I apologize, OB Diner, I was unfamiliar with your game! After a disappointing trip to OB Diner back in 2023, I didn't think I'd ever come back. However, after seeing their new updates, I figured it was worth giving it another try--and I'm glad I did!
The quality of EVERYTHING at OB Diner has significantly improved since the last time I was there. The dining room is much cleaner and brighter, with new upholstery for the booths and nicer tables. Alongside the classic diner fare, OB now also offers unique dishes like Cannoli French Toast and Red Velvet Pancakes. The service is much better, too. I didn't have to wait 30 minutes to get my check like I did last time, and the employees were much friendlier and more personable.
I had the Cannoli French Toast, and it was unlike anything I've ever had before. The French toast was bartered and fried instead of grilled, giving it this unique, crispy texture--almost like a funnel cake from the boardwalk! It was piled high with fresh cannoli cream and chocolate chips, and I couldn't get enough! The portion of 6 thick french toast sticks was enough for my mom and me to share. Also, you can't come to the Jersey shore without trying a Taylor ham sandwich, so of course my sister and dad ordered that. I tried a bite, and it was so much better than the Taylor ham sandwich from the old OB Diner. This one was served on a thick, buttery roll with a whole stack of salty, fried Taylor ham. It was definitely better quality.
I am happy to report that the new OB Diner offers an updated, elevated experience with better food and service! read more
