Garden State Diner Reviews
The EWR Garden State Dinner manager is an arrogant and very officious person who provokes terrible sentiments from me and my husband. The staff stated to order on line and we explained we wanted to sit down. They ssid take your items to the restaurant. The manager confronted us for sittinfg down at a table ( the restaurant was emtpy) and insulted my husband and then said he would have the TSA throw us (we’re in our seventies) out if the airport!!!! Crazy terrible management....read full review
Great service by Miranda our waitress. Tasty food and cleanliness of a high standard.
We were served by Miranda and her service was excellent and with a smile. The menu has lots of choices as you would expect in an American diner and the food was delicious.

The Garden State Diner, located in an airport, offers a diverse menu with breakfast available all day and pre-made breakfast buns. Customers have praised the quality of the coffee, and the prices are comparable to those of roadside diners, described as "normal" rather than "airport normal." While the diner can become busy, the staff manages to maintain prompt service and keep up with the crowd. The seating is close together, and the "bottomless" coffee may only be served in a single cup.
Customers have noted the pleasant and attentive service, with one guest enjoying the delicious patty melt, although the fries were not very fresh. Another reviewer remarked on the friendly service and diner atmosphere, but pointed out the lack of charging stations. Despite some disappointments, such as an Impossible Burger that turned out to be a vegetarian patty made of corn and peas, and undercooked and oily sweet potato fries, the diner has received praise for dishes like the omelette, eggs, and pancakes, particularly the fresh fruit salad. While the pork sausages could be improved, the diner is considered a decent option for travelers looking for a sit-down meal before their flight, standing out as a good choice within the terminal.
