I had a very good experience at Fair Lawn Diner. My friends and I went for a late dinner and tried the banana and berries crepes. Our waitress was named Mila, she was very sweet and the service was awesome. I recommend Fair Lawn Diner very clean and great food!

This is the first time I've come to the Fair Lawn Diner after the change in ownership (as it was the Empress Diner prior).
Everything seems to have improved. The renovations make the space look nicer, the service is friendly and prompt, and even the food seems of better quality.
However, the prices have also expectedly leveled-up: I ordered three pancakes with strawberries ($13) and my daughter ordered three pancakes stuffed with cherries...

Fair Lawn Diner is a delightful spot that perfectly captures the essence of classic American diners. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere. The extensive menu offers something for everyone, from hearty breakfasts served all day to mouthwatering sandwiches and dinner specials.
What truly stands out is the quality of the food. The pancakes are fluffy and delicious, while the burgers are cooked to perfection. Don't...
