Quaint. Good service. Diner food. Pretty pricey for a diner.

Very authentic 1950's diner complete with working jukeboxes. The food is great and the prices are great as well. Very affordable. Do yourself a favor and stop for a meal.

Daniel Picard

Came for the 2019 burger love burger and I was not disappointed one bit. Great taste and just enough juice and sauce to make a slight mess on the hands. This should be a staple on the regular menu.

Denton MacLean

I love this place and so does my grandmother. It is the only 50s diner around and the only one I have ever been to and I highly recommend this place of you have not tried it before.

Jim Fowler

Excellent food and great service!

Don Rayner

Great spot good basic diner food. Homemade pies and great staff

Patrick Goulah

My Starlite omelette was excellent! The atmosphere is very clean and the service was great. My wife and kids meals were good but not something to get excited about - which is why the 4 out of 5 rating.

Derek Price

Cool 50s milkshake bar vibe and the food was really nice too

Bob Brewster

Soft serve machine was broke. Which was the reason we stopped. They did have a couple flavours of hard ice cream which sufficed,

Mat Mueller

Cool place. Good food. Makes you feel like being in the 1950s. Friendly staff.

John

Excellent service and great food

Mary-Anne Sullivan

Very disappointing! My husband ordered the special (turkey dinner). He got what seemed like the tail ends of the turkey and was told that they ran out of mashed potatoes. They put fries on his plate and served that without speaking to him first. 2 mins later they brought out another plate to another customer with mashed potatoes. My clubhouse sandwich was burnt to a crisp. We were intending to get Ice cream after our meal but were so disappointed we decided to go somewhere else. We won't be going back!

Tim V

Sept 10. 7:30pm. Seated but no acknowledgment from staff after 15 min. Seems they would rather clear emptied tables then serve customers. Can't recommend and won't return.

Ty Linkletter

Ok food good for quick stops

Tyler Cochrane

Great old fashion food! Nothing fancy, but if your looking for a good old diner atmosphere this is the place! Also they have the best milkshakes on the island. If you don't want food, drop in for a shake!

Aubrey Blank

Baruch Pletner

A good 50s style diner in Summerside

Sarah Kember

the icecream and prices of icecream 5/5. That's about it. Everything else including their nachos, service, presentation of food, etc, very mediocre. Have gone back hoping to be impressed and see changes but am disappointed again.

Patrick Poirier

Super quick and friendly

Mike Schneider

Awesome breakfast and fast.

D Brown

Stopped at this diner as a last minute decision. We where fueling up and seen the restaurant next door with lots of locals using it. Always a good sign to me. The decor is very 50/60/70's, brought back a few memories. Enjoyed the ambiance. The staff a very attentive. The food is very good, prices are fair. Service was fast and efficient. This would be another place to add to your stop if you are visiting the area. Parking is a bit tight but should not be a problem unless you are driving a full size Hummer.

Luke Walker

Delicious breakfast, cool decor, great service.

Jennifer Cessford

We had an good old grilled cheese and fries. It hit the spot and at a great price too. Service was fantastic.

Alex Syragakis

Wonderful atmosphere and excellent home made breakfasts. Highly recommended.

Marcel Savoie

Atmosphere was great, service and food was amazing! Highly recommend it.

Tiffany Richards

Worst experience ever at any diner/restaurant. I am giving a 1 star because I can not give a negative one. We were a family of 6. 2 of us ordered the same thing. Hers was excellent, mine was horrible to the point I was unable to eat. Hot turkey sandwich with a cheesy gravy...yuck!! Had to ask 2 different waitresses for a glass of water, and there was several extra charges, $2.00, $2.50. It was $2.00 for a very small cup of tea and coffee, that is only a 1/4 of the size of a MacDonald coffee which is also $2.00 We had Two separate bills as requested. Our bill was for 4 people. Cost over $60 for 4 of us. We will never ever dine there again. Very poor service, very poor food, and way way over priced with extra sneaky costs. Very disappointed

Andy W.

The most amazing gravy.....have it!

Trudy Hyslop

Delicious, inexpensive food!

