Great food! Service likely to improve.
Family went out to eat at Stonecreek Diner, you might miss the place which only has signs on the building at the corner of Stonecreek and Hill Rd N. The restaurant is the next intersection south of the traffic light for the Marcus Theaters/Barnes & Nobles shopping plaza. There were six of us and we ordered as follows:

Appetizer: Very good mozarella sticks however there were only 5. Not enough for everyone, waitress could have let us know or stated on menu. Just a minor issue.

Drinks, free refills. $1.25 each Also a plus for the waitress was the complementary milk brought out for the kids to go with the waffle (they had bought soda.)

Time to deliver the appetizer and salads was excellent, time to main meal was very slow. We probably spent 90 minutes total at the restaurant. This again is likely to improve with experience. They were 70% filled on a week night, and appeared to have trouble keeping up with the crowd.

Broasted Chicken which is lightly battered/breaded and placed in a specially designed Broaster Co cooker which seals the chicken under pressure, locking the tender chicken with no greasy taste at all. Off the dinners, this was the best choice and a specialty of the house. Fries and a colorful salad were chosen as sides, both were excellent. Square dinner rolls also came with the meal, which were soft and very good. Rating for this meal: *****
Cost: $6.45

The catfish dinner with sides mashed potatoes and macoroni salad did not fare as well. The deep fried catfish was undercooked and not a very good quality fish. Mashed potatoes were oversalted, the rolls again were excellent. My acid test of telling the waitress about the problem should have brought a manager. Not only did it not bring a manager, the waitress failed to follow-up on the meal. Out waitress appeared nervous and the service was less the excellent. She was trying very hard though and I have no doubt it will improve with experience. Rating for the meal: *
Cost: $8.25

Belgium Waffle: Excellent, my daughter raved about the waffle and so did others at our table who tried it. They do serve breakfast all day. Rating for this meal: *****
Cost: $3.95

Kid's Meal - Spaghetti w/ meatball - Spaghetti was very good, although she liked the Belgium Waffle shared from another plate better. Rating: ****
Cost: $3.50

Reuben sandwich - Excellent, don't expect a tall stacked New York style, but this hot sandwich was very good. Served with fries, very crispy and cole slaw was also very good. Rating for this meal: ****
Cost: $5.75

Chicken Parmesian:
Excellent Chicken Breast appeared to be broasted and topped generously with cheese. Spaghetti was very good, although I ran out of sauce before spaghetti. Served with salad, garlic bread (very good). Rating for this meal: *****
Cost: $6.75

Dessert was Lemon Marange Pie and sundaes. Both were excellent. $2.25 and single scoop for $1.45.

Overall excellent food, but stay away from the catfish. Give it a try for yourself and keep in mind that most of the wait staff are still new at their job.

The decor is American Diner with many booths and tables for 4 and 6 (or more.) When you first walk in one wall has a picture of an old movie theater playing an Elvis movie and '50s cars. A large silver saucer hangs from the ceiling for the entrance lighting. This is a large restaurant (seats well over 100) with a smoking area well separated in another room from the main area. We were in non-smoking and had no issues with any smoke venting to our area.

You pay for the meal at the register and this required no waiting.    [10 Mar 2005 18:57:46]

$14.95 Broasted Chicken Special a Winner
The recent carry-out only special of 16 pieces of broasted chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy, cole slaw and 6 rolls is excellent. The crispy broasted chicken has a tasty coating, and comes with extra large servings of mashed potatoes, gravy, and cole slaw. The 6 rectangular Heiner's dinner rolls were very fresh. While the pieces are somewhat smaller when broasted, you do have a wide variety of chicken with an equal mix of breasts, thighs, legs and wings.    [16 Jan 2006 18:30:44]

Great food, friendly staff
We just finished our first dinner at this establishment, thanks to an Entertainment coupon leading us to try it. The restaurant was clean and cozy, the staff all friendly with us and other customers. My husband had the grilled chicken sandwich and a bowl of chili. The chicken was tender and juicy, with a good char-grilled flavor. The chili was sort of a Cincinnati-style, very thick and not too sweet. I started out with a bowl of homemade ham and bean soup and then enjoyed the beef tips over rice. The bean soup was average, maybe a little too salty. The beef tips were superb; each element of the dish could be noted: grilled steak tips, mushrooms, green peppers, onions and a wonderful wild rice pilaf. There was no heavy, overpowering sauce to mute the distinct flavors - I liked that. Our waitress was friendly and helpful with a great sense of humor. We overheard another employee talking with the small child of a customer and answering the girl's many questions about what she was doing and why. There were some minor problems, such as requested onion not being on the sandwich. There really wasn't anything upsetting, though. It was a welcoming, comfortable atmosphere. We'll be back!    [28 Feb 2006 20:58:46]

Below Standard
My wife and I had lunch there today at 1:00 after the rush. Probably seven tables occupied. I ordered a rueben with fries and gravy and my wife had a turkey club with fries. We both had a salad with ranch. The salad was decent though it was comprised of iceburg only, no other greens. The rueben tasted okay but but as decided to open it because something was lacking. There seemed to be about 2and a half ounces of chopped corned beef. Yes Chopped, not sliced. That was a first for me. The club was okay but again small meat portion. The fries were way way way undercooked. Some you could feel and taste the rawness. Our server came by was to check drinks but never inquired about our meal.We went to pay and the gentleman asked " how was everything?" and I replied so-so. He repeated so-so but didn't go any further. Apparently so-so is acceptable. I doubt there will be a return visit.    [07 Sep 2007 19:22:38]

Love breakfast
The poor service actually turned us off from them when they first opened and I believe the menu was more limited then too. I am glad we went back and tried again because things have improved and the breakfast is fabulous. I prefer it to the national chains in the area.

Very generous portions.

The service, however, is still hit and miss. Sometimes you get really good waitresses and other times not so much and the turnover seems low so it seems to depend, with a couple of consistent exceptions, on the mood of the waitress at that time. *ugh*

It's not enough to keep us from coming back though. Great breakfast!    [24 Oct 2007 16:20:40]
