Best WLM Reviews
Tucked away in a calm neighborhood that's steps away from Roosevelt Row, is a gem of a diner. Went for Sunday brunch and it was not busy at all and was in fact very peaceful. The service was very fast and extremely friendly. Mimosa's are a must and priced right. The food came out fast and was delicious. Definitely would come back every Sunday if I could.
Fantastic place to eat in the Phoenix area.
I had the Welcome burger and it was delicious. The fries were warm. And the burger was more well done than medium. A lot of restaurants do this for health reasons.
My wife and her father had the welcome breakfast with their eggs over medium and it was good. One of the orders of the eggs were overcooked and well done.
My sister Angelica had the chicken
fried sandwich and it was great.
We also enjoyed the Mac n cheese and it was the bomb.
Welcome Diner is a classic downtown. Their food is exactly what you'd expect from a diner- hearty and filling and yummy. I love all their vegetarian/ vegan options, and being from the south- I appreciate their fried green tomatoes (although some ranch or pimento cheese would be welcomed.) They had a blueberry sour beer on tap as their special, which was a nice surprise. The cocktails are pretty basic, but it's cool they make their own fruit punch and ginger beer. The service was friendly and relatively quick, and I like the diner vibe for a casual stop otw home. They're open late night, so it's a good choice for after a game or bar. 1

Was in the area and decided to go with something a little out of the way. In the middle of, what feels to me to be a very dense residential area, was this little diner. With a patio seating area that must be awesome during cooler days, we sat inside and got waited on by an extremely cute waitress.
No soda that I saw on the menu, so got the homemade fruit punch. It was delicious with a little hint of more than just fruit, it was lovely.
For food, got the Welcome Burger, medium, sans toppings,just ketchup, mustard and something called garlic aoili, with fries.
The fries were so very small and light, but just the right amount of greasy and so very delicious. Wish they were not so small, but that's my preference.
The burger was spectacular, with everything mixing perfectly and staying together with the tooth pick. It was a bit messy, but not overly so. I did eat it rather quickly because it was that good, and also didn't want to deal with picking it back up.
Overall, the food was heavenly and not too filling, just the exact right amount. I would love to go back.
Only problem was the pricing. For 2 meals, with the 2 fruit punches, was about $46. I know our economy sucks, but that was still hard to swallow.
I'll definitely be going back some time soon, if nothing else to get something I know I love, with a very nice patio waiting for me.
This is a wonderful, friendly Diner.
The atmosphere is hip, the restaurant and restroom are clean, and the menu is full of diner options.
The Paloma was served in the Jarritos bottle, with a salted rim, which I thought was a wonderful touch.
The patio is dog friendly and the staff are friendly and fast.
The burgers and fries are greasy, in the the best way, and made to order.
Came here back in 2018 with my girlfriend and wondered how it would be in 2024. Came back with my lady and Dad for lunch and had quite a memorable lunch.
Their mac and cheese was cheesy, seasoned, and broiled on top so it had a little crunch. The poutine fries were on point!! My dad said the gravy reminded him of the restaurant in his home town.
The chicken biscuit sandwich was juicy, tender, and gone after about 5 minutes of arriving. My dad got the chicken fried steak and it was one if the better versions I've had.
The biscuit has to be the best I've had. They butter and toast it like bread and its a game changer. Plus they served us some strawberry jam and it was perfect on the biscuit.
All in all, add this spot to your hit list. Its perfect for breakfast, lunch, and late night drinks/bites. It's a couple streets east of downtown which makes it a hidden gem.
Love this little old diner. The smell was so amazing & the food was even better than expected. Even the french fries were fresh.
Too pricey for me. The food quality didn't match the price. Was my first time there. Probably not going back. No refill on my lemonade that was overpriced as well. I'm disappointed. Had the big Jim which was a chicken sandwich on a rewarmed biscuit with some gravy. I expected better. Service was ok only.
