I've been going to 5 & Diners for about 15 years and especially this location. I have seen the quality go down as the prices go up. On this particular visit, I was appalled to see that a burger is now just shy of ten dollars. So I ordered a bacon cheeseburger, pretty basic, no special instructions. I ordered it medium. When I got it, it was half cooked. One half of the patty was cooked and the other half was pink on the inside. I am not sure how that happens. I was with my brother and we both got burgers. I stopped eating mine after I saw that the patty was cooked in that odd fashion. My brother's was prepared fine, but he also stopped eating his because it was just didn't taste good. Service was slow. Even though they were fully staffed and they weren't busy, it was still painfully slow.
There was puke in the sink in the women's bathroom. I spied this on the way to the men's bathroom as the women's bathroom door was open and an employee was attempting to clean it up. Unfortunately, I saw this before I got my food so that set my appetite into a spiral downwards. As for the men's bathroom, the urinal was broken and leaking water. Their solution for this problem was to put a Tupperware container under the leak. It was perched precariously on top of the urinal and was about half full of toilet water. Looking about ready to fall right on the customer who was using the urinal at that time.
This is the second time I have posted this review up. This is a legitimate account of my experience at this place and a warning that the food is very mediocre and the prices are getting crazy. For some reason it was taken down even though I plainly told my experience.
