What ronaldb de doesn't like about BLD Diner:
Despite having made confirmed reservations through OpenTable in the early morning we arrived on time at lunch to be told they had unilaterally cancelled all reservations b/c they were too busy . They had made no attempt to notify our party or make other arrangements. Such management carelessness and lack of concern for customers is disgusting. They are on my boycott list. View all feedback. What alexd test likes about BLD Diner:
We really all enjoyed the experience and food. The staff was fantastic- from the hostess to bartender to manager to kitchen staff to our server. We had really positive interactions with everyone. We loved every item we ordered (including craft cocktails). The fried green tomatoes over pimento grits dish was a favorite for all of us. Everyone left full and happy. View all feedback.

The service and food were excellent. Loved the french toast made with challah bread. And it was a good ambiance. Super quiet the weekday morning we dined there....

BLD Diner has received mixed reviews from customers. Some were disappointed by management's disregard for reservations, while others praised the excellent service and food quality. The French toast made with challah bread was a standout dish. Although some found the prices high, the ambiance was pleasant. The limited menu and noise from the milkshake blender were cited as drawbacks. Despite these issues, the restaurant received compliments for handling out-of-stock items with grace. Overall, BLD Diner offers a unique dining experience with a variety of tasty options worth exploring.
