    Tenafly Diner
    Hasan K.

    A classic dinner- the kind of place that I like very much for its architecture and style. This was our first time here on a visit to the town. The service was great and the menu extensive. The food (generous portions) could have been better. We had the avocado toast and a country breakfast with scrambled eggs. Tea and a latte to drink. Everything tasted ok but not tasty- a pity. The check came to over $40.

    Fast service. Great menu. Went for the the lunch special and it did not disappoint. Great deal. Great amount of food. Love the Cobb salad. I didn't like the matzah ball though.

    Corned Beef Hash & Eggs

    I've been here a few times now. Morning weekends can be busy but they are good about getting you seated. They have some specialty drinks and desserts with a wow factor. It's a classic diner with big portions and fair pricing. They also serve some alcoholic options. I've gone for later in the evening dessert as well as breakfast. Staff is friendly. A good local spot to frequent with a large menu.

    Firehouse Burger

    The server Lina (hope I got that right) is amazing and gives great service. We got the French toast sticks (it was a huge portion for a great price and tasty), the firehouse burger (was extremely dry and lacking flavor) and Oreo pancakes (not pictured but always delicious). Overall the food and service are good.

    California Fish Tacos- grilled cod fish
    Sellina Y.

    We ordered dinner via UberEats last night. It was our first time trying out this restaurant and I would definitely order again. I am pleasantly surprised with the grilled cod fish tacos. VERY filling as it is served with generous amount of fish. And the bonus side of plantains and rice with black beans are a plus. Plantains are my favorite side dish add-on to fish tacos. It would be nice to see plantains as a side dish option to purchase, at least that was an option the food app. This restaurant is running a promo on the app. Or if the is Buy one get one free on their cheesecake dessert. I highly recommend their fluffy mousse-like whipped cheesecakes, so delicious! They taste homemade and slices were large. The only reason why I didn't give this a 5 stars is bc the taco was on the drier end. It could had used complimentary sauces and lime/lemon. Also, to food was cold by the time my delivery arrived. Will definitely reorder and try the crispy fish version next time.

    Lively and loud diner on a Sat evening. It seemed child friendly since many group have children. Service was efficient, and food came out quickly. Got a Bronx Burger with "medium" patty, but the patty ultimately came out as well done. Burger was still thankfully ok.

    I used to come here as a kid weekly. This place has not changed a bit and i guess that's good and bad lol. Food has always been mediocre to good. Its a diner and im not much of a diner person but it definitely has everything you could want. The service is good.

    If you're looking for a hearty breakfast in the Tenafly Classic Diner is a go-to spot. The ambiance gives an old-school diner atmosphere; serves up all the classics and offers great value for your money. The breakfast menu has something for everyone. I'm a fan of their omelets. Standouts are the Greek omelet with spinach and feta and the Spanish omelet with tomatoes, onions, and peppers. The staff are also friendly. If you're in Tenafly, the Classic Diner is the perfect place to start your day with a hearty, affordable breakfast.

    Came here on a Wednesday afternoon. My friend suggested this spot and it was perfect since I was in…read morethe mood for fried chicken. Once you enter, you place your order and pay at the register. Someone will call your order when it is ready. I ended up getting chicken wing lunch special ($10) which comes with three wings and two sides. For my sides I got the collard greens and Mac & cheese. The portion for the sides is really big and for $10, it's a really good meal deal. The wings were solid, crispy and juicy. Overall, solid meal. I will be back to try the jerk chicken lunch special. I wouldn't say go out your way to get the wings but if you're around the area especially during lunch hours and want soul food, this is the place. * Free parking in back * Metered street parking * Good lunch special deal * a lot of dessert options

    THE GOOD ----------------…read more+ Food served here is solid. ++++ Lunch Special BBQ Chicken with Caggage & Potatoes + Jerk Chicken with Fried Plantains & Mac & Cheese were all tasty. Lots of good flavors on all of it. ++++ Lunch Specials have good variety to choose from + 2 sides - fried chicken, jerk chicken, baked chicken, BBQ chicken, etc. ++++ Lunch Specials are $10 (as of January 2026), but some items are $1ish more. + Noticed that the dinner special portions are definitely A LOT larger, but they are also pricier. + Plenty of seating inside. + Private parking lot in the back of the restaurant. THE NOT SO GOOD ---------------------------- - Nada. MIXED THOUGHTS --------------------------- = Nada. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = Dined from 12-12:30 on a Friday afternoon and it was empty inside when we arrived, however, it did get a little busier after we began eating.
