    Al Mac's Diner is a diner. A diner is not a gourmet place with nice furniture, nor is it a refined atmosphere. A diner is a simple place that is timeless. Al Mac's is simple and timeless... Nothing too interesting or trending on the menu. No pancakes decorated with clown faces or colored sprinkles. No low-fat keto crap either. No poke bowls, etc. Very basic stuff here. Moey's sammie was wicked greasy and yummy. My Chix and Waffs were OK but were Tenders (not bone-in) and had White Gravy. Waffs were very soft and well-made and were the star. The dish was quite teenie however and I could have easily eaten two orders. Let's just say, they have coffee and they have eggs n' things. It's food. The establishment is appropriately janky, i.e., beat up and old. Friendly enough service. Food is diner quality... Recommended if you want to dine in a diner... It's legit... My review is as basic as Al Mac's Diner... Kiss my grits!

    We originally were looking for another restaurant but when the parking issue prevented that, out popped this diner. I've been in those glossy chrome and plastic diners in NJ. Gaudy. Al Mac's diner is a no frills throw back to the thirties and forties. What's outstanding is the food. We sat on leather green and white retro chairs at a black topped table. We were greeted with a smile by Cheyenne. I asked her to guess what we wanted from the dinner menu and she knew we wanted the meat loaf. Just wonderful. It's served with lumpy mashed potatoes, two large cuts of meat loaf and a bowl of brown gravy. This is basic food done right. The coffee was unlimited. I knew there was a secret ingredient in the food which I will now incorporate in my version. In a few weeks we're going for breakfast. We're looking forward to their versions of pancaked and French toast. Had I room after this meal, I would have had the bread pudding. It's a warm memory. This is a good place to go for well prepared food. Oh, the bathroom was clean but like the rest of this historic diner, it's basic.

    Portuguese sweetbread French toast

    The eggs were cooking perfectly and were very fresh. The yolks were almost a dark orange when I broke them. Some of the best over easy eggs I have had . The Portuguese sweetbread was huge and thick and tasted marvelous, would definitely come back just for this !!!! The only thing that I did not like was the home fries. Even my fiancé who never heard of things called spices thought these home fries were bland. They were also very soft and mushy. The customer service was outstanding!!!!!!

    Diner

    Great old time diner tahr takes me back a few decades. Super friendly service and very reasonable prices. Full assortment of breakfast and lunch options with a slight Portuguese flair. The your choices omelet (including a very good caciola) is a heck of a value at 10.99. No frills, just good and plentiful. Cannot go wrong!

    Home fries, sausage, eggs over easy, toast and pancakes. :)

    See all

    Classic diner breakfast, our server was very attentive to our needs. Exactly what I expected, in a good way. Good corned beef hash!

It was a cute little place too). Anyway, after a few months break, we went back in late this morning. We received an "old friend" kind of greeting from Judy, a longtime server. This is a family owned & run establishment..I think I heard her say to another guest she had been serving tables there 40yrs?! ( she only looks 35)? Don't believe that 40 yr fact?? Lol. The menu format has a new look. Easier to read but I think most of them old favorites were on the new menu with some exciting new additions. One od the new additions jumped off the page at me & I had to have it. " The Elvis". Im not a crazed Elvis lover except for this plate. It is not a keto friendly or diabetics friend. 2 slices of sweetbread covered in peanut butter & bananas with whipped cream & a couple of slices of bacon. Bring your cardiologist with you to breakfast & he can have his poached egg and berry bowl waiting for you to need his medical assistance. If you don't make it out alive, you can say Elvis left a smile on your face for your last meal. It's so good, you'll remember it for a while. Can you say that about your last rice cake? Staff is always happy in the diningroom. Bakery counter staff is hit or miss as far as happiness factor. They really have improved the bakery counter offerings. Eye candy to get you taste buds going.

The restaurant is very clean. I've met the owner twice as he tries to get around the diningroom before you leave to make sure your experience was a good one & personally thank you. I feel that in itself makes a big difference in quality control & guaranteeing he is hearing his customers & perhaps can make changes before it becomes a business-changing problem. (Sometimes a few bad reviews spread like wildfire & changing rumors back to the truth can hurt the bottom line). There is a delightful waitress you'll be glad to have serve you if you are lucky enough to be seated at her table. "Grandma (name)?" is a very happy way to start your day. She knows the menu well & can make you smile on your worse days. The menu has plenty to choose from & the portions sizes..epic! Eggs Benedict is 3 egg size. Pancakes & French toast orders are enough for today & tomorrow without adding eggs or meat. But their prices are similar to other places lessor size plates. There is an ramp at the entrance for those with mobility issues. There are a couple of handicap spots too. I do not know if the restrooms are wheelchair friendly as I didn't check it out yet. Even on a packed Sunday morning, the kitchen was quick moving the food out.. the waitress was right on top of refills too. Definitely worth stopping in & giving it a try but bring your appetite. Eating like a bird, I think, is frowned upon.

    1st time going here…read more Cinnamon bun latte- delicious- very good even had microfoam. Was not expecting this at all for a restaurant latte. Coffee- delicious. Fresh squeezed oj- amazing. I ordered the small which was a generous size for the price! Steak bomb omelette- the steak was beautifully seasoned and the mushrooms may have been portobello they had a nice chew/bite to them. Had cheese in it but not overdone on the cheese. My husband had biscuits and gravy. He's a tough critic on this dish and he said this one is at the top of the list compared to ones he's had at other restaurants. It came with eggs and homefries on the side. The marble rye he ordered on the side ,it was nice and thick and had a really nice chew to it. The service was wonderful. From the hostess to the server and the owners. It's evident that the owners care about the patrons experience as they stopped by to ask about our experience) Very calming and warm atmosphere. This breakfast spot appeals to all generations as we saw people of all ages eating here. They have something for everyone. Definitely recommending this place to family and friends. Can't wait to go back to try their lunch menu.
