We had breakfast here for the first time and it was impressive!!! It took a little bit to get waited on but that’s typical these days! The food came out very quickly right after we ordered! The food was very good and there was plenty of it! The menu is very nice. There’s a variety of breakfast foods ! Our server was very nice and friendly!!!
First time here. We took my mom here and got sat immediately. Server Spring was amazing. She took great care of my mom and husband. She was eager to serve us and did amazing taking care of other tables. Food was delicious, tasted home cooked. Portions were good. Very cute inside. Definitely new place to go to. Cant wait to bring my parents back.
Just called and spoke to Joanna to order my daughter some breakfast. She was very sweet and friendly, and also very helpful. Breakfast was AMAZING!! Bacon was perfect and not too salty, good quality! Well be back! Thank you again for amazing food & great customer service 😊
Normally we have a great experience. Today was terrible. The server was slow but she advised us she was busy. The salad I ordered arrived with my dinner and wasnt right. My food was lukewarm at best. Had the waitress returned and asked at all, it could have been remedied. She returned to our table only to have us pay. I am very annoyed and disappointed.
The heading for the Classic Breakfast section of the menu states: includes home drys, fruit salad... I ordered the western omelet and was told that one doesnt include a side because it has diced potatos in it .Huh? I told the manager of the conflict and she didnt care. We left without ordering
Met some coworkers for brunch on 9/11. Paid with debit card and left a hefty CASH tip for a $14 and change check. The restaurant charged my card an even $20. I am certainly very unhappy and if I EVER decide to go back it will be CASH ONLY. Food and service were good. No one has the right to overcharge your card. Im quite upset about it. If the management ever responds, theyll probably try to offer me a credit for the next time but as of right now, I dont think therell be a next time. Its not that special. Sad and angry.
I ordered the New York Strip and what I received was either flank or flat piece of meat. The fruit bowls my Mom and I both got fruit bowls. Or I should say Melon Bowl since it was only Cantaloupe and Honeydew. We were expecting grapes, and berriesOn the plus side, my Mom enjoyed the Avocado Toast
Pork chops had a sour odor to them. Mashed potatoes were bland, gravy was disgusting. The only thing fresh was the green salad. Waitress was exceptional. Pork chops were removed from bill.
Great service. Had the steak and eggs. Every thing was cooked perfectly. And reasonably priced. Definitely worth trying.
Love this place I hope they reopen soon!!
A very good neighborhood dinner. Good food at a fair price. Great menu.
Not that great. Would not return.Food was subpar. So many much better places to eat in Ft. Myers.
This restaurant is perfect for all hours of the day. Breakfast lunch or dinner, you are guaranteed to get the same level of quality. I wasnt thrilled with the food but its a nice local place so idk. homemade desert cake was kinda dry which was sad.
Not a bad diner, reminded me of a jersey diner from back home. We’ve eaten here a few times when we’re in the Naples area. Good busy location easy to find nice decor decent food, decent pricing. Certainly worth a stop for dinner or lunch or breakfast.
I just moved to Fort Myers in August. I have not seen a real diner in years. So we thought lets try it!! First time we went was a afternoon. I was surprised to see a salad bar. I love salad bars. The salad bar was fresh and clean and looked appetizing. My Boyfriend ordered a hamburger meal. It was a big burger and he said it was really good my salad bar was great since then We have been in there at least four or five times and everything was good I love their omelettes my boyfriend had a chicken dinner it was so good we’ve had breakfast there the owner comes out I’ve seen him two or three times and asks how everything is the waitresses are awesome. The last time I walked in they knew who I was it’s a classy diner and very clean and they make you feel at home they are so nice and professional!
I stop here every chance I get. Try the Boston Creme Pie Cup. To die for.Great waitresses!
This used to be one of my favorite places to eat. First off we tried to go a few weeks ago. I dont remember the exact time, I believe it was astound 12:30AM. Every lighted sign for the place was burning bright. Clearly stated OPEN 24 HOURS. It wasnt until you park. Get out of the car. Get up to the door. Tug on said doorjust to find it locked. Look at all the bright 24 hour signs just to notice a little 2x2 sticker by the handle of the door that says 7AM 10PM. Even on Google said open.Went tonight 7/23/21. The waitress is not very knowledgeable. Instead of finding the answer to your questions, her go to answer is I dont know, Im not the cook. First strike.! I ordered broiled Crabcakes. The FIRST time they were brought out, they looked raw. Definitely NOT broiled. Not her fault. Send it back. Please have these broiled more. Now Ive eaten plenty of crab cakes, Crab meat does not look like grains of rice, this did! She brought it back out. Still looking exactly the same! She is asked; are they baking them or broiling them? She says yeah baking. When is pointed out that they are supposed to be broiled She responds with her go to answer. I dont know, Im not the cook second strike! I take a very very small taste. DISGUSTING!!!!! Its bitter and doesnt even remotely taste like crab. I tell her NO! This is not going to work. She did ask if Id like something else. So I asked for the chopped steak. She left the imposter crab cakes and fries on the table. When she brought my chopped steak, that is all that was on the plate. No fresh fries. The gravy was congealed. I was done! We ordered dessert to go. When the bill came at least they took the crab cakes off. So dissatisfied!
