I had the pleasure of having lunch at Mary’s Restaurant, and the best part of my experience was the incredible service provided by Yanerys. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm smile and made to feel truly welcome. Their attention to detail, kindness, and professionalism were beyond impressive.

Well OMG 5 stars.
It was the best pastrami I’ve ever had
It was sliced so so thin and yet it was so thick on the toasted rye bread
The best I was said when I was done but yet so satisfied!!!“

They were kind enough to help me pack my car as well. I would HIGHLY recommend them! 👌 👍“

“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.!!!“

“Really cute place with plenty of clean tables. Staff is nice and friendly and even brought my bagel over to me. A little expensive, I had an everything cheese egg and chorizo for $9. The chorizo is extra cost but very good, adds a nice zing and crisp to it. The everything bagel is also very flavorful. Best bagel I’ve had in Bayonne.“

“First time in NJ and I ordered delivery from this place to my hotel. The coffee was delicious, just like homemade, and they followed my instructions exactly on how I wanted it. The omelets were really good, and everything had a comforting, homemade taste. Highly recommended! Thank you, Kelly’s Breakfast.“

“I haven't eaten here in years but the Italian chicken sandwich I had about 17 years ago is worth a late review... It was the best chicken sandwich I've ever had. It was made with the juiciest chopped up center breast meat, I thought this spot closed years ago... I wonder if they still make that sandwich the same way they did back in the day?!!!!“

“Tasty lemon ricotta pancakes. Prepare to wait for your food. For some reason I waited about 20 minutes for my breakfast when otheres who ordered after me were served.

I always forget to ask about up-charges for substitutions. The server excitedly assured me I could but neglectsed to inform about the extra $3. it felt like trickery. She should have kept me informed. Did she want a bigger tip? Leaves a bad impression.“

“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.“

“Everything was delicious I love this place“

“Always a delicious home style breakfast - cooked however we ask… truly true best bacon around!! We adore Maryanne and Jack… James may steal the show tho!!“

“Very homey place, their onion rings are cooked to crispy perfection. I had the Roselle Cheeseburger; the patty was thin but dense, leaving room for the rest of the ingredients. It was delicious, not too greasy. Friendly service. Might make a habit of visiting this place for lunch more often.“

“during one of the most difficult times our family has faced, Merigolds showed us incredible compassion. They generously provided food for a dinner to honor our sister in laws memory. Everything they make is beautifully prepared healthy and made with lots of love. More than anything their kindness touched our hearts. We are beyond grateful and will always remember what they did for our family.“

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

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

“We loved eating there when we lived in Newark, so we stopped in for a breakfast sandwich. They forgot the cheese on the bacon, egg and cheese, but they were getting ready to close for Jumuah salat, so they were kind of busy. It still tasted good, especially on that whole wheat roll.
The friendly service makes up for the missing cheese mistake.
This establishment has great food and the brothers respect the community they serve. They hire locals, too, and I love to see that! The service is friendly, welcoming, and respectful. I appreciate a business that treats their customers well. After many years, they're still a great spot for halal eats with friendly service! Free Falastin!“

“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.“

“I've known Dino and his lovely wife Helen for more than 30+ years in the food industry. Excellence in every aspect of the restaurant business is par excellence and superb. Food is always top notch and employees are very friendly. This is the place. Thank you Dino and Helen for 30+ years of greatness.“

“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.“

“The day was always fresh and they gave you a lot of cream cheese on them. Nice people.“

“They are so good we love their bagels... I hope they reopen soon“

“Great employees always friendly. Delicious Bagels and omelets just to name a few.“
