“I love this place to enjoy a good brunch and a French press coffee.
This place is usually busy; I suggest registering for the online waiting list. (Waiting time: 20-30 min approx.) The service is fast, the place is very warm, clean and the dishes are very well presented.“

“The question is, was this place good enough for me to be a repeat customer? And the answer is an astounding YES!! For me this place is a vibe, though it's small in size. It's big in ambiance. Each person I encountered was as pleasant as the next. We shared the Philly cheesesteak egg rolls. Delicious is all I can say. Also the cheese burger and the French toast sandwich is also a must try. This place is a definitely a place to go??

Parking: The lot is rather small. It seems that on street parking is available.“

“I love coming here! There's a little hidden room in the back with seating... The staff are friendly and helpful. The food is DELICIOUS!!! Sometimes I just stop in for a chai and a croissant... Sometimes I sit and have a meal.. either way, Minias never disappoints!! OMG try their banana oatmeal!!!!!!!!!“

“What a charming breakfast and lunch (and hey, even early dinner) spot! I had the Jackie Special on a multigrain roll, and a latte. Fantastic. It’s clean, it’s bright, it’s warm and stylish. It’s an elevated experience for when you want something a little better than a greasy spoon diner (not that there’s anything wrong with the latter!)“

“Excellent.. Axel, Arelean Nicole all the waiters, waitresses, cooks, incredible staff.. it's like Cheers.. great friendly place great food.. great way to start the day.“

“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.!!!“

“George's was amazing to work with. They were more than willing to help me plan a nice breakfast spread for my students...complete with full platters of scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, pancakes, hash browns, fruit... They were kind enough to help me pack my car as well. I would HIGHLY recommend them! 👌 👍“

“This is a great little café/diner right next to the Westfield train station. We are fairly new to Westfield and went there for the first time a couple of weeks ago. We were wowed by the wonderful customer service of our waitress, Cindy. She was very attentive, provided great order suggestions and also brought over their delicious housemade hot sauce to go along with our eggs. All the food we ordered was wonderful, including the short stack of chocolate chip pancakes, the egg and cheese sandwich on a hard roll, and the Florentine omelette. The chef (maybe owner?), Ash even stopped by later on towards the end of our meal to check on how everything was. We meant to write this review right after that, but then never got around to it and when we went back today a few weeks later, we realized how much we needed to write this up! This time Kirsten and Cindy both helped us out, and Cindy remembered us by our orders from the last time even though we had only been here one time- very impressive and shows a great attention to detail and customer service. Ash came by also, and it was clear he remembered us as well. The food was fresh and tasty yet again (we got the French toast, egg and cheese sandwich, and Greek omelette this time) and the prices are great. This place is a gem and is definitely becoming one of our go-to spots!“

“Delicious fresh food.. ingredients were fresh and it was cooked perfectly.. nothing was oily or greasy or over salted.. I was delightfully surprised at how healthy yet delicious everything was.. great selection.. the food and juices and even the iced coffee were perfect.. do not go if you are in a hurry good food takes time..“

“Best Breakfast in the southward. Ask for the Yummy bowl (grits/cheese & beef sausage).Also please tip the cashiers, they are always pleasant.

Wheelchair accessibility: You can roll right in the front door & place your order.“

“I love their food and love how they strive to make a better world for special needs individuals!“

Nunca cambien“

“My go-to sandwich spot! Delicious! Inexpensive! My son is also completely addicted to the grilled cheese sandwiches they make, we go every Saturday for lunch. I love that everything is clean and sanitary, not every deli knows how to make a good “Bodega sandwich” but this spot NAILS it.“

“Everything was delicious I love this place“

“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“

“Best taylor ham egg & cheese in NJ!!!!!“

“I’ve been eating here for almost 10 years. The food is OUT OF THIS WORLD. People use the word butter milk pancakes loosely. Theirs really taste like butter milk. Everything is good. Same chef for years. My only complaint is, They never open on time, they’ve actually been closed for a while with no notice. Shame because me and my girlfriend are from out of town and waited outside for almost 2 hours. If they correct punctuality, I would give it five out of five stars because the food is phenomenal.“

“Food is fantastic! We get takeout dinner once weekly! Started during pandemic and it’s now our routine. Great, helpful staff and owner almost always present. Love lunch and breakfast here too and also the fresh bottled salad dressings. Can’t miss with Marigolds.

Vegetarian options: Grain salads. Veggie soup.“

“Loved the atmosphere and food! Dani was spot on. Had a wonderful time with my family. Exactly what I needed!!!💜💜Time with my awesome family!!“

“They have the best cheese grits around! I've had omletes, beef sausage, home fries and lunch sandwiches. I have never been disappointed by any item on the menu. I recommend calling ahead to pick up your order. Sometimes there can be a long wait but it is definitely worth it.“

“This week Pimientos de Padrón Chipirones Vieiras Berberechos Ameixas Cada producto above and beyond. Highly recommended.“

“Es una excelente comida ecuatoriana recomiendo que vayan al lugar doy la calificación de 10 muy buena👍“

“If you’re looking for a deli to get the best quality and most consistent food, look no further. I would put this deli up against any deli in the area, and I’ve tried them all. I’m very specific with modifications on my egg sandwiches, and they make it perfect every time. These ladies are just so amazing! 🥰“

“Best Onion Rings ever! Friendly service and a great place to dine.“

“The food was great! I had the chicken salad and it was super fresh and priced well. Our server was also adorable and dependable. I was having lunch with a friend of mine of 40 years. We are big on noise level… it was a prefect place for a conversation.“

“A very wonderful person, seller and cook. The food was not expensive but big and very well prepared. And most importantly, the attitude towards me was at a high level and the food was served with a sincere smile, which is now a rarity. I recommend to everyone“

“My family and I have been coming to this bagel shop it's it opened up. They've been consistent with hospitality, cleanliness and extremely reasonable with pricing across the board. The most important thing that this bagel shop has that no other shop does is that it's an open concept, you see everything done in front of you from the rolling of the bagels, the baking to the food being cooked. All other breakfast food establishments I've been too divide the front and the back so you don't necessarily see what's going on. Having worked with the clifton health department in the past, let's just say there is a reason as to why we prefer ordering from here. Thank you for taking care of my entire family for 15+ years.“
