The only small thing I'd change is that I wish the fresh-squeezed orange juice had been chilled or offered over ice. I didn't ask, though, so I can't really count that against them. The carne asada omelette was delicious--perfectly fluffy, well-seasoned, and full of flavor. The tres leches French toast had a beautifully crisp, toasted exterior while staying soft and moist in the center. We were lucky enough to be seated immediately, and the staff was friendly and accommodating, even letting us choose where we wanted to sit. The restaurant has a cute atmosphere with tasteful decor, good music, and a comfortable noise level. The restrooms were clean and updated, and parking was easy and conveniently close. Since we visited on a holiday, parking was even free. Overall, it was a wonderful brunch and a great way to start the day. One thing to note: the specialty drinks are all mocktails, so if you're looking for bottomless mimosas or a boozy brunch, this probably isn't the place for that.

So upon doing my research I came across this restaurant. Now of course upon reading reviews everyone said to get there early because the line can get long especially on a Saturday and Sunday morning. So we arrived around 8:30 on Saturday and we were seated right away because it was only two of us . The service was excellent we were seated right away . Our waiter came out and gave us the rundown of the menu . They had a promo menu because of the Devil Wears Prada movie . I did get a specialty non alcoholic drink from the menu which was excellent. We ordered the French toast and the avocado toast with scrambled eggs and it came with smoked salmon on sourdough bread . The French toast was so good and moist you didn't even need to add additional syrup . The food was delicious and the portion sizes are perfect . The restaurant is cozy so if you have a big party make reservations. But you won't be disappointed I can't wait to visit Brunch by De Martino again whenever I come back to New Jersey . Please check them out you won't regret it .

The service was great. We got seated right away and had no wait. I would recommend this place for a nice, healthy lunch. The price was reasonable as well. I would return if I were in the area again for a meal. They have many danishes to buy by the register, definitely worth checking out.

Met for lunch on a weekday.. not super busy, which is good because it is a small spot in a strip mall. Not over impressive aesthetically, but the food and service make up for it. I ordered a cranberry, cheddar, and bacon omelette, which was very well done, but totally missed the mark with the cranberry. There was barely any there! Which was sad, because who has ever thought of adding cranberry to an omelette, but since I love a sweet and savory experience, I thought I'd give it a try. It was topped with sour cream, which made it even more interesting. Even though that was missing, it was still well prepared and I enjoyed it. It came with a side mixed greens salad with a light vinaigrette that balanced out the richness of the dish. We washed it down with a beautiful lavender green tea that we both really enjoyed. We were hoping that it was sold to go, but there wasn't. I did take some sweet treats to go.. a key lime tart for my hubby, a raspberry nutella croissant for my LO, and a chocolate chip cookie for myself. They loved their treats... my cookie had a nice flavor, but it seemed undone in the middle... I prefer my cookie with some chew, so I've had better. Overall, pleasant experience if you're in the area and looking for a breakfast/lunch/brunch spot!

The exception is Grounded for Life, which offers delicious breakfast and lunch options that are thoughtfully prepared, delicious, and satisfying. Their extensive, all vegan menu offers breakfast options such as bagel sandwiches, burritos, toasts, and more, and even their coffee is surprisingly good! I have also enjoyed their wraps, bowls, and sandwiches. And they even have burgers and hot dogs, too. GfL is my new spot for takeout (order ahead online to save time!) before heading to the airport. The chunky chicken wrap saved me when my flight back to the West coast (already a long journey) was delayed by several hours and I was starving. The cafe also has a number of yummy desserts displayed in the case that are great to-go. GfL also offers a "Meal Prep" option where you can order food on a weekly or monthly basis. Service is friendly and efficient, but they are sometimes understaffed. Try to be patient and nice, and your tasty food will be out soon enough. The cafe itself is pretty small with just a few tables indoors. The outdoor patio is more expansive, and I recommend enjoying your food and drinks outside if the weather is decent.

This was a pretty cool place,  just off the highway.   The place has lots of parking and so much to…read morelook at.   It has outdoor seating and a cute various animal decor on the side of the building.     Inside,  it's pretty compact but so much to look at once you enter.  When you walk in, there isn't much standing space to place your order.  It easily gets crowded with a line in no time.   The lady who took my order was super nice and patient for us first-timers who are unsure of what to eat.   In my case, I like to order a little bit of everything.     They had a variety of snacks and drinks.  While I was waiting,  I couldn't help but look at the various signs and even pictures of cars they had posted.   My guess is they probably used to have car shows or something back in the day.  The pictures look like they were taken quite some time ago, which makes me think this place has most likely been here for a while.     We ordered: 1. French toast combo with corn beef hash and eggs - When I saw 10 pieces on the online menu, I was like, what? After trying it, I can't get enough.  It was fluffy and light, perfect balance of bread and egg.  It wasn't overly sweet.   To me, it didn't even need syrup.  Corn beef and egg were amazing.  It's simple but perfect.  I'm the type that would've loved this even more with rice. 2.  Breakfast burrito with sausage and bacon - It originally comes with 1 meat, but I normally do 2.  Why choose when you can have both?  It was amazing, I'm not a fan of bell peepers but everything mixed together was the perfect balance in every bite.   You get the softness of the egg and potato and crunch from the bell peppers.  They did not skimp on the meat. 3.  Bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich - The lady told me this sandwich was the most popular breakfast sandwich.  I had it the way they made it and didn't even switch the bread.   I believe it was a kaiser roll.  This thing was perfect just the way it was.   It's simple, but it hits the spot.  It warms the belly right up.    Honestly,  I have family that lives close by, and they have never tried it.   I told them you guys need to go here.   Portions are generous, and items are reasonably priced.  I can't wait to come back when I'm in the area and try more items.

And they call it Taylor Ham! Bonus points right there. I wanted to cover several food groups with my meal. I had my partner's cream of turkey soup, and I can say it's really just turkey and rice soup. So that was disappointing, I was hoping for something a little more... cream based. It felt stocky. I also got special banana walnut pancakes, no butter (just not my vibe). Unlike some places, they listened! And I spread some jelly and enjoyed my meal. A nice amount of fruit and nuts scattered throught the batter. The over-medium eggs came out pretty much exactly as ordered. Water and refill came without ice as asked. I checked out the dessert bar, but everything looked rather on the small side. Verdict: Classic diner experience, if you're into sandwiches, breakfasts, or the standard list of apps and "specials". Nice place, nice service, and not much else to compete in the Whitehouse area at a reasonable price point. If you're hungry and you don't want to eat among a million people in a place like Somerville or Flemington or Clinton, here you go.
