Golden Eagle is the definition of no frills – it's been on Morris Park Ave for ages and is definitely one of those go-to places for the locals in the neighborhood.
The restaurant is not huge, but still a decent size – it has that classic diner look with booths, a large counter with seating, and TVs playing. I will say it's a little dated – the carpets and booths have that floral print that was popular around 20 or so years ago. They still write out their orders on paper receipts and have that old-school cash register – a real throwback.
I usually go simple in diners; I had the turkey club which came with fries and a pickle with cole slaw. The sandwich was good – the bread was toasted and didn't fall apart when I took a bite and was tasty overall.
Definitely a good place to go if you want to stay local – the food is decent and the people are friendly – not much more you can ask from a diner.
Back when I lived in the neighborhood, this was the "go to" diner. It never was one of my faves as far as the food goes but I must say, I was pleasantly surprised last visit! Big improvement!! Was in the neighborhood a few Sunday's ago & dropped in for dinner. I ordered the spinach pie with greek salad. The spinach pie was very good. I think they could've done a little better with the greek salad though. Overall, the meal was pretty damn good! My boyfriend had the ham steak with grilled pineapples & my godfather had the hot meatloaf open sandwich. Everyone really enjoyed their food. I even sampled the other dishes (so I could write a fair review *wink*). Mmm mmm good! And the plates were ENORMOUS! We were seated in a booth & there was hardly enough room for everything! Seriously… I was literally laughing out loud at the sight of it!! The waitress offered to pull over an extra table so we could spread it all out! How embarrassing…
Anyway, a minor problem with the bread/bread plates. When the bread was served we noticed it had a bit of a wet spot on one end. It was obvious that something dripped on it. Maybe just water but we didn't bother sending it back. Just took a few slices from the other end. We had a lot of food coming & didn't want to fill up on bread. The bread was very good though – little warm loaves (with butter if you like). I also noticed the serving plates had something stuck to them that I just wiped off with a napkin. My hope was that since it was a little later in the evening & they were semi-near to closing time, maybe they were overlooking things… I hope that's it anyway…
Service was pretty good. The wait staff is extremely nice! Would I go again if back in the area? Most definitely!
Sunning eggs, home fries, bacon and toasted with butter made my Sunday brunch my day. The familiar environment, waitress treat you as if you were home, and their coffee love it. This dinner make me feel home.
If you love diners as much as I do, then look no further!!!! Golden eagle is your perfect, local, all-American diner with a robust menu catering to any and all of your cravings. Perfect for a small gathering or large groups, there's a table for everyone!!!
I came with a group of 14 and we were accommodated right away in a room just off of the main dining area, it was perfect. The service was excellent and although being a large group and in a separate dining area we never felt neglected or forgotten about.
I ordered the chicken and avocado wrap, which was rather bland and, well…. We'll leave it at that, but the challah French toast with Nutella looked delicious and was among the favorites ordered today. I'm told the lox platter was great, and although the bagel was plain, the lox was fresh and tasty which made up for it!
They deliver too!
Note: I'm giving 4 stars not because it's the best food I have ever eaten, but for a local diner, in the Bronx – it's pretty perfect!!
There's 2 Golden Eagle Diners on Morris Park? Yep.
Is there one better then the other? Nope.
Do they both have "A's" and good food? Yep.
Why are there 2 diners of the same name on the same block? no CLUE.
Did that help?
