Stopped in for an early breakfast before heading out of town last week. It was a rainy morning. Glad they opened up on time at 7 AM was greeted with a bunch of friendly smiles and good mornings service was great. Food was hot and fresh. I had a great ham and cheese omelette and a couple slices of French toast delicious nice hot cup of coffee. I will be back.

Really amazing food, big portions, very affordable for the amount of food. I was surprised with the amount of food that came with my order. Highly recommend. And the waiters are wonderful and nice. I felt welcomed since the moment I entered the diner.

My family and I used to come here at least 3-4 times a week—one of us was always at Mark Twain Diner. We stopped going after the pandemic because prices went way up (for example, the Jersey Burger jumped from about $13 to $19). I went back last night and ordered the bacon cheeseburger wrap. The food was excellent, and I upgraded to disco fries for $3.50, which I expected and was happy to pay. I also asked for a little extra coleslaw since I love it. The server said “sure,” but what I didn’t expect was being charged $3.50 for a full side without being told. That, plus the wrap and fries, came to $36 with tip.

I suggested Mark Twain diner to my guy because I remember the food being really good. We ordered to go. Got home and the order for me incorrect. I should have checked before I left. Ordered the taco bowl. It comes with rice, black beans, peppers, onions, guac and lettuce. I passed on the latter two items. When I got home, sat down to eat and there is not one bean in the taco bowl. Now I am thoroughly annoyed because I had to go back to get what was missing. I had gotten home from work almost 8pm, only to go back out to pick up dinner. Now I'm going out a second time to get the missing items. Oh and the bacon for the order of pancakes was missing. His order was fine. I could see if it was super busy. It was not busy. Maybe 6 people dining in? Now its after 10pm and I have a hot cup of bea
