    First time here and a nice little diner, place is clean and food was good. California Burger was pretty tasty Eggs, Benedict was good not great Will definitely come here again to try out other dishes

    Side of eggs over medium

    Hidden gem in the Highlands! Great food with attentive service in a classic diner setting. They're also family owned and operated, so make sure to give them a try on your next beach trip!!

    Pretty much your everyday diner, but maybe more on the dated side…read more Having read through some of the past reviews, I completely agree with other reviewers calling this "basic" and "standard" because there's really no other way to put it. The interior was typical of older diners - carpeting almost everywhere, endless number of booths and elderly patrons. We decided to dine here on a Saturday morning prior to hitting up the beach and walked in at around 11 AM. Unlike some other diners we had been to in Northern NJ, Kings Arm was relatively empty with a few tables occupied (by what looked to be locals) here and there. Our waitress approached us immediately after we sat down and she was very friendly and accommodating throughout our meal. As for the menu, it was as big of a menu as any diner we had ever been to - pages upon pages of breakfast items, dinner items, etc. It's what you would expect when you walk into a diner - a seemingly unlimitedddd number of things to choose from that will make your head spin. LOVEEEE IT. As for the food, it was pretty mixed from our end. My better half ordered the Pork Chop Milanese, while I got the Country Fried Steak with 2 eggs. For the kids, they had the Kids Spaghetti and Meatballs and Mac and Cheese. First, the Pork Chop Milanese. My wife actually reallllly, realllly liked it. Even though the pork chop looked dry, she thoroughly enjoyed it, which kind of surprised me. I had a bite of it and I thought it was just OK. As for my Country Fried Steak, I was verrrrrry disappointed in it. The steak wasn't very good and the white gravy just tasted and looked "old". Also, the home fries that came with my dish were not crispy and, in fact, very powdery. We also tried a little bit of the Spaghetti and Meatballs and Mac and Cheese, which were both alright. The spaghetti was al dente, but only came with ONE meatball, and the Mac and Cheese was totallllly Kraft. Overall, I expected a little more from Kings Arms, but, we took a risk and we missed on this one. Everything about the diner just said "outdated" and average to us. I can look past the decor typically as long as the food is good, but the food wasn't great, so the outdated decor kind of seemed worse than it probably is.

    Pretty basic diner. Saw a few older regulars otherwise pretty empty. Service was nice and friendly…read more Food was pretty standard, nothing to rave about. Ordered two omelettes. Asked for cheddar but it came out American processed like Velveeta. Waitress offered to exchange it. Wheat Toast was dry and cheap sandwich bread. A previous review mentioned old carpet, which is still there along with desserts that look dried out in the case. One plus was their pancakes, nice and fluffy. I would pass if their quality doesn't improve.
