“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional service from Yanerys!

I had the pleasure of having lunch at Mary’s Restaurant, and the best part of my experience was the incredible service provided by Yanerys. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm smile and made to feel truly welcome. Their attention to detail, kindness, and professionalism were beyond impressive.

Yanerys was very attentive! Yanerys is a true treasure for this restaurant.

If you are eating at Mary’s, I recommend ordering Yanerys—you won’t be disappointed! We will definitely return, thanks to your exceptional service.“

“I had the Taylor ham, egg, and cheese with hash browns on an everything bagel from DB Breakfast and wow, it was absolutely amazing. The sandwich was perfectly balanced: crispy hash browns, flavorful Taylor ham, and gooey melted cheese all stacked between a fresh, toasted everything bagel. Every bite was packed with flavor and satisfaction.

If you’re looking for a next-level breakfast sandwich that hits all the right notes, this one is it. Highly recommend.“

“Had a fabulous time at this IHOP location, served very quickly and had the best customer service from a worker by the name of Cliff. He effortlessly made us, the guests, feel welcomed as if we’d entered a humble abode. I commend IHOP for having such a great workforce!“

“Best Eggs Benedict in town!“

“oh my god it's been 4 months since my husband and myself poped in for breakfast on our weekend getaway, and I CANNOT stop thinking about how AMAZING the food was.... looks like another 9 hour trip is in our near future 😭😍 p.s. get the pancakes🫶🏻“

“I love coming here! There's a little hidden room in the back with seating... The staff are friendly and helpful. The food is DELICIOUS!!! Sometimes I just stop in for a chai and a croissant... Sometimes I sit and have a meal.. either way, Minias never disappoints!! OMG try their banana oatmeal!!!!!!!!!“

“Have been here multiple times since we moved to the area 2 years ago and have always been more than satisfied. The food is always delicious no matter what we get (too many amazing dishes to name!)

Tip: if you're going on a weekend, to avoid a long wait, call ahead to be placed on the waitlist!“

“Bagel House always delivers excellent service and delicious food! The team is friendly, efficient, and makes you feel welcome the moment you walk in. Their bagels are fresh, flavorful, and perfectly made — whether it’s breakfast or lunch, you can always count on a great meal. It’s a go-to spot we truly enjoy and highly recommend!“

“Excellent.. Axel, Arelean Nicole all the waiters, waitresses, cooks, incredible staff.. it's like Cheers.. great friendly place great food.. great way to start the day.“

“One of our favorite places to take out. Everything is always fresh and the quality never changes. My husband and I love their wraps and my kids love their chicken fingers. The fries are the best and travel well / never soggy. The staff is also always so friendly - including and especially John who kindly runs the food out to my car anytime I call ahead if I happen to be with my kids so I don’t have to unload and load 2 kids just to run inside and grab the order. Thank you so much!!!“

“She was a friendly, attentive and caring. Would recommend her as a waitress and this IHOP location anytime“

“salmon cake platter with grits was great!“

“What a great and convenient place to have lunch or breakfast. I truly enjoy the sandwiches and soups. My favorite is beef barley on Tuesdays. Chicken noodle fills the bill any day with different pastas to satisfy your palate. Friendly service and just a great place to eat. Come and enjoy your meal, it will truly be worth it.!!!“

“I eat their tasty hamburgers all the time. Friendly people. Very clean. Close to where I live. Very convenient location for me.“

“the Ecuadorian sandwich...that's not a real item from my country... you should change the name I feel you should google the right food“

“This is a great little café/diner right next to the Westfield train station. We are fairly new to Westfield and went there for the first time a couple of weeks ago. We were wowed by the wonderful customer service of our waitress, Cindy. She was very attentive, provided great order suggestions and also brought over their delicious housemade hot sauce to go along with our eggs. All the food we ordered was wonderful, including the short stack of chocolate chip pancakes, the egg and cheese sandwich on a hard roll, and the Florentine omelette. The chef (maybe owner?), Ash even stopped by later on towards the end of our meal to check on how everything was. We meant to write this review right after that, but then never got around to it and when we went back today a few weeks later, we realized how much we needed to write this up! This time Kirsten and Cindy both helped us out, and Cindy remembered us by our orders from the last time even though we had only been here one time- very impressive and shows a great attention to detail and customer service. Ash came by also, and it was clear he remembered us as well. The food was fresh and tasty yet again (we got the French toast, egg and cheese sandwich, and Greek omelette this time) and the prices are great. This place is a gem and is definitely becoming one of our go-to spots!“

