Editorial Review for Majestic Diner – by Michael Longshore
The Scene
Oozing local-landmark status with its temperamental neon and Hopper-esque plate-glass window, this Ponce de Leon fixture is home to the roving human circus that keeps Ponce just ahead of the gentrification curve. It's also a favorite late-night sobering up stop for the young, hard-partying Highlands crowd. The dining room features a long narrow counter and small, comfortable booths. Service is fast and no-nonsense.
The Food
This 24-hour diner features Southern-style short-order cooking, as well as traditional meat and threes, shrimp baskets and icebox pies. Breakfast food and burgers are the most reliable dishes, and a pork chop and eggs with a pecan waffle and black coffee really does the trick after modest bingeing in the Highlands.

vegetarians: all of the veggies are severely overcooked. Broccoli doesn't even look green any more, it's just a dark grey mush. Same with the Mac'n'Cheese. I don't think they've ever heard the term al dente. If you like vegetables to be cooked in a crock-pot, then this is your place. The rest of the food may be amazing though, I can't speak for that.
Pros: Nice ambience, cool waiters
Cons: mushy food

Seriously bad Cheddar Cheese Omelette I had there last night...It was basically three eggs folded around five or so slices of cheese, lacking all of the finesse a good omelette requires. I didn't complain because, well, they were open and I wasn't driving anywhere else. Veggie burger is good, vegetable soup is actually vegetarian, and the atmosphere is thick with hipsters and the intoxicated. Oh yeah, the grits are good too...
Pros: Friendly, Always Open
Cons: The Omelette I had SUCKED