Great place to eat with a lot of variety. The inside of the restaurant was very clean and tastefully decorated. Biscuits and gravy were delicious. Personally I would have preferred if the biscuit wasnt toasted. I like a softer biscuit. Still tasted great my mom loves their pancakes. They have a salad bar as well that has some variety. We also indulged with a piece of cannoli cake! Omg was so amazing! Jewel was our server and she was so very nice and made sure we were taken care of. Overall great experience!
I ordered the Salmon Benedict with home fries. Our food came fairly quickly, but everything our table ordered just lacked a lot of flavor. Also the temperature in the restaurant was very warm even though it wasnt extremely busy. Overall it was a fair experience. No wait on a Sunday morning and the food was out pretty timely.
Not impressed. Burgers were tasteless. Best part of the burger was the lettuce and tomato which were very good. The tiny serving of coleslaw was good. French fries and onion rings were mediocre. Won’t be returning.
41 Diner, S. Tamiami Trl., Fort Myers,Fl., Here is my 2 cents on the food and chatter.The food. Buttermilk fried chicken,stewed green beans, with soup and salad bar.The fried chicken was a delight a bit sour buttermilk and a bit sweet with the honey. I was not too crazy about the stewed beans but they were fine.Now the salad bar. Three different lettuces, 2 soups and a slew of condiments.Plus coleslaw,potato salad and macaroni salad. Something for everyone. The split pea soup was thick and flavorful.The service was stellar. Unfortunately I could not eat desserts. Too full. It all looked fantastic.
Good. Not to die for. Its a diner. Quick eats. Quality diner. They cooked my eggs perfect (over medium). Bacon was good. 4/5 due to service and noise level. Waitress made up for mistake and gave us free dessert. No biggie, hospitality is tough right now. I get it.I come here couple times a year. I suggest it for a quick bite of decent diner food.
Easter Sunday and very busy but the food came out fresh and hot! Servers were pleasant and helpful. Soup & salad bar was great and servers assisted you. Highly recommend!
Sorry I dont remember what I had or anyone else had but the guys finished their entire plate as Im writing this I remember what I ate and it was a chicken wrap with fries Service was great very professional informative and very friendly The place was very clean but could use a face-lift due to it being the old Mels but still it looked very clean Thanks to the waitresses and chef I would definitely go back 😀
Very limited menu and no soup or salad bar anymore. Disappointing.
The food is good they have a salad bar waiter was very nice very attentive a little expensive but it was okay I like the place
Newly remodeled. Great service. Half price wine. Food was great. Open faced roast beef and chicken Parmesan.
Very underrated. Good food, not busy. Very good service. Full bar, tons of tvs. Kid approved.
Great food, service, prices and ambiance...a true oldies diner
My best friend and I had lunch at Forty One Diner today. Abby was our fantastic server.. Shes very knowledgeable of the menu and very attentive to the diners guests. The Gyro Feta Omelet did not disappoint.. Sooo good. Friend had the disco fries and the lentil soup. Restaurant was clean, well staffed, and has a very diverse menu. Again, would really like to thank Abby for a great experience!
Always deliscous friendly service. Cant wait to go back.
The place is very clean and the service is good but not great. Our crab sandwich and patty melt werent very good but thats just the luck of the draw at the time. The prices are reasonable so all-in-all its a good place to go to grab a meal
One of the best French Onion soups that my wife has ever had.
Good food ..... dinner include salad bar and soup.... very clean, nice and peaceful
Great food and friendly staff. So glad we stopped here. Rodeo burger was amazing. We also had an order of the mozzarella sticks and they were fantastic. Great location near Koreshan state park as well.
Our food was good and our waitress was very nice. Lost two stars because several of the employees were not wearing mask as required by Florida rules. Kitchen staff brought out food with mask down around her neck. Staff behind the bar constantly dropping her mask up and down. Lots of elderly people frequent this area. 1:00 pm 22 Jan. 2021
Nice - great service - good food - good size amount of food Just went back yesterday 8/24 .. got all you can eat fish ( cod ) wasnt impressed with it not taste what so ever tried to spice it up .. NO good & Mac n Cheese was nasty & I love mac and cheese tasted like they put potato flakes in it ( instant ) But still would go back its was only 1 bad meal
Great food, friendly service and a kick a** salad bar.