“Long review DISCLAIMER!!! I was traveling from the Carolinas to NYC and after shopping at the Linden Walmart Supercenter, I was very hungry and desired some pancakes. After scouring Google reviews for some place nearby besides Ihop to satisfy my hunger, I decided to check out Kelly's Breakfast at 159 Elmora Avenue. However, I was pressed for time on a sit down meal since I was trying to make it to Brooklyn in time to pick my Mother up from church. Well, I just happened to find myself near New Jersey this morning and wanted to still have my meal from Kelly's Breakfast. Around my morning arrival time paid street parking in front of the establishment was limited but I was able to find parking on the side street within a short walking distance. I was met with a greeting and a friendly smile as I entered and approached the counter. No, this is not a big place, but with ample seating to accommodate 2 or 4 guests at a table the vibe is inviting, warm, and relaxing! There's a TV tune to the news if you're interested! As I was dining alone I glanced to see what was the latest happenings in our world. It did not take long for my order to arrived to my table and I gave it a 10 for presentation. Also, a 10 for taste, portion size, and quality. Another 10 for CUSTOMER SERVICE OVERALL and accommodating a small request reference my phone. The prior reviews that stirred me in the direction to Kelly's Breakfast did it justice and I will continue with my 5 Stars. Kelly, who was also the hostess, is charming and checks on you to ensure everything is good. I will be back in my future travels!!!“

“5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Delish as always. Love the shallots, leeks & goat cheese crepe & the best coffee! My fiancé loves the steak sandwich. Never disappoints & love to eat outside in good weather. Great service, great food for great prices. Tres bonne!👨🏻‍🍳“

“Really cute place with plenty of clean tables. Staff is nice and friendly and even brought my bagel over to me. A little expensive, I had an everything cheese egg and chorizo for $9. The chorizo is extra cost but very good, adds a nice zing and crisp to it. The everything bagel is also very flavorful. Best bagel I’ve had in Bayonne.“

“George's was amazing to work with. They were more than willing to help me plan a nice breakfast spread for my students...complete with full platters of scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, pancakes, hash browns, fruit... They were kind enough to help me pack my car as well. I would HIGHLY recommend them! 👌 👍“

“I haven't eaten here in years but the Italian chicken sandwich I had about 17 years ago is worth a late review... It was the best chicken sandwich I've ever had. It was made with the juiciest chopped up center breast meat, I thought this spot closed years ago... I wonder if they still make that sandwich the same way they did back in the day?!!!!“

“Food is great! They are the nicest and kindest kindest people ♥️🙏“

“Loved the atmosphere and food! Dani was spot on. Had a wonderful time with my family. Exactly what I needed!!!💜💜Time with my awesome family!!“

“I eat breakfast here about 3-4x a week and the food is good. My only issue is that on Aug 12 2025 I ordered my usually breakfast sandwiches and instead of telling me they ran out of eggs they sold me the sandwiches at full price and yea beef bacon cheese on a roll with jelly does not hit the same without eggs. I didn't hold it against them and I came in today Aug 13 and me not even asking for anything free or any favors started to inform the woman at the counter what happened and she just cut me off mid sentence and asked for my order she clearly did not care. I left it alone and this was my favorite breakfast spot but today will be the last time I give them my business. The food is great tho.“

“We definitely recommend A&G Luncheonette, If you are looking for a place to enjoy a delicious breakfast with your family, they have a delicious seasoning and excellent customer service, places that are no longer found in the surrounding area“

“Great Friendly Staff & Owner The Is Always Smiling And Pleasant. The Bagels Are Always Made Fresh Daily And If You Get There Early Hot. The Breakfast Sandwiches Are Always Great On A Bagel, Roll or Crossant. The Coffee Is Always Fresh. Keep Up The Great Work!!!“

