Chit Chat Diner

Every time I visited, the experience made me feel full of goodness, like I'd left my mom's house. The service was always welcoming and friendly, with contagious smiles at the correct times in the morning. The energetic spirits of everyone created an entertaining atmosphere—no dull moments. I can't believe it's a diner. The tables offer great conversation starters for anyone on a first date or at a loss for words. And, as I mentioned, the food is beyond appetizing; it's cooked with love and care. Hats off to the chefs.

We became regulars here. I just updated more photos todays because I love taking the selfie on their big mirror in front of the entrance 😅.

When I first visited, there was no parking lot available, and there was a long line in side the restaurant, which means there were so many people loving it, and it seems so popular.

The food was okay, but I didn't feel so great.
The interior was interesting, and the staff was kind enough.

I haven't realized this restaurant existed for 3 years even though I live near here.

I need to come more often to compare to the Saddle Brook diner because the latter has been my favorite for years.

Great diner—there’s usually a seat open at the bar. I arrived around 9:30 a.m. and was out by 10, with my food arriving quickly.

The service was excellent. I didn’t catch my waitress’s name, but she had blue eyes and was very attentive and friendly.

What a fun diner! All the food is fresh and the portion size is large. They even give you little cards to start conversations while you are waiting or eating. The service is super quick. I ordered the turkey burger with sweet potato fries. I would give it an 8/10. The burger was fresh and the sweet potato fries were really delicious and filling.

It’s busy especially on a Sunday so you do have a bit of wait. They move quickly. The Short Rib and Egg Tacos were like a 6/10. The refried beans gave it a different flavor profile.

We arrived at 12:10, and it was packed. There was no parking space available, and the place was definitely crowded. That didn’t surprise me, I figured it would be busy around lunchtime.

We were a group of three and waited about 15 minutes for a table. Once seated, it took another 15 minutes before someone came over to take our order. That part I didn’t enjoy, but we were already there so we just waited.

I ordered the Southwestern scramble—it was okay, nothing too special. As an appetizer, we got the chicha sampler, and I loved it. It had a great mix of flavors and was probably the highlight of the meal for me.

The menu is well organized and easy to read, which helped when deciding what to get. The decoration inside was really nice, and the place felt cozy. I noticed how quickly they cleaned and reset the tables as people left, which shows they keep the space tidy for the next customers.

Overall, even though the service was a bit slow at first and the food wasn’t amazing, the experience was still decent. I might come back to try something else from the menu next time.
