I’ve been coming here for years. Always a fun time! Food is good, staff is pleasant, the movies are great with all the quotes and memorabilia. Also the diner is in the movie Psychogoreman! The specials are always on point and typically themed.

Service was immaculate, Conner was very quick and concise with his service. Very knowledgeable of the menu and had perfect recommendations. Will definitely be coming back thanks to Conner's great service and of course because the food was amazing! 10/10 experience

We loved this diner and it was fascinating to look at all of the movie items. The staff was great and the menu is so fun to look at with the movie references that are incorporated into the item names. The portions were generous. I was also impressed at all the cleaning that was done at the end of the shift in mid afternoon.

I want to start by saying this is an opinion of a South georgia boy. Which makes all the difference when it comes to food. The pitcher you see of the building doesn't give you a clear idea. The building is very small and compact. Basically, movie themed wallpaper pictures decor. Very friendly staff and great service. We ordered the banana bread french toast. Basically, you're eating a slice of banana bread with syrup on it. There's not enough egg coating. It had a good flavor. But not the french toast. My wife had a breakfast bowl.Coach tags over potatoes with holiday sauce. Too many potatoes, basic flavor, everything was okay . I am a food connoisseur, and so it wasn't anything that jumped out and made you go wow.

An amazing breakfast experience! Has that classic diner feel with a movie theme! I had the Pig Lebowski to try all the meats. The bacon here is by far my favorite. The eggs were a highlight as well. The low light of my meal was definitely the quality of the syrup for the sausages and the sausage with themselves. It tasted very cheap and didn't add to my meal and the sausages were overcooked. The menu was a blast to navigate and overall a great experience.

So. The atmosphere was top notch, very fun, amazing food names and also playing awesome movies. The service, not so much. We were waiting a while for our drinks and it wasn't busy at all. No one came to check on us throughout the meal. No one asked why 3/4 of the meal was still on the plate at the end. The food; great presentation, not so great quality. All the potato products were unpleasantly undercooked (fries and home fries), I couldn't eat more than 5 or 6. The French toast wasn't edible. It basically tasted like soggy bread with egg mixed in. The bacon and eggs were ok tho. Unfortunately, as fun as the environment was. The food wasn't worth the 50$ we spent, or worth us returning.

Good service, loved the pancakes but I didn't like how the eggs was cooked. But we will be back coz of the pancakes. Also, servers are very polite & attentive to our needs like coffee refill etc. This place is worth going back with family & friends 👍👍👍

It is not often that you find a real gem, like Lester D’s. My wife and I have been to this establishment many times over the last 2 months and it never fails to meet our expectations. Keep in mind this establishment is a Diner, however it is not your typical run of the mill diner. This mornings breakfast trip, to what is becoming a regular stop, for my wife and I, once again lived up to our expectations. I had Banana Bread French toast served with Ham and a bowl of fresh fruit, my wife enjoyed a Breakfast Clubhouse Sandwich served with home fries and a side of sausage. The Banana Bread French toast was awesome and, the fresh fruit was nice touch, much better than the prepackaged or frozen mixed fruit that is often used in other establishments. My wife enjoyed the Clubhouse, they did not skimp on the bacon. If your into movies and memorabilia, this is the place for you. There are always movies playing on the 2 large screen TVs, all of the dishes on the menu have movie related names, so be sure to read them carefully. The staff has always been friendly, keeping in mind that this place can get quite busy. They no longer provide plastic straws with their beverages, this is also a nice touch, and environmentally conscious. I was also pleased to see the “we honour or fallen hero’s” sticker in the window, a topic that is near and dear to my heart. The bill for this mornings visit came to about 39.50 before tip. That included 2 cups of coffee with 2 refills a piece.
