Food is generally good Only problem is that it comes out on a cold plate or lukewarm more often than you like

I just had an amazing dinner at this diner. They are updating the menu constantly and the fresh fish is fantastic. I decided to sit at the counter since I was dining alone, while there I watched how busy and attentive the service staff were. It was a pleasure to see the bright, clean and attractive interior. The owners really demonstrate how they care about their customers. Thank you for an awesome experience. I will be back soon.

I haven't been back to Jersey in over 5 years. I miss the food. I went on a super fast trip for a couple of surprise parties and one of the must eat items was breakfast in a real Jersey diner. The Colonial was everything a diner is supposed to be, so why did I give it only 4 stars? The matzoh ball soup as desperately in need of seasoning and herbs. The homefries were hash browns and very generic, not the real seasoned home fries I was hoping for. But the omelette and the scrambled eggs were fabulous, though and our waitress was friendly and on the ball, I forgot her name but she said she was from Haiti. All in all a very solid diner, which if they could transport it to Florida it would be packed all day every day.

This is a classic Jersey diner with a great menu. The decor is so warm and inviting and has a classic vibe. Service is great and attentive. I got the chicken Ruben which was two chicken breasts; one tow many. It was a great twist on a classic sandwich. I was disappointed in the desserts. I love to get a dessert at a diner because they usually have an in house baker. I got the red velvet cake which was very dry. My friend got a cheesecake that had an almost non existent bottom crust. Overall a great place to meet for a casual lunch

Great diner in East Brunswick NJ, the last one if you will. Standard diner fare although the menu is noticeably smaller than most diners. Daily soups of the day and a great Turkey Club. Excellent service, prices on par with most diners.
