Three friends and I went to The Lantern Diner on 11/6/2022 after being insulted by the hostess at the Waterzooi Brasserie & Oyster Bar in Garden City and leaving without ordering. We had quite the pleasant surprise at The Lantern Diner. We were enthusiastically greeted and seated and a very spacious table (All four of us are on the large side). We were immediately asked what we would like to drink, and those drinks got to the table super fast. Our lovely waitress took our orders and got our delicious food to us in a more than reasonable amount of time. Between the excellent food and being treated like we were long-lost relatives, we left full and happy. I highly recommend this place!
Excellent, kind and fast service. The place is super clean, have a huge parking lot which is great!! They have a very large and diverse menu. And I love the vintage look of this diner.
I've been meaning to stop in for a bite to eat. I'm glad that I did. Wonderful food & service, clean atmosphere. I don't know for a fact but it seems as if it's family run, everyone's so outgoing & friendly. Loved the iced coffee suggestion that one of the waitresses suggested i think it had vanilla & cream in it. It kind of reminds me of the diner and family from "my big fat greek wedding" just really nice people serving really nice food with a smile. Will definitely stop in again soon.
