Went there Sunday morning with my daughter's family. They were crazy busy. Waited about 20 minutes and it was worth it. Excellent portions, good service, a little slow but worth the wait. A little loud, but understandable because it was so busy. We would definitely return read more

I had never frequented New Egypt Kitchen before, but my wife & Mother In Law had been (for breakfast, a couple of times). Shortly after entering this establishment, I realized I had dinner in this building before, but the last time was several years ago (was Naples Pizza & Pasta back then, in 2018). Everything had changed, decor was simple and rustic now. Anyway, we ordered lunch. Conversation between us was strained because the music was a bit loud (albeit, it was a decent genre, 70's & 80's Rock). It took a while for the meals to arrive to our table, even though only one other table was occupied at that time in the restaurant. Our waiter was a bit inattentive also (or maybe inexperienced ?). I had to get up to ask him for some plates for our mozzarella stick appetizer, some ice in my wife's Iced Tea, a bottle of ketchup for my Mother In Law's French fries, and the coleslaw that was suppose to come with my Mother In Law's meal. Food was alright though, not great, but not horrible either. I don't agree with the 4 & 5 Star reviews for this place though, maybe breakfast is better, but that certainly wasn't what I experienced yesterday during our lunch. I imagine I still might be back someday, because it's close to where my Mother In Law lives and there really isn't a lot of choices nearby. A weak 3 Star Rating for now, I'll write an updated review when we return for breakfast sometime. read more

From the staff to the food everything was great. We then brought my boss and his wife, and they loved it. So they brought their entire family. Going back soon. The Rigatoni and Hot Sausage was great read more

Traveling on Rte 539 near New Egypt and found this charming little place for lunch! The menu was surprisingly varied. I had the most delicious cheeseburger with onion rings and my companion had soup and sandwich. Both were excellent. A real find! read more

As a new resident of this quant town, my family and I have been on the hunt for quality restaurants. I really wanted to love this place but unfortunately I will not be returning. The food was not good at all. The service wasn't bad, the girl was nice enough but the food was just bad. We left there very dissatisfied. It's a very small restaurant with little seating. I hear it's a great breakfast place and I read people raving about it online but unfortunately we will not be back to try. read more

This is a year later The food is better than ever As is the service As a "local" It has become our place of choice No matter what time of day Breakfast try anything with fresh made corned beef hash Lunch and dinner specials don't disappoint read more

Restaurant was nice interior. The egg scramble was pretty tasty. Gravy was not very good and cost $5 though which was very expensive for what it was. Also I didn't order coffee but it was delivered and had to pay for it anyway. But I enjoyed the food and would come back again. They were quite fast with maki my everything. read more

We were recently visiting my parents that live in the area and they said they wanted to take us to their new favorite breakfast spot. The New Egypt Kitchen is great! Since we don't live in Jersey anymore, my daughter and I both picked meals with pork roll. I had the pork roll eggs benedict. The eggs were perfectly poached, and their hollandaise had just the right amount of lemony goodness Their portion sizes are amazing, which meant I had leftovers and breakfast for the next day! My daughter enjoyed her pork roll egg and cheese, the roll was just the right texture. I honestly don't remember what my parents ordered, I was too focused on my amazing meal to pay attention. I know they both enjoyed their food too though. The waitress was super sweet and kept our coffee topped off, which is always appreciated. This is a family run business and they treat their customers right. My only complaint is that the bathroom was freezing! It was clean and serviceable, but also so cold. read more

Exceptional good Servers are pleasant and helpful Ambiance laid back but a little noisy read more

Food was great. Service was friendly. Very quaint and yet inviting. Really enjoyed our meal. Definitely recommend!

