First time here but won't be our last...The people here are just wonderful, everyone greets you and they all made you feel like a family member. Our server was Abi, what a sweet and kind young lady. Very attentive and helpful. We found out they opened a few weeks before COVID hit...Kudo's to them for living through it and making it out the other side. We lost a lot of good places during those years and we are pleased we found this place. Beautiful fish tank BTW we were sitting next to it and my husband just loved it. Our children were big fish tank fans and we sent them pics of it. We will be back for sure. We didn't have room for dessert but they surely looked good... read more

We've passed Mr. Geez several times always saying we've got to give this place a try. The big plus is they have parking The place is nice bright and clean inside. It was very comfy and we were seated quickly. The staff are wonderful, vey efficient and friendly. The menu is extensive with lots of diner choices. We had breakfast, the Mrs. Had banana French toast and she loved it. This says a lot because she is very picky. I had 2 scrambled eggs light with hash browns sausage and a crispy English muffin. My breakfast was perfect. Give this place a try, my girl said she wants to come back. If she likes it that a big win for Mr. Geez. Give them a try read more

Mr. Geez - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lyndhurst, New Jersey

A bunch of us went there for lunch. Our waitress, who was working alone, was excellent. Having to serve the entire restaurant didn't seem to bother her at all and the service she provided was top notch. Food was great and portions were more than adequate. We needed take home boxes for sure. Can't wait to go their again!! read more

You walk in and the staff is so warm and sweet. The decor is cozy and overall very welcoming. The coffee and hot chocolate were delicious and our meals were really good. My boyfriend had the steak and eggs - steak was well seasoned and the eggs were delicious. We had fries with it which were honestly amazing. I had a country omelet which was absolutely delicious. Our server was so sweet and we will be back!! read more

Walked in while getting a tire changed. What a find! Coffee good food delicious! But the selling point for me on a snowy morning was the pleasantries of the two folks running the place. Looking forward to a brunch which they were voted best in Bergen county two years in a row. Kinda out of the way but worth the trip read more

Mr. Geez 500 Schuyler Ave. Lyndhurst, NJ 07071 Mr. Geez Wing Combo BBQ Chicken Fries Asian Wrap Monte Cristo Extreme Brownie Milkshake I previously explored several breakfast plates at this locally owned restaurant and each choice was a home run. It is now time to scope some eats from the lunch menu. If you are looking for the best of three worlds, Mr. Geez Wing Combo is a definitely must try. Named after the restaurant, this starter serves a piping hot variety of wings: Buffalo, Teriyaki, and Honey BBQ. You won't have to worry about choosing because you can try them all! Because I enjoyed the Honey BBQ wings the most, I decided to have a variation by exploring the BBQ chicken fries. This may be an appetizer, but it practically serves as a meal. The large plate was piled high and deep with hearty chunks of barbecue chicken atop thinly sliced french fries. You can try to finish this in one sitting, but I can virtually guarantee that won't happen! It's time to try a piece from the east. The asian wrap is primarily packed with teriyaki chicken, mandarin oranges, fried wontons and other toppings. Of all the toppings, I personally recommend holding the onions. The monte cristo is the way to go if you are yearning a gourmet sandwich. This hoagie was packed with ham, turkey, multiple cheeses with a side of raspberry preserves. It also includes freshly made potato chips and a side of raspberry preserves dipping sauce. You can smear the spread onto the sandwich or dip the chips. Either way, it will make your day! The extreme brownie milkshake is a perfect closer to the lunch menu. I doubled my desire by substituting chocolate ice cream to supplement the three large, chewy brownies; Talk about chocolatey. You probably won't be able to finish this in one sitting, but you can always save the brownies for your next dessert! Regardless of whichever plate I try, it's always a home run. Stop by today and this place will make your day! read more

