Meadowlands Diner

Super clean and friendly staff. Lots of parking and prompt service. Delicious food and clean bathrooms.

Service is great, thanks Nicole! Food is okay. I ordered jalapeño poppers, and a classic Ruben with roast beef. The poppers were a bit chewy but tasted good. The roast beef was dry, and I didn't expect it to be open faced. Bread and fries are good. Slaw on the side was warm. They have a massive menu that could stand some shrinkage to allow a focus on quality. I will probably visit again to check out their breakfast skills 😉

Please don’t let this review be a reflection of our server. He was pleasant and attentive. But, the food was horrendous! Was literally like someone showed a young kid what it was supposed to look like and they did their best. Not enough meat to fill half the roll. Home fries were old and dusty tasting. Coffee tasted like burnt potting soil and our table was falling off the wall! I remember this place having excellent food, what happened?

It used to be good.... Reasonable prices, good food, friendly servers, freshly made baked items. Now? Shell of it's former self. Looks closed when it's open, baked goods are kept in the case until they're sold (so there's a good chance you'll get a week old cheesecake) servers who can be hit or miss, Hours that do not match what they provide online or on their door (not uncommon to be rushed out of there by a waitress who wants to leave early) and food quality way below what it used to be under former ownership. If you ever wish to witness what a slow decline of a diner looks like, this is it.

Just drove up for jets game tomorrow. Stopped here to eat. What a great place. My pancakes were divine. The cheesesteak was delicious. Server was excellent. Loved it all. Had the feel of a neighborhood diner with home cooked meals! What a welcome to New Jersey!
