Did not enjoy my dinner here. But first I'll start with positives. I like that it has a diner vibe with roomy booths to eat. But I did not enjoy my meal. I had a burger and it was not an enjoyable eat. The meat was cooked how I had asked but the burger itself was bland. Also, strangely, it was placed on top of the fries which made it a messy eat. The fries were underwhelming as well. As for service, the waiter had actually forgotten to take my order and I waited over 30 minutes just to place my order.
This place is special. It's a diner but it's not. I've ordered from here many times before and they have not disappointed. We ordered the Mixed Grill, Lamb Chops, and a burger for my son. I asked them not to cook the protein hard. I know complain about things being week-done. I am not that person. We also asked for the lamb to be medium rare, according to my wife it was. Nice. As far as the burger, it was what you would expect, no complaints from my son. I love the options they provide. In such a small space they get it done. Oh and the wings were great.
Great food with awesome portions and friendly staff. Really enjoyed spending New Year's Day lunch here. We were seated upstairs and had the whole section to ourselves which was very nice. Kids menu were offered with a lot of options and ice cream for after. The group ordered a whole bunch of different things and it all came on time and perfectly. Happy customers!
This cute diner style restaurant was conveniently located on the main road on Church Street. After checking out other locations and reviewing their menu, we decided to try brunch here. We enjoyed the extra large three egg omelet with avocado and home fries. The burger and fries, along with greek fries, tasted yummy. What I enjoyed most is the large portions. Decent service, clean bathroom, and comfy style restaurant.
My sister and I decided last minute to go out for lunch but couldn't decide what we wanted. We Googled a few places and chose Montclair House Grill because of their extensive menu. We sat on the patio which was lovely. Perfect for people watching. The staff does a fantastic job of umbrella management to make sure patrons are well shaded. Like I said, their menu is huge. They are open for breakfast, lunch and dinner with so many choices from appetizers, salads, handhelds, entrées; American fare, Mexican, Greek, Vegan. They were very accommodating when I asked for the Bacon Cheddar Grilled Chicken Wrap with a burger instead of chicken. Really delicious with the burger! My sis had the Turkey Bacon Club. Real roasted turkey breast, crisp bacon and avocado. It was one of the best club sandwiches she's ever had. Our meals came with soup and we both had the matzah ball which was perfect. We also shared an order of sweet potato fries. Service was fantastic. We were checked up on often and our server was very sweet. We will definitely be back soon.
After walking all around downtown Montclair, my friend and I ended up here just because it looked great from the outside with a nice friendly ambiance. So we ate inside but there was plenty of covered outdoor seating that was available on a warm, sunny, Saturday afternoon. I had the huevos rancheros skillet and my friend had the chicken wrap. For less than $14, I got quite a meal! The eggs were fresh, the meat was tender, and overall it was just very delicious. Very much got my money's worth! My friend also very much enjoyed his chicken wrap. Would love to come back and try some more of the multiple things that are on their menu. Service was also good. This is one of the things that keeps me coming back to New Jersey. The restaurants have such good variety and I so much enjoy trying them out. Hope to come back soon!
Stopped here for a quick brunch while walking around Montclair. We got the country skillet and the california skillet. Both were really good! They were more like an omelette on top of potatoes than a skillet with everything mixed in like I was expecting. Either way both were really good and there was plenty left over to take home. Love church street's ambience and this is definitely a convenient and affordable brunch option in Montclair. Service was great too.
I came here today to have a lunch meeting with the buddy. Pretty clean place inside with our standard diner type menu. It was lunch so I wanted to try the burger because I like diner burgers. Sometimes it was pretty standard but worth the money they had a good assortment of Panini's and sandwiches, I would definitely come back and try some of the breakfast stuff or a sandwich
First time visit with a party of four.we were greeted by a friendly smile and promptly seated. Our waitress was amazing! So friendly and took our order (four very different dishes) without writing anything down - and all the food was delivered without error! Very impressive. The BBQ burger was huge, quesidilla as well. Glad we stopped in and would definitely return.
Stumbled across the place just walking around the area. We wanted to eat outside and just have a quick salad. I had the sesame chicken salad. It was good lots of chicken and loved the dressing but the carrots should have been shredded instead of just cut (hard to eat). Service was quick and price was reasonable.
This place doesn't even deserve 1 star, it's truly a 0-star restaurant. I went for dinner today and CHEWED A PIECE OF GLASS FROM MY SOUP. I spit it out and then found MORE PIECES OF GLASS in my soup. I called the manager over, and he didn't even seem sincerely apologetic. He just asked if I was okay and then said "it's not something we can control", like excuse me?? And then he went away WITHOUT offering another soup or anything at all; I had to call the waitress to ask to not pay. I ended up not paying for the meal (which, frankly, was the least they could do, given that I CHEWED AND ALMOST SWALLOWED GLASS). The food wasn't good either. Don't make the mistake of going here.
Nice spot for brunch. We sat outside on a gorgeous day. The manager seems like a great guy. He was solicitous and I even saw him fixing tables & making sure guests were comfortable. Our waiter was grumpy. Not sure if she was having a bad day but her attitude was the antithesis of the manager. He had to tell her to come over to us. She seemed annoyed that my friend had a question about what she was ordering, and didn't check on us until it was time for the check. It wasn't a busy morning, the inside restaurant was empty, and there were other wait staff working with the other tables. Anyway, my friend ordered the avocado toast with eggs and I ordered eggs benedict. Both were very good and we enjoyed them. We had a great time talking, and looking at the dogs seated at the next table, and it was just a nice morning all around. We each had a coffee. I'm only taking one star off for the waiter because everything else about the visit was great. read more

