Breakfast food is exceptional! The old school jukeboxes still work, put your quarters to use & play 'Johnny used to work on the docks' or "like a prayer"! & Tip well , Imagine the antics they deal with

I went to Ritter's Diner with my relatives on May 8, 2017. The place was fantastic ... and so was the food! The service was also fantastic!

A rollback to diners of old with a twist. 24/7 service and a big diner menu. Check out the peanut butter pancakes or try the Greek breakfast . For dessert don't miss the butterscotch cream pie .

George Maier

Best greasy food (in a very good way) ever! Seriously!

Emily Brimmer

The spinach and feta omelette is seriously the best! And don't forget to ask for the cinnamon toast-it's not on the menu :)

Best after 2am. All kindsa good people watching . Food: friend green tomatoes , shakes , pierogies (swimming in butter of course). Don't get the spinach feta omelet . Spinach is like canned from popeye!

Travis Stormer

The Reuben Omelette was excellent and the service was very friendly . Classic diner interior style, too.

STEVE BLAKE

Sit at the counter - the interactions between waitresses , kitchen staff , management & regulars would make a top 10 cable reality show!

Chet Jack

If you notice that a grumpy guy is supervising the kitchen (not sure if he still works there), grab a counter seat . He puts on a great show. Kind of like dinner theater .

Order the Smores Pancakes or Ritter's Melt.

Jammi Calhoun

Food is ok. Portions could be better. Some staff appeared to be a little racist. Waitress rushed me to order and then left before I could decide on a drink. Horrible experience. Won't be back.

lisa cunningham

bring quarters for the tabletop jukebox , bring cash for the bill, and whatever you do, don't get the sausage .

I take all my foreign friends here to experience a typical American diner -- surly waitresses , outdated decor and average food. It's open 24 hours , so I find myself there a in the middle of the night.

Ulyana

the only place around open at 5am. waitress had no teeth.

Chris Smith

Don't accept credit cards and could not figure out how to split a check... food was average diner fare ... rude waitress stole my ketchup without asking... it was surreal.

Erik Larson
