Dirty and terrible service. I would definitely not recommend

by babsanon

I decided to give Dot's Diner a chance because I saw a lot of good reviews for it. I was terribly disappointed. It was filthy, with stuff all over the floor and you could see that the grill area was even dirtier. We waited a long time for the waiter to come over. When he did finally grace us with his presence he was apathetic and seemed like he might be high. The food was decent, but definitely not healthy fair. Very greasy. And the supposed acclaimed biscuits were rubbery. We went up to the counter to check out and the gal that checked out the couple in front of us then turned her back and started cleaning jelly containers. While I agree that they definitely need to do some cleaning around the joint, it probably shouldn't be done right when a customer wants to check out. We waited at the counter for 5 minutes, with other employees walking right past us until someone finally helped us. Now I'm not fastidious by any measure, but this place was a huge disappointment.

• Pros: Good pancakes
• Cons: Dirty, terrible service and greasy food

The Meanest Waiter Ever!

by debrawilliams

I will have to say that my attitude towards this restaurant is quite negative. I visited with my child and friend for breakfast December 30th. The waitress asked us to move when we found that we needed a high chair as we would be in a main isle. She asked us to move to the corner booth, so we did. The waiter in that section scolded us telling us that the restaurant was split up in sections, there were people waiting before us and we cound't just move where we wanted. I would have been more sympathetic of his predicament had he tried to help us resolve the situation instead of yelling at us. I was so upset we left telling him that he could give the booth to another customer. He smiled and waved goodbye to us. My office is just steps away from this restaurant, but I will have to say that I will probably never step foot in this restaurant again.

• Cons: This was the most blatantly rude waited I have ever encountered.
