My brunch at East Hanover Diner was good! The menu had so many options to choose from - it took me a while to pick what to get because everything looked great. I ended up getting the Jersey Garden Omelette with feta - it was okay. My friends all agreed that the food was good, but not incredible. Something I will say though is that the portions are extremely generous - everyone's meal was huge, and this is one of the biggest omelette's I've ever eaten. Also, all the meals are customizable. The place itself has such a cool ambience - it really feels like a true diner, with booths and old fashioned decor that also feels very comforting and relaxed. The service was good - our server was very friendly and made the experience better. Overall, a positive experience! read more

Pretty standard diner food. I had eggs, hashbrowns and sausage. Some of the items were a bit expensive like $14 for plain short stack of pancakes. We also had a turkey burger that was just fine. It's sort of exactly how you expect diner food to be. Service was pretty attentive and nice. read more

I have been going to the Diner since the Karsos Family took it over. years ago. Their food was superb! Recently, after the change in ownership, I ordered Fish & Chips. Instead of fresh fish breaded & fried, I got some kind of pre-formed commercial "fish patties". Tasted blah and were over cooked. Why would you change that quick if it wasn't to make a buck. Not going back! read more

I came here before a matinee at the nearby multiplex, sat at the counter and ordered a breakfast burrito for lunch. It seemed good on the menu, but the actual experience was far below my expectations. There were plenty of other great-sounding diner food options, so I partially blame myself for my choice here. (I bet the waffles or the club sandwich are excellent.) My server was attentive, and I appreciated that. The better-than-average diner ambiance was a good experience, and every employee I encountered was friendly. I'll be back, but probably not for a breakfast burrito! read more

Stop by after a show, what a great New Jersey diner. Ordered breakfast at midnight and they did not disappoint. We will stop by again.

Went to East Hanover Diner for breakfast and had a great experience. Our waitress, Amy, was absolutely wonderful, super sweet, friendly, and provided excellent service throughout. A few regulars walked in and greeted her by name. This place really has that classic neighborhood diner feel - regular customers, friendly staff, welcoming atmosphere, a very warm, local vibe. I ordered a cup of coffee and their breakfast special, which included two sunny side up eggs, home fries, and bacon. Everything was cooked perfectly and delicious. The breakfast special ends at 11am, so make sure to get there early if you want to take advantage of it. read more

East Hanover Diner - If you need me to tell you, gtfoh! - Diners Near Me - East Hanover, New Jersey

The food is "diner" good. No issues. The service depends on the wait staff. Just don't understand the new fee on the bill. Aside from price for cash or credit being different there is another service fee added. I don't get it. The prices have gone up and the portions smaller. Pay more for credit fine but now add another additional fee?? What for ? And also banks always charged businesses credit card fees. Why as prices are go higher do these businesses charge the fees to us and have never done so in the past? read more

Located off a busy Route 10 East, this establishment was conveniently close after running an errand today. Upon entering, there is no ambience or great decor, but the place was clean. My partner, my mom and I were first-timer here at the East Hanover Diner and was able to get a table right away after being greeted by the host. Similar to most Jersey diners, everything was under the sun, with a wide variety to choose from their 12-page menu. We settled for one of their weekend specials consisting of broiled salmon with fries, broccoli and chicken noodle soup; a beef gyro sandwich with fries; and a crispy chicken sandwich with fries and two onion rings. The food was well prepared and delicious. Our server was efficient and tried to smile (she wasn't a smiler). Reasonable prices, large portions, and took the salmon home for another meal. We can recommend this place. read more

We come here regularly and are never disappointed. We are always greeted with a warm welcome and never disappointed in the service (thank you Jeff) or menu selections. Prices are fair and the serving sizes are plentiful. I highly recommend this place. As I said we are frequent visitors and will continue to be. read more

