Betty Boop Diner

Betty’s has changed, but not for the better. They aren’t serving dinner anymore, their online menu is nothing like what they have in the diner, and the space was overly warm (no AC) and a bit shabby. I had a Chef’s Salad (listed at least three times on the menu) — lettuce, pale tomatoes, a nice amount of roast beef and swiss, chopped ham, a few sliced shrooms, red pepper, two large strawberries — a bit strange and not really worth the $ 9.95. FF’s meatball and pasta was tasty — soft meat/​tender, and a delicious red sauce. Red went easy with two poached eggs, done perfectly.
They wouldn’t honor my Living Social coupon — the waitress was a bit snippy about it — but LS refunded my purchase, so that was good.

The seating is limited at the Betty Boop. But you will not be disappointed with the quality of the food everything was great. Staff was friendly attentive. The one downside about Betty Boop Café they do not take credit cards so make sure you bring some cash everything’s pretty reasonably priced two people can probably eat for $ 25.

The breakfasts are always huge and cheap, the bread is amazing. Our favorite hole in the wall diner for sure.

Had French toast and my daughter had pancakes. The portions were large and price was reasonable. I highly recommend. It’s a cute place too!

Excellent food and great service. Betty Boop was everywhere and i loved it. Its a husband and wife team and they are extremely welcoming. Servings are good.

On recent visits to Betty’s the food and service has been inconsistent. Not sure if it is who’s working or the day, but not know which version of Betty’s I’ll get makes me less likely to go or recommend it to others.

I’m so happy our new house is two blocks away from Betty Boop. It’s a great neighborhood joint. Good, quick, affordable food. We just enjoyed a solid breakfast of the homemade corned beef hash, eggs, home fries and a short stack of pancakes. I’m snobby about hash and home fries, and I think both deserve a five star rating. My wife is a coffee addict and declared this the best diner coffee in town.
We also enjoyed the faithful carrying out of the Betty Boop theme. It’s kitschy, but provides for a warm and friendly atmosphere. Shame on the person who threw a rock and damaged he hand-​painted Boop image in the window. I hope more people patronize this place so they can get that fixed.

Excellent breakfast. Prepared well and plenty. Great prices. Very cute space done well. You will enjoy it.

Unfortunately, this place has taken a turn for the worst. From what I heard, I believe they may have had a change in management, or chef. I came here, really wanting to have an enjoyable experience.
The service was slow and inattentive, being one of only two tables, and our orders were messed up. The server then debated with my friend that she gave him what he ordered. This was not true. Good home fries should be crisp and well-​seasoned. The ones we received were neither of those. The only thing that saved this experience was the french toast, that seemed to stick true to my last experience here.
I can’t say that I’ll be back again.

I ordered eggs. It took an hour for the food to come. Plus, the server was very rude and clearly had some mental health issues

My wife and daughters raved about this place! When we got there 6÷1÷2015 for breakfast it was no one in the place! We said cool we sat down it took the waitress 10’minutes to get to us and another 15 to order food! I ordered corn beef hash eggs over easy with American cheese! Not only were my eggs cooked wrong it had no cheese in it, the waitress brought my plate of food to the table and said oh yeah you were suppose to have cheese on your eggs, she then brought it back to the kitchen where the cook named MO (reminds me of one of the three stooges) put cheese on my eggs the same shitty eggs they were brought out the first time to me! The corn beef was lunch meat chopped up into small pieces with some watery potatoes! My wife had the country fried steak it was as big as a baseball tough as all hell the gravy looked like wall paper paste! She had two bites of it and that was it! I took one bite of mine food spit it in the napkin and that was the ball game folks! Our bill came to 23.95 I left a 10 dollar tip! I picked our son up and walked out! The lady asked my wife when I left out he did not like the food he didn’t touch anything on the plate! As I walked out Mo was coming out the side kitchen door he couldn’t look me in my face he turned and went back in the entrance of the kitchen! Never again will I ever eat there again! I heard when the parent are there cooking the food is great! I’m not giving it another try! Get rid of MO, my 90 year old grandmother can out cook his ass! This is coming from a chef who’s been in the business for 25 years, I’m not toting my own horn but come on, Magen I started out as a breakfast cook I sucked! I got better now I’m great, Mo do yourself a favor get some books watch a few YouTube videos! Take some culinary classes and maybe just maybe you will make a great breakfast

