The other day I was looking for sth nice to eat, but the other restaurants were either a little expensive with regular food, or that something was missing in their vibes.

Finally we decided to chill here because the interior is vintage and Christmassy, plus we get to sit at half outdoorsy area.

I looked up the food review here and was worried, but it turned out great!

We ordered a milkshake, it tasted yummy with real strawberries inside, and part of the mixture became an icecream.

then there’s the pork rib, sauce is good and also the meat was so tender. Potato wedges were better than expected too.

Nachos are decent as well, though can be better.

The thing is their menu looks really bad & discouraging.

Service was good too.

so if you are hesitating, just go try it
maybe skip the fish and chips, it’s big but you may be disappointed.

There were also holes in the batter too!

The batter was really weird and almost like a poppadum cracker wrapped round the fish.
It was not even stuck to the fish which was good.
Basically it was just like breaking off a shell on the fish and the batter was just a piece of thin tasty cracker!
As for the fish, I really liked it because it was firm cod that was really flakey.

Finally the chips were disappointing because according to the menu they were meant to be fat chips and these were just potato wedges.

Walked by here when we were on our way further down the street for a burger, the seats looked quite comfortable so came here instead (as the weather is not that great today and we didn't want to sit outside with the other burger joint).

Each dish is around $80 - $150 which is expensive for what it is... just burgers/hot dogs/sandwiches etc...

wasn't really craving any fatty foods so went for a Reuben sandwich, my colleague went for a roast beef sandwich with gravy

There was only one waitress in the whole diner, she looked very disgruntled and had an attitude when serving patrons.. this gave us a bad impression of the restaurant

The food took at least 20 minutes to arrive and by then we were starving
both dishes came with fries.

1. Roast Beef & Gravy sandwich (refer to pic)
2. Reuben Sandwich (Pastrami/Swiss Cheese)

The fries were the skinny cut kind and were just fried so hot n crunchy
The Reuben was what it is, normal, no big surprises
The roast beef with gravy was good but we thought it was weird that it had peas on it....

It was 12:45pm on a weekday, and only three tables were occupied, something is not right here.... they need to step up their game~

if your craving guilty fatty mac n cheese, burger type food, this place does give you that when we got seated, the place is rather dirty and greasy looking. and seated at the back of the rather cramped place, we could easily peer into the tiny aluminium kitchen and of course the washroom :Sthe table was also greasy and wet looking.Dishes were in generous american potions.Ordered:1.

if your craving guilty fatty mac n cheese, burger type food, this place does give you that

when we got seated, the place is rather dirty and greasy looking. and seated at the back of the rather cramped place, we could easily peer into the tiny aluminium kitchen and of course the washroom :S
the table was also greasy and wet looking.

Dishes were in generous american potions.
Ordered:
1. Mac n Cheese (came with side salad): this was funny as one half of the dish was a literally a brick of cheesy yummy pasta and the other would be clean green salad. ahhaha. i was glad they decided to put the dressing in a seperate cup instead of lathering what was left of a exceptionally healthy meal
. the mac and cheese was just what i wanted, but it was really served in a shape of the rectangle as if it came from a pre-prepared big pasta pie or some microwave container. in terms of taste, fatty food tastes good if your up for it. it won't be sth you compare with fine dining, but definitly a worthy guilty pleasure.

2. Fish n Chips:
big portion. i haven't had enough of battered crispy fish or deep-fried potatoes to know what the best ones can get. but i guess Al's did okay with it. but its a lot of carbs, which fills you up. and i don't think we actually finished the whole thing.

dipping the food with the Range dressing for the salad, alternating with mustard, ketchip or lemon. definitly allowed some variation.

overall the food was nth great, but if your having the munchies for sth heavy filling cheese type food, this will do.
service is not great, they are really understaffed and food may take a while.
as for pricing, its definitly not cheap. and personally í'd rather just hike up a bit more and eat as Jaspas. but all in all, Al's Diner is like any other place in that street. a place to go to if youre familiar with it.

the music playing in the background was kinda loud for chilling and chatting. but i guess if you get drinks on their open terrace area, it should be fine.
go here for their jello-shots or dancing on the tables. perhaps.

Two comments only:1. They only have one waiter serving 7-8 tables, I literally begged the guy to clean up the table for me;2. After your meal, you will have the smell of frech fries all over you for the rest of the day, as if you've been sitting in the kitchen for 10 hours.Food is fair but not cheap.Think twice before you walk in.

not the best place to be & the crowd gets rowdy after a few drinks. Service is not up to the average as well. Food's fine though. Everywhere's a little sticky.. Hate the aluminum decor.

琴晚同朋友黎左蘭桂坊扮鬼
玩得耐又企得耐見呢度難得有位坐即係坐低
同朋友夾埋三個人各自叫左一杯野
我同其中一個朋友本來係叫regular mix
但上枱時發現佢幫我地自動轉左為juice mix
雖然價錢唔係話貴左好多
只係比原來貴左10蛟
但講真咁樣做就真係唔o岩囉!

不過個氣氛真係唔錯既
不時都會有d唔同既英文歌播
有好多鬼佬鬼妹跳舞
睇到都想玩埋一份呀
幾正!
當晚亦撞到一個鬼佬佢話佢自己專登由澳洲黎香港玩萬聖節
今日先知原來香港人又多左個黃金週喎??

呢度逢週末都會以一眾舊歌為主題,會播出Beatles、Abba等的舊歌,大家一路飲一路跳,氣氛都幾正,喜歡舊野的不容錯過。歡樂時光啤酒無論生啤一杯或一支都只係廿幾蚊,在蘭桂坊來說算幾平。另餐廳供應的漢堡包都幾有水準,好多都用舊歌名來命名,如Great Pretender、Love Me Tender等,就咁睇個名唔係咁易估到個burger係咩內容,吃過後者係雞肉漢堡,有包有餡有配菜如蕃茄、生菜同薯條,份量係鬼佬size,味道都唔錯的。
