The 50’s were a time of Elvis Presley, Marilyn Monroe, Elizabeth Taylor… and Diners. People flocked to these places to hang and grab a bite. A time when Milkshakes ruled, Diners were the so called cool places to be seen in. From the moment we walked in i was taken with how friendly the staff was, the girl who seated us was wearing a checkered skirt and a headband with a bow, very retro(loved the look). we had the Chicken fried Steak smothered in country gravy, served with mashed potatoes, steamed veggies and garlic toast. Veggie omelette stuffed with onions, mushrooms, tomatoes and sauteed green peppers served with hash brown and white bread toast. The food was good and the portions were generous. I was too full to try their milk shakes so that calls for a quick run to the Diner. They have a jukebox inside. The interiors are nice and bright. They also have outdoor seating. Cheers!

At one time, 5& Diner was among the better old time diners available, but the competition has improved markedly over the years and they have gone backwards. At least at this location. First, the seating is not very comfortable. The chairs are literally slippery and you have to position yourself carefully not to slide off. The booths we were offered had one side too close to the table and the other too far. Weird. Breakfast should be a slam dunk for a diner, but not here. The scrambled eggs were okay but not served hot. The sausage was tasteless. The home fries are just plain cubed potatoes dumped in a fryer with no accents(like onion, pepper). The hash browns were buttery but without the usual crisp top layer. The coffee was dishwater. I gave an extra star for good service, but really, 5& Diner, you don’t deserve it.

The atmosphere is a 50’s diner which my fiancé and I are always partial to! Really fun atmosphere and nostalgic! We split some items off the menu: their mac n cheese was very good, their salads are amazing(they have home-made dressings) in fact everything was good except for the pot roast. Honestly its just not our kind of pot roast. Although it’s hard when your mom-in-law makes a great pot roast that is award winning! Ha, no I am not trying to get brownie points it is that good. So the pot roast here was a major let down. I need to go back to try some of their more 1950s style food(burgers shakes etc) and I also want to try their breakfast! It looks like those items will be delicious. =)

My co-workers and I eat here at least once a week. Not only is the food always delicious, but the service is excellent too! Ana is one of the sweetest waitresses in the whole world and the manager always stops by our table to say hello and they always offer to split the check for us. I’ve been in plenty of fine dining establishments that cost three times more and do not provide the consistent customer service and quality of food that this little place does.

On our way home from the McCormick Train Park, we decided to stop off here for dinner before we got on the freeway. Our experience here was OK, there was some good times, and the some OK times. Ambience was great! Loved the 50’s style, loved the music. People were having a great time, including our kids. Food was OK, nothing to be proud of. You don’t have to do to much to impress the kids. So they were more them happy. I had the philly cheese steak, not much flavor, bread was to soggy, there were more vegi’s then meat. Just wasn’t that good. I also had the blueberry milk shake. Again, had no flavor. Ice cream was good though. Wife said the chocolate shake was much better, and she was happy with her chili burger. Then on our way out, kids played with the hula hoop outside on the patio. We still had a good time.

Being to 5& Diner before I was expecting some excellent service and decent food. Was I received was burnt onion rings and bland chips. My waitresses did not seem genuine even though she said the right things. I won’t be back to this location a I suggest others stay clear.

The meatloaf with mushrooms and big pile of french fried onions on top, was sooooo good, and I took home half for another meal, like our server said I would be doing. I used $ 5 for $ 10 off Groupon, but I would come in for that meatloaf without the Groupon, $ 11. Their juke box was broken. My friend said every time she eats at 5 and Diner, the juke box is broken. Her fish and chips was pretty tasty, too. Server was only 17, and very pretty and«virginal look», like a Disneyland or Marriot(Mormon) employee. She was very vivacious, we loved her. My other friend did not like her chicken pot pie. The crust was like raw dough in the center, when I like it hard and flakey, break with a fork, but it was doughy and pasty. I would have given 4 stars cos my meatloaf tasted so good, and we liked our server, but the food preparation was really really slow and there were only 2 other customers in the restaurant during dinner hour 6:30 — 8:30 on a Thurs night.

I love the 5& Diner! The staff is always friendly, I love the retro theme, and I thoroughly enjoy their house plate breakfast. This joint is always clean, serves food fast enough, and I haven’t left here without a smile.

I was looking for a quick breakfast and 5&Diner did NOT disappoint!!! Their full menu is offered all day. The restaurant was 50’s themed even the waiters were in costume!!! I ordered the waffle combo and orange juice. It was delivered very fast. It was delicious especially the bacon!!! The waiters were nice and immediately answered my requests. I live in California and I will DEFINITELY be coming back for breakfast!!!

Great service! Susie Q really looks the part of a 1950’s Diner. The kids loved it and Susie Q has a real hip change dispenser.

I’ve eaten @ the Five & Diner many times with my husband & friends. Whether it’s breakfast, lunch or dinner, I’ve always had a great dining experience & look forward to the next time I visit. The portions are large, the food absolutely tastes homemade & reminds me of eating my grandma’s delicious homemade cooking. The open faced beef sandwich on sourdough bread with mashed potatoes & gravy is my very favorite meal. The service is always excellent, even if it’s real busy. A great place to go for old fashioned home cooked food.

Knowing this was a casual cheap diner, we didn’t expect 5 stars. BUT … there’s a certain level of service all establishments should meet and unfortunately this place missed the mark. We arrived at 10 pm on a Saturday. While our server was sweet, the service was horrible and our food was cold which didn’t make sense because there was hardly anyone in there. She forgot the ranch for our fried pickles, refills on water, silverware, and the check. We will not be back and suggest hitting up the Denny’s across the street.

5& Diner is okay for a quick bite. The food is just okay, typical diner food. The place it’s self feels very old.. and not.. .“oh cool, I feel like I’m in the 50’s” cool. It has an old feel. Needs some revamping(chipped paint, ripped benches, broken table juke boxes). Staff was friendly and helpful.

The positives to this 50’s inspired diner is that, I have never experienced a wait for a table, the prices are fair, the food comes fast, and they have a outdoor doggy patio so you can bring your pooch! There is also a breakfast bar area where you can eat by yourself without feeling like a total loser. The food may not be the highest quality, but it sure does hit the spot when you are craving some comfort diner food or a hearty breakfast. Tip– check groupon for deals at this place which are featured often.
