Paradise Diner 260 Warrenton Road, Fredericksburg, VA 22405

"Recommended; we are from Maryland and enjoyed this lovely local establishment for the first time today 1/29 for lunch at 1 p.m.. First of all, the smallish front part of the building from the road, does not demonstrate how long it's extended into the back, LOT'S of seating. FOOD 4. My wife ordered the Patty Melt, huge delicious, though Patty Melts are usually served on Rye bread instead of wheat. I had the Greek Omelette on a whim, (never heard of a Greek omelette similar ingredients to a Gyro); Excellent! The sides were wheat toast and Grits. Sorry; am from the South; Grits should never be served from a soup bowl and watery, and should stand on a plate like mashed potatoes. SERVICE 5. Well Earned. Kind, helpful, polite, funny. It was extraordinary for us to have such an exceptional Server. Hometown sense of humor, it was wonderful for us to have an acquaintance with her. ATMOSPHERE 5. A very cute home style dinner. Establishment very clean. Bathrooms very clean."

"Visited this place for brunch on a Saturday around 11:30 am. It has a good old fashioned diner vibe. Outside is blue and make the inside look smaller than it is. When we walked in the tables in the front were all packed. They said they were going to seat us in the back. We expected a few tables tucked in the back, but there is actually a huge party room back there with booths, tables and a bar. We had brunch omlets, pancakes, French toast and bacon. Everything was delicious along with the coffee. They also serve drinks. Prices are reasonable and portions are nice! Staff was friendly. This will be on my short list when visiting Stafford. I will definitely come again."

"We haven't been in here in many years. The ramp type entrance and building exterior are very dated. The Christmas lights woven into the entrance are a little weird. It appears only the front 1/3 of the building is utilized for the restaurant. The rear has another entrance with a strange looking statue next to it. What's that for?? The desert case is just as you enter. The inside is clean and the staff attentive. The menu is extensive even for a diner. Our late morning visit was for breakfast fare. Wife's SOS came with seasoned home fried potatoes/peppers/onions and it was very good. My pancake/French toast/eggs/bacon was also very good. We would stop in again if in the area. *Note this review was completed without using ridiculous undiscriptive terms like out-of-bounds, OMG, on point, awesome, the bomb, yummy, delish, to die for, do your self a favor, trust me, or kids emojis etc.. Describe the food, service (or lack of) and provide details on the cost/copy of check and include pictures! Is the place clean? No disrespect to the employees but no one cares about the waiter/waitress/clerk names, or if they look like they fell face first into a tackle box. They get changed like underwear and you don't get to pick one. No we don't care about your allergies or the need for gluten free food. **If you see a Google review posted with just stars & no text, report it via the 3 dot selection adjacent to the review.

"Salad with blue cheese is excellent, the corn is very good gyros and baked lasagna are good. Avoid the French onion soup there was something off about it."

"Best breakfast food! Way better than any other breakfast food chain restaurant. This little diner is so cute and the staff is so friendly and welcoming. They put love into their food and actually care about their customers. My favorite spot for breakfast, lunch, and diner from now on!"
