50 Best Diners near Linden

“Great chili dogs and fries from The Prince of Bayway!“

“Very clean and well-kept inside, despite the slightly ragged condition outside. Very reasonably priced, good diner food.“

“Every time I come here the food is great...Thanks Rich.“

“This was first visit back to Tops since their rebbiuld/renovaation and I wasn't dissapointed, the food was fantastic the service was beyond above par, Robert our server was excellent. I HIGHLY recommend making reservations otherwise you will be waiting a long time for a table. In true transparency TOPS is expensive, TOPS is not your regular Jersey diner, this is upscale at it's best so if you go be prepared to spend some money. I advise you read your bill very carefully so there are not questions when it comes to gratuity, and be prepared to be charge for not using cash. My one critique is that it was drafty. I went in knowing it wasn't going to be cheap, was it worth the price, ABSOLUTELY!!! The food & the service was top notch......I will be going back again.“

“Great service every time I’ve been there“

“Definitely one of the best breakfasts I’ve ever eaten! I had the Crab Cakes Benedict, with a side of bacon! The food was so incredibly delicious, I didn’t want it to to end! So worth the 30 minute drive from Bergen County! I’m already planning on a return visit!“

“I can't say enough good things. Food was awesome and hot, service was exceptional... ate there because of Facebook posts! Definitely Not Disappointed!“

“Generous amount of food. I ordered Turkey, which is one of the dishes I rate diners on. Compared to other diners, this is a bit above average. However, even with loads of gravy (they gave me a bowl full) and with a mild stuffing, I felt it was a little bland. Good for people on a low-salt diet? I needed to add a lot of pepper and some salt. I still would have liked a more savory taste. Nevertheless, the portion was big and the "side salad" was more like a mini salad entree. Take a look at the pictures. Wait staff was very nice. Lots of people there on a Sunday morning, so you may have to wait. Price is slightly high, but then everything is compared to a few years ago. BUT I'd rather pay more for this kind of quality. I will go back when I am in the area again.“

“It’s always a great little stop . Today I only had time for a hot chocolate ☕️ and homemade delicious blueberry 🫐 muffin .
Last month I had the veggie burger and fries . Delicious
Thank you

Parking: The bakery across the street is delicious 😋 also .“

“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.!!!“

“Such a great place with a wonderful atmosphere and great food we love it 😊“

“Best waitresses around! Great Greek burger Gyros excellent Great fries Eggs fast and perfect The cooks can make anything And make it perfect!! Dessert are the best around!! Cakes are to die for“

“Delicious food and authentic NJ diner experience at Seaport Diner!! I got the Reuben sandwich with fries, it was huge and had amazing flavor - the corned beef was tender, the cheese melty, rye bread was toasty, and the sauerkraut with Russian dressing made it perfect. Plus it was open face, a really unique touch, served with crunchy pickles, sauerkraut and yummy fries. A feast for sure! My family for sunny side eggs (perfectly cooked) with crispy bacon and pancakes. They were super happy, said it was delicious. The location is perfect for a meal near Newark airport. The service was great, food was served nice and hot, place was clean. And you get that cool New Jersey diner vibe with leather booths and cool bar seating. I definitely recommend Seaport Diner - we will be back!!“

“My toddler has been coming to Colonial since he was 2, and it truly feels like a second home for us. Every visit is a joy—he absolutely loves the food, and it’s always a treat to see him light up when he sees Michelle and Tommy. They are not just staff—they're warm, welcoming, and treat every guest like family.

The way they interact with the kids is so special—it’s rare to find that kind of genuine connection these days. This photo perfectly captures how happy and comfortable he feels here. Thank you, Colonial team, for always making our mornings brighter!“

“Good breakfast friendly staff“

“The food and the service. Always good!“

“For several years we, our family has breakfast every weekend.at MikesJr Diner. The breakfast selections are great.I love the Oatmeal & Blueberries, my hubby and grandson love a big breakfast . The staff is so warm, friendly and personable. . We order take out for dinner at least once a week Dinner portions are tremendous. The food is very good. It has a nice family atmosphere. We highly recommend Mikes Jr as a great place for breakfast and all other meals. Thank you ☕️🍳 🥞🧇🥣“

“We went tonight, 1/11/23 after work at around 4:30 and we’re very pleased not only with our food, but our waitress was great! She listened to everything we wanted and we got everything exactly how we wanted it….she was very good! Thank you to Martha for excellent service…..👍“

“Any place you can go where the food is really good. The service is great, they are very attentive. And everyone that is there is vibing, you can sit down in the dining room or in the front. I've been there twice in both times we're good times. Breakfast lunch or dinner...This is my spot“

“Be prepared to be asked if you would like a menu.
In reply to the owner: nothing happened, just thought it was funny being asked for a menu since it was the first time I was there. Then I noticed the girl asked everyone that came in, not just me.“

“My breakfast was great this morning.“

“Good place to eat, located on the main street in the city of Maplewood. Outside there are several tables and chairs to sit in the summer. The atmosphere is good and the service too. The food served is satisfactory to the customer's taste.“

“The place has gone down hill,the waiter look like a homeless person!!! I will never go back and the food was trouble“

“OMG THE MEATLOAF WITH MASHED POTATO'S AND GRAVY WITH BREAD AND BUTTER TO DIP IN THE GRAVY. 😋. AND THE FISH CRISPY FRIED FISH WITH MACARONI AND CHEESE. 😋 😋 😋“

“We were in the area and stopped for a late lunch at the Park Wood Diner. I felt like a burger and ordered the blue burger supreme. Was not impressed as the burger was well done and not by order of medium. The burger itself was not seasoned so a bit disappointing. Decided to have dessert and ordered a slice of plain cheesecake and it was delicious. I would recommend it highly. My wife ordered the chocolate cream pie which was also delicious.“

