    Had a great experience when I came here for lunch with my husband. The two staff members we came across were friendly and helpful. Never a had a poppy seed bun for a burger but we both enjoyed our meal. We will definitely return and try the sliders next time around. P.S. This is a cash only establishment.

    This place truly has such a nostalgic kinda' blast from the past kinda' feel to it. From the exterior of the building to its interior decor, this 1945 establishment is clean and updated but has kept its old-time feel. The owners are the cooks and are super friendly and funny from the door... they seem to treat everyone very personably and comically. Now here's the sad and hard part... and why we will never come back. The food was just okay tasting but the service from kitchen to table left a lot to be desired. The food was plated on tiny paper plates and the server was literally gripping our sandwiches with his bare fingers in the bread. Fries were served on large plates with his gingers literally in the fries. The bread top fell off two sandwiches on the table and he picked them up and placed right back on top of our sandwiches. It was gross and he didn't even know it and didn't even apologize for it. This was a terrible dining experience that I really wish didn't happen because I so wanted to like this place. I honestly can't tell if it was just a bad day or if this is the standard of service overall but my impression sadly is that this is just the way things are here. Very old-fashioned, but very little hygienic consideration.

    White Diamond Diner parking and approaches at corner of Central and Raritan Road, Clark.

    Very good, and unique burgers. Fresh poppy seed roll enclosure, and lean, flavorful patty. Fresh lettuce and tomato topped mine off. Access to parking looks tricky if you drive by going West on Central avenue. Take the narrow driveway immediately to the left of the small diner. If coming up from the south on Raritan Road, pull into the lot behind the diner. It is worth the trip, and it is an old-fashioned experience that still is worth it.

    To round out 2019, a double cheeseburger on a hard roll with extra pickles.

    They're not many places like this left. Growing up we had a White Diamond sited where the Wine Library is located. On my folks 'date night' dad would pick up a sack of cheeseburgers for us and the babysitter. How this spot has survived astounds me. Corner location, yards from the GSP, surrounded by mega billion dollar chain competitors-God bless them! It's damn tricky to enter and exit, but you're rewarded with terrific sliders. Prices have crept up, but I like to support and tip the independents. The poppyseed roll on my double California burger? Superb!

    One of the few breakfast and burger joints left in the area. Walk through the door and you'll travel backwards about 30 years. Back when burgers were on real buns, fries were NOT designer and the waitress calls everyone honey. Best burger or bacon and egg on a roll you can find anywhere! Stop in for some great food and a smile from Tammy.

    I'm always torn with places like White Diamond. I really love the ambiance of places like this-old school, greasy spoons. Love the pretty simple menu, the old signs, the grumpy cook, and the really nice woman taking orders. They were ranked as having the best burger in Union County so I had some expectations here. I went with some co-workers at lunchtime, on a Friday, so I also expected the place to be packed. Was pleasantly surprised the place wasn't too busy...and the very nice lady behind the counter wasn't frazzled. I ordered a chili-cheese dog and the #3 - a bacon cheeseburger with onion rings and a drink. The chili cheese dog was tasty, (they use Sabrett's and grill them) and the chili was good, but probably wasn't homemade. The onion rings were your normal, frozen and fried rings...so they were tasty, but weren't impressive. I chose poorly on the burger...not because it wasn't delicious, but because it was on a nice kaiser roll and I SHOULD have gotten a double. The burger was just a bit too small/thin for a single. I love that they put this on a Kaiser roll, but had I been here before I would have gotten the double. I broke down and had a second dog with mustard and kraut...the second dog got them the 4th star-very tasty. I wish this place offered shakes, but it's REALLY small. So I get it. I can't say they have the best burger, because I really don't have a lot to compare it to in Union County, but it was very good. They only take cash here-so come prepared.

    This place is open 24/7 as per staff when I called which is nice I was in the mood for a Taylor ham, egg and cheese ( pork roll) .... $3.80 sandwich Staff was super nice and attentive when I went in Inside was pretty clean and inviting for an old small diner . Much nicer than what I would have though Sandwich was so-so though .... not the best I've ever had Oh well... Maybe next time

    Note they aren't 24/7 no more !

