A neighborhood table, with room for everyone.

Halfmoon Diner opened its doors in 1989 when Peter and Christina Vasilakos set out to create a place where good food, generous portions, and familiar faces came together. Today, their sons Jimmy and Ted carry on that tradition alongside a team that has truly become family—including employees who have been with us since day one. Over the years, we’ve watched generations grow up around our tables. Some of our team started with us as teenagers and still come back from college to work during their breaks. Our customers have become friends, our employees have become family, and the Halfmoon community has become part of who we are. We’re proud to be a classic American diner with a little Greek heritage woven into everything we do. From homemade baked goods and challah French toast made in-house to Christina’s spinach pie and our famous crabmeat stuffing made from a closely guarded family recipe, some things simply shouldn’t change. For more than 37 years, we’ve kept our portions generous, our prices fair, and our doors open to everyone. As we look toward the next generation of our family, one thing will always remain the same: Halfmoon Diner is family serving family.
