7 Best Diners near Temple

“I ordered the "mini meal" of eggplant Parm with spaghetti. It came with a roll, 2 veggies or 1 veggie and a cup of soup and dessert of pudding... All for just $9.99. For my veggies, i got pickled beets and broccoli which was fresh broccoli. I enjoyed my meal. My husband ordered the chili fries which he said could've used more chili and the bacon cheeseburger. He liked his meal. The place is an old time diner with counter seats as well as tables and booths. The bathroom was clean. Our server was great!!!“

“Went on Saturday March 30 with three adults, Two Toddlers and an Infant. The host and waiter were extremely friendly and personable! Can’t say enough about how good of an experience we had! Staff was kind and accommodating to our party and the food was delicious! Great place and I will definitely be returning and recommending this place again and again!!Kid-friendliness: Thy have high chairs and a chair to put your infant seat on! All the staff was mindful of the children and very kind, plus they gave the toddlers crayons!Wheelchair accessibility: They have a wheelchair ramp / baby stroller ramp, and a huge parking lot!“

“They've been saved from the big land developer and everyone needs to go there to eat! Excellent food and service.It's not on the menu, but ask for the Aspen Burger: cheese burger with let, tom, onion, a fried egg and Hollandaise! You're welcome.Best French fries EVER.“

“UPDATE! I returned to this restaurant, now named “American Diner.” I ordered the same thing as before. Eggs, home fries, turkey bacon and grits. I also ordered a New York strip steak because that is what my bestie ordered on my last visit. Upon arrival I was immediately taken to my seat. There were plenty of other customers there as well on this Sunday morning. My servers name is Samantha. A very beautiful melanated woman who just happens to look like Clarissa Shields the current GWOAT of female boxing. She was one of the nicest and prettiest servers I’ve had. She was on top of her job and did it very well. There were no problems with my order and she asked several times throughout if I needed anything else. I dove into the grits first because that’s why I was there. I added butter, salt & pepper than dove in and to my surprise, they tasted a lot better than before. The previous time, they weren’t edible, but this time they were so I dug in. I cut the steak and ate a piece and noticed that it was a little tough and it needed more seasoning, but it wasn’t bad at all. I just added some table seasoning and some A1 sauce and everything was fine. The real test was eating the grits with the eggs and bacon I ordered. Well, I ate everything on the table and not once had to ask for a replacement or for something to be made over. It was cool sailing once my food hit the table. No, their grits aren’t the best and still need some work, but they are edible now and will not disappoint those who love them as much as I do. I was impressed with the cooks because the restaurant was packed and my meal was not under or over cooked. Everything turn out great considering how packed it was. I’ve taken the luxury of adding more stars to this review for atmosphere, food, service & overall quality. My name BigDaveIsFat says it all. “Get Your Grub On” folks! Check out the pictures below!“My first review! The grits were the nastiest I've ever attempted to eat. I sent them back seconds after they hit the table. My friends steak was 85 % fat/gristle making it next to impossible to eat. I am a superior grit maker and I suggested they remove this item from their menu until their staff learns how to prepare them properly. The grits you see in this picture were made me.

“AMAZING breakfast and service. There is not a lot of seating area (seating for maybe 30 people or so), but it is definitely worth the wait to get in if there is a line. Wide variety of the usual and with plenty of unique, fun combinations. I had the scrabble poutine, and it was amazing. You will go home with leftovers as the portions are huge. Will definitely be back when in the area.“

“Professional staff and modest prices I only bought a small fountain drink a flavor I don't think I've had before if I'm ever in the area again I will definitely stop by and take advantage of menu items I just didn't have enough time.“

“My husband stopped in breakfast today 4/29/24, and while the food and service were good, I was disappointed when we paid at the counter near the door. The man there was very engrossed in his computer, didn’t ask us how our meal was and barely acknowledged us. Customer care and concern should be paramount in any business. Exeter Diner needs to work harder in this area as it left a bad taste in our mouths despite the good food.“
