    Great place! Good food and good price! Service was fast. I loved my panini. Everything is fresh. House made desserts

    Great diner! I was in the Edison area and was looking for a diner to grab dinner, so happy I stopped in. Its a nice size diner/restaurant. Food is absolutely great, very fresh, and delicious. The service was very good. We will def be back!

    Beef stew, a lot of pasta, otherwise delicious

    Good diner. Tasty beef stew (special of day) over pasta. More pasta than beef stew, otherwise I would give 5 stars. Came with soup or salad. Place is clean and waitstaff was attentive. Music on a very interesting channel old-new soul. Enjoyed my meal here. $21 for dinner which is reasonable.

    I've been craving a good quesadilla - and mannys delivered another awesome meal this weekend! It still holds strong as one of my favorite local diners.

    Firecracker Shrimp & Calamari | #intenselypassionatephotography
    Tiffany M.

    Hey hey Adventureres! Came here on a Sunday evening with a guy friend. Ordered a few bloody mary's and the Firecracker Shrimp & Calamari(really good). When we sat down the chair was wobble, I told him to switch but he felt comfortable with it. Spent a few hours in our own little world (we had ubered there). minding our own business, not loud or rowdy, just enjoying ourselves. My friend got up to go use the restroom (we were getting ready to leave), and must have tripped on the wobble chair or got caught up with his jacket since the bar filled up. But all of a sudden I heard people exclaim that he fell and was knocked out. I was facing the bar trying to find the bartender for the check so I did not see exactly what happened. EMT'S were called and like 3 cop cars showed up. So to preface this when the first officer showed up he seemed really aggressive. I may have been emotional and tipsy but I was worried about my friend who happened to be brown and an aggressive cop(I did not feel safe around this officer), because all I heard was someone saying an unconscious male. Nowhere in the statement was accident used. The officer even said to me 'I can't talk to you because you're being combative(he walked away)--again I was bewildered by seeing my friend KO'ed completely but as an officer, you need to deal with all kinds of people not just dismiss them. But what really got me was on top of everything that was going on the bartender--who we had no issues with while dining/drinking--started tossing off comments about how terrible I was arguing with an officer and other off-handed comments that even the manager kept telling her to leave the room. Her last words were never come here to drink again---sure as heck you bet I'm not. If you attack your patrons for an accident on the premises then no way would I go back. They're pretty lucky a lawsuit wasn't brought up due to him having a staple in his head afterward. The manager even apologized, and I even tried paying our tab, I apologized profusely(he wouldn't let me pay) and had to grab a ride with the sergeant because the EMT's just left without letting me know where my friend was taken. With all this being said, I'd still recommend this for the cute outdoor patio where we sat because of the ambiance. I suppose the staff aside from the really rude bartender. It sucks I can't go back but it's a cute place and would probably be even cuter during summer if that patio opens the garage-style roof and doors.

    You walk in and you ate immediately greeted and made feel welcome by the great staff. The place is bigger than it seems from outside. Now the food. I loved my stuffed jumbo shrimp with brown rice. It come with green beans but I asked for none. Do I wish the stuffing had more crab? Yes, but it tastes great so I didn't take away a star. My wife's panini was huge and she loved it.

    The food portions were generous, delish for a great price. Our waiter Andres was so nice, attentive and was very friendly! The ambiance was very nice, and they even had a Bar! Highly recommend and MUST to go back to try to the desserts but, ate to much to try this time :(

    I love Jersey diners! Huge diner with lots of food choices.. The staff is friendly and super attentive and the food was so filling. My friend got the breakfast burrito and I ordered the huevos rancheros. There is also a parking lot which makes it convenient and it's super close to the parkway!

    Local diner! Long day at work, wanted to grab a quick bite to eat! Fantastic service by Julien K! Got the appetizer special! Crab cakes! Yummy! I asked Julien I am torn between the cheesecake and baklava! Mind blown when Julien said the diner bakes a baklava cheesecake!!! It was 2 amazing desserts in one!! Thank you Julien for a lovely evening!!

    French onion burger
    Jocelyn L.

    Came here with a large group. Keep in mind, if you make reservations for a party of 8 or larger, they will hold your card for $50 until you arrive and apply that to your bill (or refund you). The food was good, I didn't drink but my friends enjoyed the cocktails. I liked my French onion burger but was surprised it didn't come with lettuce and tomato. The curly fries were very good though. My friend got the platter with eggs, French toast, bacon and asked for extra crispy potatoes which we always take as 50/50 whether it happens (it didn't this time so they were only okay). The staff was nice and friendly.

I called in for a big party, and they did an excellent job with the table-setting & location. Secondly, the food: Their apps are absolute winners. Our table got the Bavarian Soft Pretzel ($12) and the 12-piece wings ($22). Both came out hot and full-of-flavor! Both were excellent with a cold beer. For my main, I actually got a special which was not on their main menu. It was a Fajita Burger served with (you guessed it...) fajita fries. I added jalapenos for an extra kick. It was very good, but the buns are quite thick, so I actually just ate it with the bottom bun intact. The burger patty itself is quite thick which I enjoyed in this current smash-burger phase our world is currently in. Don't sleep on a pub burger.

    Visited some friends recently who took us to eat dinner at Paragon Tap & Grill. Before going, they…read moreclaimed Paragon was a great place to get food. From the outside, it didn't look like anything special or a place to rave about but I quickly learned why it was all the talk with them. Since it was a Saturday night, they had a nice crowd and the place itself had a feel of both a sports bar and a brew pub. The one side was more of a sports bar type of feel (or setup) and the other half had more of a brew pub type of feel. After looking at the menu, I decided to go with the healthier choice so I ordered the Drunken Parm Sandwich. I wish I took a picture of the sandwich when it came out because it looked very good and like it was made fresh. Almost immediately, the server came over to me to let me know that they made me real chicken rather than the vegetarian chicken and said she would take it back for the vegetarian chicken. I opted to keep it since I knew there was a chance it would probably get thrown out. I took one bite of the sandwich and I have to say, it was one of the BEST chicken parm sandwiches I've ever had. It was piping hot and tasted fresh. From the chicken, to the sauce, to the bun, it all tasted fresh and practically melted in my mouth. It was a little on the salty side but aside from that, it was made to perfection. To top the night, as we were paying the bill, our server Maya (who was very friendly and tentative during our visit) handed me a take out container with the veggie chicken parm sandwich in it AND the general manager Greg came over to me to apologize for the mistake and said the veggie chicken parm was on the house. It's very rare for me that this happens. I wish I lived closer to Paragon so I can go back more often but believe me, I'll be back there for drinks and dinner next time I'm in the area. I highly recommend going there. Their service, food, and drinks will not disappoint.
