We've eaten at the Redwood for breakfast, lunch and dinner and never been disappointed. The hostess and waitstaff are friendly and accomodating. It's a real neighborhood diner. The waitstaff calls many of the regular patrons by name. I like the breakfast omelets. At lunch, they're known for their hot dogs. Sandwiches are good too. There are daily specials for lunch... More

We were travelling through the Capitol Region on a long car trip, and the usual national chains didn't seem appealing. Consulting TripAdvisor, we gave the Redwood Diner a try. It is just a short distance from the Thruway, we used our nav system to get there. The building is pretty ordinary, outside and in. However, the hostess and the waitress... More

It was great!! Hadn't eaten there in years (I don't get home for a visit very often) but it was excellent. Service was very good, our waitress and hostess both attentive, and food was really good. THANKS and I'll be back there next time I'm in Schenectady.

Found this place on TripAdvisor as we were passing through and needed to stop and get a quick bite to eat. Nostalgic looking diner, with good food and good prices. My husband had the sausage and pepper sandwich special- it looked so good and he said it was. I had the hot dog with special sauce and it was delicious.... More

We have been going to Redwood restaurant for many years. The prices are cheap and the food is great. A nice family restaurant. We have never had a bad meal.

We had Sunday Breakfast at the Redwood Diner in Schenectady. It was very good and fast. My husband had an ham omelette which was very good - I had eggs with an english muffin. They give you alot of home fries - without onions. Good place to go for breakfast.
