Tops Diner offers a warm and inviting atmosphere with exceptional service and delicious food. The menu features a variety of options, from classic diner dishes like pancakes and eggs to unique offerings such as Mama's meatballs with spicy vodka sauce and cheesesteak egg rolls. Standout entrees include short rib rigatoni and chicken and broccoli. The tres leches cake is a must-try for dessert, with a thin layer of caramel underneath the whipped cream. The service is consistently excellent, with knowledgeable and attentive servers who ensure that no dirty dish remains on the table for long. Reservations are recommended, as Tops can get busy, and guests have noted the importance of planning ahead. While the diner can be very loud and parking may be a challenge during peak times, the lively atmosphere adds to the experience. The recently renovated Tops Diner has been praised for its fantastic food and top-notch service, with attentive servers like Robert making the visit even better. It is considered more upscale than a typical Jersey diner, so guests should be prepared to spend some money and read their bill carefully, especially regarding gratuity and charges for not using cash. Some customers mentioned that the space can be drafty, but overall, the experience is worth the price. The diner is a great spot for family and friends, especially in the evening, with a lively atmosphere, cultural music that changes genre, and even a live DJ, making it enjoyable for those from other countries. The overall experience is rated 10/10, with friendly servers like Billy providing attentive service. Guests enjoyed dishes like nachos and penne vodka with grilled chicken, describing everything as great and emphasizing that Tops Diner remains a top choice for a memorable dining experience beyond typical diner fare.
