So I wanted to do a 3 and 1/2 but Yelp won't let me be great. Service was great, place wasn't very full and we were sat immediately. Our service was patient and attentive. The portions were large and everything was tasty. The cheese bread that we got as a table was our favorite item and we got one to go. Other stand outs bean soup, gyro, and chicken piccata. The only issue was the price was high but alas this is the price these days. read more

Ewing Diner - Diners Near Me - Ewing, New Jersey

I live across the bridge in Yardley but my community told me the best diner in the area was across the bridge so off I went. They did not lie! I immediately liked the vibe. The owner in his suit greets you at the door. You walk in to a huge table of huge cookies and baked goods wrapped to go. You can not ignore the delicious looking and huge pies and cakes on display, The breakfast menu was huge! There were also some fantastic lunch specials. I had my mind set on breakfast but I caught a glimpse of someone else's crab cake and was swayed. $14.99 for a huge crab cake, a boat of Mac & cheese, stewed tomato's, a huge bowl of clam chowder and a dessert. The crab cake was so good. Fried to perfection. The Mac and cheese was super creamy. The portion was huge. This was 2-3 meals for me. I took my dessert to go. The waitress recommended the bread pudding and she was spot on. It was sweet and the vanilla cream was so delicious. When you leave the owner will cash you out. There is a 3% charge for credit cards. He has so many regulars and has a a great rapport with so many people. I told him I would be back and he laughed and said of course you will! read more

Classic Greek New Jersey diner with breakfast all day, great cakes and pastries and huge portions. They are also open 24/7 should you get the urge for 3AM disco fries. Everything here is good with one exception (french onion soup). Trust me, don't order it. Overall, the inside is spotless and the service is outgoing and friendly. read more

This is where I go to eat with my sister, because she loves diners. She has eaten at many diners in the State, and this is one of her local favorites in the Trenton area, the other one being The Golden Dawn in Hamilton. The service here is prompt and efficient, the food is decent and copious, and the value is very good. Many people leave with take out containers, because the portions are very generous. House made soups come with most entrees and even with sandwiches, and my favorite is the split pea soup. I especially like the burgers which taste charcoal broiled.Dessert also comes with most meals - a choice of pudding, ice cream or jello. If you want to order a fancier dessert, they have a variety of fancy cakes and pies. This is a very good diner, loved by the locals. read more

Ewing Diner - The atrium entrance with the cake display case in the background - Diners Near Me - Ewing, New Jersey

Good food at a great price I would highly recommend for locals and people from out of town like I was.

Don't go there - while the service is great and the food is good, my mother was charge $13.99 for a bowl of soup. This was as much as my entree. She says she was not told it was that much; I feel she should have been warned of the cost. The bill for 2 people for an omelet, the soup, a salad and coffees with the tip was $73.00. Other people in the area have had similar complaints so it isn't an isolated incident. When I called the manager he was rude and obnoxious and tallked over me when I tried to explain things. read more

Really cute diner! The people here are so so friendly, you feel instantly welcomed. The food was decent diner fare, and theres a lot of options and variety read more

I can only speak on behalf of the desserts. They are decadent and excellent and go perfectly with a hot cup of diner coffee. I stopped in with a work colleague after a nice Italian dinner. He had eaten at this diner on a previous trip and recommended we stop in for dessert. Excellent decision. It was pretty late and they did a nice job of taking care of us quickly. The most difficult part of the visit was picking which piece of cake i wanted from the myriad options in the big glass case. Not cheap, but worth it if you're looking for a late night coffee and dessert binge. :) read more

Very big portions, good food, good service, nice atmosphere right outside my neighborhood.

