Celebrating the last day of school! Came in at 5pm and was seated right away. Always fun environment. Harvey was great! He gave great recommendations. The Nutella & Banana shake was perfect, not too sweet. The Brenda got two thumbs up from our 12 year old, his favorite was the bacon it was crunchy and chewy. The Kookie was great, the caramelized onions added a nice sweetness. The Galaxy always delicious, veggies cooked perfect still crunchy, not soggy at all. Side of pesto is a must. Had a great dinner and experience.

Hands down one of my favorite kids dinner spots in San Diego! They don't take reservations and can have a long wait but there is plenty to do nearby- such as the large food cafeteria with some little shops to walk through or grab a drink and a small bite OR the arcade that's right inside!? They cater to all ages really. They play only music from the 50's and do take requests from the live DJ, then roughly every hour in the evenings primarily the staff will bust out in some dance moves! For kids they have a balloon artist who comes around each table to make something they request- if they forget- just ask a waiter and they'll come by! For birthday kids they also provide free delicious milkshakes+ and shoutout from the dj and staff who sing to you! It's such a vibe in this place. The food itself it good- maybe a 4 star? But the vibe is def worth the visit

Gladys was our server and she was absolutely AMAZING! The ambiance is 100% kid-friendly. They even have an arcade on the side that's attached to the restaurant. So much nostalgia. The food was great! The prices are great! The music is great! Props to the DJ and the chefs! The servers even did a little performance in the middle of our lunch, it was awesome! Highly recommend this establishment for families! Thank you Corvette Diner for the core memories we created with our kids!

What a fun place!! Every time I e we come here you leave a whole lot happier! We don't even take kids with us. Today we sat by the bar and was served by Stella who was amazing! She made a cold brew cappuccino martini that was amazing! We are well versed in these and this is in our top 2. Stella used a special brew which is only at the CD. So good! Stella's personable service just made our day. Had the Spicy Boneless Chicken Strips which were very tasty. Davis and Leslie are just great owners who keep the vibe so much fun!! Thanks so much !

Good food, fun environment for kids, little to no wait time for table and food Great service from waitstaff

My husband and I came here with a Cohn restaurant and for nostalgia. We ordered burgers and a banana split to share and it was a wonderful night out for dinner. The service was great and the energy was loud inside so don't expect a quiet dinner. It's definitely a great place for families!

First time here ! The service was fantastic!! The vibe , the music , the food ! Super kid friendly my server wow outstanding , she made my kids laugh and was constantly checking if everything was ok . No wait time came in on a Wensday at 4pm , the price was ok 2 adults 3 kids about $90 . Love the Shakes ! Definitely coming back .

My partner, a San Diego Native, has been raving about this place since long before I had had the chance to visit, so my expectations were quite high. And Corvette diner absolutely met and exceeded those expectations, especially with how thoroughly committed they are to the theme. From the paper diner hat, to the outfits and makeup and songs, the themed rooms to the live radio broadcast booth, it was a truly infectious kind of excitement. The food was wonderful - you can't really go wrong with diner food in my opinion, especially with the fun variety of flavors and combinations many of their menu items had. We got an Elvis milkshake (banana, peanut butter, and marshmallow!) as well as the Rory burger, which was super unique, with a peanut butter sauce along its bacon burger. My favorite was the Buffalo Bleus - a fried chicken sandwich with blue cheese, and buffalo sauce, that was as flavorful as it was messy, and I loved every bite of it. Our waitress was super friendly, and super into the 60's spirit, which made the whole experience that much more fun. She let us know about the arcade in the back as well, which was a whole other room or lights, games, and fun. Corvette diner is such a gem of a restaurant, I truly can say I've never been anywhere else like it. I cannot wait for the next time I'm in the area, so I can try more milkshakes, more menu specialties, and meet more of the amazing staff!

A Nostalgic Adventure at Corvette Diner - A Six-Year Update After revisiting Corvette Diner multiple times over the past six years, I'm excited to share an updated perspective on this iconic diner and game room at Liberty Station. Arrival and Waiting Experience: To avoid the weekend rush, we make it a point to arrive early. The popularity of Corvette Diner means it gets busy quickly, and while they don't take reservations, the wait times are generally manageable, averaging around 20 minutes. The 90-minute dining limit is clearly communicated, and most patrons adhere to it, ensuring a smooth turnover. Parking: If you're arriving after 1 pm, parking can be a challenge, but we've found a sweet spot between the Market and the diner when exploring Liberty Station. Ambiance and Decor: Corvette Diner excels in creating a vibrant atmosphere with cool signs, posters, a shake stand, a bar, and even a DJ booth. The unique interior, featuring a full-sized Corvette at the entrance, immediately sets the tone for a nostalgic experience. The attention to detail in the decor enhances the overall ambiance, making it clear that this is not just a meal but an event. Customer Service: The service is commendable, even if the waitresses are very busy. Anticipating a 10-15 minute interval between interactions, I make sure to get everything I need at once. Despite the hustle, the staff is consistently friendly and helpful, contributing positively to the overall experience. Dining Experience: The menu primarily consists of classic diner fare, from chili burgers to sandwiches and fries. While the food doesn't reach culinary heights, it complements the nostalgic environment. I usually get a burger or sandwich, which are priced well. Game Room: The inclusion of a game room adds a great dimension to the diner. Playing games while waiting for food or a table elevates the overall experience, making it more than just a meal. Combined with the DJ, occasional waitress dances, and nostalgic decor, Corvette Diner truly feels like an entertaining event. In conclusion, Corvette Diner remains a favorite for its nostalgic ambiance, friendly staff, and the added fun of the game room. While the food is decent but not exceptional, the overall experience makes it a worthwhile destination for those seeking more than just a meal. We'll undoubtedly continue our tradition of returning to this lively spot.
