek family diners, with everything on the menu, and breakfast all day. This is the closest thing I have found in Minneapolis to that style of restaurant, and they even have a gyros omelet. Can be a little bit pricey, but the portion sizes more than compensate.
Emily Wafflespork
In my maddening quest to find the perfect diner, there are three categories I score diners on. These categories are:
1. Hours (if a diner is open 24 hours a day, they score full points - if they close at 2 PM, they get a point deduction.)
2. Diner aesthetic (Some diners, while amazing, just don't have the right aesthetic - they feel more like a family restaurant or random spot that sells food.)
3. Quality and Portions of food
I like to joke that every diner is "pick two." You'll have a great place that's open late but overcharges on food, or has huge heaps of food at 3 AM but just feels weird, or somewhere that's everything you want but closes by 3 on a Saturday. You can't have it all.
And then, I found this spot. I learned the truth: You can have it all.
This place has STELLAR hours. Open 24 hours a day on weekends, and 7-10 on weekdays is still pretty hecking good. Coming off of COVIDtimes and with staffing being an issue, I'm surprised their hours are that amazing.
The place is quintessential diner. Booths, counter, open kitchen, open windows, and it blends the uptown feel as well.
And best of all - the food is really good, reasonably priced, with ENORMOUS portions. I swear they gave my partner two meals for 14$. On one plate. I have no words for that.
Oh! And they have free parking. In uptown. Which is just - I can't - yeah, I really like this place. I'm gonna be back.
Ross Hanson
Went for breakfast with my son, ordered the chicken fried steak. The steak was prepared well but they are skimping on the gravy portion compared to what it used to be. My son ordered the classic eggs Benedict, his eggs were over cooked, more like hard boiled than poached & his hash browns were under cooked. All being said it was a disappointment compared to what it used to be like a few years ago
I'd Rather Go to Hell (Leola Grayhawk)
Phenomenal food. Delicious, came out incredibly fast, and perfect portions. Definitely recommend a visit
Gary Tazelaar
The food seems like it is declining in the last 6 months?? Loose a good cook? No supervision? Also, the front sidewalk has trash everywhere???
Bryan Harmelink
Closed to make way for a Columbia store... which will sit next to the Northface store. Yeah.
Jason Hansen
Good service and atmosphere but the food was a grease bomb.
Sophia Wilson
Simple dining. Great go to when I'm craving breakfast at random hours
L.D. Ayers
Friendly staff and good diner breakfast options . Wish I had known how big the portions were. My boyfriend and I could have definitely just shared 1 plate.
Stephan Buttweiler
Uptown has everything that you would expect from your local diner. The highlighted menu options are their unique twists on American classics. It's a higher end diner, so expect to spend $20.00 a person, however it is worth it once you see the portions served. Had the biscuits and gravy, and one of the burger and fries options the last couple times here. And they are open 24 hours a day. Due to COVID and staff shortage the dine-in option may be restricted to certain times, carry out and a third party delivery service are available during these times. Hope you enjoy this spot as much as I have.
Bill Tanner
Always great to dine in here. Love the food. Keep up the good work.
Dayna “Artbyladyd” LadyD
Food is okay.
Cleanliness meh. Yeah, table was dirty.
Prices higher than i feel they should be for comparisons.
Service was good but unfortunatly i think we got there on a shift change so super slow to start with...once he did come he was great.
Ive been here a few times because of its location.
I think I'll wait another year ir two if i do this spot again.
PAISLEY PRINCESS
My daughter and I went here for dinner. We were the only ones there so we were seated and were served quickly with friendly service My daughter had the French toast and egg meal, and I had the hamburger…And they were GOOD. The hamburger was flavorful, juicy, and a lot…I couldn’t finish it all. My daughter said her French toast was the best she’s had. We’ll be back!
Nicole Wismer
It was ok. Heard good things about the place. Went there and it was take out only. Guy working was a bit rude... until he saw his tip. Then he was nice lol.... Shakes were phenomenal. Pancakes just so so. Huge but burnt. I wanna check it out again, when I can eat in though. I see the potential for greatness definitely....
Teri west
Great food and lots of it! Serving are huge. Wait staff friendly.
Tyron Searight
Whenever you're looking for a quick meal with a convenient locatit's a convenient location great staff and good food this is the place to go
Cindy Inman
Uptown Diner has many unique food items on their menu. They serve sweet potato tator tots and a catfish sandwich. A must try diner to experience some different dishes. The parking lot is enormous and they have handicapped spaces available close to the entrance. 😊 …
David Blake
A huge diverse menu, and some of the best chocolate chip pancakes I've ever eaten. Their iced coffee is fantastic.
Alex Roma
I love this place. The food's great, the vibe is retro and laid back, and everyone there is always super nice. I host my book club here once a month, and they're always so accommodating.
A4NQT
The hashes are amazing but the entire breakfast menu is pretty pricey.
Ywh Krgb
Food was ok, I ordered the gyro omelette and it was too oily for me. Didn't even eat half of it. The toast was good
Celeste Schuppler
Fast service, good breakfast. Plenty to eat. My hash browns could have been a tiny bit more cooked, for my liking.
James Terry
Great tasting breakfast, huge portions, friendly staff, and low prices. Why aren't you on your way already????
Riley Thornton
Delicious sourdough french toast. All day breakfast. What's more to love?
Ray Lindner
Had a couple hours to kill between hockey games at Parade Ice Arena. Great food, friendly and attentive staff. Breakfast served all day, recommend the Carmel & Apple waffle!
Jerry Hinrichsen
Food was great. The waffle fries were awesome as well as the cheese steak sandwich.
Truman Gerholdt
Holy large plate of delicious food!!! Mike got the Tex-Mex and I got the Minnesota Biscuits and Gravy. Huge amount of food! Be prepared to go walk 26 miles after this meal. The staff was perfect. A great diner for brunch. Go here!
Nicole Beyer
This is one of those places you wouldn't think would have amazing food but it really does! Wow! I can't say enough about this place! If you want a great breakfast, this is where you need to go. They had mostly breakfast food but they had burgers and sandwiches as well. I had the grilled.cheese on sourdough and it was perfect! Crispy bread, melty, cheese. Perfect
Jane Rasmussen
Had a wonderful experience here, server was great, it was clean food was wonderful, large portions one meal is honestly enough for two.
Yesenia Marquetti
Can’t believe this place was open on NYE—gotta give it up for the hardworking crew in there churning out orders back to back!! If no dine-in is available, I recommend you order via a mobile app to get your food faster. I was pleasantly surprised the Cuban sandwich was bomb, usually the pork is dry/no seasoning, but someone in the back knows what’s up.
Larry Davis
Very friendly, if like Benedict style eggs they have interesting options
Jake Hildebrand
The meals are a little bit expensive, but you get what you pay for and more! Large plates and great food. The pancakes were enormous, hanging off the plate.
Andrew Fyten
Local uptown staple. Great menu and great service. I love the breakfast options, so many choices. Good lunch options as well. Gets busy, because it's so good.
Clay Negaard
Been here a few times now. The service is good and that's the 3 stars. Ordered a caramel roll that was cold and stale. I had a omelet and it was okay but over priced. Went there with a friend and she had the b&g which she said was cold so probably won't be going back
Gavin Ramsdell
Had the crab cake bene. It was fine, nothing to special. Hash browns are over hyped.
Kes Posey
Great for a late night diner experience! The staff is always super friendly.
Tia Meyer
Awesome service! Food tasted great. A little on the spendy side but worth it.
Nataly Perez
Very nice place, very good taste in Ford and the waitress very helpful
Adrian Mitchell
This is a wonderful place to go. The food is very filling and the portions are very large. The apple cinnamon waffles had two full apples worth of cinnamon slices and looked amazing. The chocolate chip cookie dough pancakes were the size of the plate. You can upgrade your pancakes and waffles to have sides for a reasonable price. . I would highly recommend.