So So Disappointed today because I feel like I was taken advantage of and many others there probably were as well.
Last weekend I had no problem using one of my deals I had but this weekend they decide to change the rules on a Double Take/​Local Flavour because the owner said that the service has been slow on weekdays and busier on the weekends and she said she called to tell Double Takes of the change but I didn’t see it noted online and not sure if I got an email about it
We didn’t know she wasn’t accepting Dounbletake until we were done eating breakfast and when I than presented the deal they refused to accept it. I believe the owner was deceitful by making you to come back on a weekday to use it and get you back there to spend more money. She sure made out well having me buy the discounts because I didn’t benefit from it at all since last week our receipt was around $ 12 and I had paid $ 10 and the deal was worth $ 20 and since I won’t now go back I lose another $ 10 on the second deal purchase.
There is no reason why she couldn’t have just accepted the deal, The restaurant wasn’t busy today by any means. What the owner was doing wasn’t right at all. I do believe it was an intentional because those deals are good for like 6 months and right before they expire the business decides to not accept it on weekends, I don’t think so.
I decided to go here with my parents for a treat since I had a deal to use up by Monday. But who ended up paying for the meal; my dad since he felt horrible for me and the way I was treated. I told the waitress how I felt and she was very gracious and tried to assist and deserves praise for even working there.
What they ended up doing to us and others is down right disgraceful and I won’t be back ever and I have been been here numerous times. Always wanted to go to dinner also but now that isn’t going to happen.
Because the business doesn’t care for their customers and doesn’t have good business sense is why I am giving them only one star today and no more of my business.

I dont normally write reviews. There was a couple things wrong with the service i received today. First i called and asked if they were pack and was told they had a table for me and i said i would be there within 20 min. When i arrived they asked me if i call, i said yes and was immediately seated. a plus…
Now me and my pregnant wife were asked as soon as we sat down what we wanted to drink and told someone would be right with us. As we waited a whole hour i watched who i thought to be the owner and two other woman one in her twenties and another in her fifties run around trying to serve tables. I witnessed a group come in and get seated while another group that was waiting half an hour get over looked. Finally i asked the fifties something waitress if i could get service and she said she would be right back. She went over to her boss walking around in a white dress and they seem to be dumb founded as to us not being waited on. Instead of the older lady getting our order 5 minutes later they sent the young twenty year old over who then took our order…
Now i sat for an hour while i watched tables after me get food and drink, while i looked in the face of all three of these ladies as they walked back and forth of my table.
i waited an additional hour for my food to finally get to my table. the extremely said part is, my steak was tough and dry, my potatoes were an extremely little portion and the cheese on my eggs looks like they threw it on it as it was walking out the door. My pregnant wife’s food was burnt. the hash was way over cooked to the point i didn’t even try to eat it off her plate and i eat every thing. The only thing she was able to eat was my short stack which was a little burnt as well…
I said it today… no not again, never will be me. Now being a cook my self i did see room for improvement but the dis-​organization of the front of the house to me shows the craziness and dis-​organization of the back of the house.

