The Edison Diner

Edison diner is a staple. We come very often, the last time we were here was on an early Sunday morning, their breakfast is delicious and they give you nice portions. Prices are on the higher end but you won’t leave hungry and it’s quality food. My favorite is the omelette or the Edison breakfast skillet

Great food, good vibes, and my history buff child loved the Thomas Edison theme. You will get your money’s worth with the portions. Our waitress, older lady with dark hair, was wonderful.

I had such an amazing experience at this diner! From the moment we walked in, the staff was so friendly and welcoming. The menu is huge — honestly a little overwhelming at first — but in the best way, because there’s truly something for everyone. I ended up getting a sandwich, and it was absolutely delicious. Everyone in my group loved their meals, and we all agreed the food was top-notch. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, which made the whole experience even better. If you’re looking for a spot with great food, great vibes, and a ton of options, this is the place. Can’t wait to come back!

The Edison Diner is an absolute New Jersey classic—serving the community since 1952, and it shows in every detail. • Fruit & Cottage Cheese Platter: Fresh, colorful, and beautifully presented with mango, kiwi, melon, bananas, strawberries, and blueberries. A refreshing start! • Breakfast Special: Sunny-side eggs, golden hash browns, sausage, and some of the best bacon around—crispy, smoky, and thick-cut. • Pancakes: Big, fluffy, and cooked to perfection. True diner comfort food at its finest. • Sides: Scrambled eggs and bacon that taste just as good as they look—simple, done right. The vibe is everything you’d want in a diner: warm, bustling, with steaming mugs of coffee and friendly service that feels genuine. Verdict: This isn’t just a diner, it’s a destination worth the trip. Edison Diner proves that comfort classics, when done right, can be just as memorable as fine dining. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ – Highly recommend!

The food was good and service was okay. I just got off a plane, so that might have effected my interaction. Overall I liked the food and the place looked nice.

A little pricey for a diner but the staff was pleasant & waiter was really attentive. They were okay with us setting up balloons to surprise my cousin for her birthday. Those who were not vegan said their food was tasty but I have to take off 2 stars for food category since the menu had such minimal options for vegans. I ordered the teriyaki stir-fry which was okay (7 out of 10) but a little too salty & I'm not a fan of baby corn. It was a large portion that I couldn't finish.

Great Spot After Work – Pleasant Surprise at Edison Diner While visiting the Edison, New Jersey area, a coworker recommended we check out the Edison Diner. After wrapping up a half-day of work on a Saturday, we decided to give it a shot. The diner wasn’t overly busy, but it had a steady crowd — a good sign. The staff was incredibly friendly, making us feel welcome right away. The menu is huge, which made me a little cautious (so many options can be hit or miss), but it turned out to be a pleasant surprise. We started with the calamari, which was excellent — crispy, well-seasoned, and not overcooked. For my main, I went with the Thai steak salad. While the steak itself wasn’t the highest quality cut, the flavor and the salad underneath really made the dish shine. Prices were in the mid-range ($20–$30), but considering the generous portions, it felt justified. Overall, a solid local spot with friendly service and better-than-expected food. Worth a visit if you’re in the area.

This place is very expensive. I ordered the western omelet with a side of bacon. My wife got the 2 eggs over easy with a side of bacon and 2 pancakes. I got 2 alcoholic drinks that were very large, the portions of the hash browns were large. For the 2 of us it was $97 with tip. The place was empty at 5:00 pm.
