John Street Diner

Wonderful "hole in the wall" classic diner on John Street. Seriously good, pretty cheap food. Satisfies that breakfast urge. The reuben and home fries were crispy, salty, and filling. Also have hot sauce available, not just ketchup. The green smoothie tastes better than it looks - started out like broccoli, but ended sweeter like the peach puree. Felt like a healthy choice to get some veg! My dining companion had to get the smoked salmon benny and it was everything she was hoping for.

My goal today was to try somewhere new for breakfast. Saw John Street Diner on Google and listened to some good reviews about breakfast! The staff greeted us as soon as we walked in and were very friendly and attentive throughout! I was surprised to see a periogi breakfast on the menu and knew I needed to try it! Everything was delicious and super decent prices! Will be back for sure!

Very surprised! Great food. One of the best diners in the hammer. I would not have expected to get such a high level of quality from the food in a diner. I was even further shocked that the prices are so reasonable. I had the eggs Benedict, it came perfectly poached medium on a crispy yet still chewy English muffin with a perfect hollandaise to boot. Now I want to try everything on the menue. Breakfast is amazing. Coffee is over shadowed by the great food and stellar service. I have never finished off the home fries at a breakfast place until now crispy crunchy and a bit zesty. Great work guys . See you soon for breakfast. Going for chicken and waffles next.

This is the most difficult review I've had to write. I've ALWAYS been a huge fan of John Street Diner, especially for the budget friendly pricing and excellent service. And while those two still seems to be the constant, the Food was terrible. The home fries were SALTY and had a burnt taste to them. While the eggs were cooked as we asked, the ham and peameal had absolutely no flavor. And to be frank.. eggs and meats all tasted the same. As if they were cooked on the same grill top (with it being cleaned). We'll be taking a break from here.
