    The service was excellent. The feed was presented well and tasted delicious. Plenty of lettuce, tomatoes, cumber and onions. Salad also included olives and a boiled egg.

    I've been coming here for years and it still hits the spot. Huge classic diner menu, diner decor and a glass case full of various cakes when you walk in makes this a truly classic New Jersey experience. The breakfast is always great. This time around I got a bowl of matzah ball soup which was quite tasty as well. The downside here is the prices. It's kind of insane to spend $30+ per person for breakfast and some coffees, especially in this area. Our server also got lost a few times as well.

    If you need somewhere on your way to the shore this isn't a bad place to stop but don't expect any bells and whistles. Very typical diner fare without the pizazz of a really cool diner. Service was lackluster but not the worst I ever had, I wouldn't seek this place out but wouldn't avoid going back if it was convenient.

    It's always a good sign when the diner menu is 12 pages to look at !!

    Classic jersey diner. Lots to choose from on the menu. My Florentine chicken wrap was stuffed to overflowing ( could only finish half) Cole slaw was crisp & tangy & fries were perfect. Fast friendly service. Nice to see a classic diner still going strong.

    Came here with my family and we were all very pleased with the service and quality of our food for a diner. Our waitress was really nice and our food came out fast and fresh. I got the early bird special which was a good deal. Will definitely be back.

    Shore Diner Salad

    I enjoyed a nice salad with chicken at the Shore Diner last night. It's called the "Shore Diner Salad". I have to admit that getting a salad at a diner sounded a bit risky to me, but it actually was pretty good. For $19 I had high expectations. The salad was pretty good sized enough so that I spread it out over two meals. The salad comes with iceberg lettuce, tomatoes, green, apple, caramelized, walnuts (but they weren't really caramelized), cucumbers, an egg, and other fruits. It comes with a choice of salad dressing, and I chose the raspberry vinaigrette. I thought it went very well with the salad. There were two small cups of dressing which were plenty. There was a good amount of chicken on it. The chicken itself was nicely seasoned and it was an enjoyable accompaniment with the salad. Not exactly a five out of five but a four out of five.

    Ordered cheesesteak wrap which came with fries but I upgraded to sweet potato fries. The smallest portion I ever saw. I asked the waitress if it was a mistake she said no that's what they do. The food was average at best. The bathrooms were filthy and smelled. The standup urinals are starting to have green mold growing on the chrome, gross!

    Half of the best breakfast sandwich ever!

    Clean, vast menu selections, fresh delish food, friendly service equal an excellent dining experience! A good breakfast was the goal this day. While basic, a mediterranean omelette with breakfast potatoes were my choice and it did not disappoint. Anytime of day, they're consistent.

    Visited this diner with a friend, and I think it's definitely one of the best in the area! The inside was very clean. Our server was very nice and attentive. I got a chocolate chip belgian waffle, and my friend got an egg breakfast with home fries- we both enjoyed our food. Coffee was pretty good too! We'll definitely come back.

    After going down the road to Story Book Land with the kids, we needed to eat and this diner was open the latest of any diner in the neighborhood (it closes at 10pm and everything else closes at 9). We started off with soups - minestrone (5.25 with Entree) and French Onion ($8 with entree). Both were great! Then, we told the waiter we were sharing a chicken gyro. The kitchen was so classy and wonderful to wrap each half put half the sandwich and half the fries on two separate plates. So classy. They also have breakfast, deli sandwiches and entrees. They have salad combos that come with a soda and dessert which looked great but it was late so we didn't have dessert or coffee. The dark haired server (maybe his name was Adam?) was very professional! The food came out super fast but the fries were well done upon request and everything was perfect. We'll surely be back when I'm in the area!

    Six star service by Abby, five star menu and three star food made for an awesome experience. Let me start with the menu, if you can't find what you like here you won't find it anywhere. Jersey diners have an ability to offer menus that have unlimited options. and this diner delivers! And even customizes. We had a small family gathering and were in a bit of a rush to catch our flight back to Florida. Abby did what it took to get our orders in and made some very welcome suggestions. She stayed on top of our meals to make sure we got them with plenty of time to enjoy. And enjoy them we did. Couple of pointers, the portions are huge! Next they have one heck of a nice little bar tucked away in a room off the dining room. We have family buried right nearby so from time to time we visit them at the local cemetery. And this is where we come to share memories. And make new ones. Again I want to send kudos to Abby. Superstar server who truly gets it.

Our awesome server was Mary Ann with an M ....she gave us friendly and warm service and she was very attentive. Our food came out hot and was delicious - - i had another waffle, but this time with just bananas - -and hubby had scrambled eggs and hash browns covered in cheese - - and he LOVED every bite as did I. And the coffee is just perfect! JJ's is a bright light and such a heavenly oasis. Everyone should be as happy and positive as the people that work at JJ's. They have worked hard to provide this consistently good food and service over the years. We will make it a point to be back again next time we are in town.

    Hi there Yelpers. This counts as the fourth time coming to this diner to enjoy their breakfast. On…read morethree of four occasions I enjoyed - thoroughly - their Sunriser. That's creamed chipped beef over toast with two eyes any style but I get mine poached or over easy accompanied by grits. Yes. Grits. Which explains my finally trying their sausage and gravy. Quite traditional dish I'm told by a Floridian friend who I had join me this past week while she visited. We agreed that the server was allowing us the time we needed to catch up with the right amount of follow up. I'd have liked to have my water refilled one more time. But that was on me for not stopping to ask as she poured another cup of coffee for my friend. I've had their coffee and it's delicious. My friend enjoyed the international omelette. She enjoyed it. The diner has its own parking lot with plenty of parking. The inside is eclectic but with definite typical Jersey diner vibes and the counter and stools to go with it. I've sat at the counter and the service is cordial and inviting. Quick too when necessary. Enjoy if you are coming to or from ACY as it's close and you'll feel satisfied either arriving into the area before heading to AC or returning home. Enjoy!

    Ok I read through all of the comments on poor service here. As we are sitting here finishing our…read morelunch, I have seen 2 employees- the hostess and our server. Our server, Kelly, was super busy, doing everything from bussing , taking orders, serving food, checking in on everyone, and taking care of payments. This woman was moving! She doesn't have time to sit and chit chat. She's busy making sure we got our food and it was served hot. Speaking of the food! I had the gyro with fries and my husband had the chicken fried steak with scrambled eggs and home fries. He said it was delicious and the gravy was homemade. I took a bite of his homefries and they were exactly what I like about them. Crispy, seasoned, and cooked perfectly. Kelly recommended the gyro and it was perfect. My salad was yummy with Kalamata olives (YUM), and feta that was softer- not overly dry like a lot of places serve. It was stored correctly- the way my Macedonian family did. The pita was fresh, the meat was juicy, and my fries were big steak fries that came out piping hot. I honestly have nothing negative to say about our meal or service. When a server is waiting on an entire side of a restaurant and your food is still served hot, that's something to pay attention to. Don't complain that a server didn't sit and chit chat with you when they are clearly busy getting your order. On top of that, it's a super clean restaurant, including the bathroom. We'll be stopping by on our way home from the shore!
