• 5/25/25This is the first Door Dash order where the vendor got everything right! The veggie omelette was made correctly and not over or undercooked. The accompanying toast was just right, not burnt to a crisp like other places. The home fries are perfectly cooked, again not burnt to an inedible crisp or undercooked. The portions are generous and make a satisfying meal. I feel I received full value for my purchase. I will definitely try other menu items from Gateway Diner.

• 4/4/26I hvery always loved Gateway Haddock, I got the broiled in lemon butter and it is moist and delicious.
Their Home Fried Potatoes are great with breakfast or as a side with burger or fish.
Gateway Burger Deluxe was my husband's choice. He had to the "hunch" made famous by Guy Fieri with all of the toppings on it. I had a bite and I maybe a new favorite because of the delicious grilled steak flavor.

• 12/7/25dont allow for special instructions if you don't ever follow them. I asked for no tomatoes because I am allergic and you include them. you also charge for cheese that should already be included like the descriptions say, then you don't add extra when I asked and paid for extra. potatos are just done ,no flavor. corned hash has no flavor also.

• 2/16/26Disappointed in the entree. The pork chops were very thin, and mostly overcooked. The applesauce that was listed as accompanying the entree was completely missing.
The potato salad was the best part of the meal, and the coleslaw was also tasty.
I will not order the chops again.
