Food was good, i ordered a 4 egg vegetable omelette, with cheese. What I like most was the live entertainment. A waitress and a customer singing some of the old hits from the late 60's early 70's. Jimmy Ruffin, Smokey and the miracles, Aretha Franklin and more. I also like the motto on the wall and the back of eberyones hoodie "LETS EAT"

I visited the South Side 35 Diner early afternoon this Tuesday(10/28) at 1 pm. It was easy to find a parking space in the parking lot that was quite close to the entrance of the diner. Upon entering I only had to wait momentarily before the hostess led us to an available table. The diner had many types of seating ranging from bar seats, booths, and tables. It was almost full when I entered, but had cleared out a little by the time I left. The hostess gave us our menus and we were promptly greeted by a server who politely greeted himself. The diner was clean and the ambiance of the diner was inviting with bright open space. I ordered a latte with almond milk which was the only dairy option and a freshly squeezed orange juice. There were three menus presented which made it a bit overwhelming

Enjoyed the music as well as others did. A waitress and a customer were singing. I said the roots from Cleb Bene must have grown up the street

The first thing we notice was the friendliness of the staff. Everyone greeted us warmly and welcomed us into the restaurant. Service was great! Food was tasty and plentiful. Varied and interesting menu, LOTS to choose from and many healthy dishes and some out of the ordinary choices. Kids menu. Everything homemade - including the hash, and we all know how I love a good homemade hash! The restaurant is lovely, clean and the decor changes with the seasons. It’s very fallish right now, in huts of yellow and gold. Accessible♿️ Parking right on site. Can’t wait to return. This was our # diner in the Somerset Patriots Diner Passport…. Making progress!

Had a great experience dining here for lunch. The portions are huge and the food is tasty. The staff are also very friendly and check in to ask if you need anything occasionally with a huge smile. Thank you for your amazing service! The milkshake is very delicious!
