In the area for work and stopped by the Red Line Diner while in town and had an amazing dinner. Walking through the front door you are instantly transported back in time. The me I is expansive so make sure to take you time. I chose the open face roast beef sandwich and was not disappointed. The staff was very courteous and attentive and I had a great dinner. I wish I would have visited sooner during my trip as there is a few items I want to try next time I’m in the area.

They have so much great food on the menu. I had the Bronzino special, and it was amazing! They also have the best chicken parmesan I have ever had. Do yourself a favor and save room for one of their fantastic deserts. You will see them all as you walk past the case.

Excellent classic American style dinner. With excellent food, big portions and average prices. The ambience is nice and super clean and the staff was friendly and very attentive. Our waitress was very patient with us, a group of all friends that got together after 2 years and talking took forever to decide our foods and place the order. After that the service was really fast.

This place is fantastic. Usually diners have the same old burgers and fries and breakfast. This place has so much more to offer. I got the chicken parmigana and it was extremely good. Smothered in cheese to where you couldnt even see the chicken. My wife got a panini and agreed at the quality of food. Highly recommend this diner on your trip through fishkill!

what a cute spot that is extremely loved by the locals! i've been here a couple times, and the food never disappoints. i recently came in on a sunday afternoon, where it was evident how loved this place is; it was so packed!! despite this, they made an effort to sit us quickly. shout out to our server as well; i wish i had gotten her name! she was clearly slammed by the crowd, but still made an effort to be friendly and attentive. and the food is delicious! i think the vegetarian omelette is probably the best in dutchess county. good home fries too. it makes me sad i'm so far from this place cus i would love to eat here more often!

One of the best diners I've ever been to. Place was packed on a Monday night. Had counter service. Waitstaff was right on it. Had the Paella special, it was amazing. Their apple pie is almost as good as my mom's. Full style interior with great midern classic American diner design. Teleworking, stainless steel, and over the top lighting. Definitely worth getting off the interstate for this one!

This place doesn’t need another review since it’s so well known in the area, but it definitely deserves another one! This has got to be one of the best diners in NYS. You’ve got to see it and eat it to believe it. It’s huge yet service is brisk and attentive. The menu is extensive. You’ll be spoilt for choice. The portions are massive and reasonably priced. But above all, the food is excellent and well prepared with quality ingredients. My pot roast was so tender and paired well with the tartness of the red cabbage. The potato pancakes (like latkes) were perfectly light and crisp. The chicken parm was tender and with just the right amount of cheese. We were too full to have desert but enjoyed admiring the cake fridge.

Work had an end of year luncheon here today. The diner is beautiful, red and silver -modern decor and spacious. Food was well prepared and for the most part tasty.y co-workers all stated they enjoyed their food and was flavorful. I ordered a mushroom bacon burger and it wasn't bad- they forgot the mushrooms. The gravy for my disco fries was a scrumptious surprise, beefy and seasoned very well, best part of my lunch for sure! The kind of gravy that makes you wish you could drink it 🤣. The dessert menu was extensive with me many things made me on site- like the fresh strawberry cheesecake, and red velvet cake, as well as the tiramisu. I had a nepolian and it was super flaky with a delicious,decadent vanilla cream. I really enjoyed it! Overall I think this is a place I'd like to visit again and try the chicken franchise. Staff was attentive and friendly.
