    Brunch with a friend. Nice, full menu
    Adele P.

    Nice spot for brunch. We sat outside on a gorgeous day. The manager seems like a great guy. He was solicitous and I even saw him fixing tables & making sure guests were comfortable. Our waiter was grumpy. Not sure if she was having a bad day but her attitude was the antithesis of the manager. He had to tell her to come over to us. She seemed annoyed that my friend had a question about what she was ordering, and didn't check on us until it was time for the check. It wasn't a busy morning, the inside restaurant was empty, and there were other wait staff working with the other tables. Anyway, my friend ordered the avocado toast with eggs and I ordered eggs benedict. Both were very good and we enjoyed them. We had a great time talking, and looking at the dogs seated at the next table, and it was just a nice morning all around. We each had a coffee. I'm only taking one star off for the waiter because everything else about the visit was great.

    Did not enjoy my dinner here. But first I'll start with positives. I like that it has a diner vibe with roomy booths to eat. But I did not enjoy my meal. I had a burger and it was not an enjoyable eat. The meat was cooked how I had asked but the burger itself was bland. Also, strangely, it was placed on top of the fries which made it a messy eat. The fries were underwhelming as well. As for service, the waiter had actually forgotten to take my order and I waited over 30 minutes just to place my order.

    Mediterranean Mixed Grill

    This place is special. It's a diner but it's not. I've ordered from here many times before and they have not disappointed. We ordered the Mixed Grill, Lamb Chops, and a burger for my son. I asked them not to cook the protein hard. I know complain about things being week-done. I am not that person. We also asked for the lamb to be medium rare, according to my wife it was. Nice. As far as the burger, it was what you would expect, no complaints from my son. I love the options they provide. In such a small space they get it done. Oh and the wings were great.

    Great food with awesome portions and friendly staff. Really enjoyed spending New Year's Day lunch here. We were seated upstairs and had the whole section to ourselves which was very nice. Kids menu were offered with a lot of options and ice cream for after. The group ordered a whole bunch of different things and it all came on time and perfectly. Happy customers!

    Greek fries
    Sheri S.

    This cute diner style restaurant was conveniently located on the main road on Church Street. After checking out other locations and reviewing their menu, we decided to try brunch here. We enjoyed the extra large three egg omelet with avocado and home fries. The burger and fries, along with greek fries, tasted yummy. What I enjoyed most is the large portions. Decent service, clean bathroom, and comfy style restaurant.

    Bacon cheddar wrap with a burger
    Aimee K.

    My sister and I decided last minute to go out for lunch but couldn't decide what we wanted. We Googled a few places and chose Montclair House Grill because of their extensive menu. We sat on the patio which was lovely. Perfect for people watching. The staff does a fantastic job of umbrella management to make sure patrons are well shaded. Like I said, their menu is huge. They are open for breakfast, lunch and dinner with so many choices from appetizers, salads, handhelds, entrées; American fare, Mexican, Greek, Vegan. They were very accommodating when I asked for the Bacon Cheddar Grilled Chicken Wrap with a burger instead of chicken. Really delicious with the burger! My sis had the Turkey Bacon Club. Real roasted turkey breast, crisp bacon and avocado. It was one of the best club sandwiches she's ever had. Our meals came with soup and we both had the matzah ball which was perfect. We also shared an order of sweet potato fries. Service was fantastic. We were checked up on often and our server was very sweet. We will definitely be back soon.

    Huevos rancheros skillet
    Chad P.

    After walking all around downtown Montclair, my friend and I ended up here just because it looked great from the outside with a nice friendly ambiance. So we ate inside but there was plenty of covered outdoor seating that was available on a warm, sunny, Saturday afternoon. I had the huevos rancheros skillet and my friend had the chicken wrap. For less than $14, I got quite a meal! The eggs were fresh, the meat was tender, and overall it was just very delicious. Very much got my money's worth! My friend also very much enjoyed his chicken wrap. Would love to come back and try some more of the multiple things that are on their menu. Service was also good. This is one of the things that keeps me coming back to New Jersey. The restaurants have such good variety and I so much enjoy trying them out. Hope to come back soon!