Thomas Herbreteau

The atmosphere is really cool, and the food is tasty... but we had to wait for over an hour to get it. It was busy, but it doesn't take that long to make a grill cheese and a pizza.

Jayson Hawkins

Love this diner! Missed it when it shut down for awhile, made sure that the first place I went when I came back to PEI was to the reopened Starlight. Trust me when I say the food is awesome! The milk shakes are a thing if beauty, still the best I have ever had!!

Daddy Gorrilla

Great food and staff, will defiantly be back again and again.

Brian Tredenick

New management but that is all. Typical island food. Good but bland.

Tara McGaughey

Classic 50's style diner! Good food and fast service.

Tracey B

Service was great, food was good too. The only reason they got 4/5 is because they were out of a few items for nacho toppings and we were informed after the fact and not given a chance to change our order. Reasonably priced too.

Cris Baets

After a long day out with the kids this was a welcome stop. The kids had a blast picking songs on the jukebox and trying to make the servers dance. The food was exactly what you look for in a diner, this isn't fine cuisine but it's great comfort food. The servers were friendly and easy going even though we were there near closing. Great milkshakes!!

chris Audi1

nice small restaurant when you can find casual food close to some hotel/motel + look nice retro look from the 60's +good service really fast +food was hot -opening and closing hours are small -taste of food a little bit fade around 20 spot of parking

Delicious fresh-made fare in an authentic classic dinner atmosphere. A worthwhile stop in Summerside.

Went at an off time on mother's day. The waitress while nice never offered to refill our waters. The food is good classic dinner food. Their sweet potatoe fries are awesome.

ken smith

Excellent diner experience. Staff is very friendly and prices are reasonable. Food always comes out quickly and is warm. The 50’s theme is very nice - like stepping back in time. They have a great breakfast along with a wide range of lunch and dinner options. Also, a great selection of shakes and ice cream treats.

Roy Hashey

Very friendly staff and great price for your food!

Brian Reid

Food was awesome and the atmosphere was really relaxing. Great service.

Austin Fisher

Big portions for affordable prices. The burgers are thick and delicious, I got the double but definitely didn't need it all! Milkshakes are also very good, a small is more than enough.

Judy Allain

Food was great but fish portion was way too small for $13

Ramón Velasco Alfonzo

This is one of my favorite restaurants in all PEI! The service is always good, and I love their mac 'n cheese. ????

Good food at reasonable prices. I stopped in here after a long day at the beach. Enjoyed the special of fish and chips. Staff was very pleasant and patient with my kids. They have a jukebox where you can have songs played for $0.25. My kids liked that.

Kim M

The food was so good I forgot to take pics. Feels like you're walking into a 50s movie. All the food coming out of the kitchen also looked delicious. A bit of a wait, but worth it.

Marie Gallant

Staff are friendly, food is excellent, serving sizes are perfect & the establishment is clean.

Suzanne St.Amand

Love the atmosphere and the food. I had the chicken quesadilla the other day and it was the best one that I ever had! Great prices too????

Carolyn MacLean Doucette (Carolyn MacLean Doucette

Delicious food, very pleasant and unique atmosphere, very friendly staff. Definitely recommend!

Brady Allen

Great retro feel, and really good smoothies!

david brooklyn

Great breakfast and a really nice atmosphere after remodeling

Amy MacPherson

Excellent 50s decor and a big menu. The cheeseburger and Greek salad I had were great.

Kristy Suik

This place had a very cool 50's diner look and feel. We went based on a recommendation from our motel, and found the place to be very busy. Although there was tables open, the staff barely had the time to clean between running from table to table. The menu is very simple, one sided piece of paper, and a little plain. The meals were a little Luke warm after arriving at the table, but still edible. If you enjoy the atmosphere more than the meal, this place was great. We would have preferred a but more attentiveness to the details, like hot meals and clean tables.

Norman Hamann

Great atmosphere. Good music. Clean. Great food. Attentive server. Family run. Had clam strips. Sister had fried scallops. So good. Turkey club and putin that my fiancé had was delicious.

Don Eng

Great old school diner with friendly staff!!!

