Traffic on I-95 near New Haven was pretty bad. When my wife spotted a sign along the highway for a local diner, she suggested that we should take a break and have some lunch⦠Seemed like a good idea! We finally arrived at Georgieâs Diner. It wasnât âexactlyâ right off the highway nor was it right on the road that we exited onto⦠But we persisted mostly because we love diners!Georgieâs Diner has that classic diner âlookâ. This structure was built in New Rochelle New York in 1956. From there it was moved to Stratford Connecticut. Finally, in 1967, the diner was moved here to West Haven Connecticut. George Anthis completely restored this diner in 2009, hence its name! We were lucky to find a parking place! This place is popularâ¦and like most diners, itâs not a huge space. The good news is that we ended up sitting at the counter right next to all the action. Many if not all of the waitresses had been working at Georgieâs for more than a couple of yearsâ¦and they knew what many of their âregularsâ wanted to eat before they sat down.I saw that they had Split Pea Soup on the menu as the daily soup du jour and I ordered a cup to accompany my lunch. It was very nice indeed⦠For my lunch I ordered the Grilled Reuben. ($12.50) I chose grilled pastrami over the optional corned beef. The sandwich included sauerkraut and melted Swiss cheese on Georgieâs fresh baked rye bread. Instead of Russian dressing I asked for spicy mustard. Grilling both the pastrami and the rye bread really made this sandwich pop! Happy taste buds resultedâ¦After perusing the menu, my better half decided to go for something thatâs hard to find in East Tennessee. This is Georgieâs Dinerâs version of a Philly Steak. ($12.99) The shaved beef sirloin was served on a large roll with cheese, grilled mushrooms and onions. It normally comes with peppers but she had them leave it off her sandwich. It was a big sandwich and my wife thought that it was pretty tasty too! A side came with her Philly Steak and she didnât feel like French fries. An unusual option on the Georgieâs Diner was tortilla chips and salsa. It was a nice change.If Georgie's was located anywhere near our home in East Tennessee, we'd be 'frequent diners'!

The BEST cakes and pies I have ever had. I believe they are all made in house. The coconut custard is my favorite. Other food is very good. You can get eggs anytime and they are always cooked exactly as you ordered. Over medium whites cooked...yolk not. perfect. Sandwiches are generous and delicious. Staff is very friendly. You feel like home when you dine there. Great place

Went there at lunch time on a Wednesday. There were 7 of us. Great menu. Food was excellent and service was good also. Definitely would recommend this place. Serving sizes were generous and the quality was great. Didn't have room for dessert but the offerings in the dessert case were very tempting. If you're in the neighborhood, this is a place well worth the visit.
