Grand Stage Diner 2490 Hempstead Turnpike, East Meadow, NY 11554

"My favorite diner on the mainland. Terrific service. Excellent food. No matter how busy, a table is always waiting. Everyone working here seems to pleasant, in a good mood and eager to help. Don’t know why, but the eggs taste better here. Clean bathrooms. Bar. Huge, free parking lot."

"My Lady and I came here after seeing such great reviews. The food and service were top notch and aligned with the other positive reviews I read prior to coming here. This was our first, but definately not our last time visiting this Diner."

"I love this diner for it's great atmosphere and service. It's everything you want in a New York diner! Huge menu, specials, great coffee and super quick service! The Broadway theme decor gives you plenty to talk about. Our family enjoys the waffles, corn beef hash, eggs, and sandwiches. Prices are leaning toward pricey but the specials make it somewhat reasonable."

"I've been a frequent customer of this diner for well over twenty years. I had my regular servers who everyone knew and were incredible at their jobs - very rarely an issue or a need for complaint. Portions were huge and I always felt comfortable. After the change of hands, or rebrand into its current state - I feel it's lost a little something. Giving the outside a spit shine means nothing if the core is bad. I haven't had an awful experience there; however it's just not the same. The food quality is still good; but the plates are smaller... no regular servers who know your name; or care when you come again. Too many memories over the years to stop going - also glad there's still diners in existence. Hope it gets better. **UPDATE** Getting better - Still not the old diner experience I loved for years; but not awful. Food was good and portions better."
