Lester's Diner - Fort Lauderdale

I grew up in the area and used to eat here a lot. Came back to visit and had to get a bowl of coffee. Ordered a Bamburger and added some mushrooms. They are serious about their mushrooms, one feel off and it was big and thick. It would make a sandwich at any other restaurant. This is one of the places I miss not living here any more.

We had a great experience here on a Sunday afternoon. Upon arrival, we gave our name to the hostess, and maybe a minute later, we were called to go to our table! Virtually no wait time.

Thought I was going to wait long, but it was reasonable. The waitress was very attentive and took care of our needs. Ambiance of the place is nice. Food came out hot with generous portions. No frills, simple menu, tasty diner food. Can?t ask for anything else. Parking lot outside off of the main strip.

I went there for birthday lunch with my friend Ruth and we were amazed how packed the place was and how long the menu. It is a mix of different cuisines. I tried the Greek trio and my friend had a sandwich. We were both very happy with the food and service. Our waitress was very very friendly and full of good suggestions. She told my friend to order the banana creme pie as it had real bananas unlike the other options.

Early morning flight? This is the stop that is open 24 hours to grab some decent breakfast. I really liked the pancakes as they had a nice sweetness to it. The country fried steak was pretty good the biscuits to me were really dry and the scrambled eggs for some reason I did not really like the texture.
