Seems to change management a lot these days - and I know the prices recently got bumped up, so it's kind of difficult to give a review that won't end up dated in a few months' time. Â
However, growing up just a few streets away from the Ravena Diner, I've got a lot of very fond memories of this place, many of which involve breakfasts. Â I agree with Jess X: it's a quintessential diner. Â If that's what you're looking for, you could do a whole lot worse. Â And if you have any interest in small-town people-watching, you couldn't do better. Â
All in all, if you're looking for that casual, small-town diner feel, this is a great option. Â Objectively, on the grand scale of restaurants, though, the Ravena Diner, like most diners, leaves something to be desired. Â Hence, the three stars.
I wish I had a great story about the Ravena Diner, but I'm sadly lacking one. The truth is that I've only stopped here twice while en route to other places for a quick and filling breakfast.
This is just your quintessential diner, complete with early bird specials and those funny amber-brown plastic tumblers. Â The servers are relatively friendly. Â Expect to find all the diner standards, including all-day breakfasts and meatloaf sandwiches.