Location: Industrial/Residential part of Lyndhurst, NJ. Service: Speedy. Attentive. Personable. Food: Unique. As in who ever heard of a gigantor Muffin Top? Not me. It's described as a Corn Muffin Top as large as your plate. How could I resist? Delicious! They also serve a Monte Cristo. I rarely see this classic option offered. Ambiance: Warm. Inviting. Old school 50's music giving contrast to the modern decor. A large soothing to watch fish tank placed centrally in the restaurant. Wish we lived closer, Mr. Geez would surely be on repeat. TIP: Old School Bankers Hours Open Early - 8:00AM Close Early - 3:00PM read more

I have had occasion over the past 6 months to eat at Mr. Geez because my sister in law and brother in law come down for appointments and me and my husband meet them there for a visit while they are in town. The food has improved. I haven't ordered the corned beef ever again, but the omelettes are very good. I'm happy to provide an updated review, quite different from my first, many years ago. read more

Really good and underrated diner. YOU HAVE TO TRY THE MONTE CRISTO HERE! also the reuben is very good and the prices are so incomparably affordable. read more

My friend and I had lunch at Mr Geez yesterday. The food was phenomenal! Mr Geez is one of those restaurants that follows the "bigger is better" philosophy and does huge dishes with many components. It works out pretty well for them! My lunch was called "The Muffin Top." It was a huge corn cake with Canadian bacon and eggs your way on top. On the side was some breakfast sausage and bacon. The corn cake was delicious. All the proteins were cooked to perfection! My only complaint about this place is their lunch menu was a little light. Nothing looked that appetizing. That's why I ordered from the breakfast menu. My friend got a chicken and waffle sandwich. It was huge! It came with chips on the side and bacon on a stick lol. He enjoyed it a lot. Just an FYi: as of January 2024, you will be charged $5 extra for sharing a plate. Guess they have too many people doing that. There are signs everywhere announcing this. Overall, Mr Geez was a cool restaurant with some very friendly staff. I liked the food, although I wish they had more options, and the building was great. Hope to return some day. read more

Mr. Geez has been on my bookmarks for a while! Finally tried it out today and it'll probably be on my rotation now! We came for breakfast but lunch looked absolutely great too. It's very cute inside, a huge fish tank sits right in the middle of the dining room too. We got a BLT, which came with house made chips - delish, avocado toast, waffles and a short stack. The BLT was great, the avocado toast was delicious but I might ask for it on sourdough or rye next time. The waffles and the pancakes are great, I especially like the pancakes. They were thin and soft but had a crispy outside, they're fantastic. Definitely try them when you're here. Their fries are on my list next! Servers kept coming out with huge plates of fries topped high with different toppings - they looked great. Parking is easy and the service was good. I do wish they came around with fresh coffee as a refill but maybe I need to ask next time. Overall - a great breakfast spot. read more

Giving it only 3 stars because my grilled chicken with avocado sandwich was bland, chicken was bland and dry. My partner got eggs Benedict and his was good, he said. Our waitress was fast and friendly. She asked us if we wanted anything else and without asking, refilled my coffee cup. Loved that. Ambiance was cozy, clean and welcoming. read more

GREAT place for breakfast/brunch. Food quality, taste and service are excellent. What a find.

What a treat! The pancakes were so light with a crispy edge, tender with a sweet butter taste. I wish I had gotten a full stack they were that good! The waitress was pleasant and efficient and had coffee refilled without having to ask. The inside has booths and tables and is sufficiently lighted and clean. My suggestion...have a full stack of pancakes! read more

Went up north to see the Jets play last Sunday, Mr. Geez was recommended for breakfast. All 3 of us were blown away by the attentive, smiling, awesome staff, and the fantastic food.