Cute diner, friendly people. New Egypt Skillet - Pork Roll, Bacon, Sausage, Eggs, Hash Brown and Toast - Bacon was burnt, but other than that, nothing special, it was just ok Corned Beef Hash - the corned Beef was not as crispy as I would like. The grilled tomatoes were barely grilled. Again, nothing special. It was just edible food. We were on our way to Six Flags and went a bit out of the way to try some place new. But next time we will just eat in our area before getting on the road. read more

First time there. Brittany was a delightful server and the menu is fairly simple but also almost overwhelming with its impressive offerings. We had the Long Tour (chicken parm, raviolis, and fettucine alfredo) and a delightful shrimp dish with choice of soup or salad . . . both at quite reasonable prices . . . very good but we needed to take some of it home and they provided excellent plastic containers and a quality handled bag to take it home. BYOB. It is definitely not my only visit to New Egypt Kitchen. read more

My father and I went to new Egypt kitchen. We ordered California Burger and Cajun chicken sandwich. Everything was very delicious and juicy. Definitely coming back and recommending this place to friends and family. Also Service was great and friendly. read more

Flies all over, Board of Health should close this place, owners don't know common decency or how to even accommodate customers by simply turning down loud music. Shame on them , never going back , stay away, caution , taking your life into your hands. The worst. read more

The Kitchen is wonderful and has a sense of home style hospitality! The servers are very friendly and courteous! The food portions are extremely generous and at affordable prices too. The best coffee on the planet! read more

Place is quite homie and food is well prepared and for a small establishment it's done well

The cheese burger was the size of the ' The Tower of Pizza, in Italy. Great hospitality.

Let me be fair -- the food was actually good. Credit where it's due. But unfortunately, the service came with a side of attitude that left a bad taste. We were given a completely different cup for no clear reason, waited way too long for our fries, and when they finally arrived... there were fifteen. Yes, I counted. That's not "small," that's stingy. The way we were treated felt less like a mistake and more like a choice -- as if the staff simply decided we weren't worth the same courtesy as everyone else. It's a shame, really. Great food deserves better company behind the counter. read more

First time here. Can't wait to come back. Had the Loaded Homefries. It was made with FRESH INGREDIENTS as if I cooked it myself. Great NEW spot for us. It was a 20 min drive but well worth it. Keep up the Great work. read more

My husband and I have been there numerous times for breakfast and absolutely loved the food & the service. Plenty to eat. The prices are great & the waitress always pleasant. So we decided let's try it for lunch. We were again totally pleased great portions and we even got to meet the cook. He is also very pleasant and once again not disappointed in the food or the service. We are definitely going to be going back again for both breakfast & lunch and soon we will be trying it for dinner. I don't usually 5 star places but this one definitely deserves it. read more

was looking for a random spot to try so I landed on this one. We were the only ones in there during a late lunch. I got the california burger. It didn't have to be that big and stacked up. It tastes fine though and the fries were good. the service was great too, I think it would be better during breakfast time read more

Went to the New Egypt Kitchen today for the first time with a few friends around 3-3:15pm. Some constructive advice for the restaurant: 1) As new patrons we had no idea we could order breakfast, lunch or dinner regardless of the time we were eating. We were given the "lunch menus" and that is all we thought we could choose from. After ordering from that menu, we learned, we could have ordered from the "dinner" menu. Suggestion, ask your customers what menus they want to view. Might be all three. 2) One of us ordered a cheeseburger on white bread and the other three of us ordered "hot open faced sandwiches" (which are normally served on 2 pieces of white bread). We were told due to a busy breakfast session that morning, there were only 2 available pieces of white bread available. We observed a store not far from the restaurant. Once they noticed they were about to run out of white bread, someone should have gone over to the store and bought some back to the restaurant. It's always the small things that make for a less than favorable experience and this could have been avoided. read more

Service Very unorganized. Waited 30 min never got my order . Only customer seated when I ordered . Then told there was a mix up now working on order . Forget It . I left read more

Love this restaurant. The food is fresh & the waitresses are terrific. My only complaint is the wait for food. We were there this weekend (we are regulars) and we waited 40 mins for our order. The wait time for food is always so long. That is the only issue we have otherwise it's a great local place to eat. read more

Great food and great service . The owner and his daughters take great care to make sure you experience is 5 stars. We had our company Christmas party in December and what a spread they put out for us. The food was delicious and plentiful . read more

