Still great food and friendly service. Recently I've been ordering to pick up breakfast or lunch. While it's better to dine in. The servings are about the same anyway. read more

Once again I had a positive experience visiting this location. Their menu is huge so it would take someone over 15 minutes to read it all but on the positive side you'll definitely find something you enjoy. This time I dined in and had a bacon cheeseburger deluxe. Burger was cooked as requested, fries were delicious as usual and even the bacon was cooked as requested (they asked me if I wanted them crispy and they were super crispy). Our waitress was friendly and attentive but the elderly lady who works at the front who's also the cashier could be a little more friendly. They have a small parking lot but there were no available parking spots though there's metered parking in front of the restaurant (make sure to feed the meter!). When we arrived on a weekday at 12pm the place was packed but by 1pm most people were gone, so apparently the busy hour is between 11am and 12pm. read more

---------- I came back and I got a burger. The one that was the "prime" and more expensive. It was super dry, like a hockey puck. I doubt it was prime cut meat. Also the Mac and cheese on top was also dry like it was sitting around for a while. And the bun was dry! It was such your average potato bun and it was toasted to a crisp. The flavor was good for the burger but a shame it was so dry and tough, The fries where very good though and cooked well. My husband got the Greek omelete like my friend did and loved it. Reducing stars to a 3 for the burger experience. read more

My favorite breakfast place in the area. A classic, authentic, long standing, well run NJ Diner. Best omelettes in Bayonne. I've tried several of them I go here all the time. Fresh home fried potatoes. Food always comes out quick and hot. Service is excellent- servers are always kind and efficient. Plenty of seating. Parking lot in the back. read more

We were a party of 4 coming in on a Sunday morning for brunch. It's my first time coming in, and as soon as I walked in the door, I felt the racial difference. A mix of white Americans and black folks, we were one of the few Asians here. I understand that it is a busy Sunday, but we weren't greeted by either the host or the server. After waiting for about 5 minutes, we were seated in a large table. Our server is really rude coming in with "oh, why are you guys seated in a large table when you're only a group of 4?" It was a 5 table top. My friend asked "what type of teas do you have?" had been met with "what type of tea do you want?" There was a lot of waiting for even the smallest items. We had to constantly flag down our disgruntled server for a refill of our water, to get our orders in, etc. it became ridiculous at this point. Food was slow coming in, when I spoke to the server- it was very rude comments or just "I know", constantly have to flag down our server while all other servers were accommodating to their tables. Food was bland, a lot of pepper & salt couldn't make the potatoes taste good. Overall, it wasn't a great experience. I wouldn't come here again. read more

so i came tonight after a long days work, and just grabber chicken fingers and fries. so basic, asked for side sauce for the chicken fingers and cole slaw and pickle . the meal was alright. nothing great nothing to complain about .. its fingers and fries so you cant really screw it up . now I've been in the restaurant business for 25 years plus so when i go my check sand saw i was charged $3.50 for coleslaw and a pickle at a diner where it is included in almost every meal i question the man taking payments. Wait staff was perfectly fine. the Man taking the checks said " its not included and if you don't like it you can go some where else " with that said it did not take me long to realize that i would never spend $0.01 here ever again. In all my years of being in restaurants i have never seen any one speak to a customer like this... I am beyond insulted and have no issue never spending my money or sharing my poor experience with friends family and community that i just encountered. They're are plenty of other options around and if anyone wants a good meal and not to be insulted i highly suggest going anywhere but to this place. This manager was so beyond rude he even followed me out the door screaming go some where else.. I would never step foot in this place again based solely on how rude the customer service was. !!! food - decent _ ambiance _ decent its a diner and what's expected service _ average _ again its a diner and wasnt looking for above and beyond _ Hospitality nis a big FAT ZERO with the most rude check out person that i ever encountered... i hope my 5000 followers see this too Lighthouse is a ZERO read more

