Candlelight diner is a staple in Commack. The place is clean and well maintained. The food is good. The fresh pasta salad at the table is phenomenal. A crowd favorite. The host and manager is wonderful and polite. The wait staff is hit or miss with being friendly. I would recommend this diner for a snack, a meal or a late night delight.

Candlelight Diner hasn’t failed thus far… Breakfast dishes, especially their Challah Toast Blueberry Pancakes have been a go to for those early morning breakfast in the backyard vibes. Wonderful chill spot for family to get together or even a group of friends who want to catchup on each other’s lives over a great meal!

Ordered chopped steak medium rare, came out well done, sent back and then it came out raw. Which was nauseating to everyone at the table. Took home and will need to cook it, Manager came over to see how second one came out, told him it was raw and willtake it home to cook. When we showed it to him he agreed it was raw and offered to get us another one, but at this point I hadlost my appetite. I did take it home but feel the right thing for the manager to do would have been to take it off the bill.Other dishes also were not up to par chicken overcooked and tasted like it reheated. I have been here a few times before and didnot have a problem. I guess this was an off night. Will need some time to get over this before returning.
