We shared the raisin walnut french toast and an omelette. The French toast came with maple syrup and made for a nice combination of ingredients. Our omelette had Swiss cheese, mushrooms-and spinach. We chose an English muffin and fruit cup for sides. Again, no complaints. Our server was attentive and kept my water glass full. The bathrooms were clean and well maintained. I recommend this place without qualifications.
Old style diner with really good food. Visited here several times and the servers were consistently friendly and efficient. Obviously a more mature local crowd. Two hostesses, one younger and one older. The younger one is friendly and open. The older one is not friendly, walks around the tables not engaging at all with customers and just seems angry. An elderly woman in a wheelchair came in with her husband, and the hostess muttered "oh Jeez why is she even here". The hostess told her that she couldn't eat inside but needed to either use an outside table or leave! Unbelievable really, and an extremely unprofessional attitude. Hence the 4star and not a 5star rate.
The Plantation Diner is located in the Plantation Towne Square Plaza. They have been serving up homestyle food since 1989 and have become a beloved Plantation landmark. Diners are as American as apple pie and love their budget friendly, extensive menus so when I saw this one in Plantation I decided to stop for lunch. The inside is comfortable with retro nods like a classic black and white interior, vintage clocks and photographs, a green stamp wall hanging, Coke memorabilia, and a take a book area near the front. There are benches and tables and chairs to dine at inside the dining room or you can eat outside. The Plantation Diner is known for their big portions and daily specials. The menu features a breakfast menu with eggs and omelets, mimosas and bloody Mary's, griddles and pancakes, oatmeal, avocado toast, quinoa bowls, and sandwiches and wraps. The lunch menu offers deli sandwiches and wraps, melts, club sandwiches, burgers and hot dogs, hot lunch platters, and salads. I decided on the roast beef melt for lunch. It came with a pickle and fries. The sandwich was so large that I had to take half home. I wish I had left room for dessert. On the day I visited they were offering a German Chocolate cake and brownie and berry crumb pies. Service was fast and welcoming and portions are large and a good value. This is a dependable place to get a great breakfast or lunch.
Today was my first time visiting this diner. When I arrived, it was busy and there were two ladies seating people from the waitlist and one lady checking people out. I asked the ladies crossing off names if they could add me to the list and they told me I had to wait in the checkout line. I get to the front of the checkout line and the lady looks at me annoyed that there should be two lines. Super weird first impression. Our server was nice and efficient. I ordered the pastrami Rachel, it did not come with 1000 island (as it says on the menu) so I had to ask them to bring me a side. My friend ordered the biscuits and gravy, which he thoroughly enjoyed. When we were ready to check out and pay for our tab, he noticed there was an extra $11 charge on our bill. Thankfully, the cashier went over to our server and asked her what the confusion was. At this point, the two older ladies were questioning where the cashier went? The cashier returned, realized it was an overcharge, took it off our bill, and then proceeded to say under her breath that she hopes that she will be relieved soon because she has to use the facilities. If you want a quick bite to eat, the food is good. The restaurant looked clean and it has old vintage decor. However, the front of the restaurant needs to be run a little more efficiently and the three women would benefit from a course in teamwork.
Quick service friendly server ,, the busser that was there is always a pleasure to see he is friendly ,,, our server took our order with accuracy coffee was hot and she kept it coming. One of my go to spots
This is a local breakfast/lunch (brunch) spot that has been around for years and moved to the Publix Plaza quite a while ago. I haven't been here in a couple of years. And on a Saturday at noon there was about a 10-minute wait. The place is popular. There is indoor and outdoor seating. And though it was a cool day, I always prefer to eat indoors. But an outside table was perfect for one patron and his four-legged pal. I had my usual Challah French toast with strawberries and whipped cream (hold the syrup) and my pal had a country omelette. We tasted each other's meals and gave them both a thumbs up. The only negative for me was that a side of bacon (3 strips) would have added $6.50 to my $11 French toast order. Say what? The place is plain and clean and the servers are friendly and efficient.
Such an old-time diner feel when you walk in...the hostess is too loud, the floor people are moving too fast and the chatter resonating from the patrons is over the top...I love it! The service was great, everyone was nice and everyone was steadily working to tend to everyone. Super clean, simple, an old-time diner setting that is welcoming...and the smells from the kitchen made me hungrier and hungrier with every passing second. I prefer the Hot Open Roast Beef, and am so glad I did. The beef was perfectly tender and cooked just right. The mashed potatoes were made in-house and you could tell it...haven't had such a wonder mash in way too long! I got a side of tomato, that's how my grandparents would have served the dish, and it's been many years since I had the chance to feel like I was back home with my family having a Sunday supper...it would have been just like this and that made me smile. I plan on returning soon, with my wife and kids, to try more of the offers from their menu.
I like the Plantation Diner. They are just down the street from us, and it can be a quick visit for breakfast or lunch. They give you large plates of food; the wraps are HUGE. I usually only eat 1/2 and bring the other 1/2 home. Here are my favorites! PD Breakfast Sandwich - Egg, cheese and sausage on a plain bagel for breakfast - really good! You can have the egg fried, or scrambled. Very good! Shrimp salad - it is well -seasoned and very tasty. They put a lot, so either get is in a wrap or on a salad as it just falls out of a sandwich. Cooked in house Roast Beef wrap, which I get with lettuce, tomato and mayo Cooked in house off the frame Turkey (good in any way - club, sandwich , wrap) which I get with lettuce, tomato and mayo Tuna salad wrap. It's a good tuna salad. Not overly heavy . Their potato salad is also good. I always get it as a side with my wraps. I have tried other things, but these are my favorites when we eat there. They have daily specials on the big chalkboard inside. But if you eat outside, you don't know what they are. It can be hit or miss , but its pretty consistent with the food. My husband says they make a really good hamburgers - he really enjoys the bacon cheeseburger. Give it a try!
