Please be careful going to this establishment. I was called a liar when I shown proof that I was overcharged. Please check your bill. Then the owner used racial material that came from his heart to release hate and shame when trying to explain the...experience that transpired. PLEASE BE CAREFULMore

My last few visits have been extremely disappointing. Both the food and service has taken a severe drop in quality since they opened. I had been a frequent customer but after being served cold eggs, raw bacon, and rubber potatoes, I saw the owner being...rude and disrespectful to another customer so I decided it would be my last visit.More

If I could give them zero stars I would. The owner was the rudest most obnoxious person I have ever met in the service industry. I will never visit this restaurant again.

Despite its strip mall location (a bit challenging to find on gps), this is a classic diner. The menu is extensive, including some creative omelet combinations. Portions are gargantuan! Service was amazingly good especially considering how busy the place was when we ate there. The...place has a happy and very local vibe. I can't quite get to a 5-star rating. The coffee is just ok, the jams are not great, and just about every diner was unmasked. But this is a great place to stop for breakfast, and I expect we will return.More

My daughter really wanted gyros. We went to this diner because of the reviews. We ordered the lamb souvlaki gyro, portuguese sweet bread french toast, sweet potato corned beef hash and a pancake. Everything looked really good, except the gyro, which clearly didn't have gyro...meat, just lamb chunks. Which we should have realized from the "souvlaki" in the name. Unfortunately, the only good tasting food was the french fries that came with the gyro. The corned beef was clearly canned with just added sweet potato. The sweet bread french toast had almost no flavor and you could taste the egg. It was as if somebody had partially beaten an egg and then dipped the bread. It tasted like a lightly scrambled egg on bread. The pancake was dry. The souvlaki was average, but might be off-putting to people who prefer more cooked meat, as the lamb was pink. We ended up throwing away the food and driving all the way to Greek Corner in Cambridge to get edible food.More

Good breakfast and lunch place. Good prices, good service, good menu and great food. Really busy on weekends, but if you can go during the week it’s a little easier to get a table. Try it, you’ll love it

I ran here from my house. It took about an hour and I was hungry. I got a special, The Red Velvet pancakes, which my waitress, Alicia said wouldn’t be here that long. They were delicious. I highly recommend them. Alicia did a great job...as a waitress, serving my food in a quick, efficient manner. I love Iron Town diner and hope to return soon.More