Customers Be Warned of the terrible service!
The good reviews has to be family, friends, they paid someone or the owner
The only and only good thing that Betty Boop has going is the generous portions with reasonable prices.
Aside from that, the staff will keep coming to the table until the customer/​s are ready to order but once your food arrives they are not attentive at all. A customer would be lucky if they ask for more water or a napkin and actually get one.
Speaking of water the waitress had the audacity to say «all you ask for is water, we have other beverages», WTF!
This has been my 4^th and last time since I was yelled at in front of seated customers after I complained but the owner waited until paid the bill. She treated me like I was begging or did not want to pay, I was embarrassed at the way I was treated and my wife was sitting with her jaw dropped in aww with her eyes bulging as to what happened.
Me: The service was slow and me and my wife’s food was not given to us as ordered nor was it good!
Owner: «get out of my restaurant» and «you are not welcomed here»
I have only eaten @ Betty Boop’s 4 times: I would order the Country Fried Steak (Thick, Tasty and Moist), 3 Scrambled eggs w/​cheese (Fluffy and Good), Hashbrowns (Good) and Whole Wheat Toast lightly buttered (Ok).
My final visit: The same order but the Country Fried Steak (Tough, Dry and NO Flavor), it didn’t seem and taste like 3 Scrambled eggs (it was overcooked and no cheese, I asked for cheese and the waitress took my plate and roller her eyes, brought back the eggs with cheese but it was not melted and cold), Hashbrowns (Overcooked and Crunchy enough that it cut the inside of my mouth) and Whole Wheat Toast (Dry, felt like sandpaper and it was lightly buttered too).
My wife hates there coffee despite that she ordered the 3 huge Pancakes w/​Butter and not crispy bacon or soft, the waitress took her plate and came back with 2 pieces of curled up bacon that looked like they were end of the grill waiting to be given to a poor unfortunate soul instead of 4 burnt ones.
Wife: Coffee taste grainy
Wife: Pancakes were Dry and Not tTasty, the bacon was burnt
Wife: Raises her hand
Waitress: Comes over
Wife: I asked for not crispy bacon or soft
Waitress: Takes the plate and rolls her eyes while snapping her gum loud
Waitress: Brings back the bacon and not in a nice way!
Wife: What is that?
Waitress: You wanted soft bacon or not crispy bacon
Wife: That does not look like soft bacon and why is it curled?
Waitress: It was on the grill and we have no more bacon cooked yet so you would have to wait for 2 more soft pieces.
Wife: Was in shock that she was told that
That is when we had enough and decided to leave and like other customers who gave Betty Boop a bad or negative review will not return as well and will let others know of the horrible, no class, unprofessional, can’t take correct orders and criticism and let’s not forget the Not So Tasty Food.
Betty Boop Boop be Doop, I will pop open a bottle of champagne when you finally close for good riddance, you are a disgrace to the restaurant/​diner industry!

Pretty good classic diner food. Nothing fancy or pretentious about the place. You can get a massive amount of food for an some unbelievably low prices. I’ve gone twice now, once for breakfast, the other for lunch. I was pleased both times, but honestly the lunch took the cake. My chicken sandwich was MASSIVE. At least six inches high, an entire chicken breast, good cheese, a ripe tomato, delicious pesto mayo, and well done crinkle cut fries. I think it was 8 dollars. I honestly don’t know how they can make enough money to be worth it. Huge omelets, delicious bacon, and piles of pancakes and waffles.
The place is small, and it can get packed on a Saturday or Sunday morning. Service both times has been a little slow, and total time spent there was close to an hour, so keep that in mind.
Both times I’ve gone there the credit card machine was down and the ATM was out of order. I’d bring cash just in case. Regardless, head over there next time you’re craving a massive breakfast for as cheap as it gets in the area.

