Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

40.74619 -73.94569 on the intersection of the 7, G, E and M trains at the three Court Square subway stations in Long Island City, Queens NY, this 24-hours open diner serves all-day breakfast, salads, sandwiches, burgers and desserts and diner with chicken, fish & wings,...steaks & chops, appetisers & roasts, sauté specialities, Greek & Italian specialities and upscale seafood. If not on the menu, it will serve any request. In May 2023, we ordered stuffed salmon fillet with broccoli and fries on the side. The cold Stella Artois tasted excellent. The restaurant serves the food ordered quickly in large quantities, but don’t expect delicate flavours. Its main aim is to fill your empty stomach with plenty of calories. It does that well. Court Square Diner is an authentic diner for the experience.More

Went there about 1030 pm. It was a short distance from the hotel. It was very hot in there. Service was super slow. Got a meatloaf sandwich and it just wasn’t the meatloaf I was used to. Son got chicken wings and they were okay....Daughter got cereal. Cannot remember what others got. Had to ask for our ticket after waiting for awhile. To me the food just was not worth the price.More

We came to Long Island City for a wedding, stayed at the Ravel Hotel. They told us about the Court Square Diner when we asked for a local diner. Glad they did! The place is clean, friendly, and the dishes were excellent. Very tasty, hot...and delicious. The service absolutely the best. Classic Diner Service, very well done. Prompt, and we'd go back here in a heartbeat. I cannot say enough good about this place.More

Stopped here for brunch and was amazed by all the options on the menu. In addition to the standard American diner fare, there was Greek food, Italian food, and numerous vegan options (had vegan chick'n parmesan). The crowd was as diverse as the menu. Good...service and reasonably priced too.More

Throwback to the old days. Nice portions. All our breakfast items were as they makethem, not as we asked. “Crispy” bacon was barely cooked. Eggs over medium? Forgetaboutit! Anyway, the place is great when you are ready for a classic diner.

Kind of a traditional NYC diner in LIC, they serve some of everything and an unusually large number of strawberry daquiris (I didn't have one, just saw a lot of them going by). Food is good quality, large portions, served quickly, everything you'd want.

This diner offers pretty much everything you would want from the classic diner breakfast experience... PLUS the unique view of a bustling Queens intersection and the subway rattling overhead. A good thing! My omelette, home fries, and coffee were fresh/top notch. I do advise getting...there early on a Sunday as there is a wait b/c this place is pretty popular.More

It is right next to the subway station, best to take the 7, though there is limited street parking
