Went once and the food and service were great so decided to go again a week later and had the complete opposite experience. Food and service were subpar. Our waitress was way too chatty and sarcastic to the point of being rude. She was joking around with my son and when he went to say something to her, she put her hand completely over his mouth! How gross and disrespectful! When the food came out, my son's came much much later than everyone else's and when I started eating mine, I noticed a hair. I quietly told our waitress so as to not cause a scene and she apologized but said it was probably a fuzz from a towel. I said "no. It's definitely a hair." (And certainly not one of my hairs!) she brought it back to the kitchen and they made me a new one. Instead of owning up to it or just apologizing - accidents happen, I get it - she continued to try to tell me it was a fuzz! read more

Delicious food! Friendly service! Definitely recommend and will be back. I especially enjoyed the falafel. Cozy environment yet spacious.

Nice little family run diner with some Egyptian inspiration, which I love. Food is what you'd expect but things were cooked pretty well. The Shakshouka tasted a bit like Tostitos salsa but who am I to tell you what it supposed to taste like. Schwarma omelette off menu was very good. read more

Westfield Station Cafe is truly a Westfield gem! The food was absolutely amazing I enjoyed it so much that I had to go back the following week with my boyfriend. Everything was delicious, and you can really feel the love that goes into the food. The owner, Ash, and his family's hospitality were outstanding. Highly recommend! read more

Let me first say, this place is quite good overall... just fell flat in some specific areas that hurt the overall dining experience. From the door, the hostess/waitress seemed angry or bothered. No smile, no eye contact and certainly no friendliness. But the ambience is comfortable, bright, clean and open. Outdoor seating available on this corner establishment on the very desirable main commercial street of Westfield NJ. The food is affordable priced and has a diverse selection of breakfast and lunch items (open until 4pm). As for the taste, this Egyptian based has some delicious Mediterranean based foods such as their amazing falafel dishes. However, their 'Greek salad' lacked feta cheese and had not a single typical stuffed grape leaf in it. The lentil soup was flavorful but very thick. All in all, the food was either really good in parts or just okay in other parts. Not sure how to feel about this place overall. read more

The restaurant did not live up to my expectations for a good breakfast place. I read the reviews and most are glowing with praise. Onthe positive side,the wait staff was nice and knowledgeable. On the food side, not so much. I ordered a cup of tea (lukewarm when it came) a mushroom brie omelet ( cooler than lukewarm when it came) and white toast (cold when it came). Folks you have got to do better! read more

I stopped by for breakfast on a Sunday morning. The restaurant wasn't too busy and we were seated right away. Our server was friendly and attentive. I had the western omelette, with a fruit salad and toast. We shared a short stack of pancakes. Everything was very good! They have a solid selection of breakfast foods. The restaurant started to getting busier during our meal but the service was still very good. I would definitely return. read more

Floor under tables were dirty. Had to ask for a clean fork twice. AC not really working , warm & uncomfortable Service was just okay Food nothing special could have had anywhere else but there. This is now on my never again list. read more

As always, another fantastic breakfast. If you like tomatoes, must try the Shakshuka with poached eggs as a local specialty. My son's Mexican omelette was great as well. Always a friendly staff and pleasant experience. read more

Good options for breakfast or lunch. Menu consists of mainly American and Turkish options. I didn't have high expectations given that diverse menu, but the Turkish food was actually very good. I ordered the lamb shawarma which was delicious, and really authentic. Lamb was really flavorful and tender. And the sauce that they added was great. It would have been better with a side of fries or even salad, but even without that I felt that the price was reasonable. Also tried some of the Shakshuka. My first time having this dish. I found it also to be really flavorful. We came on a weekday lunch and it was fairly busy but we were able to get a table. Food was served quickly. Overall its probably a high 4 star joint, but I'll upgrade to 5 star since I live within walking distance. read more

Our first time at this dinner. Food is very good , however service is lacking. Only 3 waitresses for a very busy establishment. If they can improve on service , will be a successful business. Hired more people, those girls were doing their best but impossible to keep up with the demand read more

Interesting menu w several Mediterranean dishes not offered in other restaurants or cafe. Tasty meals in a relaxed atmosphere. Good service; friendly staff. read more

Delicious food, friendly staff, clean and comfortable. The menu accommodates all types of dietary preferences.

Looking for a brunch spot with amazing food? This is a very casual place basically an upscale diner. Booths and tables inside a few outdoor tables which were not available so we waited a few minutes as it was crowded at 2pm on a Sunday. Started out with the coconut pancakes to share, and then each ordered an entree. The poached eggs were amazing, the Egyptian sausage and eggs were great and the pita bread was delicious too. Everything was so yummy. So much to choose from that we will have to go back. We ended up ordering the Turkish coffee to share and complete our experience. All you need is a few sips of this if you're looking to wake up. Side note- We brought our wine but felt uncomfortable drinking as it is basically forbidden in the Islamic culture. So you can bring alcohol but they don't have glasses or opener. Coffee or water is the way to go! read more

What a breakfast!!! I had the Shakshuka special with sausage and feta, and wow was it amazing. The flavors were insanely good and the service was even better. If you're looking for a great meal with an array of different menu items, this is the place to try! Don't forget to try their Turkish coffee if you're a fan of strong coffee. I look forward to trying something new next time. read more

Came in very hungry! I couldn't be more satisfied with the food and service! I came in and ordered a cappuccino served very well. Perfectly made, for me, it was the right amount of milk to coffee ratio. Having never tried Shakshuka, this was quite a first time experience! I loved the flavor combinations, with the peppers, tomatoes, onions, and Egyptian Sausage. The poached eggs were cooked and seasoned exceptionally as well! Do not hesitate at all to come and try anything on the menu as it was a really pleasant experience! read more

Great food and atmosphere. Feels like you are part of the family when you visit. A definite recommend.

