    Chocolate cake
    Katie R.

    Went for tea and dessert on the weekend. Good service. The cake was very rich. The waffle was good. Presentation was nice. Nothing bad to say. Very large menu, many options. They also serve alcohol.

    Salt

    We have been here a few times. Food is very good with ample choices, but pricy for a diner. They also have alcoholic drinks , but we have not try them. Service is excellent with warm professional staff mostly young ladies. The ambiance is excellent. The place is very clean, comfortable chairs and booths, good lighting and music. Recommendations: the place is too cold even in summer and please swap the on-table salt dispenser to regular ones. The current one does not have iodine and requires grinding. It's not practical for fries and salads.

    Lovely diner in New Jersey. I ordered a beef wrap and it was delicious. The beef was thinly sliced and cut into two halves. Service was excellent and the atmosphere very nice. Definitely would recommend this diner!

    Showing time we were turned away

    We arrived at 9 pm on Sunday. Their hours are until 10pm. After a few minutes a server approached us and said they were no longer seating tables. I confirmed if they were supposed to be closing at 10 and she said we do but we decided to close earlier today. I was upset by this because my Dad and I had a long day at the hospital visiting a family member and when we wanted to eat my Dad had suggested "another diner". I pushed for us to come to this one because it was closer to home and had better reviews than his suggestion. I was highly disappointed that we were turned away because "they decided to close early". My dad is retired from the restaurant industry and even he said he'd never heard of anything like that before. After this sour experience I'm not sure I'll be coming back again.

    Easy to get to location. Staff was very nice and attentive. Food came out in a reasonable time. Nice clean looking diner. I got a special for lunch, which was very good. The Monte Carlo and we also got the chicken quesadilla. It was huge.

    This diner looks clean. It looks like an updated diner. We went on Saturday morning and there wasn't a wait and there wasn't many people dining in. The first thing that caught my eye is when I asked for the kids menu they stated they didn't offer one. I was a bit surprised for a diner not to offer a kids menu. This establishment is an average dining experience. The food wasn't out of the normal. The prices were pretty high, especially for diner food. I personally wouldn't go out of my way to eat here again but if I was in the area it was okay.

    Nice and clean diner and the service was decent. The food was great so I would actually go back and try different dishes from the menu!

    This place is fairly clean, has a nice sized parking lot and offers a pretty robust menu. The service was not the friendliest but the hostess was very nice and welcoming. My issue is the relative value to food quality ratio wasn't that good here. In short, they charge pretty high prices for a diner compared to some other nearby options and the food wasn't so awesome that I thought - well gee, I'd sure come here again given what I just paid. The French dip sandwich that was recommended to me was fine but not $20+ dollar fine. Fries were crispy but overall the sandwich itself lacked any real flavor and the meat was kind of dry. The good au jus gravy was what sort of saved the dish. The burger was average. Patty was ok but not particularly juicy or memorable. The price of the burger here was much higher than a nearby option that tasted better IMO so again, that's what was the sticking point for me. If the service was amazing I'd prob make this 3 stars but it was spotty and at times unresponsive. It wasn't particularly busy when I went on a Sunday morning so not sure what's going on there. Either way, I think it's better to consider other diner options if possible.

    Salmon creole with rice
    Jimmy W.

    I got the lunch special salmon creole and it came with chicken soup. What a big deal for $15. Portions were so big I couldn't finish the food and have something for snack later. The decor is also amazing. The staff is very friendly. The soup was just right and not too salty but the salmon over rice lacked a bit of flavor. The garlic bread was a nice touch too.

We're so glad we did, because this hole in the wall turned out to be a diamond in the rough. With a nondescript exterior and limited signage, Foodies Diner is easy to miss. It's in an area with mainly houses and mixed use commercial buildings, but the space inside is cozy. I especially appreciated the way the owner greeted everyone who enters and thanked everyone who leaves with notable warmth and small-town friendliness. The menu reads like a true diner - with all-day breakfast and brunch options, as well as standard lunch fare. We ordered a Santa Fe salad and an L.A. burger - which comes with avocado, bacon, onion, lettuce, and tomatoes. The burger was pretty standard, but having it delivered on a warm brioche bun feels a little bit special. The accompanying fries were also great - crisp and potatoey on the inside. The salad, on the other hand, was a near triumph. Served on a large platter, there was a small field of well-seasoned chicken, shredded cheddar, vegetables, avocado, pico de gallo, and - best yet - some pieces of warm, toasted pita. I even sprinkled some pieces of bacon from my burger into this salad, and wow did that take it over the top. I dug into this salad with fair gusto and would absolutely come back for it...which is saying something, since I wouldn't expect to fall in love with a salad at a diner. Service was fantastic, and we were pleased with how reasonably priced our meal turned out to be. There's plenty of parking - either right out front or in the lot further back.

This simple makeup of ribeye, cheese, onions, and fresh bread is what makes the sandwich so alluring to anyone. A great cheesesteak requires an even mixing of the parts. That means the cheese is melted and mixed with each crevice of the beef and onions. The bread encases the entirety. Every single bite should be consistent with the last and the next. However, in Jersey, one might think the best cheesesteaks only come from the boardwalks. Voted the Best Cheesesteak in Bergen County according to their website, my partner and I decided to pay a visit to Bob-O's Cheesesteaks, located on Main Street in Ridgefield Park, for lunch. Upon arrival, we were greeted by the staff at a simple and clean interior. Lighting is basic and bright with a row of full windows with single seating providing a more spacious feel as well as 4 tables indoors and 5 tables for outdoor dining during pleasant weather. Their big-size menu is featured on the wall with cheesesteaks, egg rolls, sides, and much more. We decided on the Bob-O Sandwich, Chicken Cutlet Sandwich, and Onion Rings. Food was prepared fresh per order. The sandwiches were really delicious and served hot. However, the peppers used on the Bob-O killed it. It looked like roasted peppers from the jar were used and not the fresh peppers sautéed with onion. The onion rings were hot, crispy with no oil or sogginess and didn't skimp. The portions were huge, and the price was comparable to the area. Service was fast and friendly. Despite this hiccup, we would give this place another try.