They also have well crafted malts.
Amber Diva
I absolutely LOVE the spicy Cajun Benedict and Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Pancakes ❤️
John Wickenhauser
Excellent service, variety of menu choices. Large portions for breakfast. Very pleased.
Steven Klankowski
Ooh my goodness. Eggs were good, but that chocolate chip cookie dough pancake….just look at it!!
Heaven Muehlhauser
Great food! Huge portions for a good price.
Mario Aviles
Came in while it was slow. The server was great, and the food was quick and tasty.
Jayson Smart
We had a great lunch, not having visited since before the pandemic. The food was quite excellent. I had a Philly Steak sandwich that was about as good as they come. The bread they used was particularly good. I had sweet potato tots on the side, and they were cooked perfectly. My party ordered hamburgers which were also nicely done, along with waffle fries. What was also impressive was how clean everything was, and they clearly were taking COVID precautions seriously. Before being seated we were asked to write our name and phone number, in case any contact tracing would be required. Also, it looked like they had done some remodeling with new flooring and upholstery everywhere. It was a nice experience with great food, and being in a place that clearly cares about their staff and customers. Nice job Uptown Diner!
Leah DeBruycker
This was our first visit. I had the country fried steak breakfast and it was really good. The hash browns were made from fresh potatoes - so good. Service was quick and attentive. It was not very crowded at 8am on Friday for breakfast. Would definitely visit again.
Rob Dwyer
This is a cool spot but make no mistake, it's not the old Uptown Diner vibe at all. The food is good, service is good, but everything is "sanitized" and I don't mean in a COVID way. The character and dive feel of the old Uptown has been replaced with a shiny joint acceptable to the 'burbs crowd. It may be unfair to level this comparison but if they're gonna carry on the name, I wish they had carried on the atmosphere.
Smatthew
The uptown burger and waffle fries are AMAZING
gonzalo jimenez
Recommend it. Love it Big pancakes
Justin G
I ate here once. Good food for a good price. A ten dollar bill could feed one person. I removed a star because of the requirement of showing a COVID vaccine verification card when another diner in the same city did not have such a requirement so clearly such requirement was not enforced by any ordinance.
Paul Newman
Great place for any time of the day. Huge servings, great staff.
Ron Thomas
Good food, and huge portions, great staff. I was amazed at how quickly the food was served.
Nicole Wismer
Not as amazing as I've been told it is. Got there and they only had take out avaliable. So we had to eat in our car. It was decent. Nothing I couldn't get at Perkins though
Yoselyn Luna
The food is really good and the portions are a good size. No matter how busy they are, customer service is great. We haven't had any bad experiences.
Darrell Adams
Always pleased with my experience here. If you love giant portions this is your spot! It is really hard to get a table sometimes (especially breakfast) but that usually means great food...and it is.
Thomas Gregg
It's legit good. Greasy spoon delicious breakfast. After multiple visits, I strongly recommend it...I only order breakfast items and can not vouch for lunch/dinner offerings.
Mary Jane
Just awesome!
Michelle Jackson
The portions were large, but wasn't too crazy about the waffle. Kinda heavy, not at all like a Belgium, very blah taste with granola or something instead of real apple crisp. The whip cream, apples were good on. I tried the hashbrowns and carmel roll and they were both good, nothing to rave about but no complaints either.
Michael Shields
A true Uptown classic. Great service and consistently awesome comfort food. Unless you are a NFL lineman, their portions are so easily split for 2 especially breakfast. Uptown has Unfortunately experienced many challenges during the past couple of years, however no challenges with the staff and food at Uptown Diner. Enjoy!!
Monty Fagnan
I love this place have been here several times now. The portions are large quality is super. The service is always friendly, upbeat, and speedy. We have asked the staff for there recommendations, they have never been wrong. The Uptown Diner is now on my list of regular places.
Brandon Hanson
Tried for the first time late on a Friday night. Inside dining was closed by then, but got a chicken philly sandwich with sweet potato tots and a chocolate shake to go, sat outside on their blue tables and it was very good. Service was friendly and had an accurate wait time. The sweet potato tots were very tasty as was everything else. A great place for a late night dinner or snack when everything else is closed.
Winter L
Good "American" style food and their cornbread is amazing!

Classics are excellent. Parking is a bit rough, but the food makes up for it. Grab a cinnamon roll before they're gone. You'll need a nap if you eat a caramel roll.
Royyana Preston
Hasbrowns we're burned... Omelette was great. Service was good.
LaToya Hayes
I only give 3 because I ordered a country fried steak meal because they were out of t-bone ect. The food came nice and hot, but I didn't know my gravy would have pork in it. 😢 …
Jim Piersol
It's nice to eat at a true diner and not at a Denny's. For one thing the food quality is much better the prices are reasonable and the staff is very friendly and proactive to any need (s). I've had both breakfast and lunch here and I've never been disappointed.
Msjj820 Johnson
Great service and delicious food.
Jeff Jasper
Great food, clean bright and friendly with numerous help serving tasty food in the mid price point.
Alix Pelarske
Delicious and big portions. It's like 2 meals.
Nick Schubert
Food here is solid at a good price considering the healthy portions. The woman who checked me out for my pick up order was really great. So great I want to come back again and again.
a Dom
It was good!
Gregory Gonzalez
I ordered 2 Cajun omelettes with Andouille Sausage and 2 coffees. Price tag: $51 !!! I enjoyed the meal, but come on man. Way overpriced. Major bummer.
Ray Gifford
I can't say enough good. This was my first visit here and it almost makes me wish I lived near this place.
This was the BEST, yes the BEST omelet I've ever had. Decent coffee, really good hash browns and sourdough toast with the best butter. Good service.
My only gripe is that I would have liked a little better social distancing. The tables are too close together for comfort during covid.
I'm only in town for a few more days and they're not close to my client or hotel, but I'll try to get back here one more time.

Usually, always, an incredible experience. Have been going here for 25 years. But...I brought my besfriend here last week, it was her first time, and I was underwhelmed. They changed the hashbrown cut so they're thicker, they were not crispy as requested, the eggs were bleh, I had to ask for items missing from my meal. I will keep coming here but I'm curious what happened in the last 6 months that changed, cook? mgmnt? Vendors?
Roshan Rajkumar
It had been years, but returning to the Uptown Diner was solid. Lots of choices in the menu. No pretense from staff or patrons. Reasonable prices and great quantities of breakfast eats. No one minded our active and vocal 18-minth old. Our server, Tommy, was quick to check-in, get orders, suggest options, and get us anything we needed, included extra napkins and silverware. Love the large, free parking lot. And really enjoyed an easy-going brunch after Mass.
Erica Nickoloff
I had the crab cake eggs Benedict and it was one of the best breakfasts I’ve ever had. I’ll definitely be back and getting the same thing. Service was quick and friendly. Our whole table had a great experience!
Jonathan Scherkenbach
Been here numerous times. The food is amazing. The portions are massive and the food is always good! The service is hit or miss. Sometimes it's on point, and others its slow. The cost is a little high also.
Crissa Pope
Service is great! Crab cakes benedict had a nice crisp outside. French toast was seriously loaded with blueberries and nuts. Great value and atmosphere. Quick and yummy breakfast.
Maria Cvar
This was my first time here! The waiter was very kind and always made sure we had a full cup! The food was good, I told my friend the oil needed to be changed for the item she had on her plate but it was very delicious though. I would love to go here again with service like this, I do think there are some things within the restaurant that need repairing like seats and such but very pleasant atmosphere here. Thanks!
Sarah Clayton
The food is incredible with fast but friendly service. The food is a little pricey but you definitely get your money’s worth in quantity and quality. This is always the first place I recommend to someone if they tell me they’re visiting or live in Minneapolis. I wouldn’t change a single thing about this place!!
Erica Harris
This place is always packed😩..
Which to me is a great thing..😌..
