Went there late night and waited 10 minutes for the waitress to come over. didnt give us menus or anything, my wife went up and got them. people behind us had been waiting some time to get their food and the gentleman at the bar hadnt gotten his order in and was refilling his own drink from behind the counter. There were only 4 tables active but we had to call again for the waitress to take our order after waiting another 10 minutes. So twenty minutes in, we finally get our order and Im getting pretty bent out of shape. Had the order converted to take out. Took another 20 minutes to get our food and when I got home, they had not packed the extra sandwich I ordered. Terrible service. Will never ever eat there again.

Went there last weekend after 1am. It was 6 of us and we were seated fairly quickly. Not a single server came to our table in over 20 minutes. There was even another table of 6 who were sat slightly after us who were served before us. I subsequently left after waiting 20 minutes, but the rest of my group stayed behind. Their order was taken after 25-30 minutes. Prior to that terrible experience, I thought the diner was passable. The food was a 4 or 5/10 and the service was prompt.

When you arrive, the outside looks promising. It looks like an old school diner where you can get great food. However, when you sit down, the wait staff is so out of it they look like they just smoked up, the food takes forever to get to you, when it does the order is not only wrong but the food is bland as hell, and arrives lukewarm. Stay away if you care about having a decent meal.

Basically its terrific home cooking that someone else prepares. Served by people you enjoy talking with. And surrounded by loyal neighborhood residents who are regulars at the diner, which is an endorsement in itself. Breakfast, lunch, or dinner, you will leave planning to come back again. If you want to visit a genuine diner, this is it.

This used to be the best diner around but not anymore. If you go in late at night its full of drunk teenagers. If you go in the day its full of sassy staff who serve sub par food. Once found plastic in my french toast! Yuck! Not crazy about it anymore. But honestly, most diners in the area are OK at best.

LOVE IT!!!!! First time I had ever been there & it certainly wont be my last. I had the Kale Veggie burger with sweet potato fries & soup. OMG--huge portion! My friend had the Italian hotdog--again, his portion was huge. Our waitress was extremely nice and always came over to check in....

I absolutely loved this place. Our waitress was amazing and the food came out so fast. We didnt have long waits and I came with about 25 people. I got a burger and fries, the burger was well done, and it tasted homemade. Definetly will come back more often.

Amazing diner! Truly one of the best tastes of Jersey I have ever stumbled upon in my travels. Every bite was delicious and the chocolate chip pancakes were to die for! My waitress was phenomenal and the atmosphere is quite inviting and retro all at once!

Only ordered to go, but got a Chicken Parm dinner and it was fantastic. The spaghetti was a little soft, but not a deal breaker. When I went to pick up the staff was very funny, I imagine it would be the same if I were to dine inside.

The classic American diner. Open 24 hours, with a friendly staff and good food, its a great place to go with friends after an event at the Meadowlands, or after a night in the city. Conveniently located right off Route 3.

This is my favorite local diner. The owners are nice welcoming people. As a result there is little turn over in staff. The decor is cozy old style. Food is good, prices are decent and desserts are fantastic.

The omelette I had was okay. Nothing special. The service was cold and did not seem like they were too fond of their job. They just get an extra star for being open 24/7.

Great diner. But because of its location it doesnt get as crowded as other diners which I dont think are as good as this place. Always have something good as as special.

Overpriced for the quality! Ordered Taylor ham egg n cheese on a roll. Only had 1 slice of Taylor ham. If you want a good quality diner, go to Nutley Diner
