★★★★★ 5.0 Riri D · Feb 2026

Stopped here for lunch. The menu was extensive. The servers were all friendly. The food was very good.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Mr. Kim Huff · Aug 2025

Had breakfast at the Smyrna Diner. It was busy, so the service took a little longer than expected, but the staff was friendly once we were seated. The meal was good overall, but a few things stood out. The grits portion was small and tasted like instant, and the kielbasa was underwhelming—more like a hot dog in flavor and texture. Still, the food came out hot, and it’s a solid spot if you’re looking for a classic diner breakfast and don’t mind a bit of a wait.

I believe the highlight was the kind service and atmosphere. I tried their special burger. It was tasty, simple, and filing. My folks liked the toasted cheese steak sandwich. It was a nice twist to the usual roll.

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Laura Franze · Feb 2026

Food okay but the waitress needs to find another line of work. No personality, never checked on us, overcharged our meal. They were not busy. We were offered a refill on coffee by a different person. Too much food and overpriced. Do not get the soggy French Toast. Disappointing. Not in a hurry to go back.

★★★★★ 5.0 Stephen Rorabaugh · Nov 2025

Visited the Smyrna Diner this morning. Great food with top notch service. Three separate servers handled our table, all very friendly. Food came out promptly and hot as it's meant to be. We enjoyed a 2 egg platter and a western omelette platter. The food was fresh and cooked as ordered (extra crispy home fries for the win). Would definitely recommend to locals and travelers alike.