    FYI they used to be open 24/7 now they open only to ten pm Monday thru Sunday. Standard good burgers not a lot of beef but good homemade burgers . We personally prey the small cheeses burger with the works ! The onion rings are standard but the Chesse fries are great . Note cash only spot too !

For starters we had the shrimp tacos!!! $17 for 2 but worth every penny! And they were by far The best I've ever had!! Very fresh toppings and perfectly seasoned. And I loved the green sauce they topped it with. For dinner my husband and I split the $19 classic burger and substituted the fries for a Caesar salad. We also subbed the cheddar cheese for the smoked Gouda and omg chefs kiss!! Ordered it medium and It was cooked perfectly! For drinks we had a coke soda $3.50 and an uptown girl (lychee martini) $14 Both were good. The servers were really nice. The vibe was laid back. The volume of the music was perfect.

    Estime's never misses!…read more We've been here more times than I can count because it's consistently that good. The food is always on point, the vibe is right, and the staff -- including the chef -- are genuinely kind and welcoming every single time. I usually get the Estime's omelet, but this visit I took it up a notch and added the Creole sauce on the side... then poured it right over the omelet. Absolutely incredible. The home fries are always perfectly seasoned and delicious, but what really took this visit over the top was the fried chicken. As someone from Detroit, where soul food is serious business, this is hands down some of the best fried chicken I've had in New Jersey. Crispy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. From the music and relaxed atmosphere to it being BYOB, Estime's is a great breakfast and brunch spot -- not a turn-up brunch, but a place you go for really good food, good energy, and a chill environment. The pancakes are HUGE and so good, and over the years we've tried multiple items on the menu and loved everything. Highly recommend. 10/10. One of our absolute favorite spots in the area -- we'll definitely keep coming back!

I called in for a big party, and they did an excellent job with the table-setting & location. Secondly, the food: Their apps are absolute winners. Our table got the Bavarian Soft Pretzel ($12) and the 12-piece wings ($22). Both came out hot and full-of-flavor! Both were excellent with a cold beer. For my main, I actually got a special which was not on their main menu. It was a Fajita Burger served with (you guessed it...) fajita fries. I added jalapenos for an extra kick. It was very good, but the buns are quite thick, so I actually just ate it with the bottom bun intact. The burger patty itself is quite thick which I enjoyed in this current smash-burger phase our world is currently in. Don't sleep on a pub burger. For dessert, it was one of our friends birthday, and as you can see --- they decorated it nicely! Not "they", sorry, Sara - our waitress - did! She was such an awesome server, and communicated very well. Awesome experience + awesome setting + awesome food! Thanks Paragon for doing what you do!

    Visited some friends recently who took us to eat dinner at Paragon Tap & Grill. Before going, they…read moreclaimed Paragon was a great place to get food. From the outside, it didn't look like anything special or a place to rave about but I quickly learned why it was all the talk with them. Since it was a Saturday night, they had a nice crowd and the place itself had a feel of both a sports bar and a brew pub. The one side was more of a sports bar type of feel (or setup) and the other half had more of a brew pub type of feel. After looking at the menu, I decided to go with the healthier choice so I ordered the Drunken Parm Sandwich. I wish I took a picture of the sandwich when it came out because it looked very good and like it was made fresh. Almost immediately, the server came over to me to let me know that they made me real chicken rather than the vegetarian chicken and said she would take it back for the vegetarian chicken. I opted to keep it since I knew there was a chance it would probably get thrown out. I took one bite of the sandwich and I have to say, it was one of the BEST chicken parm sandwiches I've ever had. It was piping hot and tasted fresh. From the chicken, to the sauce, to the bun, it all tasted fresh and practically melted in my mouth. It was a little on the salty side but aside from that, it was made to perfection. To top the night, as we were paying the bill, our server Maya (who was very friendly and tentative during our visit) handed me a take out container with the veggie chicken parm sandwich in it AND the general manager Greg came over to me to apologize for the mistake and said the veggie chicken parm was on the house. It's very rare for me that this happens. I wish I lived closer to Paragon so I can go back more often but believe me, I'll be back there for drinks and dinner next time I'm in the area. I highly recommend going there. Their service, food, and drinks will not disappoint.