Keith Cusson

Nice little diner with a cool 50's motif. Went for breakfast and was not disappointed.

cory gavin

The food was great and very reasonably priced. The milkshakes are a must try, I had the Oreo Cheesecake one, and it was delicious. Bacon cheeseburger and fries were tasty. They also have a jukebox and the atmosphere was really cool. Server was super friendly. We'll be back again soon!

F Martin

Old style diner, great staff and great breakfast

Fiona Bratvold

Randy Prosser

Nice and cozy retro restuarant. I had a simple little cheeseburger but the other food looked delicious as it was going by my table to other patrons. I am anxious to tetien6and try something else on the menu.

James Waugh

Ron Smith

Theme diner at entrance to Summerside. Nice stop for a snack or meal.

Jeff Moffet

Great food, fast service, hot meals, and wait staff came often to check on us. If you hungry have the Double Decker Burger platter. Second time there this summer and another great meal. Family friendly and a fun, clean environment. You can dazzle you kids with the magic of their jukebox!

Juanita Noiles

Food and service was great!

Iris Linkletter

It is just a cool diner goid foid friendly staff.

Denise Bruce Of Ingleside

Loved the food and atmosphere

Darren Fancy

A flashback to the past. Considering the island is a tourist trap( especially in the summer months) when prices for accommodation, gas and food are greatly inflated, the Starlight offers good food at reasonable prices. I ordered a "Fries with the Works"...an island favourite. My only complaint is that it didn't have cheese. I also ordered a cup of seafood chowder. It was very tasty, but disappointingly, everything was chopped fine. I saw small pieces of scallop, clams, onions and fish and very little potato( for a maritimer a good sign) although I now wonder if potato was used to thicken it? My sister ordered fish tacos and said they were good and the Mac and Cheese, a sizeable portion could be shared. It was creamy and not dried out. It was something anyone would be happy to serve to guests in their own home. Another draw back was the music selection on the jukeboxes at each table. Although not from the era of 50s and 60s, it was fun to flip through and reminisce.

Duane Gallant

Clean, organized and great choices for shakes and flurries. Good prices

Monica Hattie

Loved bringing my tween daughter here

Lisa-Mae MacDonald

Food was super yummy service was great. Fun little dinner.

Mary MacPherson

After many owners, finally a quality ,consistant product that is palate pleasing for all ages. Food preparation and presentation is excellant . Fish and meat menu moderately priced. I am not vege but believe they provide. Staff are welcoming. You may actually get to meet the chef. Accessible.

Perfect Cleaning

Nice little place. We stopped by for breakfast and it was good, but the real treat was the 50's diner feel. Very nice

darren “hammer head” hitchcock

Good food and good service.

schnitzel

Waited nearly 25 minutes to be served. The food was subpar and overpriced, very reminiscent of cafeteria food. Kraft Dinner mac and cheese costs $14.99 here, yikes.

Kay BPD

AMAZING you deffently feel like you have been taking back to the 50s

Billy Thorne

Alright food, but not for the price!

Steve Muise

A right of Spring. Getting the first cone of the season.

Denise Grant

Since moving nearby I've eaten here a few times. Absolutely love the seafood chowder and have been recommending it to everyone I know. Prices are reasonable, staff is friendly, food is fast. So glad to see the diner finally do good.

Scott Me

Quick service yummy food

Petra Hoss

This Diner used to be one of my favorite, but it is under new administration. I ordered a big hot dog with poutine. The entire meal was cold and dry. I returned it and ordered a Starlite Burger, but waitress came back with a Classic Burger. The bun was so dry, it fell apart picking it up. The burger was very thin, charred and dry. The condiments were extremely sparse. Very disappointed and will not recommend it anymore.

Dave Maher

Great place shame the jukebox is broken. It's been broken for like 15 years. Come on Starlite think how much money to could make with it working.

James Panton

Great old fashion chocolate milk shake

Bob Bryant

We love eating here. It is our favorite go to place in Summerside. They have captured the 50's and 60's ambiance, retro table booths, furnishings and music. All their food is amazing. Great food and affordable, friendly staff. Bob

Tammy louise Gillespie Curtis

Me and my friend Pam took her son out to eat there great place

John Jovanovich

Food was ok. Service was slow.

