“The food was good, I ordered just a waffle and bacon recently, but unfortunately, the TV was tuned to Newsmax and I was told "it couldn't be changed". Now that I know the extreme political views of those in charge, I won't be spending any more of my money there. Nor will I recommend the Lakeside Diner any more. Too bad, it used to be such a nice place.“
“Wanted to try a different diner in the area. I got the grilled chicken sandwich and it was awesome the staff is very nice. My 3 teenage girls are very picky and they enjoyed all their choices. I asked my daughters would they consider going back and they all emphatically said yes !!! My daughters really liked the Easter decorations!!! I highly recommend !!!“
“Always a good experience here the hosts always Greet you with a positive attitude and the service is always top notch. Prices are also very fair.Parking: Fair amount of parking entrance and exit are also easy to navigateKid-friendliness: Kid friendly food options and chairs“
“After a long overnight shift at the hospital I stopped in the nearest breakfast spot on google. I like to support small owned businesses because usually you receive good quality service and that’s what I encountered when coming in this morning. I had the bacon egg and cheese on a roll and a coffee. The sandwich was delicious, and the coffee was just that. Coffee. If you’re in a rush first thing in the morning be sure to give yourself time because they take they’re time to prep the food but in a good way overall I was satisfied and will be back again.“
“First and foremost, before I even discuss the food I want to address the fact that all of the staff at the diner today seemed genuinely happy to be there. Having worked in food service, that’s generally unheard of. Big props to the owner/ management for creating an environment like that.Now the food: I’m gluten intolerant. I couldn’t contain my smile when I saw the extensive gluten free options and heard of the lengths the kitchen goes to ensure allergy safety. I can’t remember the last time I have had so many wonderful options and could order something so easily. I got the chicken fingers and they were wonderful.Lastly: Safe is a fantastic server and very clearly cares a lot about the diner patrons. Every table that gets him as their server is just as lucky to have him as the diner is.Thank you for a great dinner ? I will be back OFTEN“
“The place is magical! The waiters and waitresses are all friendly and they get it right. Our grandkids love Teddy , he spoils them terribly. We walk in the door and there is my grandsons favorite treat right in front of him. The food is always delicious, breakfast, lunch or dinner. We are super fans of the “
“The food was also really good but oh my god wait until you try the coffee!! I got an iced espresso without sugar or milk and it was so good! I’ve had many of their other drinks and smoothies as well! They just knock it out of the park with their food, their smoothies, their juices, and the coffee.“
“Last night, my party and I had an extraordinary dining experience at Oakland Diner. The food was absolutely fantastic, and our waitress, Nicole, truly elevated our evening with her exceptional service. Not only was she incredibly sweet, but she also demonstrated unparalleled attentiveness throughout our meal. From promptly fulfilling our requests for extra napkins to ensuring our glasses were never empty, Nicole went above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction. Thanks to her warm demeanor and impeccable service, our dinner was nothing short of amazing. We are already looking forward to returning, knowing that Nicole will make our next visit just as memorable. She is undoubtedly an asset to the team and deserves all the praise!!“
“Need a quick cup of coffee or their famous "Tower" breakfast sandwich then head to Abbie's. This small restaurant has 4 tables and about 6 bar stools. They have great pancakes and a good cup of coffee. Many locals go here for their morning caffeine hit and local news. People call in their orders and run in and pick up. It's a "guy" kind of place and many local landscapers, and tradesmen are getting a great breakfast sandwich and coffee on the run for a very reasonable price. I wouldn't recommend it if you're going with your girlfriends though.“
“I did not know it was a landmark unless I met some old folks. The Spa has been offering comforting home-cooked meals to its customers for “over 55 years” but not sure why, it is not as popular as it deserves.With its welcoming, homey atmosphere and retro vibe The Spa has always been a well-known gathering spot for locals. The Spa is in the center of a small strip mall right off North Beverwyck Road.We came here for brunch, and 80% of their customer base is above 50 Years...We ordered-grilled and chicken omelet - a perfect blend of omelet and chicken.French Toast and pancake comboThe food was great with local flavor. The owner makes you feel welcome and they are cute :)Ample seating booths, parking, restrooms - everything is there.“
“Amazing food, great customer service and very clean restaurant. I get food here at least once a week and have never had any problems. If you miss Libbys Lunch on McBride Ave, this is the place for you. The owner was the head cook at Libbys for many years so its just as good if not better, especially since its Halal!“
“The food was top notch! Best onion rings, phenomenal!! Best batter around. The burger was a generous size, done to perfection and on a fresh, soft Kaiser roll. Tara, our server was very attentive and she was such a great worker. It has a local feel and even had an outlet along with built in usb charging ports.“
