My first time in was a wonderful experience. I ordered the special of the day, which I had chosen the mushroom salad and a roast beef sandwich. The special also came with banana pudding and a drink. They actually staggered the meal as I went.
The first thing to come out to me was the mushroom salad. A wonderful, light salad with mushrooms and what seemed like a light cream and dill sauce, although I may be mistaken. Either way, it was a great, light starter to the meal.
Next up was the roast beef sandwich. It was exactly that, and came with a side of gravy. Although I would have personally preferred if the beef was more spiced, I was satisfied with it overall. Especially for the price.
Lastly came the banana pudding. This was my favorite part. A very hearty portion of banana pudding arrived at the table, and after the first bite, it didn't last long. Absolutely wonderful.
I did also order a slice of blueberry pie, and was just as happy with that as I was with the banana pudding. A wonderful portion of thick and rich blueberry pie.
The atmosphere fits the bill perfectly. This is a 50's style diner, and it hits the atmosphere right on the head. The red and black 50's theme was a wonderful twist on a great establishment, especially for being a sort of hole-in-the-wall diner.
The staff was super helpful, and made sure that my experience was a wonderful one. Not only will I be going back, but I have and will continue to tell my friends about Ken's Diner. My only issue was that I had hoped for the roast beef to be more spiced, but for the price, I can't complain. However, aside from that, I can't complain about anything. From the atmosphere, to the staff, to the food, Ken's Diner is worth checking out.
This place is pretty decent.. it's a huge pain to find and there is almost no parking but if you can get past those hurdles and can get a spot it's worth the effort. It's small and hits a pretty good diner vibe. The sandwich I had wasn't anything special but it was very good. Great value for the dollar as well.
A must go! Cute little diner tucked away on the north end of Edmonton with a 50’s style feel/decor.
Great service/atmosphere/food/prices.
It was so nice to see the place packed on a Sunday morning. Check it out!
We live in the Schonsee area, and we were delighted to find an eatery that’s a few minutes walk from our front door.? This was our first trip over this morning.
Came for breakfast... had great food, great service and an enjoyable experience. Price didn’t hurt the pocketbook, almost half of what we pay elsewhere. Tea/ coffee were hot and fresh, food was piping hot, server super friendly and smiley. We will be back again... thanks for opening???
What a great place and fantastic atmosphere. Food is spectacular and well priced. Staff is very friendly as well. Will go back to make sure they are consistent.