“Growing up in Staten Island, I spent a lot of my highschool and college years here with friends always getting food .. since moving to the city I haven’t had a chance to go but I’m
Making a visit again very soon to catch up with old friends ..“

“Haven’t had a bad meal yet!“

“Fast and courteous service. Delicious food and fairly priced.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had such a great time at Manny’s Diner! We came with a group of friends for trivia night and it was so much fun — the energy was awesome and we laughed the whole time. The food and atmosphere were great, and Maria, the manager, was so friendly and welcoming. Definitely recommend for a fun night out with friends!“

“Food was good, we had a mix of lunch items and breakfast. Service was outstanding! There were some regulars that came in and out and they treated them all like family. So kind. And we felt just as taken care of (they just didn't know our names or favorite items). They were also very fast getting the food out. Great stop if you're in the area!“

“The food is amazing my family and I love it“

“Ate there yesterday mid-afternoon. Good and service was superior. Attention to detail about our order, pleasant helpful staff and courteous host made our visit even more enjoyable. We were stuffed from our meal, but had to try their tempting desserts. Delicious. Highly recommend this long standing establishment.“

“Today I had a Mediterranean Wrap... ooo it was so good! Eggs with black olives, feta & tomatoes. The waiter is always coming around with coffee & tea refills & the waitress we had was super friendly! Delicious wrap, piping hot and over-stuffed!“

“Great food, atmosphere, and service. There are very few Diners in NJ that serve food with such a care and such quality and flavor that other places compromise, not here. Food , and coffee was superb. 100 % recommended. From Clifton to Summit for Tick Tock route 3 is no longer the best in my area. I love Diners so I needed to try this one even if it meant taking the ride to visit a small town vibe. A must visit my followers.“

“I think it's fair to say Woodrow Diner is among the top 5 on Staten Island. Omelets are good, pancakes are decent. Coffee is on par. Good service and have never had a long wait for a table. Not one of my favorite Staten Island parking lots.“

“My children and I were on a stop over in New Jersey recently, making our way back from a holiday in South Africa, when we needed breakfast as we tried to adjust to the time change. Central Restaurant was a little bit of a drive from our airport hotel (about 5 miles), but they were open at 6:00 am and the online menu showed promise. The restaurant is a neighborhood greasy spoon, with all the cast of characters you would expect of such a place. The owners are Greek transplants, the clientele is mostly the black neighbors who live nearby, a line up of police officers and construction workers waiting for to-go orders, and travelers like us who may or may not know what they are in for. I saw grits on the menu which told me everything I needed to know about this place. They did not disappoint. First thing - to the restroom. If it’s clean you know the kitchen will be in order also. It was tiny, but clean and smelled good. My son ordered the Denver omelet with grits, I ordered fish and grits, and my daughter ordered the French toast breakfast with a side of grits. The grits were on point - creamy with that pat of butter pooling on the top. The French toast was just the right amount of crunchy (on the edges) and tender with a tiny bit more cinnamon for enhanced flavor. The Denver omelet was well cooked with just a bit of browning on top, but a tender and medium soft interior. The fish was unexpected as it had a coating and it was fried. But, the exterior was crunchy with a flaky tender flesh interior. I can’t speak to the rest of the menu, but our orders were all A-plus calibre for a neighborhood greasy spoon. If you like this kind of atmosphere and breakfast food, don’t miss out if you happen to be in town!“

“I hesitated to come here because I saw negative reviews somewhere about the food, but I’m happy that I did because it was delicious. The people were really nice, the food was great (huge portions), and it was clean. I will absolutely come here again and again.

Parking: Easy to get into and plenty of parking“

“La mejor y deliciosa panaderia Ecuatoriana en Newark New Jersey.“

“Good atmosphere… great service and prices are just where I need them..LOL“

“food was delicious 😋 will come back again“

“Food was great! Service was slow, our table wasn't greeted and we had to flag the guy down to order. Not the waiters fault, I felt bad for him. They should hire a couple more waitstaff or schedule more waitstaff, one waiter and a busboy were taking care of the whole diner, like 12 tables. Especially during lunchtime when you know it's going to be busy.“

“picked up a toogoodtogo order. price of the items were originally$18 , discounted to $6. items were a pork roll, egg and cheese sandwich, a bag of chips and a soda. if that is regularly $18, then their food is WAY over priced. I'm also about 20-25 minutes away. definitely wasn't worth my time or the distance traveled. I will not be reordering the discounted food. and if that is their regular price, then they are way overpriced so I will not go for regularly priced food.“

“Cheff on front open grill Jose is such a blessing. He is an exampleof results of gratitude and the typical Guadalajara out of this world Goof fellow. I learn a new rithem while watching him prepare my meal with absolute care and Love for what he is doing. To be in Restaurnt busines take the skill of serve hem all and love them all. He is not only a Virgin Mary admiror but ËL SI TIENE MADRE PARA TRABAJAR Y SUSTETAR SUS BENDICIONES¨ In god we trust as well as in skill workers like him. Benedictum Dominus!“

“Our waitress was very attentive and friendly. The food was great! The price was very reasonable.“

“very clean, fast and friendly service. Definitely recommend breakfast. gotta try dinner next lol. enjoy!“

“Great Food and great service, Sue and Mariolla are the best. My co-worker and I go there at least once a week whether in person or ordering online Sue makes it happen. Sue knows all of our orders and she takes care of us making sure I food comes out perfect and hot. Sue is kind, helpful and friendly so we love coming there to see her and the food.“
