  “We came for the first time on our way to the airport. We sat outside and it was lovely. So pleasantly surprised that everything we ordered was wonderful enough to order again. Our server was also so friendly and helpful! Highly recommend!”

  “Definitely try this diner. It seems as if the majority of their food is actually made from scratch, in house. As per our incredible waitress Allison (and Alex), if it's not made in house, it is sourced locally. …”

  “We ordered to go and we got there before it was ready ate it right away and somehow everything tasted old and cold. The bumblebee was so dry the fries were soggy and cold the pulled pork tasted very strange. The mac was good. Service was rude”

  “Spent a week in Sedona and flew out of Phoenix, but before we left we had lunch at Welcome Diner and each person in our group of 4 said we would come back. Friendly service, veg options, and delicious food. So close to the Phoenix airport so highly recommend!”

  “Friendly staff and welcoming environment. Parking was easy when I went, but I can see how it might get tricky. It is mainly street parking. …”

  “A modern diner with a good selection of classic American dishes. The pancakes were amazing and typically American-style. They are cooked perfectly, with a golden, caramelized exterior and thick, fluffy interior. The seasonal blueberry compote was made with fresh blueberries, so it is not too sweet, and this lets you adjust the sweetness with the maple syrup. The sea salt chocolate pie is great as well. The chocolate is dark and high quality, with a nice amount of saltiness. The caramel sugar filling is creamy and not extremely sweet. There are a good amount of pecans, but the flavor is way outshined by the chocolate. The Bumblebee is great: perfectly crunchy, yet moist buttermilk fried chicken. The mustard balances with acidity and spice, and the honey adds sweetness. Unfortunately, the biscuit is constructed as a sandwich, so without the sauce the top biscuit is dry. It also isn't traditionally prepared and uses cornmeal, so maybe this adds to the textural issue. The staff is minimally nice. They do not make small talk or stay longer than just taking orders or bringing food. Limited seating.”

  “Biscuits and sausage gravy here are amazing. Great service . Reminds me of the small town diner in Illinois. Home in the middle of Phoenix. Definitely a local secret”

  “What a neat place in a great location. The patio and the huge windows show off a scene that feels like you're not in a desert. Interesting and vast food/drink menus with an incredibly nice staff. The potatoes made my breakfast worth it but can't wait to go back for dinner.”

  “The food was Amazing. The Welcome Diner reminded me of when I was a kid in a small town in Indiana. Who would've thought Phoenix, AZ would have such a Diner. Staff were Awesome. The Atmosphere was Great. A Must go to. The portions are really big.”
