I was super excited when they first opened! The once run down diner was turned into a swan! Everything was beautiful looking, and there was stale smell in the air that once lingered. Ive been there many times, and have ordered take out several times. Last time I called, I was asked to leave my credit card number for pickup. ***STRIKE ONE*** Excuse me? A credit card number? I hesitantly did because I was hungry, and they are only right around the corner from me. When I asked about the whole credit card thing, the young lady told me that, "It was to ensure that I came to pick up my food." I got a little snarky, but whatever. ***STRIKE TWO AND THREE*** I evaluated my check, as I always do...and noticed an additional line called a "Take Out Fee" For $1.10 added to my bill!! Excuse me for just a minute, but what?? Since when do you charge people to pick up food from a diner??? Ive had take out food from MUCH better places and have never been charged a take out fee. Are you kidding? I will NOT ever go back to them again. Ive spent a really decent amount of money there for their over priced frozen burgers and sandwiches, and you can be rest assured that I wont be doing that again. FYI, my Medium burgers we order came well done. A burger doesnt go from Medium to Well Done in the matter of 3 minutes of me leaving there to go to my home only 2 minutes away. Such a sad state of affairs.

I have been to this place several times before and have really found it to be good for breakfast only until today. I decided to go for a quick breakfast with my family and had a bad experience at this establishment. First off my coffee was not hot it was barely warm and served in a skimpy cup that looked liked a childs tea party cup that you cant even get your fingers into the handle to pick it up. Secondly the food did not arrive all at the same time, my wife ordered French toast, eggs and bacon and had to wait for the eggs upon which arriving were cold and my son had ordered a cheese omlet that was also cold and had cheese inside that was not melted. Lastly all the breakfast orders were served with extremely burnt toast. I have been to many diners up and down the East coast and have never found one to be as bad as my local diner here in Ewing NJ. I guess next time I have to travel a little farther for a good breakfast or make my own at home. I would recommend to stay away from this place or go for fast food in a pinch.

First of all, the manager and waitress were lovely. Aside from the waitress forgetting to tell us the order my mother got was no longer available. She instead gave her a mahi mahi fish for $17 which my mother did not want after making us wait a full hour and 10 mins for our food. My mahi mahi was $20 and burned, not to mention she forgot my corn and the dish was bare aside from a smaller than Palm sized fish and cold potato. She promised to bring the manager to amend the situation and did not being her over. We paid and left sour and still hungry. $50 lost. Will not return.

I HATE THIS NEW DINER. the waitresses are rude and need more training. I had 3 cups of coffee and 2 of them were cold. The last cup I had I literally stuck finger in the coffee while the waitress was standing there and she still told me the coffee was hot....then she walked away. I ordered sweet potato fries and they wasnt done so I ordered some more fries and they we still cold. Upon walking in no one spoke or greeted us...the waitress put the bill in a puddle if water that was on the table... It was horrible and I do not recommend this diner to anyone.

I just ordered from this place and I got a chicken Ceasar salad for $17!!!! ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS! And my friend got a chicken Ceasar wrap for $10... Im confused on this price difference. The wrap and salad were gross. I do not recommend going to this place ever!!! The guy was rude on the phone and in person. DO NOT waste your time going here, unless you want to spend a ridiculous amount money!

This is still the same old diner, not saying they dont work hard or do a good job, but the lack in originality does not help this place stick out in a town full of mediocre diners. They need to be more direct with lingerers though, theyve had some real bums sit at the bar counter a few times that just made me shudder, the guy would occasionally fall asleep sitting up!

I had to wait for forever. The food had absolutely no taste. They dont use seasoning at all. Food was cold when it came out And the waitresses dont communicate with each other. Before this place changed it was two peters diner and it was way better idk what they got going on now. They need to go back to the old staff.

Went to this restaurant today had a lox sandwich..... I more than had soon as I stepped outside I threw up. It took 2 Pepsi, 1 Gingerale, 1 Lager Mint and 2 Table spoons of Peptobismol for me not to go to their hospital Lox Lovers/ Fish Lovers beware.... I would not give this place no stars but Google recommends it.

Good location. Has gone through some changes over the year. Prices are a bit high for diner food. The quality however is very good with a very large menu and large portions. Serves adult beverages very friendly and attentive staff.

My family came here after my sisters graduation for an early dinner because the location was close. While I didnt expect much from the restaurant, I found the prices to be fair and the service to be excellent!

Good lunch option for soup and sandwich ...or anything else for that matter. Its really still a diner. Think the name change was to distance it from the notorious YouTube fight.

Better than when it was 2 Peters but not a true diner like it used to be Parkside. Just not the same family quality of community. Too expensive.

Dine in or take out, its all good :) Between this location and their original location, both diners are great. I recommend this place.

After the renovation the food was good, it quickly went down hill. I swear the chefs/cooks have never even eaten their own food.

Best food in town. You get lots for the money and the bartenders use freshly squeezed lemon and lime juice for cocktails.