I ordered breakfast from this place and they failed to give me cream and sugar. I enjoy my coffee with my breakfast. The food was good it was my coffee that was the problem. Who sends coffee without cream and sugar. When I called to complain the waitress did not offer resolution. They couldn't sent someone with my creme and sugar. they ruined my breakfast and should rectify the situation. They offered no resolution .they should've sent me another coffee with the cream and sugar but no nothing. I will be disputing the charge since lighthouse doesn't want to rectify the issue. With another coffee made correctly.$25 wasted on what was supposed to be my breakfast. shame on you lighthouse. Do better read more

I usually don't eat breakfast, but today I felt I wanted to try something different so I went to this place and here's how it went ... Upon arrival there was a lady at the front by the register and I must say she's NOT very pleasant . I say good morning and she tells me to sit on the other side by the booths . Still NOT a very pleasant person for first thing in the morning. Once at my table this lovely waitress (a much older lady ) comes to greet me and take my order , what a difference , she should be the one greeting people . She takes my order and not even 10 minutes later I was served a very nice , freshly made and warm breakfast . The food was really good for a small town dinner , cooked to perfection and you could tell everything was made to order and it wasn't just sitting there pre cooked . Than I asked the waitress for the check and walk to the register to pay and just as when I went in the not so pleasant lady charged me and I left . I don't know who she was but if she's the owner she definitely needs to learn to be more friendly . Aside from that , if you want a nice warm breakfast I would definitely recommend. read more

Stayed at an airbb close by and this was highly suggested by the owner of the airbb who's a local. I came in around 1045am but was wanting more of a lunch the waiter gave me both menus. Everything looked great, most people we're ordering breakfast. I went with the tuna sandwich which was really good and more on the savory side- it came with slaw and a pickle everything was perfect. I ordered waffle fries and they were amazing! read more

My boyfriend and I got French toast, corn beef hash, pancakes with a side of Taylor ham. Fairly decent price for how much the portions are and filling they are. The pancakes had a good texture to it, French toast was cinnamony with the a slight crisp on the outsides. The corn beef hash was not oily but was super good with the potatoes! read more

My dad and I decided to stop by the Lighthouse Restaurant on a Sunday afternoon for a quick brunch! Ambiance: You definitely get "diner vibes" from this spot. It was a bit busy given that it's was a Sunday afternoon but we were seated within a minute. There's booth seats as well as regular tables towards the back. Looking at the restaurant from the outside you would think it's small but it's pretty big. Food: The menu is endless! If you want a bit of everything definitely come to this spot. I decided to order the 2 stack of pancakes along with the farmers omelet which came with home fries and toast. The food came out within 15-20 minutes and boy was it good! Price: Farmers omelet was $10 and a short stack was $5.50. It was enough food to fill me up and take some home. Parking: They have a small lot at the back of the restaurant but when it's busy it looks like it is a pain to get out of. To avoid that I just parked on the street. Service: Our waiter was great! Attentive, always came by to refill our coffee and make sure we were okay. The reason why I gave this spot 3 stars is because upon walking in, we were not greeted by the lady at the cash register. Also, when leaving and paying as well. Bayonne is full of small/local businesses and being a small/local business you should show your customers you care. When bringing the check to the counter we were just stared at and when we paid and was getting ready to leave we didn't even get a "have a great day," or "thank you for coming." I kinda want to give this spot a 4 but I'm just not a fan yet. Since I live in the area I may pop in again since the food was great but hospitality wins me every time. Will I be back? Yes, and I will provide an updated review! read more

The Lighthouse restaurant menu has a little bit of everything for everyone 's taste. Each visit the menu expands and loved every meal I've had. The service was great and the servers were right on top of our table with refills and just randomly checking on us.The restaurant is a very friendly restaurant with lots of great meals and drinks . The chocolate raspberry cake was delicious. It's amazing how delicious the food was and the ambiance is amazing and great for everyone! Dawn Grzeszczak read more

