Town Talk Diner

Less than expected - Super Slow. My first trip to the Town Talk Diner was not impressive. I rate my overall experience as a 2. The issues at this restaurant clearly lie with the kitchen being able to deliver a timely meal. Everything else was good/great.

Ambiance scores a 5. I loved the old diner counter and the industrial aspect of the decor - including the hose clamps used around the napkins. Very clever!

Service: scores an 4. Our server (when we finally got one) was very good. Appropriately attentive and kept our water glasses full... maybe to distract us from the fact that we didn't have food.

Food scores a 3. Each of us liked (but not loved) the sandwiches we ordered. Our onion rings were underdone. Regular fries were a little soggy, and the garlic fries were overly salty.

Notes:

When we arrived on a Wednesday evening, there were only five tables of people in the dining room. We were seated promptly and given water and menus. We sat for 10-15 minutes before someone finally took our order. Our appetizer came out within 10 minutes, however food was not delivered for almost 30 minutes after that.

While we were waiting for our food, the server came to our table three times to tell us it should just be another minute or two.

Bottom line:

Decent food and very good service did not make up for lack of attention to timely flow of dinner items to our table. Even though by the end of the meal the dining area was 2/3 full, it shouldn't take 40+ minutes to deliver three sandwiches.

As a former waitress, I felt sorry for the servers.…

so....slow....so....ssssslllooowww...... been in the Town Talk a couple of times. if you go, just keep in maind, wait, and wait...it could take a while to get ur order. service is pretty lame. the bar is good, love th drinks, the bloodymary is real good! the malts are good as well. try the meatloaf, its ok....

the rest is not that good.…

WOW!! really not that good, BOORING. Service was ok a little slow and she really was not that friendly. Starters The Brie wedge was extremely tiny, good but way to small for the price. The onion rings were large and cooked perfectly but bland, no flavor.

Entrées

The only special was a Salad consumer said it was OK nothing special.

Meat Loaf was a funny pink color and was over cooked, dry and full of filler.

Philly cheese steak was good.

The post roast was tasty but the Portion was very small. Must have been the last order of the night, three little chunks of potato and under cooked carrots and raw onions.

Meat good veg not so good.

Bottom line is if you charging the prices there charging the food and service best be top of the line.

I give this place a 2 out of 5.…

Super slow service. Went on a Sat. night, place was packed, this was around 6:45, within 30 min the place started to clear out. It took 20 minutes to be seated and after that over another hour and fifteen minutes to be served, by the time we were served the place was pretty empty. We were told 3 different times our food would be out in 2 -3 minutes. I honestly thought our order was lost but then when it came time to pay the bill it took 15 minutes after we HAD TO ASK, for the bill to get it. We were ready to walk out and see if someone noticed. It then took another 10 minutes to get my card back. Food was just ok and not worth all the wasted time and the noise you had to shout over to hear someone next to you.…
