Inside LI's most patriotic diner that's a haven for first responders: 'This place is so special'
Briefly

Gus Tsiorvas has converted his Bethpage diner into a patriotic tribute celebrating first responders, displaying numerous decorations and offering free custom 'Embassy Diner USA' baseball caps. His family connection to law enforcement deepens this commitment, as he aims to honor their sacrifices and ensure they feel welcomed at his establishment. With enthusiastic customer feedback, Tsiorvas is dedicated to making the diner a haven of gratitude and patriotism, reinforcing his belief in the importance of recognizing those who serve the community selflessly.
"I love America. We should all be grateful that we live here," Embassy Diner owner Gus Tsiorvas, 44, told The Post. "And the customer reaction? Ninety-nine percent say they love it."
"That's what makes this place so special," regular John Gatto, guitarist for the Long Island band The Good Rats, told The Post while waiting for his dinner. "We owe [first responders] a lot. So I'm behind this 100%."
No matter where they go, first responders should know they are welcomed and celebrated here. That's my goal with the Embassy Diner.
'Home of the Brave' is even my corporation's name, so that's what my employees see on their paychecks."