Finally got a chance to eat here and I will say I can see now why..😳
The portions are huge!!..My goodness it's worth the wait..But the best part of this place is not the food...Ms Jonell is an angel😍..I never met her before but after today I am convinced she is a truely a angelic being..
Keep her please😵!!
Other people should make it a point to connect with her and learn how to operate out of kindness and respect!!!☺🙏🏿
Lisa York
Excellent food and very friendly service. Looks like the old style dinner some of us grew up with and even nicer!
Christina Webb
Love this place! I've been getting breakfast here often, love the Cajun breakfast, kamikaze French toast and today I had the fluffiest, most delicious pancake 🥞 thank you! Service is always excellent …
Scott Hocker
Awesome breakfast experience. Ginormous pancakes. Scrumptious overpacked omelette and the kamikaze waffle was loaded with deliciousness. Some of the best farm fresh eggs I’ve ever tasted
Caitlin Fitzgerald
Not fancy but great diner food, a usual pick for me

Michael Bryant
Great place to eat. Breakfest all day
Bryan Barth
Good food at a good price, quick service
Steven Ostling
The diner so nice we visited twice. We went late at night for some dinner and a milk shake, and then came back first thing in the morning for breakfast. The food was spectacular and our service was wonderful. Our server was super sweet and she wrote down a bunch of recommendations for things to do and places to eat. She even gave a sample of banana milkshake Wich was amazing. We'll def be back the next time we're in town.
Steve Chaney
Nice place, the country fried steak and eggs was great. The only downside was the hash browns were soggy and way under cooked, and it was freezing cold inside the building. Other than that, good place, will eat there again.
Jordan Anthony
The first thing I noticed when I entered was the cleanliness of the restaurant. It was very nice. The employees treated me with great respect. They able to execute my special orders with out complaint and with a nice attitude
Along with the great staff, the food was beyond my expectations for the size of the place. The portions were Phenomenal size for the price. I ordered the everything omelet with other ingredients from their Minnesota omelet.
Delicious! I also ordered their waffle Kamakazi style which comes with a very liberal amount of banana, blueberries, pecans.
I haven't had a late night breakfast that great in quite a while. I highly recommend Uptown Diner to anyone who lives by and has not visited there yet and to friends and family visiting, or people and people of business just passing through.
ebonie cleaver
Always provides excellent customer service, I get my food within 10 minutes and it’s always delicious! I go there every Monday now to treat myself and get out the house. Love this diner!
John Brennan
Great aesthetic and pretty good breakfast food
Isabella Bridges
My grilled cheese was a little dry but I still enjoyed it as well as the staff and atmosphere.
Angel spaise
Been going here for a very long time and never disappoints always good!!
Sadie N
Been going to Uptown Diner since I moved to the metro in 2004. The food has always been amazing. My personal fave is the crab cakes Benedict, but my partner gets the club sandwich a lot and the bites I've had of that were also incredible!
Great omelettes, great burgers.
Staff can be abrupt and not always crazy friendly, but the food is so so good!
Jonathan Roberts
Decent diner food. Prices are about 10 percent too high.
Michael Scrivner
I misread the Facebook post and didn't realize that 10PM - 7AM the dining room is closed. That was on me (just ask my wife...), so rating is then just on the food I ordered to go.
I got the kamikaze french toast and a side of scrambled eggs. After a night out of drinks it was delicious, even after waiting to get home to eat it.
The kamikaze french toast comes with A LOT of toppings - specifically blueberries and pecans. More than enough for the two slices of french toast. Maybe too much, hah. The french toast was great. The eggs were eggs, nothing special here.
The hostess was nice but we only interacted for a minute so I can't speak much to the normal service.
Nicholas Moore
Uptown diner is my new favorite breakfast/brunch place. The food is phenomenal (I had their Carnita Benedict) and it came out quick! The service is superb as well. The waitress my friend and I had was lovely, charming, and upbeat. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone and everyone.
Zack Storch
Always a favorite in Uptown! Their speciality pancakes like the cookiedough one are over-the-top fun, but they really shine with mastery of the basics. I especially like the French toast, extremely flavorful! Very friendly staff, too.
Jeet Sausen
Food was delicious and the service was great. Serving staff was friendly and helpful, too.
Kaku Ephraim
Great diner to eat at, especially after a night of hanging out with friends. Food is sure to fill you up with their giant servings. I have always been able to finish their plate, but it has never not been a challenge. The taste is great. Very delicious. The food came fairly quickly as it usually does even when the place is packed full of people. Really enjoyed eating there at 2:30am and going straight to bed with the itis.
Eric Miller
I actually think that I had the best breakfast in my entire life here. I'm not joking. Their breakfasts are so excellent and reasonably priced it's crazy. I was in uptown visiting my daughter who lives there and she knows how much I love a good breakfast so she recommend the Uptown Diner. So glad she did. Staff was super friendly and the food outstanding. The portion sizes are rediculess so you might want to split a meal. I had the chicken fried steak and eggs and it was exceptional. Coffee was excellent too. So if you are within 25 miles get over there. I guarantee you'll be thanking me for the recommendation.
Hershey Lima
We had the sweetest server, impeccable! But my mom's hash browns were under cooked and she hates to complain. So, I didn't realize this until too late. My omelet was all good
Coffee Cup
I went here with my sister for the first time. The bulk of their menu was breakfast. There were so many options we both joked about coming here again to try many of the options. The price of the food was reasonable considering the huge portions. I was a little surprised that the coffee was not free refills. My sister and I shared a couple of cups of coffee which was almost expensive as one of our meals. I would highly recommend people stop in and try the food it was delicious but be careful when ordering multiple cups of coffee
Joshua Mills
Amazing food. Really fun place. Get the catfish breakfast, you won't be disappointed. However, I've never had a bad thing on the menu. I'm new to the cities, but it seems like an Uptown institution. Also.. Best hash browns I've had anywhere.
pat racette
Staff was great. The food was excellent. Prices were reasonable. Will be going back soon.
Anna Payne
Holy Cow. This place came on a recommendation as somewhere that would be open in the middle of the night as we were on our way to the airport for a super early flight.
We expected mediocre diner food, but instead were met with delicious, unique dishes.
The omelet was incredible. Light, great quality, perfect amount of food. The sausage that they used was great!
The malted waffle was amazing. Their caramel apple topper with the perfect pairing, and the granola was perfect for texture.
The staff was super friendly and clearly cared about quality. Definitely recommending this place to our friends!
tina c
Great diner breakfast. Good portions for a good price. Nice wait staff.
Meghan H.
My boyfriend and I eat here often. The food isn't anything fancy, typical diner stuff, but it's done very well. The service is also very good even during the busy breakfast times. Unless you get lucky you will likely have to wait for a table but we've never waited more than 10 minutes or so. I love taking friends and family here.
Megan Romero
Absolutely love this place. Through the years it remains consistent for phenomenal food, gigantic portions, average prices and superb service.
My most recent visit I ordered my favorite breakfast "The Cajun Breakfast" and Mai was my friendly & efficient server.
Great to visit a familiar place when I come into town. I never leave MN without making a stop at the Uptown Diner. So many great memories and awesome dining experience. Keep up the great job!
Ms. Byers
I was able to get a gluten free vegan meal here. I had the avocado toast with no egg. It could have used sea salt , lime and red onion in the avocado spread but over all it was good. Dani the waitress was Excellent on customer service. Enjoyed the meal even more. Thank you Dani!
Sabin Keller
Always a good spot for diner food
briana stamper
This place never disappoints. The only negative thing is if you plan on going after the bar/club it tends to be quite a long wait pretty often. But in my opinion it's worth it. Food is delicious and affordable. Get the cajun breakfast if you're feeling gluttonous 🤣 They also have great options if you're eating more clean. Enjoy! …
Alex Sneed Miller
Lots of breakfast options and free parking. Would not recommend the cookie dough pancakes even though I really like that kind of food. It was a little dry. I would try some of the other stuff on the menu next time. I was debating giving this review 3 stars instead of 4, but the free parking is a nice touch.