FOOD POISONING! We ordered breakfast for delivery. Pancakes come with syrup and butter in the small cups that the restaurant prepares themself. The butter was sour, unfortunately I put the butter over the whole pancake and did not notice until I had already eaten a couple of bites. It was hard to tell at first because I had put syrup but when I tasted a tiny bit of butter by itself and it was very sour. I instantly felt sick from the idea of sour butter. 24 hours later I had all the symptoms of food poisoning. read more

Our go to diner in Bayonne! It is pretty quiet here even on Sundays which blows my mind because I think they deserve way more recognition than they get! I have tried out their Belgian waffle with Ice cream and bananas as well as their eggs, bacon and home fries breakfast. My fiancé has had the Veggie omelet as well as their burger which he really enjoyed! We have both dined in and ordered delivery and both services have been quick. I definitely recommend this spot if you want a quick bite. read more

We ordered some breakfasts and a fettuccine plate. The breakfast meals came out in 10 minutes and were fine. After an hour we told them we didn't want the fettuccine anymore since we haven't received it. The manager refused to take it off the bill. So we had to wait an extra 15 minutes for it to come out. This is not the way to take care of your customers or to do business read more

I have not had any issues, I have had breakfast three times and lunch this weekend. It is always packed and loud but we are always seated quickly, food served hot and in a timely manner. The flavors are decent, typical diner food and the service is courteous.

Lighthouse diner is really good. I don't think the 3.5 star rating this place has is deserved. Trust me, the overall rating of this diner should be 4.5. Most of the meals I've had here are great, including the chicken francaise, soups, triple deckers, moussaka, burgers, etc. the only meals I didn't like were the Reuben and the chicken cordon bleu. Otherwise, this is a great place to dine in or order out. read more

Classic Greek/New Jersey Diner right in the middle of town in Bayonne. This place has been a local standard in this city for a long time. Rarely will they blow you away with what they have on the menu but I will praise the consistent level of service and quality that the Lighthouse brings to the table. Daily specials include rotating soups as well as different Italian and Greek/Mediterranean options. My go to at this establishment is either the roast beef or the French Dip(which are alarming similar I get it). The roast Beef has always been fresh and rarely if ever too dry. The same type of beef will be going in the French dip(pictured with this review) however the bread is lightly toasted and buttered with garlic to give it another level of flavor. The fries come plentiful but are average at best and the au jus comes in a big enough serving to gravy up every bite. Loses a star based on the weird delivery hours. They do not deliver for breakfast or lunch and are only available from 3pm to 8pm Monday through Saturday. read more

I don't have much to say because I couldn't even try the food. Why would I? The service from the get go was horrible. We were told we can sit anywhere, that's fine no complaints, then we're handed the menu by a gray short haired woman who hands us all our menus in just a pile plopped onto the table. Not handed out, but just tossed on there. We get no less than 30 seconds to even grab the menus, to then be asked what we want to drink as if we've been there before. Then In the ten seconds it took us all to open to the drinks, she threw her hands up and said, "Whatever I guess, I'll wait." We just opened the menus. Needless to say our party of 5 left after that and went looking for a new restaurant. Please anywhere else would be better service, but my recommendation is Figuritas, only 10 blocks up and my god deliciously cheap food, along with an actually wonderful hostess. read more

Today my wife ordered for me a pizza burger. how dare any establishment to serve such a disgusting meal.the sauce on tasted like it came from a can. One bite i took it apart and discovered how much oil came from the burger. Are you kidding me are you trying to make people sick serving thst crap.....its like new owners took over and a grease cook cooked this crap. Since this is the crap you had delivered to me i will never set foot in your place. As a educated chef myself i would never serve this crap.do you people even sample the crap you serve. Take some pride Before you sell something let your staff taste it and give you feed back on the product. Since i wasnt going to take another bite ..i squeezed close to half of cup of grease out of this burger what the hell did they deep fry the burger. The light house use to be real good. And the breakfast was great but now ill never go back .. read more