The Ruben is excellent! The club is huge! Their fries are crispy and perfect, so glad we stopped for lunch. Will be back.
Came here for the first time while visiting a friend in the area and was very disappointed. My food was okay. I got the country fried steak and the gravy was good, but the actual steak couldve been much better. I got scrambled eggs and they tasted like a very dry version of the ones from McDonalds.Now on to the sanitation... Were still in a pandemic and they allow people to walk all throughout the restaurant without masks and the employees themselves dont even wear their masks correctly. They have an open salad bar, but require masks to use it, but you dont need one to enter the restaurant. This is the first time that Ive been in a restaurant during this pandemic that couldnt care less about the health and safety of their employees and patrons. It wouldnt be too huge of a deal to me if I didnt live with people who will die if I get sick and give it to them, but I do.
This one server, Maria, is the absolute best. Always been a very pleasant experience dining there. Restaurant is always very clean and well kept. Food is always excellent. Been a repeat customer for years now. Would highly recommend this establishment.
I had an excellent Grilled Ruben Sandwich. The staff was very attentive and no glass went unfilled. I like the menu generally. There were some eastern Mediterranean dishes on the menu such as stuffed grape leaves. There was an excellent selection of cakes and pies that my companion said was delicious.
Amazing food and awesome drinks! Tina was awesome and the rest of the staff was friendly as well! We will definitely be back!
Great food. 1 fly did torment us.I really cant wait to return.
The food is hit or miss. Dont come in with high expectations. The deserts they make in house are AWESOME!
I ordered tuna melts to go. Guy placing the order reviewed American cheese. Ive done the same on every visit Once I received at home noticed that both sandwiches had zero cheese. I mean honestly who makes that wirhout cheese unless no cheese requested. Is it not built in the name tuna MELT ??? I can make a tuna sandwich at home. So upon callback, I was told kitchen closes in 5 min I asked if they can be switched out and the answer was, Sorry, no, were closing Ive been there plenty. They just lost my business.
Great food, Excellent pricing
Great service, excellent food and reasonable prices
Good simple food, and they have a full bar! Good service
Great diner style food.. amazing salad and soup bar all you can eat!!
Was an old Mels Dinner! This was much better! I worked for Mels on 41 Naples. We had breakfast at 3pm. Everything was so good! Prices were great, nice choice but not overwhelming! 41 south to ft.myers. Great place!!!
I ordered from Doordash and had a few minor issues. Drove in reluctantly and the nicest person Joanna (sorry if I spelled it wrong) made my day. She made everything right and I got my sauce! Thanks for turning my day around!
I love this place it’s a five star for a fair price. You will be surprised by how tasty and unique the food in this place. The staff are very friendly. The place is very clean. You get what you expect all the time.
Disappointed. It was not overly busy, yet it took 45inutes b4 food came out of kitchen. Hamburger (asked for medium) was overdone & dry.
Great food.
I didn’t even get a chance to try the food. I went in there with my family to eat, trying to support small, community owned restaurants.You would think that during this difficult times people in the service industry would be more attentive. Sat in the waiting area for 6 minutes and waited to be taken to a table but we were never even greeted.Three employees saw us and even made eye contact but none acknowledge your presence or greeted us. We walked out of the place and not a single word was said to us.
The food and service are great one of our favorites. The exterior of the restaurant and parking lot does not look representative of whats in the inside. They need to clean up all their landscaping and parking lot. Great local grub.
The service is great and the food menu is well thought and diversified, its hard not to find something you like, the food is great tasting, and the prices are also reasonable.
Ordered through Uber Eats on 1/3/20. Gyro with coleslaw and french fries. The Gyro lamb meat was not thoroughly cook, which I had never experienced with a gyro before, very nasty. The slaw was served in a small ramekin not filled about a spoonful or two. Disappointing but not shocking. Wont be eating here again
Food was good but had to wait awhile for food after ordering
Food is good. Service was great! Comfortable, relaxed atmosphere. Great soup & salad bar! Large selection of entrees and desserts!
Great diner food! The Crab Cake Mac & Cheese was yummy delicious so was the Disco Fries and the homemade Peach pie and the homemade Peanut Butter pie. Huge selection of homemade desserts! Waitress was very nice
I love this place! Great salad buffet!
