      Yummmmyyy food and excellent service. The perfect American diner with delicious breakfast with huge portion sizes.

      Everything we ordered - pancakes, French toast, burger, omelette was delicious and filling. We could mix and match to get a variety of 3 pancakes served with fresh fruit and a dollop of whipped cream. Hash browns were perfectly crispy and came in a huge portion for a side plate.

      There's a separate menu for kids and they even had crayons and paper to keep kids engaged.

      Our host and server were very friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend this diner during your travels as it's super close to the Denver airport.

      At best it was just ok , the server was distracted with her phone as she was having an argument with her boyfriend .

      CFS was chewy so I pretty much left it on the plate . Sides were good and ice tea was clean and fresh . Being an unsweet ice tea drinker it's rare to get a fresh glass .

      It's a very cute place and if I was in the area I would try something new

      My husband and I have traveled the 30 minute drive to get to this restaurant a couple times over the last two years and had a good experience each time. Tonight was so disappointing and we will probably not return. We were seated at 6pm, it was busy for a Saturday night but there was only about a ten minute wait. Once seated we ordered drinks and then didn't see our server for quite some time. Once the drinks arrived I asked for creamer - which never came and I had to ask a second time when I had to stop him as he zipped by. Coffee is now luke warm. We (2) each ordered a simple breakfast plate and then the wait began. We sat there smack dab in the middle for an hour while other patrons, with way more people at their table than us, received their food and then their bills. All the while our waiter passed us without so much as a glance.
      We finally got up and asked for the bill to pay for our coffee and soda. Moments later the waiter came with the bill explaining that "it's gonna be ready right now." And then offered to give us a discount. We declined and left hungry and disappointed. Long drive back home and ended up going to a drive thru near our house.
      I would have had more grace in this situation as I know mistakes do happen, but he was not welcoming from the jump so it made it difficult to sympathize.

      We strolled in on a Friday morning - it was busy!! It's a school looking dinner - all silver metal outside.

      I'm kind of a plain breakfast lover so I was good with eggs, bacon, hash brown potatoes, and toast. You get a choice of wheat, white, sourdough so I got sourdough. The bacon was super crispy - the way I like it. My eggs were cooked as requested.

      Our waitress was very attentive. She made sure to keep our coffees filled and we never felt rushed even though we sat and did some work for a couple hours. Really enjoyed this place and it so close to the airport here so definitely a good pit stop.

      Fun diner, with nice fresh upholstery and throwback advertisements on the wall.

      I had these signature salad and it had everything in it besides an egg. Even pineapple in it.

      We had a table of seven, and all the food arrived at the same time.
      There were a couple water glasses that were empty about 10 to 15 minutes before we were done that were not refilled.

      Associates, taking our order and dropping off the food. We're all very courteous and polite.

      My local friends say that they have never had anything from here that wasn't great.

      They also have an enclosed outdoor seating.

      Fun place to check out with great Food!!

      Busy little diner. At least when we arrived for Breakfast on a Monday morning. Parking was somewhat limited but luckily found a spot as soon as we arrived. We were seated within 5 minutes of walking up to the counter. The menu was huge. They serve breakfast, lunch, dinner (BBQ) and even liquor. Woah. I ordered breakfast and it was a lot. Was only able to finish about half of it before asking for a to-go box. It was decent. The coffee was not hitting the spot. Probably a 2 on a scale of 5. My son ordered the butter noodles and it was disgusting. That shouldn't be hard to mess up but it was. Service was great and they were quick. The views were awesome. We are from Florida and don't get these kind of views while eating.

      For it being the only establishment around it's fine. We ordered the meatloaf with a side of sweet potato's and Mac n cheese, unimpressive. Along with the Turkey Back Wrap with a side of sweet potato's. The potato's were the worst! Completely mushy. The Mac n cheese was the best thing about the meal. Would recommend the turkey bacon wrap again but will stay clear of any type of fry. At the end we went with an Oreo shake to go and it was delicious!

      You get that true diner ambiance which is super cute.

      The service was okay. Everyone was friendly but they were packed and not staffed well.

      Stopped by here for dinner after flying into DIAand was pleasantly surprised at the menu selection and food we ordered. Very large menu selection, reasonable prices, and portion sizes are huge (we should have split a plate and add a side if needed). The chicken fried chicken with 2 sides (salad and mashed potatoes) and meat loaf sandwich with clam chowder were all very good. We got seated immediately, and dervice was fast, friendly and attentive. Only downfall was the dinner roll was dry.

      This old school flare of a restaurant is what a Diner is supposed to be. Memorabilia of the 50's - 60's - 70's etc all on the wall. Diner style bar, tables and seats.

      I came here in October and LOVE the Margarita flight and last night my friend purchased the mimosa flight which was just as amazing. I came back for the Breakfast Colorado (braised pork in red chili) that came shredded with eggs & potatoes. melted cheese on the side & a tortilla. DELICIOUS!!

      This review is shout out my server Zahra. Attentive, friendly, had her favorites to recommend, made my mango margarita and overall made my experience great. Thank you.

      If you're a diner fan like me you will appreciate Moonlight Diner Just a few miles from Denver Airport, make it a stop before departure. I ordered the 8 oz steak medium with 3 scrambled eggs with a side of green chile which was very good. The steak was cooked correctly and complimented the eggs which were fluffy and tasty. Service was prompt and friendly. The ambiance was spot on 1950s down to the chrome and plastic seat covers.