Kimberly Jarvis

This place showed no interest whatsoever in accommodating a family of six (four generations) at one table, when it could have been done easily by putting a small table at the end of a booth. We left and went somewhere where we felt welcome.

Christine Hughes

Starlite Diner was satisfactory. The service was great and the whole 50's dinner was amazing. However, I did not enjoy my grilled cheese sandwich. There was an unusual taste and so greasy. There was more then one type of cheese on the sandwich so it may have been a cheese I have never eaten before.

Sunshine Tiny Homes LTD

Great place, good food, lovely paraphernalia

Danielle MacNeill

Good service. I like the old style diner feel of the place. Prices are good as well

Desiree Del Rey

Family tradition to come here for breakfast atleast once when we visit the island. Always good food and great tunes coming from the little jukeboxes on every table.

Rose Marie Gallant

Great atmosphere. Love the "fries with the works". A little sad they have no biscuits for our Clam Chowder. Waitress was a doll.

Brianna Dawn

Wow such delicious food! And the waitresses are super super nice there ???? Starlite is definitely a favourite at my house ❤

Craig Savoury

Food, service and atmosphere is great and the value is good too.

Alex Al

Nice place. Friendly staff. Good food. What else ?

Wynced

Friendly staff, good food for a decent price. Tables feel a little close together. It's like you're sitting with another group. You have to talk quietly so they can't hear you, but it's a loud atmosphere so your friends can't hear you either. We went at 5pm and it seemed like almost all the clientele was much older. The decorations were very cool to look at. All very bright colors. There's even a jukebox at each table to queue a song for one quarter. Fresh made pie, excellent. Also attached to a dairy bar if that's your preference.

Rob MacCara

Great food with a 50's atmosphere!

Jennifer Fitch

Food is always hot and fresh. Such a clean restaurant.

John McDonald

Food was ok service great and decor fabulous.

95DemonEarth

Good meals and great burgers. Milkshakes are probably my favourite there!

Russell Tays

Good food and good price's

Gail Burton

We love diners..food was delicious...staff were awesome...we walked in at 10 to 8..not knowing it closed at 8, we apologized, but they served us, and also gave us free cheesecake, it was mothers day. They were in no hurry for us to leave, we stuck around and visited with the owners, about how clean and interesting their diner was, filled with memorabilia from the 50s. Finally left, and came back the next morning for breakfast, where we sat at the counter and chatted with the young server..such a great experience...loved it

Timothy Grant

Great ice cream!

ronald robichaud

The food was very good a great Valuable is excellent and the prices were very good. Great service.

Jacqueline Herder

Great but my husband ordered the clubhouse platter. Paying an extra 2.50 which incduded coleslaw and fries. When he asked where was the coleslaw that was missing on the platter, he was told that they only put it on the plate if requested as alot of people do not eat the coleslaw . He was wondering if he ordered liver and onions would he have to request for the onions:) The point being they should of at least asked him when he ordered if at least he wanted coleslaw, not just leave it off the platter.

Charlie Yorke

Disgusting!!!! Our burger was raw! As cute as the restaurant is don’t be fooled they will have good food or even safe food. We got the meal taken off our bill but for something so unexceptable the whole bill should have been covered. Hoping food poisoning won’t be in the future from this...

Levi Friesen

Good place to eat . good food

Jamie Whalen

Staff are friendly, atmosphere is great and the food is awsome

Tyler Rowan

Cool little diner. It's been around forever for a reason . Big plates and good food

Mike MacDonald

For a diner they served real food not frozen factory products. The staff were very friendly. Fries were excellent. Real chicken in the hot chicken.

Mary Pearson

Excellent food in a quaint 50s diner. Staff and host Randy very hospitable, friendly and efficient. Make sure to pay the Starlite a visit you won’t be disappointed.

stuart cornfield

This morning my wife and l decided to walk to your restaurant for breakfast since we seen your sign that said OPEN MONDAYS 7AM TO 2PM.So greatly disappointed when we arrived at your door and found it locked after a 45min walk If u aren't open on Mondays like your sign says l suggest you change it.

