A diner from westchester Jun 18, 2010
The dirtiest place i have ever experienced,I don't understand why the health department has not caught their crap! no windows in bathroom there for no ventilation.There was poop on the bathroom floor etc every other time i went there, i cringe looking at the changing table wondering if mothers really use it.>8-O .The rugs are filthy and they have the nerve to seat you near the dirty bus station it smells so bad in the dinning room,look around you'll leave. The cups, plates and silverware questionable. In the winter there is no heat or hardly any, you must practically beg for it! and in the summer the same goes for the a.c...how many times would you like to have the runs? keep going there you will run to china!I get the whole convenience thing but my belly can't stomach it!To bad the Harbour House in Larchmont was open 24/7 i never got the runs from their eggs or anything...... Good luck, enjoy I had it!
A diner from New Rochelle, NY May 9, 2010
So it's mother's day and I decided to take my 2 daughters and 4 grandchildren to breakfast. When we arrive the diner was not busy, the hostess sat us down and walked away. Immediately after many large parties started to arrive. We were never given any menus but I told the hostess that we knew what we wanted to eat if we could just be introduced to our waitress so we could order. The waitress came 20 minutes later, 3 large families that arrived after us were on their way out. To make a long story short, it took 2 hours to finally get our meals plus coffee (which should have been served when we just walk in). The food arrived cold but we ate it for fear that returning it will take another hour. I did notice that all other customers that were served ahead of us were white and we were hispanic. But, I rather not think it was a racial thing. I will never eat there again and do not recommend this diner to anyone.

I have been eating at the Mirage for years. It is good for a quick relatively cheap meals, and haute cuisine is not to be expected. Some of the wait staff is nice (the younger ones) and the rest are just doing a job. This is very much the New York diner culture.
I found the first review interesting as I am not a person of color and have been waited on many times by Latin and African American staff, as well as the "white" staff. Oh, and yes the hosts don't give a darn who you are unless they know you and the service is spotty at best.So don't take it personally!
This is definitely not a place for gracious dining, but everyone in town (Mayor, Ministers, Professors, Moms, kids, Iona College students, local celebrities and business people, etc.) goes there because you get decent grub quickly and for a decent price.

It's a dirty place and horrible service to the point I felt discriminated.

Starting with the unfriendly hostess who simply pointed us to a table while she greeted and personally directed the three people behind us and who came after us and who received menus first! That was odd.
Anyway we proceeded to a table which we thought the hostess finger pointed but she soon slightly gruntly redirected us to an adjacent table and provided us with menus. The seats were covered with crumbs which we dusted-off ourselves. Within seconds a waiter came and he clearly did not look happy and basically threw the napkins on the table. During our stay we noticed another oddity, caucasian customers were attended by caucasian waiters and noncaucasian customers were attended by noncaucasian waiters. Now, it is not my purpose to be offensive but we all know this things still happen today; by the way the three people who arrived after us and who were seated first were caucasian. The waiters (mostly hispanic) looked annoyed and irritated, none smiled, the place simply did not have a pleasant environment. What annoyed me the most was when the hostess, while laughing and chatting with other top staff, looked and ignored my mother when she called for the bill. When we approached to pay, the cashier ignored us and walked away, a busboy loudly called the cashier telling him that we were waiting to pay!! We did not even get a slight “thanks for coming” from anybody.

Food came quick, tasteless hash browns, pancakes were bland.

I do not recommend the Mirage Diner.

    The Waterfront is an amazing restaurant! The service, the food, and the atmosphere is great. The baby back ribs are to-die-for, and so is the balboa! They just underwent some renovations during September-October. On a ni
