“ Delicious no frills diner - classic menu. Service was great! ”
“ In the morning I visited a charming diner housed in a 1942 classic stainless steel O'Mahany model, which immediately set the scene for a nostalgic experience. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with friendly staff that made me feel right at home. I ordered the omelette, which was expertly prepared—fluffy and packed with fresh ingredients. It came alongside a generous serving of crispy, golden hash browns that added the perfect crunch to each bite. The combination of the delicious food and the retro diner ambiance made for a delightful meal. Whether you're in the mood for a hearty breakfast or just looking to enjoy a classic diner experience, this spot certainly delivers on both fronts. The overall vibe, paired with the attentive service, makes it a place I’d definitely return to. ”
“ Excellent traditional diner. It was nice to experience what a diner should be like. It brought back plenty of memories of a favorite diner of mine from many years ago. It also looked the same. These places are traditional and should be protected. The only way to keep them alive is to patronize them and keep them busy. If not, they will fade away. Forget the VIP and visit Miss America. Your stomach will thank you. ”
“ I love Miss America Diner. I had a salmon salad with fresh cut Atlantic salmon. Yum. I’ve had their full breakfast with blueberry pancakes. The food is delicious, the price is right, and the people who work here are wonderful. The customers are regulars. The Owners are the nicest. You can have a good meal and feel at home. ”
“ This hits every mark of what a diner should be, everything about this place brings comfort and warmthThe waitress asked my name and called me by it the whole meal, made me feel like I was home. You could tell it was a real staple of the neighborhood, felt like they knew everyone by first name. Got the french toast but sort of wish I got to try their pancakes, the blueberry looked delicious. ”
“ A cozy, traditional diner that's definitely worth a visit. It has a charming, family-friendly atmosphere where it feels like everyone knows each other. The food was delicious, and the servers were warm and welcoming. Yes, the decor is a bit dated, and the bathrooms could use an upgrade, but overall, I truly love this place. I’ll be sure to return whenever I’m in NJ. ”