In the past year I have been to this diner multiple times, and both the service and the food has been consistently inconsistent. You never know if you’re going to be waited on by fast friendly servers, overwhelmed and negligent ones, or ignored by young kids on their phones behind the counters.
This morning was Betty Boop’s Last «last chance».
There have been raw pancakes, and long waits, cold toast; so I feel as though I have been more than fair in giving them a chance to win me over. I live less than two blocks away and it would be so awesome if it was actually good.
This morning we went at 11 and were seated at a dirty table, (which was bussed, don’t misunderstand, it was just dirty with «fresh» silverware, including two dirty knives); one of only 2 open tables as the diner was full of people already eating. When it came time to take our orders I ordered eggs Benedict for the first time there, and my boyfriend ordered a country fried steak, and the waitress asked «how he’d like it cooked»…ummm??? What??? So his mother orders eggs with wheat toast and he Orders white toast and the waitress says «wow, everyone’s getting wheat today» and hurries off before we can correct her. So for the next HOUR we wait, three cups of coffee, several reassurances that «our food’s up next» and we watch as other tables seated after us are served and a table who was seated before us waits patiently, another table of 5 was served one plate at a time. At one point every table was full and only ONE had been served. During this time several parties stepped in and right back out again upon seeing the wait. The people behind us sat at least 10 minutes before having their drink order taken, and due to their disorganized «sit where ever you like» style seating an elderly gentleman sat himself to later be moved to a small corner table. On the hour we stood up and put our coats on to go and were assured that our food was done, and do we still want it, to which his mothers response was as long as it’s really done and the toast Isn’t cold. So another 5 minutes passes and the waitress comes out with two plates, and it actually was country fried steak, and then brings out my eggs Benedict… On wheat toast??? And a large plate of their two orders of «wheat» toast which was undercooked, scantily buttered and so clearly re-​made that it was just sad. It’s obvious that my English muffin was cold hence the wheat bread substitute, which honestly was tasty and inventive, but not what I ordered. The home fries were good as usual and the coffee was basic mediocre diner coffee you’d come to expect from any diner dive. When the meal of the people seated next to us who waited over an hot arrived we couldn’t help but notice it was basic sausage and eggs, nothing fancy, what on earth could have taken so long is a mystery to me. This visit was a lot like thanksgiving, wait all morning and finish the meal in 10 minutes.
I know I am writing a small novel here, but I think it’s imperative for businesses to know that when you are serving your guests, you are serving real people with jobs, which may or may not be in the food service industry, and they fully understand what a rush is, and how difficult it can be to keep up, and further more they are aware of when they are being mistreated. This establishment is so deeply flawed that I am almost certain a large portion of the positive reviews here are personal friends of the family. And understandably so. I have witnessed excellent customer service to patrons who appear to have a report with the owner, but beyond that it’s Russian roulette. I am also aware that this detailed account makes it quite obvious exactly who I am and which table I was at, but that’s ok.
I am never stepping foot in Betty Boop’s Diner again.

1^st time visiting this AM. Food was ok, but kinda tasteless, (eggs Benedict) should have more lemon, hash browns great. Other guest with me were very happy All in all will go again sometime
The biggest disappointment was the COFFEE! How does a diner not have good coffee. Seriously bad and I honestly don’t think its me. Next time tea!

One of the nicest things about Betty Boop is the owner Theresa and her staff. They’re always very helpful and are fun. I suggest the eggplant parm (homemade) or the greens and beans. Enough for two meals.

+++
— Mom and pop environment, the owner is a waitress and she really knows her customers
— Food feels very homemade, like your eating breakfast at a friend’s mom’s house
++
— HUGE!!! portions, one Betty Boop pancake is the equivalent of 3 regular pancakes, I’m not lying when I tell you, I ate breakfast three more times from this meal
— Blueberry pancakes had real blueberries in them
— The décor is nice and fun, Betty Boop all over the place
+
— Potatoes were well seasoned
— Very inexpensive

Bettie’s is a good local diner. Its location is very convenient. Food is good and bad. I figured it out. If you order a meal and it’s cook by the elder guy that owns the place. Then you should have a great meal. Problem is, It’s a family business and when mom and pops are out the diner its ran by the sons. If you had a bad meal most likely it was the sons who prepared it.
When I go there now I immediately look at the cooks. If it’s the elders I’ll order. If it’s the sons, I grab a to go menu to make it look good
