If you're ever traveling in Vancouver, Washington, take a trip to 1110 SE 164th St. and check out the Stardust Diner. We've lived in this town for 3 years and finally decided to try it. I can't believe we didn't stop before. This is a little metal diner just like in the 50's. Complete with a soda counter, malts and shakes, root beer floats and some of the best comfort food imaginable. There are table jukeboxes and a huge jukebox at the door. Walking in the music plays welcoming you to another, more pleasant era and a step back in to simpler times. The walls were filled with old pictures and old magazine and newspaper advertisements and Time magazine covers. The girls wore their pony tails and the guys had their hair neatly parted on the side. Their uniforms were neat and clean and the restaurant was spotless. I have to say, in all the places I've traveled and restaurants we've dined in, this was by far the friendliest, most helpful staff. They checked on us just the right amount of times and were on top of removing things from our table. The longer we were there, the busier the place got and the staff remained unrattled and friendly.
Way to go Stardust Diner! You gained repeat customers!
