The Diner New Canaan 18 Forest Street, New Canaan, CT 06840

"Gus is such an amazing person just speaking to him on the phone to take my order.. he was very polite understanding and he made sure we had everything we needed... my first time ordering from this place and the people are amazing..."

"Came here tonight for the first time. Was in the area and needed dinner. I ordered the Thanksgiving dinner in a wrap. Turkey, stuffing, gravy, and cranberry sauce..wow was it delicious!! The only thing I would have liked more of was gravy and cranberry sauce. I was gonna ask my server for a slice, but she never checked on us. I also ordered cheese and gravy fries.. unbelievably delicious. I didn't want them to end, lol. The gentlemen that cleaned my table, gave me a menu, and brought me a drink was very kind and attentive. On the other hand, our server was not good. She literally just took our order. She never checked on us, and I had to go ask her for the check. She should learn to be more attentive to her tables. Especially since it's a tiny diner and wasn't slammed. The diner itself is very clean and really awesome to look around. Will definitely return."

"Clean great looking small diner tucked on a side street with lots of pedestrian neighborhood traffic. Had a fried fish burrito with all kinds of vegetables and sauces - fantastic. Fries good. Coffee reasonable … served in a mug with a spoon dropped in which is a peeve of mine, really don’t like that. Vanilla milkshake was very good, served in a nice glass with wide straw. Will definitely seek this place out again when traveling on the Merritt Parkway."

"Liked it here. Really friendly staff. Great menu and speedy service. Well priced and good portions. Decor is just what you'd expect! You won't be disappointed."

"Literally chose this place from diners in a 50 mile radius during a recent trip through the area. Absolutely thrilled with my choice. This place is 100% classic American diner but with wonderful outside seating and a terrific vibe. Absolutely loved my ham and cheese omelette, fresh ingredients, great portion size, cooked to perfection! Next time I will sit inside and enjoy the decor! Recommended 10/10."
