This is the second time I've been to this restaurant and again I enjoyed my food and visit. Four of us ate here and were all happy with our food and desserts!! The meal began with their bread which is scrumptious. I ordered the half chicken with dumplings and mashed potatoes. It was all yummy! I would have preferred a breast of chicken but bone-in did the trick too. Everything was good! The four of us tried three desserts - carrot cake, bread pudding, and chocolate cake. Of those, the bread pudding was my favorite. Our service was fast and efficient and the place was neat and clean. I'd eat here again if in the area.

After more than 10 years, I finally gave it another try today--and it did not disappoint. The grits were delicious, though I wished the portion was a bit larger. The eggs and (real)crab were also great. The service was pleasant when I called, and since I had been there before, the atmosphere felt warm and welcoming.

I've been coming here for years. They have really yummy food and I like that they add specials to the menu. Their desserts are fresh and outstanding my favorite is the hoho cake. They have a rewards program but its like you have to have 100,000 points just to accumulate a reward.this is a must try restaurant

I have always enjoyed TV's Deli & Diner. The serve up amazing dishes & cocktails with a smile. The place is cozy with an outside patio to enjoy a nice summer day. They take pride in the Mac n cheese & lobster bisque. Be sure to order both! Also, don't forget the huge carrot cake. Omg the best ever! This is one of my go-to spots in Trenton. Be sure to check them out!

No photos of food but everything we had was great old fashioned delicious diner food! The Rueben sandwich was a hit with its buttery toast and wet corned beef. The Michigan cherry salad had so many walnuts and cherries topped with blue cheese and chicken! But the best part of our dining experience was Jessica! Our server who was by far the most amazing server I have ever had. We walked in as a group of families, probably about 30 of us total. We got seated right away, and she went to work first on drinks then food. Not one single thing came out wrong! Everyone's family food came out together, and there wasn't much time at all in between each round of food coming out. She handled the kids with respect and patience and was able to get everyone accommodated! We wouldn't hesitate to go back if ever in the area!

Such a cute little diner! It's clean and the staff are unbelievably friendly. We stopped in on our way to the OpenBook Theatre. We were seated straight away, and a lovely young man came to the table almost immediately to take us drink order. I wish I remembered his name - he was a delightful waiter and was very attentive to all of his customers. For food we had meatloaf, with a side of Mac n Cheese and coleslaw and the Chicken and Dumplings. The meatloaf is just a good old fashioned meatloaf - nothing fancy, nice flavor and seasoning and it was cooked perfectly. The chicken a d "dumplings" was a generous portion of chicken (leg, thigh and wing) with a huge portion is spätzle, and gravy. Was hoping to take home a piece of the amazing ho-ho cake, but it was sold out! They have other delicious desserts, like carrot cake, and white chocolate banana bread pudding. (Sorry! I forgot to take photos!)

I have wanted to try it here for a while now. Decided to pull the trigger because I felt like lobster bisque and carrot cake. Showed the menu to the hubs, and he was willing to drive through the sticks to get here.It's kind of in an odd area. From the outside, it doesn't look like much. The inside is very kitschy. Not terribly my style. I'm not all about atmosphere, though, so I don't really care. I get its their schtick.The people here are terrific. Friendly, efficient, and informative. The lady running the front of house is on the ball. Our server did a fantastic job too. We were seated right away and had drinks and freebie rolls in a flash. We arrived at 4ish on a Saturday. Be advised that when we left, there was a wait for tables.The rolls are super dense with a garlic taste. They are ok for freebie rolls, I guess. My husband wanted cheese curds, and they came with honey mustard, but they added his fave ranch for us with no problem. They were fantastic in either sauce. Crispy, not a bit greasy. Nicely sized, plenty to share.I ordered a house salad as one of my sides. You can get it tv style with blue cheese, bacon, and breadcrumbs. I highly recommend that you do just that. Super fresh mixed greens, cucumbers, and grape tomatoes are good on their own, but tv style takes it to gourmet level. It went so nicely with the punchy garlic balsamic dressing. I could eat this salad every day. I'm really very impressed. We both got soups as sides. James went with the soup of the day, chicken pot pie. It had a crumbled pastry topping and tasted just like it's namesake dish. Fantastic! I, of course, opted for lobster bisque. It's why we came in. Super duper buttery and creamy with a true lobster seafoody essence. It was so satisfying. We both decided on the sirloin oscar style for our main dish. I got mine medium rare, and he got his medium. Both were cooked to order. The crab is indeed real, and the hollandaise is terrificly rich and tasty. The steaks were equally so very tender to boot. An excellent dish.My husband's side of mac and cheese was fine. It's just kind of blah compared with everything else. It's the only thing we ate I would not order again. It was not bad at all. it's just not even close to the best thing on the menu imo.We, of course, got to go for my parents. My dad adored his black and blue ribeye with mashed potatoes but was meh on his small container of coleslaw. My mom declared her angel hair aglio olio with shrimp the best she had ever eaten and was in love with her paprikashed spaetzle side. Everything was packed up super securely, which they especially appreciated.My only other glitch here was we got cake to go. I got carrot cake, and my husband got the 4 layer double chocolate. My piece was half the thickness of his. It was just disappointing because it was not cheap, and I had been super excited about it. My husband felt bad because he had specifically gotten dessert because I was so jazzed, and now he felt like I got cheated. So if you get dessert, maybe don't get it to go. It was tasty, but I feel kinda salty about it. Bad last impression for sure.

Really love to stop by in the evening to have a hot tea and a delicious dessert with TV's Diner. You have to try their desserts. They even have individual apple pies baked just for you. Great way to end a date night. Enjoy!
