This is my second time eating at this diner. The first time I asked for a chef salad to go and the cook fixed his version of a salad. I took it back and got a refund. Tonite, I ordered a medium steak and scramble eggs with a diet coke. Instead, I got steak well done and melted cheese thrown on top as if it was an after thought. Plus, the waiter gave me diet pepsi and lied to me and told me it was diet coke. The food was tasteless. I would give Arena less than one star if possible. No wonder it was less then three customers in the place when I walked in.

Horrible staff and the waitress shadia I had was very rude and they gave me my food with raw bacon like thats so unsantiatary will definitely be contacting the health inspection to go check that place out cause they obviously arent following protocol with the kitchen situation I wish I could rate this place no stars horrible food waste of money

My friend puked twice after eating here. The food was awful, and they refused to remove anything from the check. The two men in charge of the diner were very aggressive and insulting when I asked them to take something off the check. My friend and I are both shorter females, and honestly I felt slightly threatened by the two mens behavior.

Went here with a friend after a concert at NJPAC and I had a great experience. The breakfast food I ordered since it was after midnight was so good. Can not go wrong here. The staff was very warm and attentive. Open 24 hours, go and experience it. Ill be back.

Do yourself a favor and stay away from this dump. The worse cheeseburger Ive ever had. Nasty, soggy linguini with weeks-old, dry grilled chicken (we found a long piece of hair in the pasta - ew). Go to Chit Chat up the street or McDonalds instead.

We often stop here for lunch because its near our office. Usual diner faire here. Always plenty of parking in their lot, food is good, prices are reasonable, staff is friendly, everything is clean. Im easy to please, but this place is good.

Been to all the diners around and these guys have the best pancakes. There must be double amounts of butter in the batter cause they are extra delicious and have kind of a yellow tint to them. Regardless, they are impressive.

Menu says $7 and change for chicken fingers n fries but some how its magical $14 and change after "taxes" ......and they were not worth $14 for 4 chickens fingers and a pan of fries

Its your typical restaurant, american food. Nothing to write home about. The food is good, very good desserts. Nothing fancy just a good place to eat.

Sent back food because it tasted horrible and the still tried to charge me for it. Most of the food was bad with tiny portions, never going back.

Great pancakes and burgers. Service is good. Coffee is also good. Convenient location near Hackensack Hospital with lots of parking.
