West Taghkanic Diner

Stopped here on our way home. It’s just off the Taconic. Best “diner” we’ve ever been to. We shared the Greek salad (comes in 2 sizes), clam chowder (2 sizes also), the Reuben sandwich and a scoop of Jane’s vanilla ice cream with hot fudge, burnt honey caramel and sprinkles. We loved every bite of all we had! We ordered the salad as our side with the sandwich. The greens and tangy lemony dressing were tasty. Although the clam chowder did not have a ton of clams, we prefer quality to quantity and the soup was flavorful and delicious. As for the Reuben, we ordered it on sourdough and got the sauce on the side. It was incredible! Since it was close to closing time on Sunday and they are closed early in the week, we missed out on the homemade baked goods. We will be back! Our entire feast before tip was just under $40. Very affordable for the quality of ingredients and the skill of the kitchen.

My brother and I went to lunch there today and it was delicious! The portions were perfect size and extremely tasty! The owner even came out and talked to us at the end of our lunch.

New owners, beautifully restored diner, fantastic new menu, delightful staff, bacon smoked right on the premises.

Had my first breakfast here today after a neighbor's glowing recommendation [HTD Hash -- fantastic] & I'll be back soon. Treat yourself & stop in!

Ok. A couple days late posting this. I will state that I did not eat there, but had stopped to order a coffee and use the restroom. We arrived right after their closing time. I had never driven the route we were on only to find no rest stops and very few businesses along this road.
Although closed the people working there were very pleasant and accommodating. For this alone I felt I should do my part to help add a positive review for them.
Thank you so very much! My hope is that your business thrives and maybe someone else may visit your diner because of my review.

I stumbled upon the diners opening day, last Sunday. Just looking for some eggs. Got the best omelet I have had in a long time! Goat cheese, perfectly cooked mushrooms and so fresh they were crispy herbs! I subbed french fries for home fries, also perfectly crispy! AND house smoked brisket bacon, yummy! All of this topped off with a perfect diner cup of coffee. Julia, behind the counter bartending too, was a joy to chat with. Keep up the good work, do not worry about the stumbles, you have a jewel.
