Imperial Diner — Restaurant in Town of Hempstead

YES Imperial Diner is very busy because many Long Island people know where to go to get great food and service ...In my opinion Imperial is the very best diner on Long Island . It is professionally owned and managed Great care is taken to make sure the food is served properly and is plated well and attractively ...The salad ingredients are crisp, chilled and fresh . the plates for the salad are chilled..Service is very prompt , water glasses are refilled without asking , empty and used plates and utensils are removed promptly .....The drive up curb service is an added asset to our community ...I used Door Dash recently when I ordered for delivery ..The service was so prompt .... everything arrived perfectly even though it was late at night ..I recommend Imperial Diner to all my friends and clients and when out of town visitors arrive I always take them there ....We have never been disappointed !!. The owner , Billy , is a profesionally trained chef and knows how to manage a fine eating ...

Extremely disappointed after my visit this afternoon, we went for lunch to celebrate the day after my wedding (I have been coming here for years), my maid of honors beverage come with a hair inside of it, the server was slightly bothered but replaced the beverage. When our lunch came out, my aunt had a long lack hair on her plate, after getting the manager he explained it must of occurred after leaving the kitchen and it couldn't be the server which had her hair tied back. The server came to our table, to accuse it being my aunt's hair and obviously she was extremely offended by this comment, when I went to speak to the manager about what had occurred he returned to te table to apologize for the server but he assured he would be taking care of the check for the table. At the end of the day, he only provided an 18% gratuity for their error o not mentioning I had to foot the rest of the bill , giving them one star is extremely generous this restaurant has forever lose my business as well as my family's. Avoid unless you are looking for extra protein...

I ate breakfast here back in September while I was in town for a wedding. I'd been meaning to leave a review but I kept forgetting. Better late than never. When I ordered my food, I was expecting the same old breakfast as anywhere else but I was blown away by how delicious the Eggs Benedict was. The hollandaise was perfect and delicious. I try Eggs Benedict everywhere to try the hollandaise sauce because I'm obsessed. This was by far the best hollandaise I've had. I've been trying other places to find an Eggs Benedict breakfast that measures up but haven't found one since. Unfortunately, I live in NJ and it's a 2 hour drive away or I would be eating breakfast here every other weekend. The home fries were also delicious. The presentation of all the dishes was great. Honestly, one of the best breakfasts I've ever had at a restaurant. Hopefully, I can go back next summer to try other items on the menu. You won't regret eating breakfast here. Other people at our table ordered other menu items and also said their food...
