I ordered the Florentine Benedict with home fries and added green pepper and onion (worth the $2 upcharge, in my opinion). I also liked that you get a choice of sides--hash browns, breakfast potatoes, or fruit cocktail--always a nice touch depending on what you're in the mood for. They serve fresh brewed iced tea, which is always a big plus for me. My Benedict was delicious--perfectly done--and the portion was generous. I only made it through half, so I'm already looking forward to enjoying the rest tomorrow. The service was great, and the vibe is super chill and relaxing. It honestly gave me "down the shore on vacation" kind of energy, which I loved. Definitely a spot I'd recommend

Inside, the food was fresh, plentiful, and delicious. We chose side salads instead of fries and they were a great size to start the meal. I had the open‑face Turkey Reuben and the portion was definitely shareable and very good. My husband had the fish and chips and the cod was fried perfectly, 4 nice fillets, crisp outside and tender inside. He swapped the fries for a baked potato and it tasted like it came straight from the oven, hot and fluffy. They offered a long list of specials for 16.99 that included beverage, soup, salad, an entrée and dessert. The cakes and pies looked fabulous and many were ordering dessert. We were too full this time, but next visit we'll save room. Our waitress, Lala, was wonderfu, attentive, friendly and always checking in at the right moments. The manager greeted us warmly when we arrived and again when we left, which added to the friendly atmosphere. Plenty of parking and easy to get in and out. We would definitely recommend this diner and would happily return.

Those prices!! Who…read morecame up with those prices!? Seriously? If the waitress hadn't already went for our coffee we would've walked out. Nothing on the menu under $12... It's breakfast folks!! I gritted my teeth and went with the $12.95 pancakes and bacon. The pancakes weren't full size and taste like "just add water" box mix. Bacon was average at best. I hate to leave a negative review since this diner has been here since the early 90's and is family owned... I just want to give yelpers a heads up. Prepare to spend double what you'd normally spend at many other standard diners. Our waitress was great and the highlight of our visit. However, I won't be returning anytime soon. ** Check out the picture Gerald posted of their menu from 3 years ago. Those prices are now double**

By the time they let me go, it was after two o clock and I was hungry enough to consider eating the clipboard having been required to fast since the night prior. Instead, I drove over to Golden Dawn Diner, an old Route 130 diner that proudly runs on solar power and seems determined to keep the great New Jersey diner civilization shambling onward at least another few decades. The parking lot looked a little lonely when I pulled in. Not dead exactly, just resting its eyes. Inside were a handful of regulars who had the settled look of people who know which waitress works Tuesdays and which booth wobbles. My kind of crowd. The waitress appeared almost before I sat down. I did not need the menu. Two scrambled eggs, home fries, white toast, scrapple, coffee. Scrapple, for the uninitiated, is what happens when Pennsylvania Dutch thrift and ingenuity collides with breakfast meat and nobody asks too many questions afterward. It is made from pork "scraps," cornmeal and existential resignation. Fried correctly, it is uniquely magnificent. Mine was magnificent. Thin slices, crisp around the edges, soft and moist in the middle, clearly worked on a grill by somebody who respected the material. The eggs were right, the home fries actually tasted of potatoes, and the coffee arrived hot and kept returning as faithfully as a Labrador retriever. The food came out with astonishing speed, which under the circumstances may have saved me from gnawing on the booth. Eighteen bucks including tip. If in the area, I wouldn't hesitate to go back. Four stars.

Everything started off as if it was going to be an amazing meal...... This is the part where I think that the actual employees or the owner wrote their own reviews because there was absolutely not a single thing that took place at this establishment that said 1 star let alone 5 stars.. We ordered ham and cheese omelette with home fries and a croissant.. the second meal was a one egg meal, egg over medium with home fries, bacon and white toast. What we got was burnt and cold ham and cheese omelette, and burnt, cold home fries.