Apple Maps and ads on NJ 101.5 both say Ewing Diner is "Open 24 Hours" but this is not true on Mondays and Tuesdays. Sign on the door says they're open until 11:00pm on Mondays and Tuesdays, but when I showed up at 10:10 on Monday night, the first door I tried was locked. The other door was open but when I told the manager the first door I tried was locked he said he forgot to lock both doors. He said he'd serve me if I was quick, then immediately asked me if I needed a menu or if I knew what I wanted. At that point I got up and left, never to return. Come to the Ewing Diner if you want to be treated like crap. Would give 0 stars if I could. read more

The Ewing diner is a TCNJ student staple. I've been a few times and this place has a good diner vibe. The service is usually okay, and the food is average. The real kicker is the dessert. They have some of my favorite dessert in the area, like the blueberry cheesecake and Oreo mousse! I recommend if you're in the area looking for a solid diner. read more

Everyone I know raves about this diner...maybe we went on an off day. We were in the area and not sure what to eat, and figured a diner would be a good place since we were so undecided. It looked like a slow time we were seated, however they bunched us up with the only 3 other tables in the restaurant. I understand there are stations, but my chair was completely bumped up to the other table's chair, with no room if I needed to get out. Our server promptly greeted us and asked if we were ready. We needed a few minutes. We looked at the menus provided, and noticed these were more restaurant prices than diner prices. We ended up going with breakfast and fish and chips off the specials menu. The special menu came with soup or salad and a dessert. I chose a garden salad which had a good mix of veggies. We waited a very long time for our meals. We were looking for our server to get some refills on our drinks but didn't see her. The one bus boy we saw was hustling. He really was on top of things. Our meals finally came out and we got our refills. My boyfriend got eggs over easy...they were a little wet, more than usual. The potatoes were very good. The rye bread was perfectly buttered. The fish were huge, however, the fish was very wet and mushy. Only the ends were edible. The fries were very good, almost a double fry. I could only eat one of the fish. I boxed the rest up and thought maybe it would be better in the air fryer, but it still was mushy. I got the carrot cake as the dessert and had it to go. It was a good size and a good piece of carrot cake. We went to pay and was happy to see there was no credit card fee. Would go again and try some other options. Their bakery Case did look pretty amazing. read more

Ewing Diner - Sole franchise - Diners Near Me - Ewing, New Jersey

Food was average at best. The server was very good. The bill came to $63. Upon paying I did leave a small tip, as I am retired and on a fixed income. The owner became irate at the tip that was left. I informed him tipping is optional not mandatory! I will never go back there again! read more

Just OK. Nothing special and a bit high priced for a Jersey diner. Still, don't avoid it because of me. Hope you have better luck and a better experience. read more

This review is for breakfast only since I have not been there for anything else. Just had my 3rd breakfast at this old school diner and it was exactly like the last 2, good! This place is simple, plain and does eggs right. Their omelettes come with 4 eggs vs the traditional 3 and you get home fries and toast as you do in many other diners. However, when I ask for my potatoes crispy, they actually listen here. Also, the eggs are not over cooked and the additional items (spinach, mushrooms, etc.) are never skimped on. The only zonk for me at the place is the ketchup. Theirs is still decent but i prefer Heinz. Waitstaff is always pleasant and make sure your coffee is filled. Simple, plentiful, and just like a diner should be. If you want a hearty breakfast you need to drop by. read more

Since moving to Ewing in November I have eaten at the Ewing Diner at least four times. Each visit was average at best and nothing to write home about. Tonight, I noticed a few things that will have me never returning. First were the prices. Either I wasn't as attentive my previous visits or prices have soared because they were the first thing I noticed. I ordered a sausage sandwich, which the waitress said they didn't have and where I had to point out on the menu to show they did. The sandwich, your typical with peppers and onions on a torpedo roll, came with soup, fries, coleslaw and a pickle. Price $18.49! Now here's where their stinginess lost them a customer: There was a limit of ONE free refill on a glass of fountain soda (half filled with ice) and NO free refill if you requested a soda without ice! That has got to be the cheapest thing I've ever seen an establishment do. Fountain soda doesn't cost them more than a quarter. Oh, but it gets better. "After 2 coffees you will be charged." Not done yet. "To-Go surcharge (5%) will be added to all takeout orders." Still not done. "All gratuities (20%) may be added to your check." And lastly, "Minimum Service or Sharing Charge: $5.00 (per person)." The food was good today, I'll give them that, but I won't be back. read more

