The food was only subpar. Philly cheasesteak was extremely small and greasy. Onion rings were undercooked and soggy. The strawberry shake was good, but the paper straw fell apart.

they discriminated against me and informed me that i could not sit near the tv by the other costumers because i was “ eating out” but i was actually dining in. i feel disrespected and will never come back again the photos will show you who stopped me from sitting where i pleased when i went to dine in. They even told me it was a miscommunication but they still refused to let me sit where i please. i make all three of their paychecks every single day put together . How dear you tell me i can’t dine in? they don’t deserve to work in this setting by the way the treated a paying customer with his wife and kids

Everything else in Newark seems to be garbage but this place is not bad. Had the gyro.

We were waiting at Newark Terminal C before our flight back home and wanted to grab a quick bite to eat. We saw Garden State Diner had the best reviews of Terminal C and decided to give it a try. We had the turkey and bacon sandwich and oreo pancakes. Both were fresh and delicious Superb service- our server Gabiel was super friendly and a credit to Garden State Diner!

This was a great place to eat while waiting for my flight. Our server Jordan was amazing. He was always a step ahead with what we needed and always kept himself visible. The pancakes were perfect and the bacon was the right amount of crisp!

I waited for 10 minutes for someone to come to my table, even though the place was mostly empty. I ordered a coffee and a slice of cake. Another 10 minutes passed and I had to give up, or I would miss my flight. Saw another person also leaving for not being able to order after a while waiting.

Diner menu, good selection for airport. Hot food needs to be hot, especially soup and if they asked for a preference of how you would like the burger. Service made up for it though.

If this passes for the best food in terminal C than I will bring my own sandwich next time I am at this airport. Ordered a gyro at take out counter. Pita bread was burnt and hard to chew. Beaf was average in flavor. Calslaw was swimming in mayo. I am not a picky eater, but this is just not edible.
Sat down to eat. Server was slow and my order was taken by someone else. Then the original server comes over and hands me the check saying she was leaving and wanted me to pay and tip her for doing nothing before I got my food.

I chose to stop here because it was the best rated food in the terminal, and it was pretty decent, especially for being in an airport. TVs give you something to watch if you’re inclined, and the diner decor makes for a quiet and casual experience.The staff were friendly, and service was much faster than I had expected given they only had two servers for about 20 people; they have their efficiency down!The flying monkey milkshake was very good, and with an order of chicken and waffles the experience was complete. The waffle was interesting in a good way, and not quite what I expect from a Belgian waffle. Crispy in the edges and more like a pancake in the center. The chicken was moist and cooked well. It must have been sitting for a minute or two as it was very warm, but wasn’t as hot as one would expect coming from a fryer, coupled with the softer breading it was as nevertheless good. Some parts of the breading seemed to have caught, and a bit of burned oil flavor crept in. Not the cheapest spot to eat, but overall I’d come back and recommend this spot.

Horrible customer service. The lady that was opening today didn’t even greet us just basically told us to go and come back when diner opens. Then when we came back again she looked up and put her head down again like we were bothering her by trying to buy our food. Very uncomfortable never eating from here again. If you hate dealing with people at 5:00am then find another iob…
