GREAT VALUE; GREAT OLD DINER AMBIENCE. At 11am on Saturday, this place is bustling! Very proud to have a great ol’ American diner in JC! The staffs are kind and courteous. The owner is walking around to make sure all is good. The food was good. Ordered omelette venetian ($20), egg plates ($16), Apple waffle ($18). A little bit pricey but hey the experience is worth it. Total came out to be $87 with tips plus 2.5% credit card processing fee. Would recommend this place to my friends

This is our go-to spot for breakfast, brunch, or really any casual meal in Jersey City. We first ordered on Uber Eats and loved it so much we had to try it in person and it did not disappoint.
They have great booths, solid cocktails, and a comfortable vibe. We always have a great time here, which is why we keep coming back

Edit: It seems there was a misunderstanding with the tips. Owner Lefteris was very meticulous in clearing things up and have promptly refunded us. We really appreciate this, so definitely giving this place a full 5 stars.
We really LOVED the food, it was our first trip to Jersey City and our first time trying American diner food and this place was a great start to the trip. Really liked the corned beef and hash, goes perfectly well with some hotsauce, and washed down with a cup of freshly squeezed orange juice. Will definitely be back if we are in the area!

City Diner in Jersey City enjoys a convenient location just a short walk from the riverfront, making it an easy choice for both visitors and locals. The menu is extensive, offering a wide range of options, though the food quality is fairly average. Prices, however, lean on the higher side, which may not align with the overall dining experience. While City Diner delivers on accessibility and variety, it may feel less compelling for those seeking strong value or elevated cuisine.

Checked this place out and the food was so good! Ended up visiting it two different times in a week. Portions are huge and pancakes perfect and fluffy and the potatoes seasoned so good too. The second time around, my husband and I shared a plate because the portions are huge. Priced pretty good too.

Food was ok. Not somewhere I would go back if I crave for diner breakfast/brunch. Service and atmosphere was fine.

I got the smoked salmon scramble. It was so so but not that special and it had cheese on it which did not add to the experience. It was a very full plate though with a side salad or other side options. My dining companion had the Farmers omelette which she enjoyed very much and found enough for two meals. The cups of tea and coffee were big and delicious!

Do NOT, I repeat, DO NOT get the Southern Fried Chicken here. The ‘batter’ for the chicken doesn’t have any seasoning and is VERY bland and it was not cooked throughout. The coleslaw is absolutely horrendous. The coffee will have you up ALL night long, so that is a plus.
0/10 Do not recommend.

The carbonara was absolutely delicious! The flavors were rich and perfectly balanced. I’ll definitely be ordering from here more often and more options!
