Central Diner & Grille - American restaurant in Pittsburgh - 6408 Steubenville Pike, USA

I went with trepidation due to the very mixed reviews. I was part of a large group. Service was efficient and quite friendly. All at my table greatly enjoyed the food. Portions were large and we all took some home. I’m not sure why the negative reviews. We were treated very well and had no issues with the food or the service. I had the gyro platter and recommend it. I returned with a friend. Once again, the food was very good as was the service. My only issue was a very loud conversation near us, but that is not their fault. This time I had the bagel with lox, it was very good, and again too much to eat at one sitting so I took half home.

Decent brunch spot with affordable prices and lots of choices. We ordered the Spanish omelette and corned beef omelette. The potatoes that it came with were not my favorite, but omelette was good though very cheesy. All in all, solid place for brunch

What a great place! Breakfast was very good. Big fat Greek omelette and challah French toast. Service was fast and friendly. Food came out rather quickly and was quite tasty. Will certainly be back!

My review was based on breakfast. The food was delicious. I ordered eggs over easy with sausage and toast. It can with home fries. Everything was perfectly cooked. The sausage links were large and extremely flavorful. Also to note, we got our food in less than ten minutes after ordering. It was FAST. The atmosphere was nice and clean. It is a nice setting. We were there on a Saturday morning but it wasn't really getting busy until we left around 9:30. The bathroom wasn't super clean when we were there but it appeared to be maintained on a regular basis. The waitress was professional and quick. She did a great job keeping things there and making sure we were taken care of. Would definitely recommend. We will try to make it back for another meal at some point.

Ok, I am a diner guy. I am driven past this place many times but never had time to stop. On this trip I made the time and boy, am I glad I did I had one of their skillet breakfast. And to be quite honest it could have served two, the portion size was so large! It was very tasty. Heck, I give them five stars for just making sure that toast with buttered correctly. Service was diner good. A little sassy, but just right You can dine in doors or outside in one of two different patios. I will definitely be going back!

We went on a Sunday morning and it was very busy but we only had to wait for 10 minutes. We had an omelet and french toast, and everything was very good and fresh. The waitress was attentative and friendly, and we never went without a coffee refill. I only really have two complaints that stick out. There's nowhere to sit and wait when you get there, and I was trying to avoid colliding with the kitchen staff the whole time. When it's busy, there's a mess in the front when you are trying to pay your bill. They don't take your check at the table, and it causes a mass of people waiting to pay the bill, to be stuck with the other mass of people waiting to be seated. Can get chaotic.

Been hearing about this place from my lady for almost a year. Finally went there. Everything - OUTSTANDING. I got one of the specials - Salmon and Crabcake. Besides the salad (get their house dressing, yum), my other side was pasta with garlic in olive oil. The garlic florets in there were like candy. Service was superior - friendly and fast. Definitely will be back.

The portions are large enough and the hamburger was tasty. Also chicken sandwich was good. Prices are reasonable. The only problem is that they serve the meals with coleslaw salad and there was an insect inside. I told this to the server and they apologized for it however they did not give any complimentary food/desert for this inconvenience. I would expect that…
