Dietz Stadium Diner

Great food! My entire family has been coming here for years! Absolutely love The chicken Slovakia!

The people who own this diner are the NICEST people of any restaurant I’ve ever known. And the waitresses and bus boy are too. I live close by and come often. The food is good — I’m so glad they are open 24 hours (think they are) I know they are open late and nothing else is. 5 stars!!!

This place has the best muffins on the planet. I cannot explain it. They are huge, sweet, dense, and moist. The orange cranberry muffin griddled on the flat top with butter is fantastic. I cannot eat muffins anywhere else anymore… thanks for that

I have never been disappointed with Dietz’s. This is a great 24 hour diner. The servers are well seasoned and attentive. The late nights are usually quiet. There’s nothing like breakfast at 3am.

Great place for early breakfast on cold morning.
Coffee has something fierce, tastes great: even more after refills.
Large menu and big amounts of calories for price value.
Had Philly Cheesesteak with au jus, very tender and flavorful.
Left very satisfied and full!
Gets busy around lunch time.

By far the best diner in NY, the service is amazing and the portions huge. Andy the owner is a sweetheart and makes you feel as though you are dining in his home. We especially love the burgers, fries and CHEESECAKE!

I like this place very much. We stumbled on it one evening as it was the only place open and have become near weekly regulars. They have an amazing breakfast with good size portions at the right price.
I like the old fashion feel and the staff is very friendly. It’s great for a quick home-​style meal and happy feeling!

This place is exactly what you think it would be… but BETTER! It was so old fashioned, but OH SO GOOD. The service had the «Baltimore, hon» vibe to it and the food came out promptly, like it should at a diner. Don’t try comparing this diner to a typical Double T because Dietz’s kills it. Prices are dine-​reasonable and the atmosphere is liking stepping into your aunt Mable’s place. I appreciate everything about Dietz’s and if I find myself heading North in the future, I’ll plan to stop again!

Five stars as far as diners go. Always pleasant staff as you walk in. Huge menu of great diner food. Always great fresh tasty food in very nice portions. The wraps are all awesome. The grilled Ruben is amazing. I prefer the cornedbeef. The place to go for the best diner food in the area. Been going there for years.

You have to try their beef liver. Just soooooo good :))

My first visit was on a week day evening. Friendly server, food wasn’t bad, big portions and we had to take some home. We asked for fresh condiments to go with our left over quesadilla and the server happily brought them.
My next visit was on a Sunday morning. The place was busy and we were immediately seated. Four minutes later the two tables adjacent to us filled up. A few minutes later a server takes their drink orders. We wait patiently for someone to come and our drink order, but no one comes. When the people who came after us get their drinks we politely asked the server if she would take our order, no one has been by and we have been here for 15 minutes. She threw down two napkins on the table and said, «Okay, you will have to wait,» and went back to the other table. While we continued to wait we discussed if we should leave or not. When she came back she was impatient while we were ordering our drinks, so I told her that we will go somewhere else because she does not look happy to be serving us.
That was my final visit! There are many other diners in Kingston.

I’ve been going to this diner for about 12 years. Its old but I liked that about it. The food was good and not coming from whatever distributor supplies every single other diner around. Something has changed lately and the food has been utterly disgusting. They’re cutting corners everywhere. They try to cover for the screw ups instead of apologizing and fixing it. It didn’t used to be like this there, but the last 4 or 5 times in a row that I’ve been there its been this way. Maybe I’ll try it again one day and if its better I’ll update my review.

An
old
fashion
diner
Dietz is a diner that has been around for a while and looks it, but that isn’t necessarily a bad thing. It has that old fashion and very cool diner ambiance that probably hasn’t changed in quite a while.
The rather odd name comes from the fact that there is a stadium nearby and of course the diner does get insanely crowded after games at the stadium but most of the time the diner is a quiet and pleasant place to eat.
It has typical diner food at very reasonable prices. A great place to get a traditional breakfast of omelets, pancakes or muffins and lots of inexpensive burgers and sandwiches for lunch and dinner.
Definitely not a place to go for gourmet or fancy food or décor. A simple place that has been serving inexpensive and good food for a long time.

This diner is just so awful. The servers here are always moody and rude, and the food is awful. Most of their items — save only for the salads — are clearly pre-​frozen food service fare. They offer some daily specials which are conveniently (for them) over at 6pm.
I guess the thing that’s kept this nondescript place in business is that they’re open 24hrs, and although that may not seem like a very big deal these days, in the area where it’s located, there is absolutely nothing open after 9pm, making this place somewhat inviting when one is drunk and craving at 3 in the morning and few places nearby are open
If you happen to stop in on a Sunday night when an old hag with a brogue is on duty, head for the door quickly! She is the nastiest server you will ever encounter in your lifetime! Promptly go around the corner and just a couple of blocks up to the Olympic diner instead, where you’ll have a wonderful, plentiful meal served by polite, friendly servers who will treat you like a human being. Then forget this Dietz dump even exists.

It’s a diner and a pretty darn good one .
Overall can’t complain. Menu was daily priced, service was good and so was the food. They have been there a while and have it all figured out.
Worth a visit

Have been to this diner many times, never had any issues until yesterday. Went at about 11pm with friends, service was fast and efficient, drinks were alright, but the food this time was terrible. No seasoning, and the way it was prepared, part of my food was clearly left over and microwaved.
the ONLY reason I have given this diner 3 and not 2 stars is because MOST of the time everything is good, it is a good diner.

Not sure if the owner has changed or people that have reviewed this place are clearly trolling. Me and a friend stopped by to grab some dinner on a trip back home. The food here was rather lackluster. First of all, the interior needs some serious renovation. I felt like I time warped back into the 70s and no I don’t think it was meant to look like that on purpose. I ordered the fried chicken which had a heavy batter and was rather bland. Almost tasted like school cafeteria food. The only upside that I will give this place is that the portions were huge and the service was actually not that bad.
If you are 65+ years old and are looking for an early bird special, I suppose this place wouldn’t be bad. For all others I would keep looking for another place to eat.

Great service and really good food. Always greeted with a smile. Showed up with 10 (5 kids) and didn’t have to wait long for a table. Owners came by all the time to check in with us and talk. Great family! We make this our go to after church on Sunday mornings and a guarantee for great food any time during the day for a quick fix. A staple in uptown Kingston.

Great diner. Fair prices good food. Service is pleasant. You will never be disappointed.

Great!
This is the quintessential diner: fair prices and portions, a simple and diverse menu, good «home style-​ish» fresh food and friendly, quick service. Been here a couple of times, once for the Dietz Burger and another for the Fried Chicken and Cheesecake. The burger was great, nothing special but very well done, cooked as ordered and with above average ingredients. The fried chicken wasn’t as good but way better than most fast food chains and the mashed potatoes that came with it definitely made in house from real potatoes! The cheesecake was delicious and decadent and more than worth a try.