Spotted this little cafe on the way back from a Sunday morning hike, and thank goodness we decided to stop by! They had a wonderful outdoor dining setup outside the store, perfect for a beautiful not-too-chilly fall morning. Started with coffee and the cappuccino was absolutely perfect. It even came with a free biscotti on the side. For all you Turkish coffee lovers, that was also on the menu! Originally came for brunch, but we were so tempted by the Mediterranean lunch options. The Chicken Shwarma Omelet was the perfect combination of both -- and probably THE BEST omelet I've ever had. The shakshuka also looked amazing, I'll have to come back for that. Huge portions and super reasonable prices. I've been recommending it to anyone who goes hiking in the area :) read more

Great food! Service was amazing and the food was all in house and freshly made. I will be recommending to friends.

Nice menu, good service. Food is very good and wait staff is attentive. Went for lunch with a friend and we were able to stay and talk.

I came because the reviews were good on Yelp. I feel like I got scammed because the food was nasty and the establishment was dirty. The waitress sat me down at a table that wasnt cleaned and she didn't even bother wiping it down. The food came out super fast but I can see why..... NASTY AF. Pancakes tasted like they were made from store-bought instant powder. The homefries were completely bathing in salt and pepper. I was supposed to get bacon but I don't know what the fuck I got instead. I complained to the waitress and she only said "sorry" so.... they don't give a fuck? When I first entered the restaurant, I saw someone else complain about the overseasoning of salt and pepper in their food. What a major red flag. I should have left as soon as I entered. DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!!! STAY AWAY!!!!! read more

This is a great little café/diner right next to the Westfield train station. We are fairly new to Westfield and went there for the first time a couple of weeks ago. We were wowed by the wonderful customer service of our waitress, Cindy. She was very attentive, provided great order suggestions and also brought over their delicious housemade hot sauce to go along with our eggs. All the food we ordered was wonderful, including the short stack of chocolate chip pancakes, the egg and cheese sandwich on a hard roll, and the Florentine omelette. The chef (maybe owner?), Ash even stopped by later on towards the end of our meal to check on how everything was. We meant to write this review right after that, but then never got around to it and when we went back today a few weeks later, we realized how much we needed to write this up! This time Kirsten and Cindy both helped us out, and Cindy remembered us by our orders from the last time even though we had only been here one time- very impressive and shows a great attention to detail and customer service. Ash came by also, and it was clear he remembered us as well. The food was fresh and tasty yet again (we got the French toast, egg and cheese sandwich, and Greek omelette this time) and the prices are great. This place is a gem and is definitely becoming one of our go-to spots! read more

I'm just baffled by all the high ratings this place has got. Extremely misleading cause the food is at best average. I am really angry that I spent my time and money on extra greasy fries, very salty salad and rubber like chewy Turkey bacon omelette. The staff is very nice but that's pretty much it! read more

a google search for best restaurant for breakfast with kids brought me here and it was a perfect find. food was delicious and great service.

Cool little place to eat. Great tasting perfectly prepared meals. Went for the shahshuka which was really good. The turkish coffee was a bust for us. Could be the waitress didnt prepare it right as it was two tiny cups half full with coffee grounds and a little sip of actual coffee. Wouldnt bother with the turkish coffee again if thats how its served. There is paid street parking out front. Dont let the server scare you when you walk in,we walked in and she looked at us like "eff, more people" we sat down looking at each other like are they mad customers just came in? It felt kind of awkward. It got more normal as time went by read more

This location has been the kiss of death for several previous restaurants, including multiple reincarnations of the original 1950's Westfield sub shop, Duke's, a short-lived pizzaria, and a Pakistani restaurant which flopped just like Baboo's on "Seinfeld". Hopefully, this family-run American/Egyptian luncheonette will succeed. A friend and I gave it a shot for a weekday lunch. We ordered several basic dishes--hummus, baba ganoush, falafels, and kefta kabob. I asked if the gyro was carved to order from a rotisserie spit, but was told that it is pre-portioned, so I passed on that. The french fries are straight from the freezer. The kefta kabob was dried out and rubbery. Who knows how long that was sitting around. Admittedly, the flat, unappealing-looking falafels tasted better than they looked. The hummus was just OK, the baba ganoush could have used more garlic and less ground black pepper. The server tried to take my plate away while I was still eating, which always annoys me. No compelling reason for me to come back here, so, three stars, an average rating. read more

Second time here with family. Absolutely fabulous. Freshly prepared food - no nasty aftertaste. Just perfection. Coffee was strong, hot and plentiful. Mint Lemonade - fresh and not tart. Chocolate Chip Pancakes, French Toast and Chicken and Waffles. Lovely brunch. Staff is attentive and hustle. Owner/Chef works hard to deliver tasty food that is lovely to look out prior to your first bite. Cute and cozy inside with 4 lovely tables outside. Run don't walk - go next weekend. We are planning our next visit already - we wonder what to eat. But we know our choice will be exactly memorable. read more

We stopped by for a quick breakfast the other morning and as usual the food was delicious. I had the French toast special with homemade lemon curd and fresh strawberries! My wife had the avocado toast with a fried egg on it and the avocado was fresh and the portion was huge! Our friend had the omelette and with potatoes. What I love about this place is they have the standard breakfast and lunch items but they have a Mediterranean & middle eastern flare with specials and other menu items offering a great variety of flavors! read more

I'd come back here again and again for the Shakshouka but offering falafel for breakfast, that literally deserves the title Breakfast of Champions (also a great read by Kurt Vonnegut). Food is wonderful, staff was great. read more
