Oakland Diner

Went here for the first time a few days ago and it was pretty good. I went with a few friends and we got the salmons and eggs as well as a waffle for the middle. Everything was really good and the staff were nice and helpful. Food came in 15-20 minutes and it cost around $25 per person. There is also a lot of parking as this place is really packed especially on the weekends.

The food, staff and environment are amazing. Monica was our server and she was such a doll. Everyone else was amazing, too. The pancakes (and the rest of the food) were DELICIOUS. Fast service and entertainment to read on the walls while you wait. The entrance is heated, too…lovely touch!

Love places like this! Sadly in NJ the quality of diners has gone down in general - which is why i was so pleased to find this gem in the heart of oakland. Even outside appearance already sets a positive vibe! Colorful, clean and bright. Inside - also very classy and authentic. Staff is nice and all smiles! They have liquor for those craving some buzz with their meal! Menu is a typical diner menu - not the encyclopedia one - but big and broad enough for anyone to find something of their liking. I opted for a Philly chicken wrap with sweet potato! Excellent meal! Tasted great - above expectations! Place was busy for a Thursday - that is a sign of a good restaurant!! Certainly will visit again when i am in the area! Thank you

This place is consistently great! I’ve been a few times, and my last visit on Monday was perfect—super quiet, no waiting, and a relaxed vibe. The platters were amazing, with perfect portion sizes, and the desserts are fantastic—you’ll definitely want to save room. What makes it really special is that it hits that sweet spot of good food at fair prices. It’s casual but still a little special, making it perfect for a midweek treat or just a laid-back meal with friends. Every visit has been enjoyable, and I keep coming back because the combination of food, portions, desserts, and pricing just works. Totally recommend if you want a solid, fuss-free dining spot with consistently tasty meals.

We really enjoyed our time here and will return. The weather was perfect to take advantage of the outdoor seating area, which is really nice this time of the year and definitely recommended if you can use it. The portions were fairly big, very tasty and felt like high quality ingredients, prices were average for the area (a bit more on the higher side for a diner, but I would call it an upscale diner). As fit for a diner - huge menu with a lot of options.