Good food. Had breakfast. One issue. Fiancé had no cutlery. We asked for some. Waitress said sorry and went to get a set. Grabbed coffee pot instead and went around the tables filling coffee's. I was half way threw meal when my fiancé decided to get up and go ask waitress again for cutlery. Not fast food, so if you in a hurry, not your place. About an hour for breakfast.

Tupp

We have dined here before but I have to say it is much improved. We had an excellent meal. The pricing was very good and the serving sizes were very generous. The staff were excellent as well. The Juke box music is a bonus but can be a little loud at times. We will return.

Emily Darte

Was pleasantly surprised. Place used to be no good when i was a kid. Went back for the first time in years and it was delicious

melissa mccardle

Their homemade coconut cream pie is the best

Elaine

This is a quaint dinner/dairy bar. The atmosphere is '50s retro. The food is delicious and the portions are perfect. I enjoyed the tasty homemade chili and my husband had the scallops and a milkshake that was great. Service is friendly and timely. Parking is free. We ate here two years ago and were looking forward to our return visit. We will be back.

Aaron McMullin

Noticed this little diner driving into Summerside. Really glad we stopped. Service and the food were amazing and the restuarant was incredibly spotless. Will be coming back for sure. Highly recommend

Christien MacLean

Horrible for seafood and waitress was very short with us

Peter Bown

Quick service and the ambiance was great. Was extremely warm in the restaurant but it was also during a heat wave. Burgers are good. Servings are genrous. Would recommend if you're in Cavendish and want to get away from the crowds.

Scott Ellands

Great place to eat. Clean and quiet atmosphere.

Kevin Brown

Terrible experience. Asked for a high chair/booster for our 2 year old son and was seated and never provided one (apparently they dont have any but neglected to tell me just rather ignored my requests). Waitress had a personality of a wet towel. She brought our 3 drinks out at 3 different times so nobody had a drink at the same time. Offered no refills. Ordered appetizers which were proud out at the same time as our sons meal which made no sense. Our meals were brought out two minutes later so had to decide to either let the appetizers get cold or our main meal. Somehow green onions made their way into my grilled cheese. Nobody in the kitchen was wearing hair nets or gloves. Overall a very terrible experience and would give less than a 1 star if I could

Cynthia Dool

Went there this evening for supper. My husband ordered the swiss mushroom burger. Had to ask for condiments to put on it otherwise. He was surprised that nothing else came on it like tomato or a pickle or lettuce. The fries were done nicely golden and hot. The burger tasted homemade and was thick and juicy. I ordered the homemade chili which was absolutely delicious. Not too spicey. Nice and chunky with a bit of sweetness to it. The side garden salad was a generous size with lots of veggies in it. All in all, a delicious meal and I would highly recommend. One of the cleanest diners I have ever visited! We would definitely visit again if ever back in the area!

Daniel Lamb

Classic diner with well executed burgers. No complaints.

Bev Dickie

Very good food and reasonably priced. Will definitely return.

Adam Pridham

Great food, friendly service!

Terry Corcoran

Prices not bad but peas and carrots on baked haddock plate were cold. Very small piece of fish. Mashed potatoes were good though. Home made tarter sauce. Not to my liking. Mine is better. Chicken parmesan plate. Search for the chicken. Fries were good. Too much marinara. Sauce for the portion.

Orville Dawson

The food was good but the temperature was kind of cool to eat

Holly Perry

Alway great food and service.

Terryann Moeash

The food is awesome and lots of it

Parker Weaver

I will be back. Excellent smoked meat sandwich.

Classic dinner with good comfort foods.

Tara Harmonie

Good breakfast. Dinner not so much. Start using fresh produce. Keep your food at the right temperature for serving.

Martina Campbell

Great food great prices fun and inviting atmpsphere

Mike Ouellet

Soggy fries, burnt nacho chips, burger looked like a frozen patty you would be served in an elementary school cafeteria, didn't get drinks until meal was served...and had to remind server what they even were.