Came out to Montclair with the family and decided to pop in here for an easy dinner with the kids and I can't say it there wasn't a better choice. The service was awesome everyone was so friendly and happy to be there. The staff was great!! We had both my 8yo and 1yo with us and we decided to sit outside and enjoy our meal. It was peaceful quiet and no one bothered us it was great! All the food we ordered was very fresh and our son ate everything off his plate plus off ours! He enjoyed a. Vanilla milkshake which was a great! Before we left the staff serenaded us with a mini happy birthday for the little one since he turned one and we enjoyed coffee cake a little extra ice cream! The coffee was actually really good. I get nervous about coffee from diners they're usually burnt and I like mine black. Their coffee was great!! The s'mores cake was a lot of fun and was delicious! read more
Came here for brunch and to take advantage of the large outdoor seating area. Clearly competing with nearby Raymond's and seem to be similar. The Grill is more or less a diner as most of what is on the menu you'd find there with perhaps a few unique selections. This is particularly for the skillets and sandwiches, but there may be more. I had the BBQ Pork Omelette. It comes with toast and sour cream. Very good, very filling. Probably could be shared or saved if you aren't real hungry. I picked it as it was one the the more unique things on the menu, and I've not seen that at any diner or similar place. The don't skimp on the pork and I like that. The day we came it was quite busy so there was a bit of a wait. The wait continued when there was a mix up with the order and the food took even longer to come out. The staff were very apologetic and as result we got reduced bill and free dessert which was very nice. Restaurants that screw up can learn from that. Decent diner-esque fare here. I'd definitely recommend over Raymonds. read more

I was somewhat let down by the food here. They recently reopened for outdoor dining and all of the staff were wearing masks and gloves. The owner/manager was there and doing a great job managing things. The menu has lots of great options to choose from. It is essentially like a diner though. They seem to focus on quantity over quality. I was excited to try the California breakfast skillet. It comes with potatoes, bacon, cheese and eggs with avocado on top. Firstly the flavor was rather lacking. Perhaps some hot sauce would help so I asked for some and it was a little better. Secondly there was only 3 little slices of avocado on top so it felt a bit lacking. The dish was very large and I couldn't not finish it all. I did like the crispness of the potatoes though. I tasted some of the pulled pork bbq omelet and it seemed very flavorful so can recommend that dish. Another thing that happened was our order got lost in the kitchen somehow. We waited for a long time and realized that people who came in after us were already getting their food and we hadn't yet! So we had to reorder and it came out very quickly after that. We really appreciated the discount they gave due to the mistake as well as a dessert on the House! Very good customer service. Our waitress was very apologetic about the mistake and it was a busy weekend day, it happens. read more
First off the owner is so personable and kind. He's part of the reason this place is so successful. The food here is great and in my opinion much better than Raymond's. Portions are large, flavors are great and staff is helpful. Recently had the shrimp linguine and it's delish! I always request light sauce and they never disappoint. read more

Staff was nice and friendly. Outdoor and indoor seating available. The burger was well cooked and had that flame broiled flavor to it, just the way I like it. The Turkey BLT wrap was also on point. I sat outside and the weather was nice too. I'll definitely be back to this spot!! read more

Lemon potatoes contained potatoes that were rotten (see photo), the mixed veggies were mostly undercooked and some were raw with excessive seasoning, the coleslaw is terrible/tasteless, the Philly Cheesesteak had hardly any peppers & onions or cheese. I asked for a regular burger bun for the burger and received a brioche. One good thing, the burger was good. Now 4 hours later I have horrible heart burn read more

I had a great dinner Saturday night at Montclair house. My friend and I ate outside. We had hummus, stuffed grape leaves, chicken kabob and the dish in the picture, cod fish on brown rice with olives and feta cheese. The hummus was creamy and delicious, just perfect, as was the stuffed grape leaves, and I couldn't believe how good my meal, the codfish, was... I was also happy when the check came. Go...just go! read more
