Definitely try this diner. It seems as if the majority of their food is actually made from scratch, in house. As per our incredible waitress Allison (and Alex), if it's not made in house, it is sourced locally. The minute I looked at the menu I knew I'd have to come back. So many dishes sounded excellent. The food we ordered was absolutely incredible. I adored every item we tried. The brussel sprout appetizer was mythically delicious and left me insatiably yearning for more. They had my favorite dish, chicken fried steak. Everyone at the table commented on how they've never seen more perfectly cooked eggs. To add to the legendary food, Allison was arguably the kindest human on the planet. She was funny, patient, and knowledgeable. Not just about the food but about medicine, life, and the meaning of true happiness. Something about the way she spoke made me want to keep listening to her. When she asked my name for our table, she quite literally sang it!! Id say give her a raise but I don't think that's enough... Maybe she deserves a Welcome Diner of her own. Overall my experience was way beyond 5 stars. I plan to take all my friends and family here when they come to visit. As I write this, my father is coming to visit next week and I 100% will be coming back to Welcome Diner to share my experience with him.

We came for the first time on our way to the airport. We sat outside and it was lovely. So pleasantly surprised that everything we ordered was wonderful enough to order again. Our server was also so friendly and helpful! Highly recommend!

Tasty tasty! Tons of flavor! Loved the deviled eggs. Everything was obviously made with love of good food and fresh ingredients. Jam was fresh and wonderful. We sat outside in the patio garden in the tree shade. Kid and dog friendly. Servers were kind and gentle.

Spent a week in Sedona and flew out of Phoenix, but before we left we had lunch at Welcome Diner and each person in our group of 4 said we would come back. Friendly service, veg options, and delicious food. So close to the Phoenix airport so highly recommend!

Friendly staff and welcoming environment. Parking was easy when I went, but I can see how it might get tricky. It is mainly street parking. I had the welcome burger. It came out quick and was cooked to order. Taste was good. Not the best, but worth a try. They have a large outdoor and also indoor seating. Handicap accessible and vegan options.
