    French Onion Soup
    Wei S.

    Love the kids eat free Mondays! My son also got his balloon and face painted. The lady is super friendly and accommodating. The service at this place is not consistent. Some staff members are extremely helpful, but some others are okay.

    We recently hosted our daughter's first birthday party at Park Wayne Diner, and it was truly an amazing experience! The back room was perfect for our celebration!! It was spacious, clean, and comfortable for all of our guests. Not to mention how beautifully they set it up for us. The entire staff went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. They were so attentive, friendly, and incredibly accommodating, which made the day completely stress-free for us. The food was absolutely delicious, and our guests couldn't stop complimenting it! We also wanted to mention Moody, who was absolutely wonderful. He was so kind, helpful, and accommodating, and we really appreciated his positive energy and willingness to help with anything we needed. They made our baby girl's special day feel even more special, and we're so grateful. Highly recommend for any event or even just a great meal. We are always here, and the staff treats you as family. Love the vibes here

    Mexicali omelette

    Food was great, large portions easily to split. We got the Mexicali omelette with home fries with bacon on the side. They were decorated nicely for Christmas which was a nice added touch. Ambience and service were great as well. Nice local diner.

    Greek Tacos

    Love this diner!! My favorite diner in town!! These tacos were so yummy and huge!! Everything here is so fresh and never disappoints. Highly recommend. Everyone who works here is also so accommodating and kind.

    Every time I come here I'm greeted with a smile and like family. Everyone that works here is friendly and food is good!! And they just remodeled not so long ago!!!

    It's diner food so it's not a fine dining situation. But the food was basic and good. Our waitress was a thing of beauty! She's probably been there forever. My brother and I were "Hon" the whole time. Classic!

    Newly renovated banquet room

    We just hosted a baby shower in their newly renovated banquet room which is beautiful! The food was outstanding as always. The service was spot on. I can't praise them enough. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, or a special party I suggest them with confidence that you will enjoy.

    Breakfast...French toast and sausage, served all day.

    It's New Jersey and it's a diner. Is the food supposed to be incredible, no, it's culture...diner culture and it's a nuanced part of life in North Jersey. No diner is the same and different people go to different diners and at different times. That being said Park Wayne checks all the marks for a diner and what it should it be. Diners are a volume business, not a fine-dining experience. Service is acceptable here after multiple visits recently. There are good and bad things at Park Wayne. Good: Disco Fries, probably the best we had out of the 3 diners I went to. The gravy had the most flavor and best consistency. The cheese, is well delightful, but everyone uses the same cheese. Sandwiches, Ruben, good with real deli mustard. Not so good: diner service, it isn't anything to write home about and that is the standard. It would be a diner with over the top service. Coffee, never food, always average at best. Diners are a part of life in the Garden State, please embrace accordingly.

    This was our second visit to this diner. I don't think I wrote a review the first time but here goes this one! Prepare to walk into holiday joy. The decor was beautiful and definitely puts you in the holiday spirit. Getting seated took a little bit as it was Sunday and very busy. However once we were seated everything was smooth. I liked that they sat us towards the back because we do have a toddler that can get restless so the extra space between tables was appreciated. Our waitress, Jeniffer was amazing. She was super nice and even offered coloring materials for our son which she informed us she actually purchased herself because of customers with kids. She was very attentive and made sure she knew exactly what we wanted. Coffee was decent. The food was absolutely delicious. All of us enjoyed it and we got the value for our money paid. They were able to add peppers and onions to the home fries which made them tasty. Home fries could've been less burnt in my opinion. The omelette was generously made and definitely the definition of meat lovers. I also added jalapeños which made it even better. Fiancé enjoyed the pancakes so much he had to take the other items home. Daughter loved her boneless wings. Son loved his plain toast with butter. Overall a great experience and would definitely come back.

    Breakfast, eggs over light, bacon, hash browns. Eggs Benedict, home fries, fruit cup.

    Great service, Peggy, Moe,and Chris great servers.Nice atmosphere. We go there at least 8 times a month.