Deanna Trotta

Just had a wonderful dinner there. Our server was great. Atmosphere of retro 50's was fun. Will definitely be back. One small suggestion. Floors should be washed, especially the ladies room.

Jolene Wheeler

Nachos were awesome, and so were there burgers

Jim Johnston

Rose Ramsay

Went there for supper was very happy with the meal everything was delicious and they allowed to split a meal with my 84 mother. Most places wont allowed this .i know i should talk more about the food it was delicious in every way but i will say what my mother told me she was a waitress for 42 years a" restaurant is as only good as its staff and cook"and last night they rated a ten . the cook came out and talked to mom about her ex periences as a waitress.the waitress was so friendly and cared about our needs a perfect ten!!! If you want to go some place where they treat you like family i recommend the Starlite DIner Bravo!!!!!!! ???? Ramsay Milton Station P.E

Service was great! But boy was the food bland! Was in the mood for something really tasty, so when we walked in and saw the special was a chicken and ham burger with chipotle sauce we were pretty excited! But it was bland, even with a second helping of the sauce which was ok, but the ham wasnt salty or "hammy" - if you were blindfolded you wouldn't know it was there, and the chickens breading was very bland as well. The waitress gets 5 stars, food gets 1 so I will average it out for the review.

Robert Gariepy

Amazing food, cooked perfect, incredibly nice staff, would highly recommend!!

Grace Campbell

Al Hannaford

Great food/nice atmosphere in Summerside P.E.I.

E Conrad

Food was ok. Ordered a burger, but wasn't asked what I wanted on it.....fries were good this time. My ice cream was pretty good, although misshapen. And the kitchen was really noisy, like not normal kitchen noise. 1 out of 3 quarters worked in the juke box....

MIKE OWEN

Went for the burger love. Although not my favorite burger it was decent service and average food. The ambiance was great for nostalgic people.

Maggie H

Great place with a fun atmosphere. Went here for breakfast, enjoyed classic bacon & eggs with fresh potato home fries (more of a rarity in PEI restaurants than you might think...) for a very good price. Server Trish was very efficient and attentive, ready with coffee refills without our having to ask. The place is as clean as can be, and the operational jukeboxes on each table are a nostalgic touch.

David Leaman

They serve a great breakfast at a reasonable price.

Kandas Macmillan

This place has a really cool atmosphere and vibe, with the look and feel of a classic '50s diner. The service was friendly, quick and the food was great. I'll definitely be back for more and I'd reccomend the fish taco platter!

ds veinot

Food really good, service was a bit slow.

Chris Faulkner

Great little diner feel. Little juke boxes gave it an added touch even though they disnt work. Service was great and speedy and our breakfast was tasty!

Peter Bennett

Clean and bright. Food was fast and great quality!

Sandra McCann

Fun diner experience. Lots of nostalgia from the 1950's! Once Covid restrictions are lifted you'll probably even be able to use the in-booth jukeboxes. Food was good nothing special, but good. Very clean restaurant.

Jo Phillips

Old fashioned diner. Very friendly staff great food

Olivia Ward

Love the look of the place and the food is good and reasonably priced however the service is sometimes very poor. Side note: if you have any nut allergies do not get the dipped chocolate cone, they will tell you they do have a nut-free kind but they often bring the same tools they use for that in contact with the kind with nuts in it! If I hadn’t have asked to double check it could have been a trip to the hospital because they weren’t going to warn me!

Doug Wright

Excellent food and awsome staff. A great place to grab a quick bite or sit down with the family for a meal. It's like being at home when it comes to the meals. Nice big portions and the 50-60s vibe just puts you at ease. I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

This is my absolute favourite place to eat in all of PEI. Such a cute little diner with a cool theme, great service, and great food too

Stephen Murphy

The service was quick and friendly. The ice cream portion was larger than expected. Great little spot.

Wendy D.

Food was good, old diner atmosphere was great, value was good. Unfortunately it seemed we overwhelmed them in the off season and they didn't seem to really want us there. A bit of mix ups with orders as well. They reccomend some of our group to try another ice cream shop down the road ????. I would try it again, in season for a 2nd chance.

Wayne James

Great food and nice atmosphere. Very retro.
