Reviews
The service is fantastic: quick without feeling rushed, and everyone goes above and beyond to make your meal perfect. The food tastes just like a home-cooked meal, hearty and full of flavor. You can tell there’s real care behind everything they serve.
If you’re looking for a place where you can relax, enjoy great food, and feel completely welcomed, this is the spot. Absolutely deserves all 5 stars!
With a nondescript exterior and limited signage, Foodies Diner is easy to miss. It’s in an area with mainly houses and mixed use commercial buildings, but the space inside is cozy. I especially appreciated the way the owner greeted everyone who enters and thanked everyone who leaves with notable warmth and small-town friendliness.
The menu reads like a true diner – with all-day breakfast and brunch options, as well as standard lunch fare. We ordered a Santa Fe salad and an L.A. burger – which comes with avocado, bacon, onion, lettuce, and tomatoes. The burger was pretty standard, but having it delivered on a warm brioche bun feels a little bit special. The accompanying fries were also great – crisp and potatoey on the inside.
The salad, on the other hand, was a near triumph. Served on a large platter, there was a small field of well-seasoned chicken, shredded cheddar, vegetables, avocado, pico de gallo, and – best yet – some pieces of warm, toasted pita. I even sprinkled some pieces of bacon from my burger into this salad, and wow did that take it over the top. I dug into this salad with fair gusto and would absolutely come back for it…which is saying something, since I wouldn’t expect to fall in love with a salad at a diner.
Service was fantastic, and we were pleased with how reasonably priced our meal turned out to be. There’s plenty of parking – either right out front or in the lot further back.
Overall, it was still a good experience. Not every dish at a diner can be a winner.
Tip – there is a parking lot around the back but it’s small and some of the spots are a bit awkward to park in
Peanut butter & jelly shake: loved this!! A nice balance between the peanut butter and the fruit flavor!
Buffalo chicken omelette: overall a solid omelette, nice kick with the Buffalo sauce, the bleu cheese chunks were pretty intense
Short stack of pancakes: these seemed a bit heavy to me
Red velvet waffle: the batter was also pretty heavy on these, but I did love that even though there were red velvet cake pieces IN the waffle, it wasn’t overly sweet. If the batter is lighter in the future I’ll definitely order it again!
Grilled cheese & waffle fries: waffle fries were very crispy and on point! And the grilled cheese was perfect. Brought me back to being a kid ❤️
Though small and unassuming on the outside – it was cozy on the inside! There were both booths and tables – plus an easy layout to find the restroom and to navigate around. We were greeted by the most friendliest staff and they made it feel like we’ve known each other for years when it was only our first time. They were also very accommodating to my requests and were patient with me when I made changes to my order. There was only 2 people working on the floor while we were eating but they always made sure we were tended to and were doing okay!
The food had good portions and tasted amazing! I had the Hash Benedicts and my friend ordered the Fresh fruit waffles. The Benedict was perfectly runny (you have a choice on how you want it cooked) and they did not skimp out on the meats. The home fries were crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside and were seasoned well. I also ordered a Cappuccino with whipped cream and cinnamon on top and it came in a cute glass so you could see the layers well. While we were waiting for our food they even gave us French toast bites to try!
I would definitely come back to try their lunch/dinner menu. They serve a solid breakfast! I wish I came here more growing up because it’s so close to my old high school – I highly recommend this establishment and you should definitely stop by if you’re in the area!
New Jersey, often overshadowed by its more famous neighbor New York, is a treasure trove for food enthusiasts.
Most Jerseyans know the big names when it comes to Jersey dining destinations: Montclair, Red Bank, Jersey City, Morristown, Cape May, Ridgewood, Asbury Park, Hoboken, and the list goes on. But what about places that deserve to be on the culinary map, say South Hackensack?
Located on Huyler Street, this family-owned establishment likes to put a twist on diner classics to create innovative new flavors.
Foodies Diner opened in 2021 and is where we came for lunch after our last visit a year ago.
My partner and I were greeted by the owner, Teddy, upon entering this cozy, modern vibe and got a booth right away by the register. Their menu feeds that diner fix with huge selections for breakfast, lunch, or brunch. We decided on the Cod Filet and Grilled Chicken Navajo accompanied with fries. We were treated with the sample of the Chef-Prepared Rice Pudding.
The food was amazingly tasty, made with fresh ingredients and good portions. The fries were crispy and not greasy. The price was reasable for the area. The staff was friendly, accommodating, and full of energy, especially our server, London. I had a great conversation exchanging notes with Teddy.
We had another wonderful dining experience, which we continue to recommend.
