We went today to have dinner and let me just say this will be our last time going. We were seated in a section that smelled like pee. We asked to be moved. We were moved to a back booth so much better. Our server quickly asked what we wanted to drink. We were brought out pasta salads that were mush and loaded with oil. Pickles and cole slaw werent too bad. I ordered a California burger which is (burger, raw onion, tomatoes and lettuce) I asked for a side of bacon. My husband got a omelet with home fries and my son mashed potatoes and gravy with chicken tenders. Lets just say I stopped eating after 4 bites of my burger because it was just flavorless and just gross. After another 10 min of feeding my son, my stomach instantly started gurgling. We had to leave. Also as we were there between the waitress and busboy approaching our table constantly to see if we were done or needed something else it was a bit much. Within 10 min we were approached 5 times between both. My husband asked if they needed the table or something. The waitress apologized when she brought the bill and said her boss was on her. We tipped her well because she was genuine and sweet. Other than that the food was horrible and we will never eat there again.

First time here and yes we will be back when we come back in July. We came for dinner late at night. There were four of us and we all ordered different items. One ordered the Vodka Penne she said it was the best she ever ate. We all sampled her dinner choice. She was right it was superb. It had large fresh mushrooms and the sauce was creamy. Our youngster had a Mediterranean Pannis. It was the first time she ate the whole thing. She ate the Red Velvet cake for dessert. I Had the Corned Beef and Cabbage. There was enough for two people. I had tapioca pudding for dessert. Mrs. D had a large bowl of Chicken Noodle soup and a cup of Coffee. If your ever traveling and want a great meal, come here you will not be disappointed. We will be back.

There was a hair in my food, and the food was covered in bits and pieces of other peoples orders. The manager was extremely nice and made sure I was satisfied when this was brought to his attention. Nevertheless, precautions should have been taken to avoid this in the first place. I will give this diner another chance in the future, but if I experience something similar again I will take my business elsewhere.

Used to go here decades ago and Im glad I came back. Looks like its under different ownership and all for the better. The family and I are weekly regulars and Im the type to try new things every week and so far I havent been dissapointed. Come on back, order the steak fries burn them twice, you wont regret it. (P.S. Z-ONE can suck it with their starchy fries and ridiculous prices.)

Used to love this place till there was an issue with charging the right amount for certain items on the check. what really made me upset was the owner was sitting right there next to me while I was standing there arguing about the issue and he asked me what is going on and I told him. Even after I told him what had happened he still didnt do anything about it.

For a Diner, it is incredibly expensive... We went for breakfast, 2 adults, 3kids. I was the only one who didnt order a breakfast item (I got a salad instead). Check was $160+. So with the tip and all it came up to be a $200 check. I think thats a little too much for a simple breakfast at a very simple place. Food wasnt bad, but wasnt all that either.

This is a local diner for me thats easy to get to but its not my favorite. The breakfast is average and a little expensive. Service is usually fine but Ive had a few times where my food was very late or it took forever to get another cup of coffee. All in all its a OK diner but I cant say I crave to go back.

The locals all know the history of this Diner, but I guess they have made a come back. This is my 3rd favorite Diner on the Island. Their burgers are delicious and they hit it on the nose with the rest of their dishes. Their food tastes great no matter what time of night or day. Definitely worth visiting.

When you come in a Sunday morning and its not crowded, that should tell you something. Staff was ok, but after we ate, waiting for the bill forever. The food was pretty good everything came out hot. They think of as free muffins as we waited for a food and they were pretty stale. Prices are reasonable.

This place has friendly servers. The lunches looked amazing, but my husband and I ordered the breakfast. It wasnt the best we had, nor was it too bad. The food did take a while to come, but our server kept coming to tell us everything was being prepared for us.. Overall it wasnt a bad place to eat at.

Because the menu is so HUGE you can tell the majority of the food is not fresh and the taste test proves that. A lot of frozen and pre-prepared food reheated and served fast. this is a typical diner, nothing special...bonus point it is 24/7 and delivers late nights. 2 stars, not big deal.

Awesome cannolis! After moving out of NYC and eating what people call cannolis in south FL, I forgot what theyre supposed to taste like. I picked some up at Alfonsos before heading back to FL and damn! These cannolis are so good! I will definitely stop by when Im in the area.

Food is definitely decent, but nothing more; its a typical diner with typical diner food, but only slightly better, hence why we come here somewhat often whenever we decide where we want to eat. Waitresses tend to be friendly and prompt with getting orders in and out.

The Dove is a wonderful place to eat either a big meal or burgers and fries. The owners are there all the time they are very friendly. The wait staff is amazing. The food is excellent whether a salad, a wrap or a full course meal. I am there at least 2x a week.

Service is not good at all. Neither is the food. Ordered a gyro with no onions and its like they heard put extra onions on! Plus the food is expensive for a diner. I only go here if Im starving after a movie at the atrium. We call it the dirty dove here.

Absolutely the best diner I have ever eaten in. The hostess was great, my waitress was amazing. On the ball with refills when we needed them and the food, my god, it was like eating with Jesus. The food was unreal. I cant wait to go back. A+ in my book.

This place was great for group of 14 late at night. I just had the sugar free cheesecake and if you like whipped cream like i do youll like it too. Our waitress was great and she warned me about the dish when I ordered since some people dont like it.

It is a very nice family oriented place, service is great, Keri is the best she remembers what each person normally orders and makes it a fun night. The food is very good and they have a large selection to choose from.