“Jimmy and Bernice work the wee hours of the morning to make everything fresh every day. From the Friday corn beef hash for breakfast ( sells out early) to the best fresh burgers. Homemade soups. While I worked in the area I ate lunch there every day for about 40 years. Miss eating there they made you feel like family.“
“I haven't been to all the diners in Wayne as I'm still relatively new to town (2.5 years at this point) but of the diners I've been to this is my favorite.First off, the food is above average. It isn't fancy and I'm sure if you dive into the more esoteric regions of the menu the quality might get spotty but for a sandwich and fries they come out pretty well.I also like the vibes. The place is packed with locals and there are some gimmicks for days of the week. Monday is kids eat free and there was a comedy night scheduled...at some point. I was told it's easy to avoid if you like and easy to engage if you like. I hope to check it out soon.Kid-friendliness: Super kid friend. Special kid days too. If you don't like a carnival I might stay away though.“
“We visited The West Essex Diner on a bustling Sunday morning, arriving around noon. Despite the crowd, we were seated within a brief 10-minute wait, which was understandable given the rush. However, the dining experience left much to be desired. I ordered a classic breakfast featuring sunny-side-up eggs with a side of steak and home fries, accompanied by toast and coffee. My friend opted for a western omelet paired with French toast. Disappointingly, the French toast lacked powdered sugar, and despite requesting jelly, our waiter seemed to disappear.The food, unfortunately, was rather lackluster, lacking any distinctive flavor or appeal. While the service was initially prompt, our waiter was notably absent after serving our meals, only reappearing when we requested the check. It was then that he offered more coffee, but by that point, I was already ready to leave. Overall, the experience felt ordinary, and the food failed to surpass what I could have easily prepared at home with more flavor.“
“My first time going during mid-November -- I stopped by around noon, and the place was pretty crowded, but still lots of available seating! I ordered the eggs Benedict -- the avocado option, which was a healthier alternative than the regular one with muffin. -- it had so much delicious hollandaise sauce. My partner ordered the Hillery Street house special from the breakfast platter menu, which has two large pancakes, eggs, and bacon strips. We also ordered (not pictured) hot chocolate with whipped cream and regular coffee with milk--- the milk is served in this cute sealed small glass container. Overall, it is a family-friendly place with great service and tasty brunch options with sizeable portions. We definitely see ourselves returning to try more of their breakfast menu. Ps: Nicely decorated with an autumn theme not just outside the entrance but all over the restaurant.“
“Located at an intersection between Goffle Road and Wagaraw Road, forming a triangle, my partner and I had lunch at the Hawthorne Diner as first-timers. Upon entering, the interior was small and simple, but it had plenty of booths as well as a bar and was clean. There were a few tables in the back where we sat promptly. Their menu had everything one wanted or needed at a typical Jersey diner. There were plenty of breakfast choices, as well as wraps, sandwiches, and dinner options. We decided on something light and went for the broccoli cheddar potato skins and 1/2 tuna fish sandwich combo with salad. Good food is served in a timely fashion and at a decent price. Our server was friendly and attentive. We can recommend this place.“
“WOWW! What an experience... I went on Thursday afternoon and it was starting to pick up early dinner. I was pretty hungry so I ordered an Eggs Benedict and an order of pancakes. The eggs Benedict was one of the best I have had in a long time. The English muffin was toasted to perfection. The pancakes were the best pancakes I have had hands down, they were so fluffy and loaded with strawberries. They DO NOT skimp on portions here. I was so content with my meal that I got a slice of Canoli Cheesecake to go that sent me into a deep food coma. The service was incredible as it was my first time there. I will definitely return to this diner. The manager Mike gave me a great table and was super friendly, great guy. My server Astrid was very attentive and helped guide me through the options on the extensive menu. I recommend everyone come here if you are looking for an AWESOME diner!!!!!!!“
“Very nice place, people here are so nice. Food was delicious. Lots of included stuff with the meal. I might got ice cream with chocolate cake which was delicious and I got roast chicken for dinner, which was very good value of for all the food which was unbelievable value and the waiter is very kind.Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly with many options“
“The Park West Diner had excellent food and a very reasonable and the waitress that wait on me her name was Sonia she was very pleasant and she offered if I wanted any more coffee and I said yes she's very nice and it was very pleasant and the place was very “
“Very delicious, I have never scarfed food down so fast as I did that day. Amazing from the French toast to the whip cream. This great dish was the napoleon french toast. Made with strawberries, bananas, walnuts and whipped cream. The best touch to the dish was for sure the whip cream.You get to sit anywhere you’d like. You get serviced pretty quickly after seating yourself. QR code menu. Pay at the counter. Free parking in the rear.Slowly working the way to knowing the area a bit more for family recommendations when they visit.Parking: Parking lot is the first right opening after passing the restaurant. You will see a sign. But of course metered parking also if you find any.“
