To the OWNER of: Dear 5 & Diner, this is your review, In a poetic form As I defy the norm Just as you did yesterday. You see, my parents stopped For a bite to eat- A meal served as incomplete, Because you refused them to Take a seat… on the patio. So, now you become the subject Of my literary wrath For you sprinted down A warpath- And all because my mother has A disability? And, in case you’re confused, I’ll remind you, Exactly what happened. You see, my mother’s disability Is not openly seen, Nor will you see her limping Around or doing wheelies In a chair- But, you established you don’t care- Which leads me to believe your Valtrex is getting too expensive for you. After all, that would make me Angry too. Moving on. My mother suffers from Multiple Chemical Sensitivity- The last of which you know nothing Of, because, you made this very Clear when you said, OUT LOUD, In hearing range of a crowd, That if she’s SO sick or disabled, She shouldn’t be out of the house At all. Perfumes and fragrance of any kind Cause her senses to unwind, And though you may not Understand what an anaphylactic Reaction feels like, You came close to this reality. Now I’m not saying my Daddy would have choked you But please know that in that Moment Your selfish and barbaric Attitude Without a doubt, seamlessly Concludes You deserve to know what It feels like. My mother cannot be around People without a mask on Or her entire world comes undone, But you’re lucky her man Can hold it together. As a former police officer,… He adheres to the value Of kindness While ignoring the idiotic Blindness That asserted YOUR mistreatment. And for what, Mr. Owner Sir? I believe you actually said… There wasn’t enough wait staff To serve the patio? Who has the disability now? The pile of crap so deep In that one sentence That no amount of apology Or repentance could possibly Excuse your absurd pretense Or surround you with even A simple defense To explain how stupid You even sounded. Uhhhh, if there isn’t enough Wait staff, how are they to be Served indoors? Yours… Should be closing. Congratulations, you win a ribbon! For an accomplishment equivalent To kicking a kitten. And just in case you’re not totally Smitten By my poetic masterpiece… Here is a REAL piece of my mind Without the rhyme, The kind, That will be taken to a New story, News station level. Dear Mr. 5 & Diner owner: You suck. And may you never truly know the complications of having to overcome a disability. Also, I visited your restaurant last time I visited Mesa. I want my money back. P.S. Anaphylactic shock is like the sudden sensation of balled up Wonder Bread dipped in water and crammed down your throat, as you desperately search for some milk to wash it down only to find the carton was left empty. Also, I’m sure you don’t have herpes as indicated in my poem, but you’re spreading something far worse in your community: intolerance.

Stopped by here for lunch two days ago and was served a chicken sandwich with metal shavings in my french fries. Thats right, there was a long twisted piece of metal from a brillo-pad type of scrubber in my food, the waitress said it was from the brush they used to clean the fryer. DISGUSTING AND DANGEROUS, could have easily choked or ingested it and caused serious internal problems/bleeding/death. If you throw common sense out the window and still choose to eat here, you should check your food carefully first. Cant understand how this place passed their last health inspection, my next email will be to Maricopa County. The manager didnt even come over to say anything and they STILL charged us full price for the food! Unbelievable. Would give a NEGATIVE RATING if I could. Will never be back.Keep yourself alive, eat somewhere else.

May 2013. I love 50s style diners. The shakes here are awesome. I almost always order a french dip sandwich with fries here, and both are amazing. The decor is exactly what youd expect. Not all of the jukebox machines at the tables work, so if you must pick a song, use the big jukebox that all the others connect to. The last couple of times weve been there, my girlfriend and I have been disappointed by the service. Same waitress both times. Same lack of attention both times. Its like she completely forgot about us, until it was time for the check, and the tip. Other than that, I would recommend this place if youre in the area.

The service I experienced here was sub-par. Our waitress attempted to assign seats to the members in my party as well as badgered us about how we were going to party. It was unprofessional to say the least. Little did I know there was more to come. I ordered their regular burger and it was extremely overcooked and dry. The meat had a very unusual b texture and flavor as well. You could tell the meat was overzealously processed. Even the French fries were tasteless and soggy. Im very displeased with my experience here and highly suggest another location for you dining experience needs.

It used to be great. But now the food is carelessly put together, has little to no flavor and what flavor it does have is usually just salt. The restaurant itself is run down and always dirty feeling. The booths are exceptionally uncomfortable, and everything needs to be cleaned up or fixed. The staff is either overbearing and annoying or distant and unhelpful. The place used to be so great. But they obviously dont care enough to keep the restaurant up. I went from being a regular to most likely never going again.

If only zero stars was an option. I ordered a house salad, super simple and difficult to mess up. The waitress went in the back and asked the cooks if there was new lettuce. Rather than telling me that they needed to prepare new lettuce and that it would be a minute, they served me the old browning lettuce. When I refused to eat it and confronted the waitress about it she said "yeah, they need to make new lettuce but they havent even started it yet". You had one job lady!! We will never step foot in this place again!

This Place is horrible! The service, wait what service? My drink was empty the entire time until she brought our check, and my waitress was MIA the whole time. The food tasted like it had been sitting out for awhile. I had ordered a Texan burger very well done. My husband ordered country fried steak with gravy, and corn and mash potatoes. Both of our dinners were cold and tasted like it was old and not fresh, so not worth our time or money.

Upon arrival my fiance and I were quickly seated and the waiter promptly arrived to take out drink orders. My coffee was delivered hot and all of the sugar and cream I needed was already on the table. I ordered the 5.99 breakfast special with pancakes and I must say the food arrived in no time and tastes amazing. Me and my fiance are probably the youngest couple here right now but I feel welcomed and would definitely come back

This place is a rip! It took forever to get our food, which was nothing spectacular, and while we sat it gave us time to notice how dirty and dingy this place really was. When we got our bill and went to pay we told them we had a groupon, so they re adjusted our bill made it HIGHER so then we could use groupon and it was the same as paying regular price! We could have gone to fridays or applebees for the price we paid here!

The menu changed lost our favorite foods that kept us going back. Burgers didnt taste the same. Wish they didnt change anything at all. Still leaving 3 stars because the environment of the diner is still nice **this review was for 5 and diner** Great food, awesome environment. The burgers are great, the wings are the right amount of hot, and the fried mushrooms are amazing, cant find fried mushrooms at many places.