Thank you Mike and then crew, a job well done , we will spread the word. read more

Never had a bad visit. Service can be a bit slow, which they acknowledge, but it's a real treat. Their pancakes are huge and delicious. They're thin and they initially look disappointing but are the best pancakes in the area. I haven't tried their lunch menu but we love every visit there. It's cozy and welcoming and feels family owned. read more

After awakening from my well deserved food coma nap, my first instinct was to exclaim about how amazing this restaurant truly was. A hole in the wall, perfect place for a cozy brunch. The food was so authentically made, although classic American, you could tell everything was made with fresh ingredients and not just a box. The eggs Benedict had to be one of the best I've ever had. I was in awe of this place. The service was superior and I constantly felt catered to and taken care of. I will definitely be back and bringing friends. If you're looking for a breakfast or brunch place I'd definitely recommend this place as it gave me the vibes of "home, away from home" I have to come realize not all of the best restaurants are found on social media and require walks in unassuming neighborhoods. I am so grateful I stumbled across this gem of a place! read more

Ordered takeout a few days ago and was pleasantly surprised by the portions, service, and taste. Service - the staff are really warm and that is the first thing I appreciated about this place Decor - the ambience is warm and cozy. I really hope I can come dine-in once the pandemic blows over Food - the portions are large and the food is well prepared. They don't skimp on the good stuff! I highly recommend the Monte Cristo sandwich. It comes with a side of raspberry jam which is a detail I love. Also the potato chips and pickle pair well with the sandwich. read more

Mr.Geez has great pancakes BUT the experience to sit and have breakfast is not. The booths are so old they have duck tape on them covering huge holes in the seats that you practically fall into when sitting, the booths are loose and swing back and forth as the person behind you talks or laughs. Very uncomfortable to say the least. If we decide for MR Geez again I will only do take out moving forward. read more

This place has all the decor and spirit of a greasy spoon diner (pay at counter, counter seating, booths, fish tank, etc.) but nice and tidy. Met up with some folks in town for brunch on a Saturday. Stuck with the classic corned beef hash and eggs and extra crispy hash brown potatoes. All-time classic jersey diner dish. Tried the cinnamon raisin french toast. It was more french toast with cinnamon and raisins on top rather than cinnamon raisin bread made into french toast. The flavor was good so would try the cinnamon raisin pancakes instead. read more

Food: Always fresh and they kindly make accommodations when asked. Definitely try the pancakes, anything with Hollandaise sauce (theirs is the best!) and the homemade soups- which are a great "to go" treat to take home for your evening meal after you're so full from the great breakfast/brunch/lunch! Service: Friendly, reliable, accurate, timely, all the things! They are so good about refilling coffee and checking in appropriately to see if you have what you need, but they will be cool with letting you sit there and chat too. This is a family owned and run business but extremely professional staff. If you order one of their epic desserts you will be impressed! But even if you just order a hot cocoa around the holidays there will likely be some adorable seasonal decorative element your server will surprise you with. Ambiance: Relaxed, family friendly, cozy decor, a fireplace for winter mornings, a huge beautiful fish tank to mesmerize kids of all ages. There's usually a choice of a booth, a table, or sitting at the bar. They accommodate large groups. Overall: A great dining experience you won't forget! There's usually no wait for a table and they greet you like you're old friends. I've been coming here for a few years and I'm now a regular who keeps coming back for more! read more

I went there in the morning around 8ish for breakfast. I ordered the nutella crepes and my friend had an omelette. It wasn't too packed and the ambiance was a nice perfect breakfast date spot. What I do what to point out was the exceptional service (shout out to Laurie). She was super attentive, very personable, and just made our experience that much better! Thank you! read more

Geez, what a solid restaurant! All puns aside, Mr. Geez really made for a delightful brunch spot. It's got diner vibes and had a large menu full of all your favorite breakfast picks. There's also a ton of other options if you're coming for lunch or dinner The service was an A+ thanks to Alyssa. She helped us with all our menu questions and made sure our experience was as good as it could be. What we ordered: The Muffin Top - Giant corn bread covered in sausage bacon eggs and ham. If you like cornbread, this is for you Chicken and Waffles Sandwich- this thing is a work of art. It's not on their menu, but we saw it on a viral Tiktok and they were able to make it for us. Definitely inquire about it if you're into that sort of thing Iced Coffees - They had so many unique flavors to choose from. Can't wait to try them all. Overall, Mr Geez earned these five stars and you need to get over to visit them now read more
