What People Say About The Alexis Diner ! |

It's always better at the Alexis! We love this place and have been coming here for a few years now. It is an especially welcome beacon of yummy delights after a very long car ride from NC at any hour. One would be hard pressed to not find something delectable on their pages long menu but I recommend brunch foods at all hours. They have the most delicious blueberry pancakes and omelets! You may have to queue for a few at weekend brunch but it will be worth it. It is good for large groups too who are easily accommodated in their Egypt Room. I can almost taste the papyrus now!

I love a good diner and have not been disapointed at the Alexis Diner - something for everyone and the food is good, fresh and fast. The menu is extensive. |
Awesome place to eat for kids because there is so much to choose from and a popular place for when the college kids come home. The food is good and they have the best root beer floats |

Love the Alexis Diner! We live in CT and drive to PA four times a year, and always stop here for breakfast on the way down, and for dinner on the way back. The food (and portions) are amazing, and the prices are very reasonable. Its lovely inside, and the staff is always pleasant. A winner! |
I'm glad I took the advice of the other reviews and went to Alexis Diner! The pancakes are amazing! (Trust me, try the pancakes). I also like their French Onion soup and Paninis. It was so good the first two times we went there, we've gone back again and again. One time, we sat down and just had dessert. Their dessert is heavenly and it's all made on premises. In fact... I think I'm going there today! |
This the best Diner in the whole wide world! The entrees are huge, enough to take home and have a second meal. The staff is congenial and efficient, the atmospere is pleasant and suuny. It's aways a pleasure to dine there. I look forward toit each week and have been going there since the first day it opened. |

The Alexis Diner in Newburgh used to be called the Lexus Diner until the car company sued them over the use of the name. It didn't matter that the diner had the name first, I guess the corporate suits were worried that some of their customers may not be able to tell the difference between a Japanese luxury car and a corned beef sandwich. They may have been right though, both a burger and a car can some deluxe, but who wants fries with a coupe? But, as Shakespeare said, what's in a name? The Alexis Diner by any name is one of the best in the Mid-Hudson Valley.
I can speak on this with some authority, I've probably eaten there somewhere between fifty and a hundred times and it's been very good almost every time. The few times it wasn't was a few years ago when I think they were temporarily under a different management, since that they've been back up to snuff. The menu is extensive, the service is good, and the prices are reasonable.
As for the food, the Rueben sandwiches are good, and huge, the Gyros are good and come with a small Greek salad (see the picture above), the burgers are good, the deserts are very good, the salads are fresh and huge, the omelets are fluffy, in fact, just about everything is good. Of course I follow my rule of ordering diner food in a diner. By the way, if you order a salad, order the small one because it is plenty even for me, and plan on sharing a desert too. The pie slices are big.
My daughter was visiting from North Carolina and we were watching Man Versus Food on TV. It was the episode where he ate a huge corned beef sandwich. Rachel said she wanted a Rueben. You see, they don't have diners in the South. They have places they call "meat and three', meaning you get a meat and three sides. We went and she got her rueben, I got a gyro (again I pronounced it right, yee-ros, and the waiter said gyro. Of course he wasn't Greek, he was Mexican) and Teresa got a burger. All were good.
Stop by sometime for a good meal. You won't be disappointed
