What Ruth Hoffman doesn't like about Dean's Diner:
We had the "fine young cannibals" as well as the "double fantasy" burgers with a side of chips. Both burgers were tastelesss, lacking in any of the ordered sauces. The bun was not toasted or even warmed and the chips were lacking in the ordered chicken salt. Admittedly we arrived just before closing time but if you can't be bothered delivering your product properly just close a bit earlier.Could not recommend! View all feedback. What Almostgreynomad likes about Dean's Diner:
I work in Ireland been craving a proper (Aussie) burger ! With beetroot, pineapple cooked onion. Probably the best burger I have ever had ! .... well definitely in the top 3 (ever) ! Not flashy ..... proper old school 'milk bar ' ! Can 't get a burger like this in Ireland or UK !!! View all feedback.

Despite this, some customers still appreciate the classic, old-school vibe of the restaurant and the friendly service.