Andrew Maertens
Great service, and excellent food. My girlfriend and I got a meal here earlier on a Saturday night, and we were very pleased with our experience. The owner greeted us at the door, and the great service continued from there. Near the end of our dinner, I asked to get a to-go cup for my coffee, and the waitress gave me a large cup full of fresh coffee. We couldn't have been happier with our visit.
Michael Birkel
Fast service and amazing breakfast food. Check out their omelettes if you're hungry! Biscuits and gravy were also fantastic. Ate half my friends when he got full and was worth it
Brooke
Fantastic service and food. $11.99 for a Cheeseburger, Fries and a Shake! Fabulous!
Nicole Vanderheiden
Great diner food with healthy options, and malt shakes (my favorite!). The staff were so friendly from the moment I arrived! They definitely give off the vibe that everyone is welcome. My kids enjoyed the activity place mats and they were able to order for themselves right off the simple kids menu.
Steve Deal
Always like going here for breakfast. Typical Midwest American menu. Great friendly service. Was a group of 6+2 toddlers. Food served timely and fresh. Family together eating a delicious breakfast and drinking some coffee, what’s not to like. Very accommodating with our 2 toddlers.
JJ Jackson
Only giving 4 because the gluten free bread should be toasted with mayo not butter. Need to preserve moisture so it doesn't fall apart. Try it it's a game changer.
Tay&Matty Quiel
This place has great food the interior is very clean as well as the outside of the restaurant the atmosphere is amazing they have music playing they have boots or seats there is parking and the place is usually busy every time I have been there. The service has always been fast and the employees are very nice and have a great attitude. The service is always fast and seating most of the time is seat yourself. They offer cash pay or card pay.
Bri Trees
The chocolate chip cookie dough pancakes were to die for
Ashley Slayter
The food here is usually really good but the service from the recent hostess makes me and my bf not want to deal with the service here. On separate occasions and for different food, we have been told something was out or frozen and that we could choose something else. However after asking for a different option, she tells you to instead take home what she already bagged (which is not what was asked for). Don't bother asking what someone wants if you're not going to listen.
Scott S
Kind staff! Great food. Huge portions! Pancakes, philly cheese steaks, and fries.
Momin Khan
Uptown Diner has been a friend's group favorite for decades now. The flavor and quality of food has been consistent and cravable.
Yogi
Ordered a salted Carmel roll and never got it. Food was hearty and flavorful though You get a generous amount of hash browns so bring your college kid like appetite. I like the smooth taste of the traditional corned beef hash. I would have given more stars but the server was very unattentive. We Would still eat there again.
LA Olejar
I tried the Cubano Sand. It came with a cup of homemade chili all the fixings and a cornbread muffin. It was AMAZING!Three of us ate for a little over 40.00 and our server was the best ever . A hidden gem in my book! I will definitely go again.
jennifer lee
Big portions. Food was good. Got their cold press which was really strong and good with a smooth finish. Not bitter at all. Only thing was some of their tables weren't cleaned so we had to wait for them to clear our table first.
Peter Johnson
This is an outstanding place to get a standard diner-style breakfast. Prices are moderately high, but portion sizes make up for that. They have plenty of seating and also have a counter to eat at in front of the kitchen for that full diner experience. Gluten free options are noted on the menu as well
Laura Cruz
Great service, waitresses/servers/ hosts were genuinely friendly. Food was put out fast and cooked to perfection. This was my first time coming to this establishment with my partner! We especially enjoyed the El Cubano and Crab Cakes Benedict!!!
Vic W
I love this place! Their service is exceptional, even AFTER THE bar rush (which, bless their hearts, they have the patience of saints)! My personal favorite is the crab cake benedict! The prices are very reasonable and you get a TON of food. If you're looking for comfort food, the uptown diner is definitely the place you want to go. Parking is conveniently free and on-site, their lot is quite large. They will happily take an order over the phone for you to come and pick up. Whether you're traveling from out of state or you're a local resident of Minneapolis, the Uptown Diner is certainly a place that you need to check out at least once in your life! (P.S. their waffle fries are delicious!)
xxcr-ativityxx
Great food, although a little on the expensive side. Staff is very friendly and does a great job.
Brent Morris
Service is great and the food was amazing.
alfredo villalobos
How fantastic is it to go somewhere at 10 pm when everything is closed and pop into Uptown Diner with your kids and have the best service and food for the whole family. Breakfast, lunch and dinner cooked to perfection in a timely manner. So far one of my favorites places in Minnesota now. 2 thumbs up Uptown Diner
Reed Saunders
Excellent service, but subpar food. The pancake seemed to pick up some fishy taste from the griddle, the bacon was burnt to crumbles in spots, and Italian sausage in the biscuits and gravy is an unconventional and arguably bad choice. Hash browns and eggs were pretty average. The waitress, however, was extremely friendly and accommodating. The experience was almost worth it for her alone. Coming from a frequent patron of diners, this one just misses the mark.
Wendy Tielens
Always a favorite place of mine and my husband's to bring out-of-town visitors. Good menu and scrumptious pancakes! Also great for eggs, etc. I've never tried the lunch menu because I am so in love with their breakfast, but other people I've dined here with had no complaints about salads or burgers. Only things I dislike are the confusing/ever-changing hours and the ala carte menu is too pricey. That being said, I will continue to bring visiting guests looking for a great breakfast and/or brunch!!
Wenn Townsend
Great spot to grab a huge breakfast or a giant burger and milk shake!
Melanie (melatonin)
I lived in uptown for 2 years and this place became my favorite restaurant. Staff is great, atmosphere is very nice, and all the food I've had there is incredible. There's a special from 3:30pm to 11pm where you get a burger, waffle fries, and a milkshake for about $9. I've brought a lot of friends here for that. It's a must try if you like diner style breakfast and burgers.
Andrew Boerema
Amazing late night food, open late, understanding staff. The food is good, classic American fare without frills. The portions are healthy and everything is cooked to perfection. The staff is very kind and puts up with all the people that come in to get something in them after a long night of partying.
It’s open late, but the wait increases sharply at 1:30. The service is also pretty fast.
Troy Stewart
If you like good American food carmel or cinnamon rolls, you don't want to miss this great diner!! Great Fun location & place to people watch while you enjoy your food. Be sure to try the malts!!
Matt Sjelin
First time visitors from Duluth. Food got to our table shockingly fast. Great service. Portion sizes are huge, so come hungry or prepare for leftovers! Minnesotan omelette was awesome, if you are a wild rice and mushroom fan!
Matt Dulgar
The Uptown is my favorite diner! The food is always good and ranges from great breakfast fare to outstanding burgers and malts! The Uptown always seems to be lively, but never too noisy or unruly even after bar close. The staff are amazing, making you feel right at home without being patronizing, just friendly and helpful! The diner has the traditional counter with stools, spacious booths and tables with plenty of space and a relaxed vibe, so one feels welcome to stay and chat with friends for hours over coffee without feeling like you're overstaying your welcome!
Shawn Clifford
Now this place is one of the best breakfast food joints I've ever had. They have it all, and position size is still large and gooood. Each item you can find reasonable prices right in your backyard. I've never had an issue ordering food or wuth staff. Yes, its a little odd you seat yourself sometimes, but I think thats what makes this place a good eat. Don't forget thats its outside a bus stop location and a parking lot with PLENTY of spaces.
Leisha Greenlee
Absolutely love this place! The selections of food are unique. The people here are so nice and attentive. I've never been disappointed in the 4 years I've been coming here. Im always suggesting Uptown Diner and have never heard bad feedback. Love the gyro omelette, Minnesota omelette, all of the eggs Benedict dishes, the chocolate chip cookie dough pancakes are so nummy. I've had a few other dishes and have always been very satisfied. Love it here!
