The wisdom diner is a pretty great diner. So I have a rule about diners in NJ they all seem to now make chicken cordon bleu, so that’s my goto when out. If it’s a Greek diner then I will then get the gyro. They had cordon bleu so that’s what I ordered. This was a well made one, they didn’t give you too much like some places. Sauce was well done and there was a correct amount of cheese chicken and ham. Salty but that’s ok for this type of restaurant.
I came back and had their gyro another time. Their gyro was very fresh sauce was the right amount I’ve been to other places where they just seem to go through the motions of a gyro but don’t have any real love behind it, but not here.
I recommend this place, especially if you’re on the turnpike and you want food, don’t goto loves truck stop, drive a little bit from there and stop off here instead.

We have been coming to this diner for many years. Last night was the worst. Food over cooked. Service was very slow. Was there almost 2 hours at a diner. That’s not good .

I am a grumpy old man and I could find nothing to grump about. Four of us ordered different plates, all arrived hot, plated well and cooked to perfection. None of the four of us could finish as the portions were generous. They are the epitome of the hometown diner. As I said, there was nothing about this experience I did not like.
Vegetarian options: Did not see any vegetarian options or vegan , just regular basic diner food 🤔 it comes up as a place to go for these options , but clearly has none in any part of the menu salads are not vegan section nor vegetarian when there are no meals labeling them as such
