City Island Diner

Cycled 40 miles from south shore Long Island. Got here 9 am and not much options in the area. Spoke to a local jogger and he recommended City Island Diner for its food & comfort. I’m glad I took his advice. Walked in and was politely greeted to an old school diner with counter top seats. I got the front row bar stool facing the cook. Watching the orders come in and the cook dishing out his magic. It’s akin to watching a conductor at a symphony. Close your eyes and listen closely to the eggs cracking and being scrambled. You can smell the home fries with peppers & onions. Hear the sizzling of the bacon. My pastrami omelette arrived in a big way. Fantastic flavor & portion. Really enjoyed the meal and especially the hospitality. Loved the venue

what a nice time have not been to a diner in 20 years plus had breakfast yesterday with friends and family excellent service and food will be back thank you for a great experience.

A down home neighborhood diner serving a variety of tasty, well prepared food.

extent service energetic vibe

A great breakfast place!

Called in for breakfast and eggs properly cooked and still moist. Staff very helpful and nice atmosphere. Banana bread to die for. Would recommend.

Has the first time patron I was pleasantly surprised by the speedy attention and delicious food served in this little diner on City island. The pancakes I ordered with sausage were fluffy and tasty. Depression of his quest hiding that many times and had ordered a full breakfast with an omelette juice and coffee. The service was quick, the staff friendly in this little Diner hidden away. If you are ever on the island drop in, you'll be glad you did.