My Wife and I had dinner at the New Egypt Kitchen, and I must say we enjoyed our visit. Our Server was Gracin, and she was very pleasant and engaging. Gracin recommended the Stuff Pork Chops, and it was some of the best I have ever eaten. On this evening the place was busy, but I notice the wait staff keep things moving and I for one was very impressed. Defiantly will be returning and have been singing the praises to our friends, and family. Nice to enjoy an evening with my wife... good food and superb service.. wonderful lil spot in New Egypt, NJ... read more

This is going to be a long review to understand the whole situation so I'm sorry in advance. My sister and I drove a long distance with 5 kids. Two girls (4,5) had to pee. My sister was also feeling sick. This restaurant was the first place we passed in at least 15 minutes. My sister runs inside with her daughter first and I come in with the other 4 a bit after. I'm asked if I want a table and I say no thanks (we all have a vicious viral infection coughing and sneezing like crazy so no we weren't going to stay and eat) I'm waiting on my sister in the bathroom. So I walk over to the hallway (which only has one men and one women stall so it's super small hallway) I'm keeping the kids out of the way of everyone the best I c can while trying to help my sister (who is having an allergic reaction). A different worker comes to me and says bathrooms are for customers only and we HAVE TO buy at least our kids drinks. And walks away. Meanwhile I have 5 kids I'm trying to keep quiet and calm. The entire time I'm standing there with the kids, the chef is leaning over from the kitchen staring at me and pointing and yelling at his coworkers. At this point I'm pissed and want to just leave. So my sister comes out and we get a table. My sister has to go outside and walk around and ends up getting sick. While she was outside the waitress kept asking what we want and I just ordered drinks. She asked me about 5 times "is that all you're getting". So I said "I want to get a kids order of nuggets and fries for the kids to share" and she says "okay 3 orders of nuggets and fries and I say no no, just one for them to share...she aggressively crosses out what she wrote and redid the order. Later my sister ordered the same thing for her kids and the waitress says "we don't have a kids order of chicken nuggets." i have a picture of the kids menu with that as an option. They tried everything to charge us as much as possible for using the restrooms in an actual emergency and assuming we weren't going to stay or buy anything. our bill was over $50 for two chicken nugget orders and three fry orders. I've never felt this uncomfortable in a restaurant before. read more

We tried this local diner which just opened up about 2 months ago. I must say we were very happy with our experience! The place is very cute and so clean. The bathrooms were immaculate and to add more positives, the food we ordered was spot on. Granted, it was early afternoon so we decided to have a late breakfast, but everything was cooked to perfection and very tasty. I think people should give it a try! read more

Great food, service and price! You can't beat them for the food you get for the money. Burgers were fresh, fries were great. We're going to be repeat customers for sure. read more

Popped in for a late breakfast/ early lunch. First we had to stop and admire all the beautiful flowers in the front garden. Nice ramp entrance for my friend instead of using the steps. One young lady seats, serves and does register. Dad's in the back as chef. We had western omelets with home fries and all delicious. I can't remember when I had home fries seasoned so well! Yummy. We'll swing down this way again. Plenty of seating. W/C accessible. Parking free and easy. read more

We are regular customers of New Egypt Kitchen. They have good service and decent food. The menu has regular fare, such as burgers and pastas and normally they serve authentic Mexican food on Wednesday evenings. We went one Wednesday and they said they weren't serving the Mexican food. We were disappointed so we left and went to Lakehurst for Mexican. read more

Delicious food. Made to order. I had a turkey panini. Highly recommend. I will be back to try breakfast for sure.

I have gone to this place since they first opened and in the beginning yes they were a little slow. But the food was definitely worth it now I have gone there several times and the service is excellent, the people are very nice and the food is excellent. read more

Stopped in to place a to-go order. The restaurant was busy but the staff kept up; cleaning tables, bringing drinks, taking orders. While I was waiting, I looked at the plates going to tables and was impressed. Breakfast plates were heaped with eggs, meat, and potatoes. Everything smelled delicious. I got my order and took it to my friend's house. The cheeseburgers (must've been 1/2lb) were cooked to our specs, the onions, tomatoes, and lettuce were fresh, as was the bun, and the fries were crispy outside and potatoey on the inside. My only complaint is that the potato salad looked like it came from a bucket - you know, the cheap kind. So, get the burger and fries and skip the potato salad. I will stop there again next time I'm out that way. read more
