unpretentious diner from the outside, and incredible food on the inside. A group of about 30 of us went for a post funeral service and the food was GREAT. Crunchy veggies, outside skirt steal, chicken, and raviolis…. Would highly recommend others rent out their banquet hall for small/medium sized events. best buffet style food ive had ton a long time. THEY DO NOT use cheap ingredients. 90% of all the skirt steak you’ll have at restaurants is inside and this place uses outside skirt.

First time here, and it was great! Fast and friendly service with good portions. Had the chopped steak and scrambled eggs, and they were both delicious. Nice seating by the windows. Overall, it was a fantastic breakfast at a reasonable price!

This is a family style restaurant with a WIDE variety on the menu -- I had a hard time narrowing down my choices but finally settled on the gyro. I had a lovely bread basket to munch on while I waited, but I didn't have to wait long -- my meal arrived quickly. The gyro was HUGE and very tasty. I also got fries, cole slaw, and opted for a side salad instead of soup. The salad was just a bit disappointing -- the lettuce wasn't the best and hadn't been drained well -- but the garlic dressing was excellent. My server was new and eager to please, very attentive. They are open until 10, which was lucky for me as I got there after 8. There were a number of large groups there, and it seems to be a very popular spot -- lots of regulars who were greeted by the staff. Prices were typical for the area. Overall, GREAT place -- was recommended by staff at hotel about 10 minutes away, over other closer places, so I thought it must be good -- and it was! Highly recommend.

Myself and 11 friends were at Continental to break the fast for Yom Kippur. The buffet was plentiful & was first quality, and that brisket was really delicious! Whenever an item seemed low more was brought out immediately. The attention to our two tables was superb. We have been to Continental many times for many meals great food great people!

This place is a bit hidden but the food was excellent and the service was fast and friendly. I was there at lunchtime and had the veggie soup and the Grecian chicken. The soup was outstanding; a generous serving. The chicken was tasty and moist…fries were good too. Will be back for sure!

Great diner. So many selections; some of us got breakfast, some got salads, one got dinner, and one got a sandwich. So much food we asked for boxes to take leftovers. The food was awesome. Highly recommended. This is not a usual diner with scaled back furnishings. This place is really nice.

We just held my mother’s 90th birthday party at the Continental. We had about 35 people there.and I was planning it from out of town, so I needed a banquet center I could rely on. Peter and his team were fantastic from start to finish. I can’t begin to describe how helpful they were. They assisted in making the menu perfect, in setting the room and the AV and just making us and our guests feel comfortable. The food was delicious, well presented, and plentiful, the service was professional, prompt, friendly and superb. We had a fantastic time and a lovely event. Many of our guests emphasized how much they enjoyed the dinner and it’s really thanks to the folks at the Continental. It’s a great place, great team and great food. I heartily recommend them for any event you may want to host.

The parking lot is usually packed due to being next door to Garden Fresh grocery store, so I had to park far away. The restaurant is older, but the service is friendly and quick. We were seated immediately after asking table or booth. It was noon, but we still ordered breakfast. The skillets here are a larger portion than the other places I've reviewed. The skillet was delicious but could've used more meat than potatoes and veggies...there is no meat lover skillet here. The coffee was bold and good quality.