    See all

It was very clean, with music perfectly paired to the already present atmosphere. The staff were some of the friendliest staff I've ever encountered. They all greeted us with a warm smile. We started off with two Chai Lattes: one with whole milk and one with almond milk. The presentation of these lattes was top tier; definitely worth the minor wait. They also tasted even better than they looked. For our brunch, we had gotten some chips and guacamole to start. For our entrees we shared a couple of plates: the body builder omelette with hash browns and a side of white toast, a side of beef sausage, and the French Toast (topped with Pineapple chutney with vanilla glaze and strawberries) with scrambled eggs, cheese and bacon. All of the food was presented beautifully and tasted even better, just like the Chai Latte. The portions were large considering the affordable cost, and it all came out in a timely manner. Aside from the atmosphere and food, the one thing that stood out here was the customer service. Our waiter (I think his name is Wil) was very accommodating and helpful. We had an issue with their machine when trying to pay and Wil handled it quickly and professionally. Even if we didn't have that issue, the entire customer experience was great, and you could tell from the faces of the other tables that they shared our experience. For all that, they get a well deserved 5/5. I would highly recommend checking out the West Side Diner if you want to try out a cozy breakfast/brunch spot that won't break the bank.

It wasn't until the 17th century that this meal became a more common practice, especially among the wealthy, who would have rich dishes like scrambled eggs alongside coffee and tea in the morning. The Garden State is still known as the diner capital of the world. Located off Essex Street in Hackensack, this establishment is one of the handful of 24-hour diners. With its unique harlequin decor, Chit Chat remains a chic, upscale diner that we frequent often with friends and family. Upon arrival this morning, my partner, his family, and I were greeted by the staff at the host station, and we were able to get a table quickly. The menu was extensive, and we took our time looking but did not feel rushed. Their menu includes a lot of things one may not find on a regular menu. We decided on their brunch menu and ordered Raspberry & Brie Stuffed French Toast, Santorini Benedict, Bro-Nana Cocoa-Nuts Multigrain Pancakes, and Chorizo Hash & Eggs with a choice of a complimentary mimosa, bloody Mary, or Bellini. The food is always fresh and tastes delicious. The portion is healthy and the prices reasonable. The service is consistently fast and friendly. Our server was Ashley.

From the moment we walked in, the hospitality stood out. We were the only Asian group in the restaurant, and the host/manager made us feel genuinely welcome. Even though the wait was busy and around 40 minutes, he still found moments to chat with us and keep the mood light, which made the time pass quickly. Our server was absolutely wonderful. I didn't catch her name, but she was friendly, energetic, warm, and incredibly personable. When she learned we were visiting from China and had spent more time in places like Los Angeles before coming to New Jersey for the first time, she happily shared stories about the local area and made us feel right at home. Her kindness completely changed the feeling of a cold, rainy day. The food was outstanding. We finished everything, even though we were already full, because it was just that good. This is the kind of place where the food is satisfying, the portions are generous, and the experience feels real. I made sure to leave my tip directly for our server because she truly earned it. If there's ever an opportunity for recognition or promotion, I hope management knows what a gem they have on their team. Pompton Queen Diner is a reminder of why classic American diners matter so much. In a time when so many places focus only on trendy Instagram aesthetics, this restaurant offers something far more valuable: genuine warmth, personality, and heart. Support traditional local diners like this. They are treasures. Kyle Liu

The Garden State is widely considered the diner capital of the world, boasting more than 450 within its borders. While many diners have changed with the times, several of New Jersey's classic spots still sport that recognizable look today, complete with neon signage that hearkens back to mid-century America.  Located in Pompton Plains off of Route 23 North, this fabulous establishment has everything one wants, from amazing service to great food. My partner and I decided to pay Pompton Queen Diner a visit for dinner for the first time since last summer. I was greeted by the host, and despite how packed the diner was upon arrival, they'll take one's cell # and then text when the table is ready. The wait was never too long--about 15 minutes.  Their menu remains never-ending, and even the pickiest of eaters will find something on the menu to order. We decided on the Chicken Pot Pie accompanied by House Salad with Salami as well as Bronzino & Shrimp Francaise with Italian Sausage Soup.  The food was tasty, well seasoned, and arrived hot. Portions were large. We had a nice server, Randall, who was attentive and accommodating. The price was comparable to the area.  Another great dining experience!
