This is another great example of the fabulous diners in Kingston! We were greeted with a smile and seated immediately. Mia our server was exactly what you want, friendly and informative of the menu. Her smile could light up a room! The food was prepared timely and it was absolutely delicious!!! It's a very busy place in the afternoon but don't let that deter you, you will be taken care of!! I look forward to my next visit to NY and my next visit to KVD!!

Kings Valley Diner is a charming spot with a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere that instantly puts you at ease. The staff are genuinely friendly and attentive, adding to the diner’s warm, vintage vibe. One of the standout features is the impressive variety of vegetarian options perfect for veggie based diners or anyone looking to try something fresh and flavorful. The food itself is delicious, clearly made with care and quality ingredients. Whether you’re stopping in for a casual meal or a cozy catch-up with friends, Kings Valley Diner delivers a satisfying experience that feels both nostalgic and nourishing. Highly recommend giving it a try!

b.overly_delicious @kings_valley_diner Kingston, NY: Everyone has the one diner they grew up with. The one they spent late hours sipping coffee and smoking cigarettes in until the morning sunrise. For me that was the Barclay Heights diner, but for my kingston friends it was Michael’s. Kings Valley wasn’t on my radar (KVD for short) but maybe that’s because it was called Texas Lunch until 2001. I was already mostly done with my late night cheese fries and gravy faze by the time it changed names. Some people swear by KVD, but I never had a reason to change my spot. I found myself here over Christmas break and was pleasantly surprised. Pierogis with bacon (I’d say lardons) and fried brussels with honey sirachi and chipotle mayo were passed around the table. Steak salad looked spectacular and

Onion soup was salty, baked potato was questionable, my wife vomited in the bathroom. The lamb had lots of fat and was very chewy. The salad and diet Pepsi with lemon was good. Not a recommended eating establishment.

Food was just okay. But the vibe in the diner was cool.
