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.

I visited the Metuchen Diner with my dad on Thursday, March 27, and we both greatly enjoyed the experience. We were slightly worried about a lunch rush, going around noon (11:30 to be more precise), but the restaurant was spacious and not overly crowded. Parking is normally difficult with its small lot, but there is ample additional parking in the back, and on the day we visited we had no problem finding a spot. The service was great and very quick, only taking about 15 minutes...

It's a diner! Solid Jersey diner, better than most of the country but par for the course here -- menu is not 38 pages long so not 10,000% traditional but what they've got is great.
