Delicious food, great variety. I had the croissant french toast (awesome!) with a HUGE side of corned beef hash with a nice grilled crust on it (pics).

This was only my 3rd visit to Colonial Diner. The first time had to have been over 5 years ago, and it was wonderful: great food & service. The 2nd time was what we swore would be our last: mediocre food, ridiculously long wait considering the place was half empty, and our waitress was fairly miserable. (I found out later that this was becoming the norm).

I had read somewhere that it was renovated, with new owners/management, so when I had the opportunity to try it again, I did. Wow, I am SO glad I gave Colonial a chance to redeem themselves - SO so good! The only reason it didn't get a fifth star is that as many staff as I thought I was seeing, there was quite a wait throughout my time there. Otherwise, VERY impressed with the turnaround!