Place has gone WAY downhill. Portions are small. Waitstaff is terrible. Warning. Check your bill. We were overcharged on a few occasions. Dinner specials come with soup or salad and cake of the day. They will charge you for soup or salad. Greasy food. Flavorless hash browns. The place is dirty. The booths are filled with crumbs. The floor is filthy and sticky. The owners also like to spew political rhetoric. Hey jerks you're there to feed me. Not espouse your political BS. No one wants to hear it. A former regular customer. I will never return. read more

Most of the food is ok but they need to get a water filtration system in there. The water is terrible, can't even drink it. The water so bad that I could even taste the chlorine in the mashed potatoes. Don't think I'll be going back anytime soon. read more

Came here to order lunch to start. We got sat down, and the waitress didn't come by for about 10 minutes. So thankfully, the gentleman who sat us asked if we wanted something to drink and said our waitress would be with us soon. Then we waited another 10 minutes, and the waitress finally came over and asked if we would like something to drink and then to eat. So we ordered a turkey dinner and a steak medium well. We waited for about 30 mins, and then finally we got our food. The turkey was cold, and the steak was medium rare. Even with all of this, though, the food was good minus the issues. read more

Since the karsos sold the Ehanover diner it has gone down! The food ia not good anymore the place looks bad service is bad, they have waitress's cursing and yelling at customers and they had a great hospitality person running the business to keep customers coming back and the new owner gets rid of her ! Shame on him! Time to move on to other places!!! read more

I'm writing to share some feedback regarding our recent visit to the East Hanover diner on May 18th. While we generally enjoy dining at I have to say this time to be less than satisfactory due to the behavior of some of the waitresses. Our server, Mylene, was very unpleasant. She came across as overly intrusive and disruptive during our meal. When we requested anything, she seemed very impatient. Towards the end of our meal there was quite a disruption between some servers where you could clearly hear their voices and see the altercation with language, which in my opinion is unacceptable in a workplace, while patrons are dining and trying to have a peaceful time. This looks very bad for your business read more

Whatever you do, don't go on a Monday, when we told our waitress that our food was cold, her response was "Mondays are hard here". I'm sorry but that isn't the response, just an "I'm sorry" that's it, not that Mondays are hard. The food came out 3/4 of our order the 4th part came out 15 minutes after the others. The place wasn't clean, there seems to be a lack of love and care, and they need to step it up. There are other diners around closer and delicious. read more

I order food and pick it up 2 times a week. I order Salmon dinner and piece of pie. One order they forgot my dessert and the next time I ordered they forgot my soup. I ordered on Wednesday cost was $29.59 I order the same exact meal on Saturday cost was $34.25 The price jumped nearly $5 yet menu price was the same and they forget soup or dessert and portions are smaller. I won't go there again. read more

Good food and prices were not bad. Do not live in the area. But will definitely go back when I go to our office in Livingston. Friendly service and nice little diner. read more

Unfortunately, this is the last time I'm ordering from Them for pick up. The last time I went to pick up my order I didn't see it ready so I waited. After a while I asked about the status and the woman said it's been picked up already. I said, "not by me?" And she describes a couple who took the order in detail. And I'm like okay...I don't know them, I don't have the food I paid for, so now what. She was unapologetic and seemed greatly annoyed, I'm sure it was to the person who took my order but I really didn't get much from Her and I had to follow up after a while and ask her "so am I getting a new order?" She said yes and I waited 15-20 mins. An inconvenience but it happens. This past weekend I ordered a western omelet, chicken and waffles, an extra side of home fries. I picked up, my order was there, I did look in the bag and checked that my omelet was there, the waffle was there, a separate container for the chicken, then there was a brown bag that was hefty enough to be home fries so I figured that's what it was. That was my mistake because when I got home, the bag was full of condiments and syrup. My review isn't because of the error, it's because of what happened next. I called the diner, explained I didn't get the extra home fries ordered at $5.29. I asked if they would just refund it on my card instead of me driving back. She says "oh, just tell us next time that we owe you home fries." Huh? How is that a realistic option? I asked if she could just refund me because that didn't work for me. She said to request it through where I ordered. I told her I ordered it from their website, not doordash, etc. She said to go on the website and request it. Ok. So I go on their website and see no option to request a refund. I emailed them. Of course, no response. read more

