    Gyro Wrap
    Robyn H.

    I lovea jersey diner. 24/7 and a nice free lot. Per diner etiquette, beautiful cakes and pies are at the entrance. Service was quick and our waitress was lovely and attentive. My friend thought the buffalo wings were great, they are not breaded. The gyro wrap was huge and more like a panini to me. It came with fries and slaw for $15.98 . The tzatziki sauce is homemade and you should ask for an extra on the side to dip.

    Went to this Diner after a evening of shopping. What a mistake. Should have waited to eat. The diner was very decorative inside. Very pretty esthetically. The waitress was very nice and attentive. I had a dinner meal which includes a soup. Sad to say that the soup was the best part of the meal. I ordered the Baked Meatloaf. What a disaster!!! SEE THE PHOTO! First of all not house made, very hard and the gravy was a horror! The meal did not sit well with my stomach. Will not be going back! This is a case where the rating is deceiving!

    The root one Diner has a warm and friendly environment. The staff was all very kind and the service was very quick. I have to say that everyone at my table loved what they got and have lots left over as the portion sizes were very large. I personally got a Cobb salad with grilled chicken. I don't eat any dairy so I was able to customize the dish a little bit and they were very happy to assist in doing so.

    It's truly amazing that so many food items can be offered, delivered quickly and taste great. We stopped there with a very "hangry" granddaughter just leaving a graduation. We were seated at a booth. What? No jukebox? Dianna was our server and did a great job making sure our food came out quickly and accurately. My granddaughter ordered a chocolate milk shake and grilled cheese sandwich. We took back half the sandwich and all the steak fries which came with it. I ordered the Duo Deli sandwich which consisted of pastrami, corned beef and swiss cheese with cole slaw on the side as well as steak fries. They supposedly give the option for hot or cold, but mine came out hot without being asked. My wife ordered the quesadilla without anything added. Loaded with peppers, onions and cheese, she could only eat half as well and took the rest home for dinner. The cost was very reasonable, easy parking, quick service and delicious food. 5 Stars!!!

    Come for lunch and make sure to grab the soup! Came here for a lunch with a larger group and we had great service and a stellar lunch through and through! The business lunch is quite the deal but I opted for a tuna salad club sandwich - wanted that bacon. I'm really glad that lunch came with soup because I was going to order one anyways! The chicken noodle soup hit the spot and was very tasty. The beef and vegetable also looked good and got rave reviews. Our server was so nice, even asked a companion who initially said no soup after he brought everyone soup definitely convinced another serving. My club had delicious tuna salad, lots of bacon, and the wheat bread was toasted nicely. The pickle and coleslaw also went a long way, especially with those nicely fried sweet potato fries! Great spot indeed!

A friend recently moved to Morrisville and I found myself in the area at lunchtime after a visit. I wanted to try a few things but it looked as though the steak was a big one, so I just had that. The fries that came with it were very good too. As was foretold, the steak was one of the best I've had in years. Let me start with the roll, long seeded torp that had a light toasting. ALL steaks should be so lucky as to have this as a delivery vehicle, most sandwiches too. The beef was tender and nicely seasoned and cheese and onions were evenly distributed throughout. The portion size/cost was very fair, this was 2 meals for me. My only critique would be on the Cooper American cheese used. I would prefer a sharper cheese, Cooper sharp or even provolone. I'll inquire if there are other options. Even if there weren't, I'd still get this anytime. I saw several other lunch items of interest to me, and in the right frame of mind and early enough several breakfast options too. Service was friendly and fast. I'll likely be back next for the shrimp tacos, or just another steak. I'm at a 4.5 with just the one visit, stay tuned....

We came here for brunch on a Saturday which happened to be Valentine's Day as well. The entire place was decorated with heart balloons, flowers on the wall, and the sweetest music playing. Even their regular decor is spectacular; the tables are spotless, beautiful velvet green chairs, and the cleanest bathroom. I also LOVE that their menu is a tour of South America because you can get such a variety of different flavors. We started with an order of their beef empanadas which were spectacular ! Then I ordered a Costa Rican Gallo Pinto breakfast (black beans, rice, chorizo, avocado, sweet pla trains and egg). Hubby ordered a exican breakfast of huevos rancheros (cubed potatoes, sausage, onions, peppers, chorizo, eggs and red sauce). Our son ordered the Nutella, strawberry pancakes which he also LOVED. Everything was very reasonably priced between $13-17 and was a good portion. The coffee was also amazing, sadly $5 which was a little pricey with no refills...but I'm happy to support a small business versus a chain. Kevin who was our server was so sweet and kept checking in to make sure we were liking our food. Then at the end of our meal they gave us the most delicious flan because it was Valentine's Day!