GREAT BREAKFAST Seriously. GREAT. Can't wait to go back. The home fries are done perfectly. They must boil the potatoes partially then put them on the flat top. Awesome and cooked to perfection read more

very poor service. waitress gave me coffee in a cup overflowing onto the plate. she dis not seem to care or heelp. moreover coffee was rather weak and tasteless. my breakfast too was barely warm and served rather carelessly in the plate. it was my first time in the Diner and never again. I regretted tipping as it made tge overall cost of breakfast rather excessive in comparison to other places. not recommended if you care for hot meal , tasting half way decent and served professionally . read more

This is a favorite place to go with my friends for dinner....easy, affordable, tasty! I don't think I've ever had a bad meal here. Service is friendly, non-obtrusive and thorough. If you're looking for typical diner food, it's the best. If you're looking for ambiance, pretentious dining...go somewhere else! Ample parking and usually not a long wait (except Sunday mornings.) You won't be disappointed! read more

Went here for dinner. Extremely expensive for portions at a diner. Had to ask for soup (listed as included on menu). We didnt get pickles or cole slaw that were supposed to come with sandwiches. Grilled cheese was so runny couldnt hold in hand to eat. Would not at all recommend. read more

So we just left the Ewing Diner. I got a bowl of chicken orzo my mom got a cup. They had no crackers so I asked for a piece of bread. He said NO!! I couldn't believe it. I was shocked. He said for us to leave. Don't ever go there!! What a scum bag!!! He said because I didn't order a meal. We had just ordered soup first. And had intended on ordering food. Regardless he had no crackers and was so rude. Please do yourself a favor STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM THIS DINER!! read more

Ewing Diner - Monte Cristo - Diners Near Me - Ewing, New Jersey

Came here on a whim with a friend after an unexpected hospital visit. I had an omelette with broccoli and American cheese, he had a western omelette - they both came with a side of home fries and toast. Food came out quick, but you could define it as typical diner food. The only thing I wish I had asked for would be to make the home fries extra crispy. I'd come back if I was in the area again. read more

We stopped in for a late dinner after my nephews birthday party. I am from Philly, and while we have some OK diners in the area, nothing beats a traditional Jersey diner who can still pull off a huge menu, quality food, and give you that old school atmosphere while keeping a classy modern diner decor. It's a nice cozy space that gives you the option of a booth, table, or a bar. For our meals, we got the gyro, and napolatino panini. We were going to get an appetizer as well, but in true diner fashion, the meals came with a cup of soup, Cole slaw, a pickle, and fries. Plenty to fill up on. The gyro, while a classic, was of good quality. The lamb meat was tender, juicy, and was seasoned well. Too many places have lamb that has the horrible texture of steakums and is paper thin. The pita was soft and fresh and the tzatziki was full of flavor. The napolitano panini was huge to say the least and we definately needed a box for leftovers. It's basically a chicken parm panini with fried eggplant, but all of the ingredients were prepared well. Nothing tasted greasy, the chicken was crispy but still moist and not a tough or grisly piece to be found. The eggplant was also nicely fried and held up well on the sandwhich. The sauce was also acidic enough to cut through all of the fried items on the sandwhich. For dessert, we got a slice of baklava cheesecake to go. It's literally a slice of baklava on top of the cheesecake, and while I didnt think it would work, was the best bite of the night. Thew chewiness from the baklava mixed with the creaminess from the cheesecake was the perfect bite. I plan on coming back to try other things but I'd make the trip just for that cheesecake. read more