Discemt diner food. John salad was great. What stood up was the desert menu. The Baklava cheese cake was great and the Napoleon was fresh out if the oven. The service was good and prompt. Helpful guidance. The ambiance was pretty much that of a standard Diner one. read more

Immediately walking in it was apparent that if you're not friends with the staff(maybe manager or owner) you're not going to get the good service. Waited to be acknowledged. Waited to get a server to the table. Waited for drinks. Waited for food. The servers seem very unhappy. FYI TV is on with volume at breakfast time. Food was okay. Bathroom is clean. read more

The food here is always good and they're BYOB which is awesome. I always get a sandwich or wrap here but honestly if you want a bigger meal their specials are great. I went with family and we got a panini and two specials. The place is not fancy but the food is stellar. read more

This is a food lovers gem. It is a diner/restaraunt with authentic American food. I love the omelettes here and your ability to customize it to any taste. My New York born spouse loves the hard rolls and rice pudding. The food is served quickly but this is a place where all of the wait staff are workung hard to serve everyone. Patience in Northern NJ? The food is worth the wait. BIG omelettes, need I say more? read more

This place has quickly become my go to diner. The food is excellent, the prices are fair, and the service is always friendly. The owners are very proud of their restaurant and it shows. They always have a good variety of specials that come with both a soup or salad and a dessert. Many diners are becoming less generous with their specials. As for dessert, try the chocolate fudge cake. It's excellent. I highly recommend this place. read more

First time visit to the East Hanover Diner. I arrived early enough to order from the Early Bird Menu. Wide variety to choose from. I went with salad, chicken soup, and stuffed tilapia with rice pudding for dessert. All of the dishes were good. Service was a bit rushed. The soup and salad came out together instead of one at a time. Next, I was only half way through the salad when the tilapia came out. The waiter did not ask if I wanted to finish the salad, He just scooped it up. On the plus side, the portion of stuffed tilapia was so huge I took half home for lunch the next day. read more

Hey it's a Jersey Diner with nice friendly service and very good food. Breakfast plates and sandwiches are very good. Meatloaf is my favorite here. (I never met a meatloaf I didn't Love). Check out the daily lunch specials you'll be glad you did. Plenty of parking in the back lot right next door to Hanover Supply. The Diner is open daily 6am til 1am. Come and get your Munch on!! read more

When it comes to diner, I've been to better, but this place is close to home and was on our way home when we were done with bowling. This place is open late which was convenient. There's free parking lot in the back and there's a lot of seating. We got to sit in a booth and order. The staff at night seem like they want to go but it's understandable- it's quiet at night and not much to do. I ordered a Belgium waffle sundae while my dad got the omelet and my sister got a sandwich. Everything was decent and cheap just like any diners but overall after being to TOPS and Livingston diner, this place just doesn't compare to them. Anyways, don't mind coming back but if you're looking for a good brunch /breakfast or diner place to go, you can find it elsewhere! If you don't care, this is your place to go! read more

I don't know if it was the owner managing this Friday the 14th around 11 pm or whatever but I've never been treated so rudely at a restaurant in my life. The man working the counter and seating people was extremely impolite to myself, my friends, and other customers. First off, as I was eating my meal my friends and I noticed how he aggressively responded to a group of young kids after they asked to be seated somewhere else. He said in a harsh voice "Sit in your seats" and walked away. As we were going to pay we asked him to split the check and he told us we had to ask our waitress to do it. Fine... except for the fact that he once again said it in a snarky tone and proceeded to say it 3 more times also yelling after we had said okay multiple times. My friend turned to walk towards our waitress and he yelled in her ear "excuse me" because he was also trying to go the same way. He needs to learn how to treat his costumers if he wants us to return. The only reason this gets 2 stars is because the food was good and my waitress was sweet. read more
