So i came here with my siblings for a quick lunch. I ordered chicken wings for appetizer, a Texas burger deluxe, chicken panini, and chicken quesadilla with rice and beans. The chicken wings never came and the server asked while giving entrees if we still wanted the wings. We said no as it had already been 20+ minutes of waiting. I asked where my panini was as they had served me grilled chicken on hero bread. The server told me that they do not have a panini press. I proceeded to say why there are paninis on the menu if they do not own a press or can actually make it. She did not have an answer. Sandwich was not good. My brother had the burger as you can see in the picture. Burger was extremely well done, dry and it literally tasted like NYC school lunch. The only good thing was the order of rice. The beans tasted like straight canned beans that were poured and warmed up. This is my last time at Ellie’s Diner, which is a shame as it is the only diner in Parkchester. The server did remove my “panini” from the bill, so I left her a 16% tip. Do not recommend this place.

I'll give to this place only 2 stars and, the reason is for the quality of the food. Nowadays people are changing their eating habits for good, like me, looking for healthy options and eating food that helps my system to run better each day. This place seems to be stuck on the 70's, same old greasy breakfast. I asked for almond milk since regular one hit me hard in my stomach (I'm lactose intolerant). I asked the waiter who was super attentive and. apparetnly he had his own bottle for his personal use, he said to me he's lactose intolerante too, and, he shared it with me, that's what I called service. Alvaro ( I believe it's his name ) went extra mile helping me during my breakfast. He was very cool and friendly, opposite to his co-worker, the waitress who looks sad and unhappy. The food, as I said before, is not good. Too much fat in there. I hope they take the consideration and make some changes in the menu as I've seen a lot of elderly people eating there and this type of food is not good for them.

The quality of the food has really taken a nose dive. The hash browns were completely soaked in oil. The home fries (potatoes) tasted as if they were in a dirty fridge for weeks. The pancake was oily and had a smelly aftertaste. The Canadian bacon was fried... ?? Overall not a good experience I used to be a regular but I stopped coming when their quality started going down. Poached eggs ... We're what they should have been. It's hard to get this one wrong. Overall disappointed in the food, the ingredients, and lack of freshness. Probably won't return or friend friends and family here.

So...the food is...meh? I ordered chicken marinara with melted mozzarella. The chicken seemed undercooked. My wife had a cheeseburger. They have hunts ketchup. [Insert Personal Opinion Here] As a diner, they get 3 stars because the food is edible, the bathroom needs a makeover and the prices...you could spend much less at almost any other diner nearby and get a much higher quality meal. The staff is ultra friendly and accommodating. The atmosphere is comfy, with an old timey family vibe. Never seems crowded. Plenty of seating for families.
