new diner

my friend says:

Wow! I didn't know there was a new diner by the gym.

I say:

Yeh! It's new. It's been here a month. I haven't tried it yet.

Can I say that?

Thanks!

PreciousJonesIs it just a lazy way of saying it?
You could say that; in fact, I'd say that. Still, it's acceptable in everyday conversation.
