Will return. Don't let small parking lot by flooding river fool you. This place cares about customers. Quick service and friendly staff. Nothing negative to say with 1st visit.

Don't order the Greek salad. It was a garden salad. Almost no feta, no grape leaves, no Greek olives, horrible dressing. Rude waitress. I will never go back!

The guy in the front, who I'd assume is the owner/manager, is extremely rude. I went inside because they forgot hot sauce for wings, and pickle for my club. He rudely told me that I had to ask for a pickle although it's under the club description. I even had to show him on my phone the description. He gave me such a hassle about my wings as well. I just wanted a cup of hot sauce and a pickle, I don't understand why he was so aggressive and rude. The whole experience was super unprofessional.

I tried something I’ve never had . It was Stir fried veggies with orange chicken and I’m so excited I have enough for lunch tomorrow lol thank you for bringing something great to this town ☺️

This diner has been my family's fav for the longest. We decided to visit after such a long time, and as expected, they never disappoint. And if I may add, the turkey cream soup as recommended by Aisha, was really good. Thanks again Aisha.Vegetarian options: Though I'm not vegetarian, but I did see a section on the menu for that.Kid-friendliness: Kids menu, and high chairs for those who need them.

The food was unbelievable, especially since the prices were so reasonable. I had the pancakes ,eggs, and bacon, with fries instead of home fries. Everything was perfect, except the bacon was a little hard. I am very picky about pancakes, and these were delicious, absolutely perfect. I told my family about it, and they've also been going there now, and they love it. I will definitely go back! ?

Great food. I can see why they're always busy but when I went inside there was plenty of space.Vegetarian options: They have plenty of vegetarian options. They can customize almost everything.Wheelchair accessibility: It's really good. They have a ramp and stairs.

What a great spot to stop in for a lovely breakfast! Ended up this side of NJ and needed to kill some time and fill up - picked the right place. The service was excellent and everyone was kind and polite. Not to mention the food came out very quickly which I appreciate! Next time I’m around I’ll definitely pop back in and try lunch!

I had a good time with my family, but we felt really rushed & they also got my order wrong. I requested no mayo on my BLT but still gave it to me with the mayo. I ate it, not knowing but and was really surprised, but because we felt so rushed, I felt like asking them to remake it wasn't even worth it.Idk if I'll come back
