Galaxie Diner has a rating of 4.7 out of 5 based on over 1991 reviews on Google

Galaxy Diner is picture perfect in its role as a traditional Mom and Pop restaurant. In business for almost 30 years in the same location. It is a model of consistency. While it is housed in a small space, that intimate setting, that irreplaceable "been around a long time" patina and style are part of its charm. The helpings are generous, with many items listed on the menu "Served with endless toasts and bottomless hash browns", omelettes get "Any number of fillings, same price". The food is fresh, served quickly and the staff, many of which are long term employees, are courteous, despite working in tight quarters and typically busy services. We had a and an , both of which were excellent, with an extra order of toasts, as included in the menu. We did not wait for a table for two but on weekends, Galaxy Diner can get a waiting line. Hard to beat simple, fresh, abundant consistent food, served with a smile. Keep doing what you do, Galaxy Diner!

Fresh off the tarmac, and with quite the appetite, my friends and I sauntered ourselves into this groovy little joint. Coffee, orange juice, crisp water, WHAT MORE COULD YOU ASK FOR. The food was fast, filling and friggin good. Also Austen, our server had exquisite energy. Super attentive and actually offered up those bottomless hash browns the menu listed, love a restaurant that follows through on such a bold claim. Will definitely be back next time i’m in the city. Highly recommended!

Galaxie Diner was very good. The food was tasty and hot. The seating is limited, so it may take a while to be seated. The bottomless toast and potatoes is a great deal, but it’s not easy to get more. I would definitely recommend, and we will be back.

Fabulous little diner - I went with my family and we had a great time. The service from the moment we walked in the door was great, all the staff we interacted with was so friendly and welcoming. I appreciate small restaurants where everyone is available to help, it really makes it feels homey. I had the smoked meat Bennie and was obsessed. The hollindaise was perfect, and I love when bennies are served on croissants. I found myself getting full so fast, I can only assume it's because its real food. This place was packed busy, and for good reason.

A gem! Staff were welcoming and friendly! What it’s missing in space it makes up in atmosphere ! Such a fun retro look . The food was great, diner food without the excessive grease. It was fresh , portioned perfectly, priced fair and tasted amazing! Overall a great experience, worth the trip from Red Deer. We will be back!

The Calgary sandwich was the best sandwich I’ve ever had! We sat at the bar, and watched the master chef run the grill. What a talent this dude was My date had the Montreal smoked meat hash. Also an excellent meal. Pricing runs average to other quality establishments we’ve visited. The portions were perfect, no need to activate the bottomless hash or toast feature We can’t wait to go back and try more