Went at about 6:30pm on a Saturday night for dinner. The manager was wonderful and diligent about supervising activity both in and outside, both of which they have seating. After all was said and done, the reuben, the conversation I had with my guest and the delightful manager were the best part of this establishment. Summary: You are safe stopping in if you are going to get the open faced reuben sandwich. At some point it was decided to drastically cut costs by using cheap ingredients and extending the period by which food is kept and available for service prior to being declared "spoiled". Charging what you charge for sub-par quality items is disrespectful to your customers. In that regard, two stars is fair, as your on site manager cannot make up for these shortcomings (Despite being excellent at his job), and I don't think it would have been fair for me to dump all of this on his head. No comment on breakfast offerings so please do not apply this rating to any of those items. Detail: My guest LOVED her reuben sandwich, it was huge and she took another one home it was soo good, so if you stop in here, try one. I got the Texas Panini with lobster bisque, mozz sticks and jalapeno poppers, as well as a piece of cheesecake and coffee for dessert. The mozz sticks were the best part of the meal. The jalapeno poppers do NOT have cheddar cheese as the menu says, and both are ridiculously overpriced, despite the mozz sticks being good. It is a diner so I give them leeway with the pricing, but still, overpriced. The Texas Panini, I don't know how else to put this, was just pathetic. The chicken was full of grizzle and it tasted like it had been premade and was either toasted or microwaved to order. The cheese was kraft singles cheese, I could taste it right away. There was no bbq sauce and the bread was stale chewy (probably from being heated more than once, stored too long, or some combination). The lobster bisque was not lobster bisque. It was old cream sauce with fake crab from the supermarket. I was appalled and put it aside. Never seen anything like that before. The cheesecake was also definitely old and had been sitting there for WAY too long. I still don't know how they managed this one, but even the coffee was just terrible. It tasted burnt, old and like it had been sitting in the pot for ages. For a diner, I am not sure how much worse you can get. I ordered few items to go, and despite my experience (I was highly recommended this diner, so wanted to make sure it got a fair shake), I figured maybe my sample size was too small, and my guest really loved her reuben, so I put in the order for the following items, with comments under each (As a general comment, whoever packaged these items should be "re-educated". Seriously it was a MESS): Brooklyn Burger - Cooked improperly, there was something wrong with the cheese and it had a very very funky taste. Threw most of it away. Chicken Parm - Pasta was way way way overcooked, sauce tasted like Ragu, and chicken was really really tough. Threw half of it away and regretted eating most of the first half. Chili - I think it was supermarket chili, seriously. After heating it up they put it in a clamshell plastic container, as I can only assume they ran out of bowls or appropriate packaging. Bizarre and a total mess which I could have done without. Really disappointing and unfortunate, and I sincerely hope they are able to figure these problems out and do better, before someone gets violently ill of course. read more

Really liked the place our food was pretty good for diner food! Owner was night and waitress! Had a party of 7 so she delt with all of us very well! Bus boy was on point and cleared tables as soon as we finished! Waitress refilled my soda without asking! Would definitely return! About 5/7 people had the chicken parm and everyone loved it and we all also had the French onion soup! Including in the meal was desert and the choices were bread pudding, choc pudding, ice cream, cheesecake or carrot cake! First time I ever had a diner offer a real desert! Def would return if in the area again and was 5 min drive from brother in laws house! read more

Had dinner here last night and had an okay experience. The food was good - I had the French onion soup and a patty melt. I really enjoyed the texture of the fries and everything was cooked to my liking. The only downside was the service. Our waitress was MIA half of the time and seemed to be all over the place. I'm usually fine with this until you don't have anything to drink with your meal and have to just stick it out because she's nowhere to be found. We grabbed a slice of the caramel fudge cake to go and it was very good. Overheard another waitress saying that the cakes were outsourced from a bakery in Philly for the time being, but nevertheless it was a delicious piece of cake. read more
