This is the best breakfast I have in a long time. They served all kinds of eggs from scrambled, sunny to a mixed omelette with different ingredients. Everything is fresh and tastes amazing. They have also sandwiches which were looking good. Overall the food is super good, the portions are big, prices are affordable and people are friendly! When I will be back in NJ I will definitely stop by.

Garden Café & Bistro is one of those places that instantly makes you want to come back. The atmosphere is warm, cozy, and inviting—perfect for a relaxed breakfast, brunch, or lunch. It feels thoughtfully designed, clean, and comfortable without being pretentious.
The food is where this place really shines. Everything tastes fresh, well-prepared, and made with care. Portions are generous without being overdone, and the flavors are balanced and satisfying. Whether you’re ordering a classic café favorite or something a little more elevated, you can tell quality ingredients are being used.
We ate breakfast and were very pleased with both food quality and how quickly food arrived after our orders. The chicken & waffles were fantastic. Also the strawberry smoothie was perfect according to our daughter. They do serve many empeñada s too and they,were ordered by many people in cafe.
Service is friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Staff members are knowledgeable, patient, and make you feel appreciated as a guest rather than rushed through a meal. That kind of hospitality makes a big difference.
Overall, Garden Café & Bistro is a standout spot in New Jersey for anyone who enjoys great food, a relaxing environment, and excellent service. Perfect for locals and visitors alike—highly recommended.

Ordered food 11:45 2 omelettes and 2 drinks. Drinks were served after 5 minutes but omelettes were served after total of 32 minutes.
And second omelette was on table after 5 minutes from first one. I could understand if restaurant was too busy or if we were informed before we ordered. But unfortunately we needed to wait over an half an hour for two omelettes. It wasn’t just us but another table was talking about serving time is unacceptable.
Other than this, at some point i understand credit card fee is common in every restaurant/cafe/bistro. But 18% gratuity for 2 people? Waiting 35 minutes for two omelettes and charging %18 is unacceptable and i was not even able to ask server about why food is late because they are all behind the counter all the time.
When i was paying for the bill she informed me there was %18 charge. I did not see on the menu but if there is anywhere in the menu i am okay to correct myself.
And when i asked server why you guys have long wait time today she was not really friendly and she said we are too busy with online orders. And all i said was it would be nicer if you could tell us you guys have 30 minutes line. She didn’t even answer me and handed me to receipt.
Overall food is not bad and i think better than average, server and management really needs to be improved, prices are acceptable . But total disappointment for us. Hope they do better!

With Dunkin’ just doors away, this place is in a tough spot, but being one to support small, independent businesses, I tried the lavender lemonade.
Willing to spend a bit more on this payday Friday, I was suited just fine with it’s taste and the irony of something so refreshingly heavenly’s cost mirroring the actual number of “The Beast”.
Maybe they should rename it “The Garden of Eden’s Cafe”!
Nice people. Devilishly tempting treats.

The food was great. I went with my mom and sister and the food is reasonable priced. It’s a cute space and very well maintained. Valeria was super helpful. She was super nice and friendly, 10/10 service on her end, always has a smile on her face.

Solid place for breakfast, I think their drinks and shakes need a little more sugar but that might just be my preference. Service was great though! They do have upbeat music playing on a speaker so if you don’t like noise, opt out

We spent our vacation in New York and had breakfast there almost every morning. The selection was huge, and the waitresses were incredibly kind — they fulfilled all our requests. The food and drinks were also super delicious. Definitely recommend it!

Definitely a BAD EXPERIENCE!
Good points:
1. We got a table immediately (but of course, the place was not busy—only 3 tables with customers).
2. Our server came quickly to take the order, and we got our drinks within 5 minutes.
3. Drinks were good (guanabana smoothie and watermelon lemonade).
Bad points:
1. The server took our order but never came back—we wanted to ask about the long wait for food.
2. We got our food after 32 minutes, and it was just 2 omelets.
3. The first dish came, and the second one arrived 5 minutes later.
4. Both omelets were not warm when served.
5. The restaurant had music playing, but there were technical problems—the music kept stopping, leaving long periods of silence.
6. The server brought the check, but we had to go to the bar to pay. There were several staff working at the bar/cashier area, but nobody paid attention to the dine-in customers.
7. We know about tipping, but due to the bad service and experience, we decided to leave only 15%. However, the cashier charged 18% automatically without asking. When we complained, she said that they always charge that amount, and she was not friendly at all.
8. When we arrived, only 3 tables were occupied, and just one was waiting for food before us. Still, we waited 32 minutes for omelets. The cashier’s excuse was that they had many online orders, but there was no notice about this, so customers could decide whether to stay or leave.
Definitely bad service—it doesn’t make sense to come back to this restaurant.

Looking from the outside in it looks like a regular coffee shop. When you are inside it’s a nice and warm tropical feeling. They have a nice love seat with a neon sign above using a grass backdrop giving it a nice touch to the place. They do have a front entrance on the street side of 49th st and a back entrance from the parking lot side. I had 2 espresso shots with a bit of brown sugar, a strawberry cheesecake and a chocolate chip cookie. The strawberry jam and crust were exceptional but the cream cheese was very thick how I like it but most don’t. The chocolate chip cookie was huge, wider than the bag they give it to you in, but I was decent just a bit too hard for some but it was still great.
