Park Avenue Grill - Mandarin Chicken Salad and Kids Hot Dog - American Near Me - Freehold, New Jersey

Hubs and I decided to give this place a try for lunch. The place was bustling but we were immediately seated. We were offered a large round table but we didn't feel right taking it in case there was a larger party coming in. So, we asked for another table and got one slightly smaller. Hubs ordered the Spanish omelette, which is stuffed and topped with salsa. He liked it and thought it was tasty. He thought it was fluffier than most places and that was appreciated. Everything from coffee to potatoes were good and satisfying. I had the Cali burger, which is charbroiled burger layered with American cheese, lettuce, tomato, raw red onions and mayo. It came out medium rare and it was soft and good. I liked it a lot. Service was quick and friendly. Will definitely return to try other items on the menu. read more

Absolutely LOVED Park Avenue Grill. I must have passed the location so many times and never went in... so glad Yelp pointed me in the right direction. The menu is amazing and I had a really delish Chicken Satay Wrap. Everything was super fresh and our server Betty was amazing too. I can't wait to go back! Sorry no photos ... we were hungry and the food was so good. read more

Great place! Something for everyone on the menu. Whether breakfast or lunch - it's always great. The staff is very friendly and your coffee cup is never empty! And it's veteran owned to top it off. read more

Friendly family run business. Decent prices and excellent food ...tough to decide between a cheese omelette or pancakes

Let me start by saying I've patronized this diner for several years and never once experienced this until ownership and the staff changed. I met someone for breakfast today. We tried to order the one egg platter which clearly comes with either home fries or potato pancakes (picture attached). The waitress (Rosa) tried to charge us for an up charge. When I said the menu clearly says either or is included, the response was well they're changing the menu it's a up charge. When I questioned it again the response was well prices are going up, the menus changing, and it shows a $2 charge in the computer. Well I'm sorry the public can't see your computer. Instead of just honoring what the menu clearly showed she just kept arguing with stupid excuses. I'll definitely never be back. read more

Park Avenue Grill - Photo of menu showing it clearly shows either or is included. - American Near Me - Freehold, New Jersey

Stopped in for lunch. The staff was friendly and the menu was typical diner fare. The place is larger than it seems from the outside strip mall look and we were made comfortable before perusing the menu. We ordered a grilled chicken wrap and a bacon cheeseburger. You can't really go wrong with those at a diner and we were not disappointed. There's plenty of other choices to be had if you're so inclined and find yourself in the area. If I'm back in the area I would stop in again. read more

Good food, ordered bacon, egg and cheese sandwich and waffle platter..both were very tasty..friendly staff, prompt service

Great place. Breakfast is amazing! Sausage and corned beef hash iare excellent choices. Coffee is right on! Nice and clean. Look for the clock in the ceiling. I would put a photo of the food but I was hungry and it was good!! Ha!! Small place and closes at 230. But we'll worth it. read more

Had an awesome meal at Park Avenue Grill. I found the staff to be extremely friendly and responsive and the ambiance was a very inviting. This place is large enough to avoid line backups and small enough to not feel that staff is stretched to their limit. I will definitely be returning in the future for breakfast again as well as lunch. read more

Perfect place to grab lunch while working, business meeting, etc. Parking is ample and simple. From the time you walk in you are welcomed by what seems like a nice family. I've been there a few times and the staff already remembers my preferred hot sauce and where I like to be seated. Good is good. All the staples for breakfast and lunch. Specials are good. I especially like the home made soups and the interesting wrap selections. Even if the food wasn't great I would go because I'm treated so nicely and my Diet Coke is never empty. read more

My daughter and I went for breakfast and was the first time for my daughter, she loved the cozy atmosphere, clean, no food smell, service, quality, excellent bacon and to top it all, they accept credit cards without passing the fees to its customers, I highly recommend this as it has been my place of breakfast for quite a while, thank you for your quality of food, Cleanliness , and great atmosphere !! read more

The food was excellent, quick and efficient service too! Loved the club sandwich in particular.