Yvette Dizon-Gist
The food was pretty good. My Cajun omelette was okay. Aside from the hollandaise sauce, it wasn’t seasoned. I would’ve added andouille sausage but it was an additional $5.95. Our favorite item and redeemer was the pineapple upside down pancake. Would recommend.
Nathan Ferrell
Nice atmosphere, good service, and great food.
Jessica Hamby
The food here is rather good I've never had a meal that disappointed me even slightly. My favorite part about this restaurant is the portions for their breakfast food. My girlfriend and I split a breakfast burrito and end up taking enough home to fill us both up again so it's almost like 4 meals in one. Granted we're more grazers than big meal eaters however the value is almost impossible to beat. On top of already incredible food and value they offered Groupons fairly regularly to save even more money. 5 stars out of 5 No Doubt.
Robobagins
Been going here for years! Love it
Benza Guru
The server guy is very rude. No smile, and no greeting. I said goodmorning and totally ignored me. He should let someone else to take order if he have problem dealing with customer. Not here to ask for free food.
Wally Earl
Fantastic omelette, great service. (Added 8/22/17)Got the kamikaze French toast with a side of hash browns. It would have fed a table of 4, but I managed to eat it all myself. Fantastic as always. I feel so bloated...
Robbie Wurst
When you think of the perfect diner think of Uptown Diner. The food portions are huge, the ingredients are fresh and flavorful, and the coffee isn't bitter. Highly recommend this spot! Also, I don't know what they do to the caramelized onions and mushrooms, but holy diner do they have such great flavor.
Paul Baker
Solid Diner with friendly staff. Prices aren't the best but not too bad. Decent portions with fast service without sacrificing quality.
Madi Jacobson
What an awesome spot! There's hardly ever a wait, the food is delicious, and the staff are really friendly. Their biscuits and gravy are amazing!!!
Daniel Monette
Everything that I have eaten here what is delicious and they have oversized portions. I usually do the country fried steak and eggs regardless of the time of day, but the few times I have deviated I was not displeased.
Remington Jackson
I can't really say this place is that great. I kept hearing about how good it is and such, but the food is just OK. For the price I think it's a bit too much, maybe for the area it is understandable. I will say the service can be good. I personally would never order breakfast, and if you like coffee don't get any. It tastes too bland and for the price just go to one of the cafés down the street.
Michael Woolridge
Staff was friendly. At first I thought the wow that's kind expensive for a burger. However I am in the city. Then when I was served I was wowed by the size and portions. Great Job Uptown Dinner! The food was great as well as the service.
John O'Sullivan
Great food, especially breakfast. Seating is very competitive, especially on the weekends, so make sure to get there early. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Parking can get pretty tight, so be prepared to park on the street. Located in Uptown in a very fun area. Stop in if you have the chance.
Heather Stoopes
Extra large portions. Delicious food. Superb service. Loved it.
Tim Troxel
Really great portions of food for the price. The food came out very quickly. The staff was friendly and very attentive to my coffee level which never went empty. The food was great home style cooking. The business was clean and kept up.
The Other Dude
Food and service was amazing. I had their biscuits and gravy dish and that was delicious. Highly recommend.
renee kessel
Must provide name and phone number to be seated. Host and server were both very friendly and helpful. Food was delivered quickly. Great portion sizes.
kristin Johnson
Great location in the heart of uptown! The food was great, I tried the Cuban and my daughter got the clubhouse. I would personally like to go back for a burger or to try the eggs benedict. Our server was very sweet, she hooked us up with a left over shake, which was delicious!!
Michael Waldegerma
Food was good, service was wonderful. A bit of a wait but a group of two was able to be seated in like 5 minutes so not a crazy long wait for a 2am stop when every bar has closed and this is the only place that's open other than your own bed.
Obviously assessment of food is from the perspective of someone that's out at 2am, if you're going in any other time or in any other state of inebriation, look elsewhere for assessment of food and serivce. If at 2am, know you're in good hands unless you act inappropriately or make a mess.
Stella Gaines
Danny was a great waiter! The food came out quickly and was delicious! Definitely coming back☺️
Daniel Hedrick
Walked over here for take out on a recent visit to Minneapolis. We placed a large order for 5 people, and they were quick. We only waited for about 10 minutes. The portions were huge! The Uptown Burger was outstanding--using grilled Texas toast instead of a bun was perfect. Waffle fries and sweet potato tots were amazing. I'd definitely go back if I end up in Minneapolis again.
Jessica Johnson 1177 (Jes4Fun)
Service was good and food came out fast. High priced for what they offer and tasted a bit bland. Not sure I'd be back soon. For sure would not go out of my way to go there.
Liela Marie Fuller
I purchased a Groupon for this restaurant because it was inexpensive and I really enjoy diner food. The Uptown diner did not disappoint. The food is great and the portion sizes were enough to take home. I would've taken photos, but we just ate. If you're in the area and are looking for a cheap bite to eat, check this place out.
asiah kearney
Service is fast and friendly, establishment is clean and upbeat, food is amazing and top notch. I had the uptown burger and seasoned waffle fries and it was one of the best things I’ve eaten in Minneapolis so far. I highly recommend this place.
Leika Schmidt
This place is definitely solid in terms of service and reputation. It's effectiveness of getting food into my mouth is 10/10. It's usually pretty crowded on weekends but we got a table after 10 minutes. Healthy choices and unhealthy choices are available.
Morgan Hardcastle
I eat here far more than I maybe should admit, but between the price and late hours Uptown Diner is more than convenient.
The food is always pretty good, and if you're there before 11pm, the $10 Burger & Malt special is a must. (If you tip well, your servers may just forget the time) I'm fond of the Cajun Eggs Benedict and the Biscuits & Gravy (they're not the real southern style, but are still quite good.)
If it's busy, don't expect a chatty server or a lot of accommodations: You get what you pay for, cheap, tasty diner food, and fast service.
Gluten Free is readily available.
Kara K King
Nice service, food came out in a timely matter. Only problems i had were the prices. Pretty steep for breakfast. And my eggs were slimy but thats easily fixable. But the atmosphere was chill and i was relaxed.
Tarl Fruge
Great Uptown Diner!!!! This is one place you dont want to pass up. The blackened catfish breakfast is amazing! Great out of the box menu. Good hometown feel, friendly staff, fast service.
Kristina
I great "greasy spoon" style joint. Comfortable seating that can be comfortable for one or a larger group. Delicious food options. I love the Minnesotan omlet with wild rice. A decent cup of coffee to get you going in the morning. The staff are friendly and efficient. A great place to meet a course of friends to chat, relax and enjoy some good food on an early morning.
Ryan
Price is okay, great service, very fast at 3am. Food is pretty good - hash browns were very oily though, only crispy on top. The pineapple shake I had was excellent. Will definitely return.
Gabriel Hansen
Classic 1980's style diner with a menu to match. Broad selection of american food, from chili to burgers and shakes, every item I've tried has left me very satisfied. If you're looking for a healthy meal, look elsewhere. Fairly inexpensive food for the large portion sizes. Overall, great tasting, fairly inexpensive food served in a friendly atmosphere.
Jeff E
Good food. Reasonably priced. Delightful service.
Luke Dulgar
Family favorite, bring your appetite, portions overflow the plate. Standard diner favorites with some foodie/specialty twists. Best early for easy seating. ADA easy access, all street level. Family friendly.
Gabriella Retzer
Staff was awesome. They were super short on people but they made it work & did great! Good food & quick to get it to us! Recommend the burger, waffle fries & malt and the Tex Mex! So good!
Simone Menier
Has a very evocative but clean "diner" ambience. Prices not low but certainly fair. Good portions and awesome staff. Open 24 hours Friday and Saturday. The best hollandaise.
Marcus Parisian
Food isn't anything to write home about but it's fast, convenient, and open after bar close. I've had many drunk nights and mornings here and the staff does a great job taking care of you, so be sure to take care of them! The veteran move in the AM is to call in your order. It's ready in 15 minutes flat and you can skip the line out the door. Your welcome. My go to is the biscuits and gravy.