“El exquisito ceviche mixto que probé en mi vida lo conosi aquí , la sopa de mariscos rompe cualquier récord , los lomo saltados son igual que en Peru y los desayunos americanos que les encantan a mis hijos no me cabe duda que este restaurante tiene todo me encanta , es difícil encontrar un lugar que cumpla las exigencias de uno , mi admiración a los cosineros y personal del restaurante! Nunca cambien“

“Went with the wife after picking up our painted clay from Color Me Mine nearby. We were impressed by the colorful chalk menu up on the wall, with a limited yet delightful selection of salads and sandwiches.

We ordered the BLAT and the Mona Lisa sandwiches, along with the Vermont salad.

The staff are very friendly and take your order almost immediately, even with a line. The drinks we ordered were prepared right on the spot and ready in no time.

The sandwiches themselves were ready in about 10-15 minutes, fresh and hot

All the ingredients were incredibly fresh and high quality, and at a reasonable price as well. Averaging at $12 per sandwich, we were left full and satisfied.

The same can be said for the salad, which was quite delectable.

Arnold Palmer 10/10
Latte was iffy according to the barista wife, but nobody is perfect

We will 100% be going again, one of the best sandwiches we’ve had in Jersey by far!“

“My go-to sandwich spot! Delicious! Inexpensive! My son is also completely addicted to the grilled cheese sandwiches they make, we go every Saturday for lunch. I love that everything is clean and sanitary, not every deli knows how to make a good “Bodega sandwich” but this spot NAILS it.“

“I've known Dino and his lovely wife Helen for more than 30+ years in the food industry. Excellence in every aspect of the restaurant business is par excellence and superb. Food is always top notch and employees are very friendly. This is the place. Thank you Dino and Helen for 30+ years of greatness.“

“awesome food awesome workers terrific owner“

“I ride by this place all the time and kept saying I was going to stop by I finally stopped by and I wasn’t disappointed the food was excellent the Floridian French toast I loved the fresh fruit , turkey sausage good and the biscuit with turkey gravy is hard to find everyone cooks it with pork so I really enjoyed it . The honey caramel crunch ice coffee and watermelon wakeup drink was so refreshing I will be back our new brunch spot ..“

“I’ve been eating here for almost 10 years. The food is OUT OF THIS WORLD. People use the word butter milk pancakes loosely. Theirs really taste like butter milk. Everything is good. Same chef for years. My only complaint is, They never open on time, they’ve actually been closed for a while with no notice. Shame because me and my girlfriend are from out of town and waited outside for almost 2 hours. If they correct punctuality, I would give it five out of five stars because the food is phenomenal.“

“Always a delicious home style breakfast - cooked however we ask… truly true best bacon around!! We adore Maryanne and Jack… James may steal the show tho!!“

“This week Pimientos de Padrón Chipirones Vieiras Berberechos Ameixas Cada producto above and beyond. Highly recommended.“

“They have the best cheese grits around! I've had omletes, beef sausage, home fries and lunch sandwiches. I have never been disappointed by any item on the menu. I recommend calling ahead to pick up your order. Sometimes there can be a long wait but it is definitely worth it.“

“Best taylor ham egg & cheese in NJ!!!!!“

“A very wonderful person, seller and cook. The food was not expensive but big and very well prepared. And most importantly, the attitude towards me was at a high level and the food was served with a sincere smile, which is now a rarity. I recommend to everyone“

“Always stop in for breakfast when I'm up by Union. Their Bacon egg and cheese plus a coffee taste amazing

Parking: Usually plenty of parking, 2 cars can fit in the front on the street and 5+ in the lot, depends how busy“

“My friend and I had great moments at Mauricio’s Restaurant (yes, we visited it twice). The food is amazing, and the atmosphere is incredible with a lot of good people. Staff and regular guests made us feel like home! Go for the Grilled Cheese with your favourite topping and just enjoy! Highly recommended 😌“

“Great deli. Just have to be careful they will over charge if you don't check the order in store. The food was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the staff went above and beyond to make sure everything was just right. Highly recommend this place!“