I was informed that delivery was not available to the area, so I drove approximately 45 minutes to pick up the order myself. When I arrived, the restaurant was closed. I texted the person who took my order and received no response. I also called twice and nobody answered my calls. What made the situation even more upsetting is that my messages were seen, yet nobody responded to apologize, explain the situation, or even return my call. This was very frustrating because the breakfast was meant to be a special birthday surprise, and due to the lack of communication and professionalism, the surprise was completely ruined. What disappoints me the most is not only the inconvenience of the long drive, but also the complete lack of respect and consideration for a customer who trusted your business and made arrangements in advance.

The ultimate breakfast came with pancakes or French toast, two eggs and a protein. There is a smaller combo that basically is the same size. I could've sworn in previous months or years that they also would give you toast and fruit or home fries on top of it. That would really make it the ultimate breakfast. But the portion size was a lot to be desired. I have the corned beef hash, which was OK, and it was not too salty, which I feared. However, I think they were using a lot more potatoes and only a little bit of corned beef which made it a little bit of a letdown. The service was pretty good and the ambience was as good as I remember. They got rid of the bocce ball in the front in order to have more tables outside. Time to try some other places.

The soup sampling consisted of three very tiny cups that were sort of like an espresso size cup. The salad was a very small portion. They said that the portion sizes were not smaller because of the $65 price fix option. If you ordered the salads à la carte they arranged from $19-$22 I believe. Had I did the à la cart and received that portion for that much money I would be disappointed to say the least; my wife and I often share a salad before entrées and generally speaking they are big enough to share but their portion wasn't enough for me alone. Presentation was beautiful and service was great, as well as the ambience, and we have been there several times. We are raying a 3 because of the positives, but I did consider making it a 2. I hope the restaurant takes note and addresses the piints I made. Note that the entrée portions were good.

I saw a new sign out front on a Bud Light white board that breakfast was now being served 7 days a week! Hot diggity! I parked out back and walked in to a mostly empty bar (2 customers who looked like they were regulars). The bartender approached and we engaged about their breakfast menu. It was pretty wide open if my desires had anything to do with eggs. They did. I opted for a sausage, egg and cheese on Kaiser roll, and mug of java. While it was being created in the kitchen I watched a show about exotic car auctions. A Borgati opening at a cool million bucks was an eye opener. Another black transport used by John Lennon around London was also put up and sold. Pretty cool entertainment. The sandwich was great! Double patty, fried egg, American cheese and a fresh, quality roll, made for a tasty and fun meal. The side of homefries was likewise excellent - hot, crisp and spicy with sautéed onions in the mix. Coffee, strong and kicking. The only shortcomings were the lack of a joe refill offering, and lack of utensils. Luckily, I had a spoon from the coffee, which was fine as a shovel.

From there, I gave them a follow on social media and checked out their website. Sadly, the bakery is about an hour from where I live, but it's about 15-20 minutes from where I work. However, they usually close at 3 pm, which means I would be scrambling in right before they close or I may not make it at all. Bummer! Needless to say, I saw they do dessert orders for the holidays, so that was my golden opportunity! For Thanksgiving, I ordered a purple sweet potato pie and a banana pudding pie. I got to select the date that I'd be picking up my pies, which was on a day that I had to go to the office. During the week leading up to Thanksgiving, the bakery was closed for regular operations. They were only open for dessert pick ups. The pies were a hit! The banana pudding pie was everyone's favorite. Needless to say, for Christmas, a larger order was placed for banana pudding pie, salted honey pie, apple crumb pie, and mashed potato rolls. Now for Christmas, the bakery was open for regular operations and you had to pick up your pre-ordered desserts at their sister business, Melba Ice Creamery, around the corner. Because it was Christmas Eve and I already had a slew of sweets pre-ordered, I decided not to try to go to the bakery that day. Nevertheless, the goods were a hit again! The only downside is that the crust on the banana pudding pie was a little different the second time around, making it tougher to slice and get out of the pan. It was still tasty though! Would I return? Absolutely!