Jasmine Branum
One of my favorite diners in Minneapolis! Plus, love that there is a free parking lot. Tons of food options and a great staff.
Chloe Spencer
Uptown Diner has ample parking, which is especially nice for such a crowded and busy street. The diner also features a lot of seating, from tables to booths, and I have yet to experience needing to wait for a table because the staff are generally efficient about getting places cleaned up. Uptown Diner is best known for its cookie dough pancakes, which are MASSIVE and take up the entirety of the plate. They are served with whipped cream and a drizzle of chocolate syrup, and yes, they actually DO taste like cookie dough. You can order various breakfast sides to go with it, and I'd recommend trying their hashbrowns. It's a big portion size, so try to split it with someone else. Been here about three times now and I love coming back.

A classic diner experience. Food was great and they have very tasty milkshakes. There are also lots of options for the milkshakes. The wait staff was extremely nice, though sometimes they were a little slow. They’re open very late which is awesome.
Caroline Hollis
#3, #6, #8 and the chocolate chip cookie dough pancakes were all delicious!! And our waitress was fantastic!
Aaron Martie
My favorite place to eat when in Uptown. Lived a block away for 2 years and it's always a treat. Staff is always great and accommodating. Will make sure to come back if I'm ever in the area. Can't resist their $10 burger and shake special.
Kristina Jones
Wonderful service! We just landed and stopped by for a bite. Our lovely server kindly offered suggestions for our visit and took lots of time chatting with us. They even gave us a hand written list so we wouldn't forget. We asked questions about the malt selection and our server brought what we ordered, plus a smaller portion of their favorite malt. We will be going back today and most likely a couple more times before our trip is over. Thank you for showing us all the love!! Xoxo
Michael Meyer
Yvonne was spectacular and loved her personality. Great service.
Steve Kangas
This place serves up exactly what I think of when hearing the words "diner" and "breakfast". The portions are big, hash browns crispy, and hollandaise sauce plentiful. I'm not sure if they serve bloodies, but their food and service is great.

Great food! And love the portion size! I thought it was a bit expensive looking at the menu but then got that huge plate of food and enjoyed every bite! The quantity and quality of the food is well worthy of the price. Cool, laid back atmosphere. Way better than Perkins!
Anthony Kennedy
Classic diner food. This place has great breakfast options. I recommend the corned beed hash. The eggs are fresh and I believe cage free. They also have vegetarian options as well. I will be returning at some point rather it be 2am after a night out or for breakfast. They have something for any time of day.
Lindsay “Linnie” Monson
I love this place! The portions are quite massive, prices are fair, and they even have Gluten Free options. I have plans to go back more often. 💚 …
Mark Kraus
Great every time without exception. Ultra-fast service, huge portions of fantastic food and very friendly staff. The Cajun Breakfast is one of my favorite breakfast meals in town.
Logan Moen
I've been here a few times and every time has been pleasant, each dish arrived exceeding my expectations and I've been working in breakfast for 10 years. Quick, huge portions, great service, fair price. Nothing more to want in a diner!
Dan Wozney
Fantastic food and awesome service!
Vladimir Perez Vacalla
Great menu, a lot of options, excellent costumer service, they make you feel welcome, good prices and large portions
Angela Fields
I love my dining experience at Uptown Diner. I wish that I could move them into my home so they could cook for me daily.
Dianne Schuchard
Uptown Dinner was a nice discovery for us. We had been looking for a new restaurant to try in this part of Minneapolis. After doing a Google search this seemed like a good option. It was! A hungry person has many choices. Breakfast foods, lunch, dinner. If you come at dinner time you can have breakfast. I love that idea. Today we had a cheeseburger, seasoned waffle fries (the best we have ever had), Cubano, sweet potato tots, and a shake. All the food was great and plentiful. Since a Cubano is one of my all-time favorite sandwiches I was happy to see it on the menu. It was perfectly 👌 done. There seemed to be a nice flow of happy customers enjoying their meals. Us included.
Alex Schwan
A a good breakfast spot nestled among the bustling downtown streets where you should try The Minnesotan Omelette. Carmel rolls the size of cantaloupes. Price is kinda up there for a breakfast joint but I'm willing to give it a nod on behalf of the quality of food.
Stephen Fluin
I've been coming to the Uptown Diner for several years, and the food is still great. This is not a fancy place, and some of the characters you are going to see are definitely "uptown interesting" depending on when you go.
The only changes they have made over the last few years is that instead of paying at the front, you pay your server. I definitely recommend trying the waffle fries.
Jon Smith
From our greeting by their hostess to our fabulous server, Mai.. nothing but awesome experience. Food fantastic. Love this diner.
shawn van dyke
Love this place. Great food, awesome service
Nathan Nelson
Ol' Faithful on Hennepin. Friendly staff, consistent quality food. High quality standby for a hearty breaky, I've extinguished many hangovers here.
Austin Hall
The food and the service we're great! The special is a buyer, fries, and malt for $10.95. They were super flexible with that and let me use my drink as the malt. They were busy but still got good food out fast!
Cole Herman
After a night out I always want food and there are not many places to go. Among them even fewer that have their act together even though they know very well that they will have a butt in every seat and a line out the door. The staff at Uptown Diner has consistanly given me far better service than their competitors during the after bar rush.
schlick mick
Best burger special in the metro! You get 1/2 lb burger, waffle fries, and your choice of malt for $10.95. Awesome place for breakfast as well. Definitely worth the trip!
Reuel Thomas
Service was good, most of the food was great, but the pancakes were not what I had been expecting. For a restaurant to have diner in the name I expect amazing pancakes. They were dry, crumbly and mealy. I would try again but I'd try the burgers and not the breakfast.
Brian Huggins
This is one of the few places I go to almost every week. I go to a lot of live shows so I need places that are open late. Thur. Fri. Sat. It is open 24 hours. Friendly staff. Huge portions so definitely use it for a couple meals or know that going in. Good tea. Clean when possible. Place can get packed on Friday night, Saturday night. Sunday brunch is also very busy.
Lee Schnepf
Used to live close to the Grand View Grill and then moved - this place is a sister store with a similar menu. The different variations of eggs Benedict are delicious. Boyfriend from the south loves the biscuits and gravy. When I'm in the mood for hot chocolate and French toast, they deliver. And the Tex Mex and Cajun breakfast are also great - and good reheated. The portions are wonderful and the staff are fast and helpful. Oh, and late night hours, also good.
steve moe
Food was great.
Service too!
On a short wait list.
Got seated quickly.
Look forward to coming back.
Thanks so much!
Talicia Jackson
They did a special order for me. I just wanted steak and eggs without toast or hashbrowns; they were able to make it just the way I wanted it.
Nicole C
We called in our order for pick up first thing when they opened. The food was AMAZING. A must go!
Solana Archuleta
Food is delicious and the portions really are huge!!! But it is quite expensive compared with a couple years ago.
Emma B
Uptown Diner is one of my top 3 favorite restaurants in the TC area. Although it carries a typical diner vibe and menu, a few traits that make it so good are:
-The portion sizes are LARGE and the price is average or LOWER than what you would get at other diners.
-Menu has unique additions on top of other basic diner goods (chocolate chip cookie dough pancakes!!)
-Food always comes out fast, hot and doesn’t taste like it’s been in a freezer for weeks.
-No one food takes up all the space (for example, i hate breakfast places that just load a plate with hashbrowns, uptown diner has a good tasteful balance of whatever you order!)
Seriously love this place and love their pancakes. Must try if you’re in Uptown.
Abigail Blais
The food was awesome! I tried the special:corn beef hash benedict, the hollandaise sauce was spot on! Just a heads up the portions are big, so plan ahead to eat a huge, delicious meal!