    Country Skillet. California Skillet
    Madeleine A.

    Stopped here for a quick brunch while walking around Montclair. We got the country skillet and the california skillet. Both were really good! They were more like an omelette on top of potatoes than a skillet with everything mixed in like I was expecting. Either way both were really good and there was plenty left over to take home. Love church street's ambience and this is definitely a convenient and affordable brunch option in Montclair. Service was great too.

    Cheeseburger Deluxe
    Dominic D.

    I came here today to have a lunch meeting with the buddy. Pretty clean place inside with our standard diner type menu. It was lunch so I wanted to try the burger because I like diner burgers. Sometimes it was pretty standard but worth the money they had a good assortment of Panini's and sandwiches, I would definitely come back and try some of the breakfast stuff or a sandwich

    the outside of the restaurant

    First time visit with a party of four.we were greeted by a friendly smile and promptly seated. Our waitress was amazing! So friendly and took our order (four very different dishes) without writing anything down - and all the food was delivered without error! Very impressive. The BBQ burger was huge, quesidilla as well. Glad we stopped in and would definitely return.

    Sesame Ginger Asian Chicken Salad
    Claudia S.

    Stumbled across the place just walking around the area. We wanted to eat outside and just have a quick salad. I had the sesame chicken salad. It was good lots of chicken and loved the dressing but the carrots should have been shredded instead of just cut (hard to eat). Service was quick and price was reasonable.

    a bowl of soup and a plate of food
    Joyce K.

    This place doesn't even deserve 1 star, it's truly a 0-star restaurant. I went for dinner today and CHEWED A PIECE OF GLASS FROM MY SOUP. I spit it out and then found MORE PIECES OF GLASS in my soup. I called the manager over, and he didn't even seem sincerely apologetic. He just asked if I was okay and then said "it's not something we can control", like excuse me?? And then he went away WITHOUT offering another soup or anything at all; I had to call the waitress to ask to not pay. I ended up not paying for the meal (which, frankly, was the least they could do, given that I CHEWED AND ALMOST SWALLOWED GLASS). The food wasn't good either. Don't make the mistake of going here.

    Super good Mexican chicken panini and kids tenders
    Renee R.

    Came out to Montclair with the family and decided to pop in here for an easy dinner with the kids and I can't say it there wasn't a better choice. The service was awesome everyone was so friendly and happy to be there. The staff was great!! We had both my 8yo and 1yo with us and we decided to sit outside and enjoy our meal. It was peaceful quiet and no one bothered us it was great! All the food we ordered was very fresh and our son ate everything off his plate plus off ours! He enjoyed a. Vanilla milkshake which was a great! Before we left the staff serenaded us with a mini happy birthday for the little one since he turned one and we enjoyed coffee cake a little extra ice cream! The coffee was actually really good. I get nervous about coffee from diners they're usually burnt and I like mine black. Their coffee was great!! The s'mores cake was a lot of fun and was delicious!

    I've been wondering about this place for a long time, decided to stop in and give it a try. Ordered…read morethe lentil/oat soup, which was rich, delicious, with a hint of curry! The chicken Panini was excellent as well! All the ingredients at the salad bar looked absolutely fresh and pristine, and the work area was spotless. The owner, who served me, was a very polite gentleman. I will definitely be back!

    Three stars but don't let that deter you…read more COVID-compliant! No indoor or outdoor seating however. One staff member. Everything is neat and clean, if a little outdated inside. The TV playing a PBS program is from 2003, but it's more about the food right? Good selection of menu items, from salads to soups sandwiches and smoothies. Pricing is based on weight of the salad, so I was a little taken aback that two salads (add avocado), and two seltzer's were just short of $30. The place is nestled in the plaza close a bookstore, coffee shop, and several delis of varying flavors. So they do have some competition and without any outdoor seating available I think it's a rough time for them. However, right across the way is a little park with benches and a few tables, so you can sit and eat safely. I imagine they handle a lot of delivery and takeaway orders. Bottom line is the food is fresh, flavorful, and I'll be back for a good salad.