Park Avenue Grill - a plate of french fries and a sandwich - American Near Me - Freehold, New Jersey

Okay - I gave it another shot and I was impressed. The restaurant was slow but my server was attentive and stopped by my table to ask about my satisfaction. I ordered the Park Ave Eggs Benedict (added spinach and tomato) which was excellent. My home fries were cooked correctly (I asked for them to be well done and crispy) and the eggs perfectly poached. My meal was served in a timely manner. Last, but not least, the coffee was good and topped off twice. Nice turn around for me and I will stop in again. read more

Park Avenue Grill - Not very busy on a Friday morning - American Near Me - Freehold, New Jersey

Such a great find and a time warp throwback. First, cash only. Did y'all hear that? CASH ONLY!!! That usually means the food is awesome, which it was. I got the Beowulf bowl and the person I was with got a bacon burger deluxe. I also got Manhattan clam. All our food was awesome, the service was attentive - try and sit in the booth next to the serving area and ask them to just reach over and serve the food vs. walking around. I wish this place was closer to me. One star off for CASH ONLY. read more

One of the "go to", highly repeated places, for our entire family. If you ever want to know the time look at the clocks all over the ceiling. There are interesting teapots along the windows. A comfortable place. Not high class. Not low. Comfortable. Small family owned restaurant that has wonderful french fries unlike any other restaurants in the area that I've tried. The food is cooked well and served at decent speed. Priced very nicely as well. The staff has been friendly and we've noticed shades of friendly family relationships between staff and customers. Since COVID-19 they started taking credit carts. (4 starts to leave room for exceptional... read more

Atmosphere: The Park Ave Grille looks like you stepped into a time machine to the 80s. It's located in a large shopping center and attached to a laundry mat. The inside is small and seats about 30 people. There are plenty of booths, tables, and a bar. Most of the Park Ave Grille is covered in vintage wallpaper, booths, and an assortment of tea kettles.  It was much more unique than many diners! Coffee: The coffee was brewed hot and fresh each time. I appreciated that the mugs were sturdy.  The coffee was often refilled, and I have no complaints. Food: The Park Ave Diner has most anything you could want for breakfast or lunch.  The menu is low key and not many "fancy" items, but diners don't need to be.  There were all sorts of wraps, sandwiches, salads, and breakfast items.  I decided to order the Monte Cristo sandwich which came with fries. I've never had a Monte Cristo sandwich and what better time to try one than a diner.  The bread was french toast and stuffed with turkey, ham, and cheddar cheese.  I feel like I've been missing out because the sandwich was excellent.  The french fries were some of the best I've had in a while.  To say the meal was surprisingly good, is an understatement. Service: The waitress was extremely friendly, and the food was brought out quickly.  In fact, I was in and out of the restaurant within 30 minutes.  Beating that is hard! Overall Thoughts/Summary: I was pleasantly surprised with the Park Ave Grille.  I have never had a Monte Cristo sandwich, and it was great.  The service, food, coffee, and overall experience was excellent, and I'll be back. read more

I'm a simple woman, so when I eat at a diner, I judge it by how they serve my favorite diner standard: the French Dip Sandwich. Theirs is fantastic. Tender, flavorful, not overstuffed with meat, the bun is toasted with a welcome touch of garlic butter and the au jus is better than average. Fries were nice too; almost certainly a frozen variety but good quality. The atmosphere is just what you want for a diner; welcoming and cozy and clean with friendly service. Has a pretty classic look. Seats are reasonably comfy. Oh, and the prices aren't bad either, especially considering the quality. read more

My husband and I dropped in on a Sunday after church and I was firstly so impressed by the owner, a young man military vet back from duty. I ordered the yogurt with berries, granola and Nutella and it was literal as beautiful as a work of art. I wish I'd taken a picture then. It was every bit as yummy too. We will definitely be back. We've lived in the area for five years and just found this gem. I think it was going down and this young man rescued it. Enjoy!! read more

Place has new owners that have made great changes. They are now open 7 days a week with extended hours, the menu has grown, they take credit cards and all the new ways to pay, took down some of the Knick knacks, and spruced up the outside eating area. Good news is they kept the chef and most of the wait staff. read more

This should be everyone's go to place!! The food is always amazing...the service is always spot on!! If you want great food with a twist come here. They offer gluten free and will always take special diets and requests by anyone who comes in. If this wasn't reason enough to come, Erin and her husband have always been big supporters of the town and really went above & beyond during Covid to make sure the town had great food for take out and they silently donated 1000s of meals to families in need In addition to this they continue to be a main contributor to the Thank a Cop program, whereby they send food to various police precincts to thank them for their service. I recommend, without any reservations, you come down to sit in their newly renovated inside seating or on their new outdoor patio. Erin, her husband and their crew will bedazzle you with their signature dishes that look amazing!!! read more

Food was excellent. Service was beyond expectations. Our waitress was on top of things. The atmosphere was lovely. Probably the cleanest cafe I've been in Including the restrooms! Park Avenue Grill deserves high recognition. Prices are very fair! We will be returning and spreading the word. read more