Chuck Zandy
I'm glad the Uptown Diner is still in business as it offers a good option for those with late-night cravings. My experience with the food, however, was not good. My wife and I ordered pancake, egg, and meat combos -- a very basic item for any restaurant, certainly not anything they should struggle to prepare competently. However, one of my two traditional pancakes was soaked in grease all along one edge and had a stray blueberry on the other edge. I mentioned this to the server, who explained that since they don't have enough grills to make all the different pancake varieties on their own grill, sometimes one will overlap into another by accident. He did apologize, but he also made it sound like it was an acceptable error. Well, what if I had an allergy to blueberries? These are not trivial issues when it comes to mixture of food ingredients.
My wife had the pineapple upside-down pancakes and said the pineapple tasted tinny as if it came from a can. (I also had a hot chocolate that had unmixed powder caked on the bottom of the mug. We got the impression pretty much everything served by the Uptown was prefab.) Later her stomach was still feeling unsettled and she vomited much of her meal up onto the streets of Minneapolis as we were trying to enjoy our evening out. My stomach felt a little queasy, as well, although at least I didn't throw up.
To add insult to injury, the food is overpriced. Two eggs and toast was the cheapest item on the menu at $5.50, I believe. Our meals, consisting of two pancakes, two eggs, and four bacon strips, were $8-10 each. I understand the prices are higher due to the location right in the heart of Uptown, but I expect to get good food if I'm going to pay a premium for it.
Other problems existed, as well. Our booth was extremely drafty and we had to keep coats on the whole meal. It wasn't especially clean, either. There were copious amounts of ice on the sidewalk alongside the building, which my wife nearly fell on. No attempt seemed to have been made to do anything about the ice.
Honestly, if our experience was an indicator of the status quo at the Uptown, I'd be surprised if they don't end up getting sued and having to shut down on that basis.
We won't be back after our experience. For $25, we got an unsafe walk from the parking lot, a drafty, dirty booth, and food that didn't taste good and even made us sick. And the portions were not generous, either. Just two hours later, we both had to stop at a fast-food restaurant because we were hungry again.
OVERALL: Not recommended unless it's 2 a.m. and you're desperate (and even then, if you have a vehicle, there are better options)
Teresa Barnes
Great atmosphere. Everyone engaged in conversatiions. HUGE portion sizes. Pancakes and cinnamon rolls the size of a dinner plate. Sandwiches that need two hands to eat. Wait staff are phenomenal! Definitely will be returning.
Chris Lloyd
The food is amazing and the staff are extremely friendly and they made me feel welcomed
carissa asleson
Dani might be the best server I've ever had. Her cheery attitude and flower in her hair literally made my day. I'm also picky, and had a ton of special requests and changes to my order, and she was so nice that she honestly acted happy about how annoying and high maintenance I am.
Nsane Wun
Everytime I come in town I have to hit this spot for the veggie omelet and the big a$$ pancake. Sevice is great and food is always on point.
Maia McBurney
If you want greasy, typical diner food, this is your place. Order hashbrowns - pretty sure they give you 3 whole potatoes. Seriously. SO MANY HASHBROWNS. It's wonderful. Only complaint is that the gravy on the biscuits and gravy was congealed and cold...wouldn't recommend getting that. Oh and the coffee isn't great but that's to he expected from a diner.
Tom Collins
Consistently good food. Somewhat naughty, but all the best food is! Service is great and fast too.
Jason Appleby
I love this place. It's a solid diner with lots of good food, shakes, pastries and other edible treats that come out surprisingly fast. There are some rock star FOH staff here, too. They often take large groups of us and are excellent at dealing with all the tickets, order taking, and checking on us. Thank you UD team!
Esox Lucius
All their menu items look tasty when I see them on other customer's tables, but I'm so addicted to their Cajun Eggs Benedict that I order it every time. The waitstaff is very personable, down home and efficient.
Michael W
Atmosphere is upbeat, and happy. Service is good; pretty speedy. Has very savory breakfast comfort food, perfect for Saturday or Sunday morning. Good pricing given the huge portions!
Cornelius Anderson
Service here is excellent. Today I chose takeout as it was 6:45AM. The food was prepared quickly while I waited and was taken to the office for eating. Great and aromatic smells got lots of attention in office breakroom.
Barry Whitmore
Tasty place for the late night grub. Try to leave the bar you're at a bit before bar close though. They can fill up fast. The only other downside is that sometimes the staff will squeeze their friends in ahead of people that have been waiting longer, and have the same sized party. Watch for the bar seats to open up.
Connie Lundholm
Food was very good as usual......excitement on top of it all.....African American came in and got very loud....seems he said his take out food from last night had a hair and he wanted his $10 back!!! Got pretty angry and wiped out food on the counter of customers!!! Took off like a bat.....I saw manager on phone to police, got his gun out, cops showed up. Told Don quick eat before he comes back with his gun!!
Jenifer Berndt
Absolutely delicious foods, mostly standard fare with a tasty flare and a big honking plateful, too! Service is great and friendly, prices decent, and........parking! whaaaaaaaat?! If you're going for breakfast, try the avocado toast or the gyro omelette YUM!
Nancy R
Such an Uptown staple! Their hollandaise sauce should be bottled and sold, it's that good.
I usually get their corn beef hash that comes with toast, an egg cooked to your liking, and hash browns. I always order a side of hollandaise to go with it. Their eggs benedict is excellent too, as is the Cajun breakfast.
They're clean, have online ordering through Chow Now, and will meet your comfort food cravings.

My boyfriend and I have been coming to this establishment every Saturday since January of this year. We've never had an unpleasant experience until today. There was one group of four waiting before us when we came and had my name added to the list. We sit down and watch two tables, one of two and the other of three come in and get sat before us. What made us really upset was that my name was still on the list while the other tables just came and got sat immediately. We asked why we were left to wait and the hostess just responded with "oh, I'm sorry, hold on" which made no sense as she was the one that took my name (there was two of them running around) and we were sitting right in front of her. Simple advice to the girl working this Saturday morning with her hair in a bun, wearing a grey sweatshirt, sitting people is a first come, first serve basis unless they call ahead, sweetheart.
Post meal edit, our server was absolutely LOVELY. Didnt get a chance to catch her name but we were sat at the very end half booth inside the restaurant!
Jennifer Flaherty
Great food. Great service. The hot chocolate was terrible, and for $3.50 a cup, I would have expected more, but the food was so great that I overlooked that!
Connor Corbet
Awesome milk shakes and burgers. The staff is always fast although not always in the best mood. I’ve eaten here many times with friends when we are all broke. Good for a cheap meal.
Pamela Becker
Excellent food and friendly wait staff. I love that the employees are encouraged to express themselves in their dress and style. Oh and eco friendly take-out containers! You'll keep my business ALONE with that move.
Parker Alton
Big portions, and some dishes are tasty. Definitely a good place to go Saturday or Sunday morning if you need some greasy food. The gyro omlet is surprisingly tasty.
Katelyn Duke
Great breakfast after a footie game and morning drinks lol
Christine M Reimel
The best place ever. I bring my clients here, coworkers, my daughter and friends here. Staff is amazing. Food is amazing. One tiny little wish is that they would have Wi-Fi so I can pull up computer info for clients. But this is definitely home spot for me when it comes to anytime of the day. Love this place!
Joshua “Ominousicity” S
I am always thrilled to go here. The Cajun breakfast is amazing, and you really cannot go wrong with anything they are serving up. The counter staff, in particular, are delightful. Definitely grab counter space if you can!
Amber Gallaway
One of the best diners in the cities! Retro, great food, friendly waitresses, and really just a fun place to be! The pineapple upside down pancakes are my favorite thing, but everything is great!
jlabusz3
Went to the Uptown Diner last night for dinner. The staff is very friendly, service very fast and the food was just imagined. Delicious and good prices made the whole experience worth reviewing. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for solid diner food.
