This has been an amazing experience. I have been going here for years and have tried most of the items in the menu. The pizza and sandwiches are amazing and really shine in this retro diner especially compared to the rest of new haven. Everything is freshly made and really good.

Just ordered from here through snackpass a week or two ago and the service was amazing. I normally only comment on the food–which I will. I ordered a shrimp pesto pizza and a large cheese. However, there was a bit of a mishaps and they gave me two entire medium pizzas (their medium is also quite large for NH standards). The owner even called me up and asked how everything was and to check on things, which is unheard of now.

I do not recommend this place. We liked the funky retro look so pulled over hopefully, intending to order dinner. We couldn’t tell if it was open. The door was propped open but the place was empty and dark. However, we asked and were told to come in. It was eerily quiet.

Where do I begin? The place is filthy. Windows look like they have not been washed since the place opened years ago. Bathroom dark, smelly and disgusting. They have cute jukeboxes on every table, but the one on our table was sticky with grease and took my money. Told the waitress but she shrugged her shoulders with indifference. Food was tasteless, including toast. Not sure how someone can screw up toast but I suspect it’s because the bread and butter were old and stale. Housefries: tasteless. Omelette: tasteless. My friend’s water glass had unrecognizable items floating on it. Do yourself a favor – skip this diner and drive over to I-91 to 91 Diner Restaurant. That diner is impeccably clean, and the food is always fresh and delicious.The only reason I tried Star Diner is because my car was getting repaired at the shop next door.

Went to this diner for lunch at work and ordered a Buffalo Chicken Sandwich. The owner/Cook went in the back and made it in less than 3 minutes. Took a bite into my sandwich and the chicken looked like it was made a day or 2 ago and just reheated in the microwave. Oh and didn’t ask for a receipt and there was an extra 2 dollars on my debit card bill. The bathrooms are a piece of work too. This retro diner should’ve stayed in the past sorry.

One star only cause I had to. Today was the worst dining experience I’ve ever had. The food was horrible and the owners fingernails were black and wore disgusting clothing. Not only the food was horrible but the way the owner spoke to the only waitress in the place was appalling in front of his only customer. Then when the bill came he started adding in items and over charging me and still brought me my change two dollars short. This place should be called the negative 5 diner!

Only reason it got one star is cause I had to in order to leave a review. Food was tasteless, pancakes were burnt, scrambled eggs were over cooked, turkey bacon and sausage taste of freezer burn. Spent 6$ on a side of corned beef hash and the serving was no bigger than a flat burger patty and was also way over cooked and tasteless.. I wanted a hangover cure and this just made it worst. Spent 25 bucks on a breakfast that went straight into the garbage… Please just throw this whole place in the garbage. Thank you!