Your typical friendly hometown diner. I was able to grab a seat at the counter right as I walked in and was greeted by a very friendly staff. Menu had your typical breakfast items, aside from the breakfast quesadilla which stood out to me. I'm a huge sucker for Mexican inspired egg creations. Taste-wise, pretty good. Would get again, however if I was to nitpick, I'd have them cut it into fewer portions. The innards were spilling out whenever I tried to pick it up which proved to be a slightly messy experience. The home fries were also lacking the crispiness I often long for from diners. They are cash only which was a bit annoying, as I had to walk to the convenience store to take out cash and was charged a fee, but there was a sign on the door. So shame on me for not noticing I guess. Could be more prominent though. read more

Small little place in a strip mall. You can miss it if you are driving too fast. Someone recommended the walnut cranberry french toast which was really good. I would suggest getting the brandy syrup on the side because otherwise it is drenched in it and could make fresh toast soggy. The eggs benedict was also quality. They do it right for a diner. The owner is always around and sometimes comes by the table to say hello. Such a nice lady. I highly recommend this place. Come here for breakfast you will not regret it. read more

This place all starts with Sue the owner- the nicest friendliest person you'll ever meet. The entire menu looks delicious, but I was in a Jack Johnson type of mood and I went with banana pancakes for breakfast that were cooked to perfection. They were HUGE. I can't wait to try the rest of the menu. Our server was friendly, kind, and quick. It's located right by the traffic light in the strip mall on Park Ave around the corner from the Shop Rite off Route 9. Definitely will be back. Shout out to Sue- You are the best!!! read more

this place sucks There customer service is not good . ordered a few plates today and barely got any food.

Corned beef hash is among the best I've eaten in a long time. Wait staff is pleasant; food order quick and a great value. Christine is the best! Diner could use a makeover. Very old look and a musty smell when you walk in. read more

I went for breakfast this morning and the food was so delicious that I ended up leaving with lunch to go as well. For breakfast, I ordered the Fuji Apple french toast with a side of bacon. For lunch, I ordered the Spicy Thai wrap. Both were very tasty! The service was great. The owner, Sue, and our waitress were very friendly. Overall, it was a really pleasant experience. I highly recommend this place. I will be going back for sure! read more

I have been going to Park Ave Grille for years. It is a great place for breakfast or lunch. It is standard diner food but everything is always good. The service is excellent too, everyone is super friendly and even when they are busy it is super quick. I really haven't had anything I didn't like from Park Ave. I would definitely recommend trying their homemade corned beef hash, it's so tasty! Also when they have tomato soup as the soup of the day you have to try it, it's the best tomato soup I've ever had. I really love their fries too!! read more

Sue. Speak to your son and daughter for the actual facts before you post. Seems it went vastly different than your post.

Had breakfast at this humble diner on Saturday morning. Knew we were in the right place when the largest table was full of uniformed sheriffs. I got the pancakes stuffed with sausage. It sounded risky - could be greasy or heavy. It was just perfect. Not too much sausage - think blueberry pancakes with sausage instead. That perfect sweet and savory flavor I love. The rest of my crew got eggs and sausage and loved it. Coffee and service were equally excellent. Not crowded. Top marks. read more

This place is great. Never had a bad meal. We've been here for b-fast & lunch. Tried diff menu items & they're all good. The only complaint I have is that they close at 2:30. read more

Atmosphere- small country feel. Very comfy, good counter space, and friendly staff. Food- LOVE. Organic and gluten-free options. Unique baked egg and egg Benedict options. The fresh-squeezed oj is a must. You pay a little bit more, but the quality is worth it. Sometimes the service can be slow, but usually because they are always busy. Good desserts to go. New- will be serving dinner soon! read more

Another "average" restaurant in Freehold. Everything was okay, from the decor, to the food, to the service. I had a veggie omelette, hubby had the Mexicali Scramble, and we shared a short stack of pumpkin pancakes. I did like that they offer egg beaters ($1 upcharge). FYI, it is cash only. Again, it was fine, but I am not certain that we'd make a special trip to dine there again. read more

One of my favorite stops in Freehold. This diner has incredible food and attentive waitstaff. The group thoroughly enjoyed their meals and were ready to plan the next visit. All the food was served piping hot and served with generous portions. Would definitely recommend for breakfast. read more

I don't recommend this place. The waitress was extremely rude. Forcing me to leave a tip. Tells me I can't use a debt card on a credit card machine. Then in front of a whole bunch of people asks me don't you normally tip people when you go out ?. Customer service is needed to be taught in this establishment. If I could I wouldn't give them any stars. Save your money read more
