“unbelievable this was our 1st time at Ray's! The atmosphere, service, menu and food all outstanding! We'll be back over and over.“

“If you are downtown and don't know where to eat, this is the right place. Great variety, it's not a cart and the service is very good. It's the second time I've been here and I liked it both times. The place is nice and quiet“

“The breakfast menu is just perfect with something for everyone. I preferred the pancakes with eggs, bacon and sausage. Those pancakes were so tender and I used lots of butter on them. Yummy!“

“Great burgers, great prices! Our new “go to” diner!“

“Wait staff was friendly and you were not pushed to finish dinner. We had the shrimp po' boy and the grilled ribeye open face steak sandwich. I asked for my French fries to be extra crispy and they were delicious. After driving for almost 5 hours, sitting in rush hour traffic and construction, this diner made our day and on a really great note.“

“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.“

“This place makes a great breakfast. Coffee was good and fresh. Friendly staff. Looking forward to trying lunch.“

“Found Legends because we were coming from out of state to Jets game and taking local train to stadium from Secaucus. Very friendly staff and terrific home fries!“

“Nice atmosphere and everything tasted wonderful. The only thing that would make this place better would be mimosas!“

“Edit: It seems there was a misunderstanding with the tips. Owner Lefteris was very meticulous in clearing things up and have promptly refunded us. We really appreciate this, so definitely giving this place a full 5 stars.

We really LOVED the food, it was our first trip to Jersey City and our first time trying American diner food and this place was a great start to the trip. Really liked the corned beef and hash, goes perfectly well with some hotsauce, and washed down with a cup of freshly squeezed orange juice. Will definitely be back if we are in the area!“

“Great place for dinner and drinks“

“Very kind customer service fast service family friendly environment ‼️“

“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.!!!“

“Looking for a place to eat some Spanish food in the area, we gladly end up here. Service from the only waitress that night was exceptional and very professional. The place is big and I believe because it was late at night was almost empty, I.saw a lots of take out orders do. Now here you will find the typical freezers/coolers with all kinds of colombian sodas, desserts and what not. They do have a good variety in the bakery section. And the food was surprisingly good with a good flavor and presentation. Prices were reason too. Overall if we ever come back to this area we will be paying a visit to this place again“

“great service cozy little dinner vibe amazing food much love from Portland Oregon“

“Ok, Grant Plater u fukn idiot it's obvious u don't get out to eat much... So d*** f*** any diner in the fun word u go to u get a waffle that can be cut into 4 sections. As far as chicken n Waffles d*** fuk unless u specify fried chicken and waffles, u will get tenders as for the gravy stupid for ur chicken, ur supposed to use syrup with this plate. If you did get fried chicken the cost would go up, duhh let me guess u would b**** about that to. Unless u no how a dish is served u should not complain because u sound like a fukn d*** a** who doesn't have a clue about dining out.. you wud be the type to go to a classy astablishment and say wats all the forks and spoons for by one plate.. ask before u comment and make a a** out of urself“

“Wow a 5 star diner.Amazing food and great service.My favorite diner in NJ.“

“This diner is worth going. We do not live in NJ but we stop in on the way back from NYC. The food is delicious, the service is spot on. The owners are very welcoming. Keep it going Caldwell Diner!“

“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 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.“

“I love having lunch here. My favorite is the Lomo sandwich. The meat is juicy and tender. It's so delicious 😋 the food is always fresh, cooked in plain sight so you get to see how clean and efficient the cooks are. The owner is super sweet and accommodating. I recommend this place.“

“Great food, fast service. Been coming here for years. Don’t mind the 80’s music but they have it CRANKED. Came in for breakfast and couldn’t even have a conversation with my wife as Journey played in the background.“

“Visiting the area, and decided to pop in for a late dinner, was great service and food and that good went back for dinner the next again day 🤩 great place for dining if your in the area“

“We used to go to Park West quite often, but stopped when we were tired of having to check the bill carefully for overcharging. Happened again yesterday when we called in a pick up and 2 of the 3 items ordered were wrong and the wrong higher price was still charged. And, we didn't get two items we ordered, nor the coleslaw and pickle that was requested. Not happy at all“

“Everything is great! I especially like the wraps and Panini‘s!“

“I am so happy to have a place like this in my area. Small, friendly, comfortable and welcoming and the food is great. Proud to say I am a regular.“

“good food. good prices. good staff. all around good time“

“My fiance and I went here for the first time this past weekend and loved it! We loved the oldies style vibe, decor and music. The food was very good, decently priced, and our waitress, Denise, was awesome! We will definitely be back!“

“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.“

“Great Spinach pie and quality baked goods, Have become a regular customer as well.“

“Food was very good, portions and pricing are also great!
The atmosphere is also interesting and nice!
Unfortunately, they forgot the salad that was supposed to come with the chicken sandwich I had gotten. I just got 3 bags of balsamic vinaigrette dressing and no salad.“

“If it were up to my children, we would be eating at the Hillary Street restaurant and Grill every single day. We love it here, and the staff is the kindest and friendly as ever. The food is always absolutely delicious. Five stars from us.“

“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 😌“

“First time every going here and we had a great experience. We only stopped for desert after our event at medieval times. Not sure what you will experience, but or waiter (Jil perhaps) was fantastic! Not only will we stop next time we are in the area, we will all for him.“

“We always Enjoy our meals at the diner! They never disappoint no matter what we order. Don’t forget to try their cheesecake!! It’s soooooo yummy!“

“Food in this place is amazingly delicious!“

“Always fresh coffee and good food. Check out: NYCRhythm.com. Advertise on Internet Radio. Karpathos will hear your commercials too.“

“Went for lunch on 1/28. Ordered the turkey BLT and the new grilled chicken, bacon avocado sandwich with ranch and bbq sauce. Both were very good and as expected.
The shortfall was the Matzo ball soup. Came out with literally no flavor. The broth was like something out of a can (I’ve had better canned broth) and bright yellow. Nothing to add extra flavor, I guess gone are the days when it had celery, carrot and onion included, at least here.“

“Jersey City's finest! best sliders anywhere! Classic!“

“Food is always great and on time“

“Didn't think they still made places like this. Delicious breakfast food, reasonable prices. Open at 6am or maybe earlier. Unbelievably nice service. Many people who came in were regulars and the manager knew their names and orders, but she was extra sweet to me, too, a stranger. Real maple syrup. I wish I had this in my neighborhood.“

“Everything tasted amazing!!!!! the crab rangoons are so delicious and perfectly flavored, it is a treat every time i order them for an amazing price too!!! the sesame chicken had a great flavor and is not too sweet, the general tso chicken is perfectly spicy and tender. there are no little crumbly pieces as i would usually get at most take out!! the coke cans (diet) were nice and cold, and the veggie low mein noodles were perfectly dry and flavorful and HOMEMADE? (although the lettuce is weird sorry). the dumplings in chili oil taste super authentic and have a greattttt flavor. i loved everything here and i would order 10000 percent again. never change !! (besides the lettuce)

Vegetarian options: all the tofu options are sooo delicious!! super crispy and delicate.“