The outside of this place is looking run down. I went in for lunch, asked for a ice tea and she said we have no ice. I said why not send someone over to publix and buy ten bags. She said, I have no one I can send, yet I see the mgr. walking around doing nothing. I wont be coming back anytime soon!
First time we visited for lunch today. Everyones food was delicious. Our foodserver was excellent.
Service was great. Food was served timely. It is ok comfort food. It is nice inside the place, comfortable sitting. Probably wont go back unless its late night and nothing else is open. I ordered the Rodeo burger I was pleased. Another person ordered a 41 breakfast they ate all of it but were not too pleased with the pancakes, and were given hashbrowns instead of breakfast potatoes. The other person ordered a patty melt and she did not eat it. She got a cheese sandwich in replacement of it and she only ate half. Her coleslaw was dry and she will definitely not go back. Will probably go back to try some of the desserts that look yummy. Also they have a salad bar, I will be willing to give that a shot also. I didnt see it until after I had placed my order. Overall worth it to me to atleast give it a try and decide for yourself.
Food was average at best. 12 bucks for a simple chicken sandwich that had tomato, avocado, cheese, and a pickle spear. Definitely wasnt worth 12 bucks. My daughters spaghetti smelled like vomit and wasnt very appetizing. We asked for a side of mayo for my wife as we ordered and the waitress forgot it. Overall, not worth the ~30 min drive it was for us. We live in South fort Myers and theres a lot of better options that are closer.
My steak was a little over done, but the wait staff were very friendly and accommodating
I ordered food for takeout and the gentleman dealing with my order was super nice! The food on the other hand wasn’t so great. I ordered Buffalo Chicken Tender Mac N Cheese and I received Mac N Cheese with chicken and no buffalo sauce.
Nice salad bar! Ribs were good soup was good! Great waitress! The desserts looked amazing!
Food was hot and FRESH. The biscuits and gravy will take you to heaven. I will definitely be ordering again. YUM!
Our waitress was absolutely horrible I didnt catch her name but she had a cross tattoo by her ear. Our whole order was wrong and when she asked if it was right we said no but it was fine and she said thanks and walked away. Just terrible service but the food was okay.
I went for first time this week. The fried buttermilk chicken was served hot out of the frying pan, the meat was putting off steam and it was juicy. I like it because it wasnt breaded or salty. The dolmades were good and the homemade cream of tomato was excellent with little pulpy pieces. The salad bar was constantly maintained. The spinach, romaine and lettuce were clean. The potato salad fresh. The service was good but not intrusive. I dropped my cane on floor and before i gave it a second thought to pick it up, the busboy raced to get it for me. I think it was the owner in parking lot who gave me a hello nod. I thanked him for the wonderful meal. Im taking mom and sister next. A friend is going to join me for lunch as well.
The food is pretty good. I was disappointed with the piece of cake I took home. It was dry as can be. It was obvious that cake had been sitting there a while. Ill still go back to eat there, I just wont order dessert!
Really luv this place a got their bbq ribs..omg
This is a hidden gem is SWFL. This is an actual diner where you can get real comfort food with superb service. Ive seen dates, family outings and casual hanging out while I was there. The country fried steak is some of the best Ive ever eaten. Will go again.
Good food and service. Salad bar isnt self serve right now due to covid Im sure. The servers are MORE than happy to get you whatever you want! Will go back for sure.
Third time I have gone where I didnt feel well after eating.. I like the food, and the staff is friendly, but something just doesnt sit well with me
Asked for a menu item and was told they dont have it, if thats why your coming here, we probably wont have it any time soon.Server was crabby and slow. Other server helped out.Food was dry and tasted old. Baked potato was a Boiled potato in aluminum foil.Server argued over name of dessert in cooler, when a tag said Chocolate Chip Pie, she insisted it was just Chocolate pie, She didnt want to cut the Chocolate Chip Pie.Moving forward, Ill spend my money at another diner.
Its a comfortable place to eat, and the service is friendly
Amazing food, BREAKFAST ALL DAY! Service was amazing, our server was Deana (dont quote me on the name..im sorry) she was friendly and attentive. We were on vacation in the area, if we would have stayed longer we would have been regulars for sure.
Great food, very, very pleasant staff.
Food and service was very good, big portions for a good price.
This Diner is a pleasant surprise. They had great selection, even Greek, many special burgers, too many to list. Delicious!
We go often for a great breakfast. Great prices. Friendly staff. Food is Not greasy. In my opinion this is the best place to go for breakfast in our area
The food was just outstanding! Great customer service and all, I had a worker named Abby. And she was just very respectful and always smiling, I was well taken care of and her customer service was amazing! I rate the restaurant and staff there a 5 star!
Terrible good and Terrible service