Harry Funk
Uptown Diner is our go-to place for weekend breakfast/brunch. Prices are reasonable, the service is friendly and efficient. On the down side, their coffee is barely adequate; we usually bring our own and ask them to charge us for coffee - sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. All of their meals are oversize, so expect to bring a full portion home with you (or maybe two). We love their Cajun; the kids love their waffles and pancakes. Since the portions are so big, we get to have waffles as the 'dessert' to our Cajun. Mmmmm.
Mistaki LaPlante
Nice neighborhood spot! Not the best, not the worst! Good stop for early morning breakfast, afternoon lunch/brunch, midnight snacks, or after bar late night munchies. Dont expect to be eating something amazing, however it is mostly satisfying. If you are looking for some standard american food options with a neighborhood feel this is that place.
Erica Kantola
Food was GREAT and BIG portions. Waitress was awesome! Price was really good too. If you a good homestyle breakfast definitely check this place out.
Gabrielle Durr
Convenient spot with plenty of parking and friendly staff. The food is just alright though.
Ty Miller (TyMiller247)
Family friendly and its seems like they are always open. Oh wait, they are! I'm a shake and Uptown Burger fan. I worked here years ago and they're still nice and clean like they just opened. Wow. Tex Mex is my #1 breakfast takeout.
GARON TICHY
Steak and Eggs was awesome. The meat was beat to perfection, eggs runny and hash browns crisp. Salt and pepper and that's it.
Edgar Vazquez
My brother lives Minneapolis and this is a MUST STOP breakfast place every time I visit. It's just so good. I curse those chocolate chip cookie dough pancakes and so do my thighs. 🤤 …
Shallow Hal
Fantastic place with super helpings of good food. Wild rice on the Minnesota Omelets- great food - fun place to eat.
Ben Bowe
This place was packed when we got there but there were two seats at the counter so we sat there. Our server was very friendly and helpful. The food was awesome. Huge portion sizes. I felt like I was about to die when I walked out but in a good way.
Sarah Fox
This used to be my favorite restaurant growing up. I don’t know what happened. I’m happy that they changed the hours. When I was a kid they were only open from something like 6am to 3pm so it was such a treat to go there since it was so rare to actually make it while they were still open. Now that they are a 24 hour diner I think the quality of the food has gone significantly down. They’ve added a lot of dishes that sound interesting but trust me, they only sound interesting. I was really disappointed by this apple crisp waffle type of dish they had, it was terrible and dry. The only thing I like here is their fruit plate because all year long it has a good variety of fruit and unlike other restaurants it’s a HUGE plate of fruit, not some skimpy little bowl like you normally get for the usual $4-$6. I think Uptown Diner charged around $6 for theirs but it’s worth every penny. I can never finish it all in one sitting. The variety is unmatched. Oranges, pineapple, strawberry, cantaloupe, strawberries, bananas. I’m obsessed ❤️. But that’s literally it. Oh and fine. Their waffle fries are to die for also. But those two things are seriously it. I don’t even like their shakes or malts. I just don’t get the hype. They took a good thing and made it bad. But I do enjoy just hanging out here with my friends.
Michael Rowley
Generous portions and fast service.
Aaron Kletter
Love this place. The price is worth the amount of food I get and it’s open late on weekdays which is awesome if u get off work late. Staff is friendly and they work really hard it seams. All around a good place to go and get some food.
Mark Jensen
Generous portion size, very tasty food that was cooked exactly as ordered. Our server, Andrea, was very friendly and personable. We would definitely come here again next time we are in town.
Jonathan Latterner
The food is good but their seating policies are very strict. If you plan on meeting somebody there and they are late you will not be served or seated until they arrive, even if a majority of the group is there. This is similar to other policies in other places, but never seen it this strictly followed. I will not meet anyone there again, but I will definitely go back.
Robert K Kroll
Fast Friendly Service and the Breakfast was Excellent.
Definitely a Must stop Day or Night.
Thanks Uptown Diner.
Todd Downing
Food, I had the Cajun Hollandaise, was fantastic! And the service was excellent!
Jami Eller
The food at the Uptown Diner is always great. However, service is really hit or miss. When they are on their game, it is a fast, casual, and comfortable servie. However, sometimes they are extremely slow and/or service is poot. Just go on the right day!
Crystal Prosper
I love there blacken catfish breakfast 🍽
Janice Frieden
I've tried multiple items on their menu and enjoyed all of them but keep coming back for the cajun breakfast with rye bread. It's a massive portion and even makes great leftovers!
Melissa Hoffman
This meal was phenomenal. The granola was not too sweet and this dish was amazing. Went around brunch time and had to wait a little for a seat but it was well worth the wait!
Ciara A
Everything was delicious. I had a pancake and the chicken salad sandwich.
Ben Lind
Absolutely delicious food. It can get a little pricey but not terribly so. It's no wonder this place is usually packed, even then wait times aren't that bad either.
Emily Brink
I love their creative pancake and waffle options. The apple crisp waffle is to die for, and their cookie dough pancakes are amazing as well. Hashbrowns are a good pick for your side. Staff is friendly and helpful.
Sabrina H
The pineapple upside down cake pancakes were kinda disappointing. I thought the pineapple would be cool into them but it was just on top. The cookie dough shake and crab cakes Benedict were amazing though.
A Crook
Good service and good food! Had the dinner special and the malt was Delicious! Only reason I gave it 4 stars was because how loud it was. But everything else was great and pleasant
Max
The food isn't amazing but most of it is good enough. Not enough servers in my opinion for the size of the place so the quality or your service can vary. And they are open 24/7 I think so that's why a lot of people go there when its late because nowhere else is open.
Ted Huang
This venue sets the precidence for hungover food. It was introduced to me by a friend who lived as a Minneapolis local for years. Since then it's been a regular spot for my friends and I to gather late into the morning, after a tiring night.
If you're looking for a good place to regather yourselves, come to this spot and dine in on hearty American food. The chefs know how to please.
Heather K
I love Uptown Diner! It's got a cool mid century modern feel, super good food, and awesome staff. The house made hashbrowns are my favorite but they're specialty pancakes andcfeench toast are pretty fabulous too. Parking can be tricky during rush times. Fun place to eat food stuff any time of day including gluten free options and lighter versions of some things too.
ILZE Klavins
It's a classic diner; tables, booths or a seat at the counter. The portions are generous, the food is fresh, there are choices for vegetarians and gluten-free folks as well. There is usually a wait in line for weekend brunch.
Freddy Calle
Excellent place to eat very clean good attention the waiters are very friendly a good price and I ate a delicious fish sandwich.
Mike Boe
You really can't go wrong here. Wish the prices were a little less expensive (when did eggs and hash browns start costing $12?) But you will either be full for the rest of the day or take home a doggie bag full of sweet potato tots for later 😍 …
yayatoyou cucu
Delicious breakfast large servings good if not great service
Thomas Ture
You better know what you are going to order before you get here. Our server is so pushy she rushed us to order while we were still looking at the menu. The food was good.
Sabrina Spörk Woodling
Service isn't always the fastest but it is always busy and full of people in there. Which shows how good their food can be. All plates satisfy and are great portion sizes for the price. Typical diner food, but still great!
Sasha Renee
This is one of the only places that stays open late these days. They have a large menu with something for everyone. They by far have some of the best hash browns in town.
Zachary Shires
Food is average and what you would expect from a diner.
Janaye Johnson
My favorite breakfast spot. Huge portions, great selections, just good food! I LOVE the crabcake benedict! The Bananas foster french toast is also really good! Their hashbrowns are amazing! And very fair prices. You seriously cant beat this place!
Sara B
This place way exceeded my expectations!! A group of us came in after being out at some bars, and both the food and the service were really great. We’ll be back!
Grant Vandenbussche
As a diner this place rocks. Massive portions for a fair price. Everything on the menu is covered in grease, but why wouldn't you want that. Can be a bit of a zoo past 12 am.
Bnel
Great customer service, the breakfast was good and plentiful. A++
