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.

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!

I had the Californian wrap. It was delicious. Chicken Avacado Tomato Lettuce It was hot and very tasty.

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.

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.

Fruity pebble waffle

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!

The gentlemen up front were very nice and patiently answered all my questions, and I had a lot of them. They recommended the #17, the Park sandwich. I added extra chili peppers because I make good decisions. And the #17 delivered. Packed with so much flavor, meat in every single bite, and you can taste that it was made on the spot. Nothing sitting around, nothing phoned in. Just a fresh sandwich that knows what it's doing. Inside feels like you stepped back a few decades, in the best way. Real mom and pop shop, everything fresh, great atmosphere. They even serve gyros. Got to talking with the owner, Ron. Very nice guy, and it was good to learn more about the place. I grew up in Chicago, going from a stupid young teenager to a stupid young adult, so I truly appreciate this kind of vibe and this kind of food. Also, I brought my dog Chestnut, and it turns out they have a sandwich named Chestnut. Chestnut has not stopped bragging about it. Will be back. Probably the next time my wife has a hair appointment.

While meandering around our local neighborhood, my husband and I stumbled upon this tiny diner and…read moregave it a try. 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.

4.5 but I'll round up. My kids loved their meals, we had grilled cheese, chocolate chip pancakes,…read morechicken caesar sandwich. Everything came out delicious and timely. The staff was super friendly. A nice choice away from the city.

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.
