Jay's Diner

Food was decent. We got the steak on French bread and the Philly cheese steak. The steak on French bread wasn't great. It lacked a lot of flavor and was overcooked. The Philly cheese steak on the other hand was great. It was well seasoned and delicious. The vibe of this diner was wonderful. The 50's vibe was there with all the neon light and aesthetics. Lovely place with lots of options to chose from. Our waitress was awesome. She had a great sense of humor and made our visit even better. I would recommend this place if you'd like you get some good diner food.

As walking in there is a pleasant garbage or rotten food smell. The music box was very difficult to operate. The desert was ok. I could have done without it. The waitress was very polite and attentive. She checked in on us 3 times. The people behind me was banging on my chair. The mashed potatoes were like something from a foreign planet. They had a bounce to it like it was spring loaded. The roast beef was cooked very well done like shoe leather. Shoe leather surprise indigestion flip flop sandwich The French fries were beer battered and I don’t like that but I ate all of them. Good pickles! Scary bathrooms. A perfect dingy diner.

First time at the diner, it will not be our last! The food was amazing, fresh and a really good value. If I could give the service more than five stars, I would. Jay's was extremely clean, including the bathroom.
