The Randolph Diner Restaurant Review

We went here after I bought a new car at Performance Ford Lincoln. The food was great! Our waitress was really nice too. It was very crowded but she did a good job handling us.

Potatoes were raw uncooked pancakes with doughy and uncooked

Mambo combo was not good at all. Chicken was fatty and undercooked. :(

This spot is worth trying. They have large portions for fair prices. Consistently neat and with excellent ambience. Will visit here again.

Visited the place since the renovation probably about five times. Service is good. Restaurant looks amazing after the renovation. Food quality is marginal, presentation is generally poor. Actually saw a waitress bringing food to the table with food hanging off the plate. We got cottage cheese served on a small dish instead of in a bowl, twice.

Meh! Typical diner options. Service was good today but hashbrowns were cooked in oil that had a weird taste.

Just another Jersey diner. Nothing special about it.

It's a nice place, recently remodeled as of 2018. Food is hit or miss. I won't order a burger from them. It seems like a frozen patty. Other things, such as breakfast meals are good.

Update as of 6/2019. This place is going down hill. I was at this diner twice this year and both times the beer on tap was sour. I had other people in my party taste to confirm it. We all had dessert and it was mediocre at best. I won't be going back anytime soon!

I'd give it a 3.5 ...good food nice service but was very unprepared for Sunday footballs TV's not being on the right channel taking 15 minutes to set up after they all have started already. one bartender for a full bar. A fun place overall though.

It's a modern diner, the food is extremely varied & well prepared. The service attentive.

Another good dinner on par with cut chat, maybe a notch below

I wasn't too impressed by the staff of this place. I solo dined here today and ordered moussaka. I felt uncomfortable since I dined solo. The moussaka was not great, but better than Empire Diner. I am 21 and I look 27 and I asked for a bar seat (rather than a counter seat) and the waiter (who had a sly look on his face) didn't even offer me an alcohol menu. I had to ask for the menu and then he carded me when I asked rather than even asking me when I first sat down (It's common sense to do that when someone sits at a bar and clearly looks under 40). He was suspicious of me and made me feel uncomfortable to even order an alcoholic beverage. I couldn't wait to leave this place. I won't return here unless I am not dining solo. Brookside is a better diner.

Absolutely beautiful outdoor seating I had the privilege of sitting by the water fountain and would gladly come back there any time even when we're allowed indoor dining if the weather permits I still would like to have that same table service was great food was excellent Ambience phenomenal and that was for breakfast

Great choice for dinner tonight. Service spotty but I think our waitress was new. Food was good...glad we went there.

Food was average at best. The new renovations are nice, ,but it feels more a Casio restaurant in AC. Had a family breakfast there don't think I would go back.

Great Food, friendly service, super clean environment...and a Cheese cake to die for.

Family's favorite diner, we come here when we can't think of anywhere else to go.

Great, friendly, clean and respectful place to eat. Great food and excellent prices. This is my new number one favorite diner. Waiter and waitress are excellent. Even on the busiest days, the keep the place calm, clean and cool. Definitely a family friendly place!!! This place definitely deserves a 5 star!

Server was good, nice. Food mediocre. Coffee mugs are plastic, not ceramic. Coffee like colored water All that I could deal with... until I saw the HAIR in my eggs! I told the server. I thought she would tell the manage . Nope. I didn't have the energy to tell the manager after I noticed on my way out not all the cooks have hair net .

Really nice diner, but somewhat over price. I order cheddar cheese fries and they were almost $9! I was shocked, it was $4 for cheese and it wasn't enough cheese to cover all the fries.

Food is great definitely one of the best diners in the area the service inside is great but lately I've had a few problems with my to go orders but I still definitely recommend it!

I ve been coming to the Randolph Diner since I was but a wee lassie haha! I ve seen it evolve throughout the decades from a tiny vintage style diner to the double decker monumental town hub it is today. While I sometimes miss the old fashioned coziness of how things used to be, I m so happy for Bobby and his family and team of invaluable support. Karen is amazing and it s always nice to see Bobby on Sundays, when I usually go for brunch. I usually eat downstairs but I ve been to the upper level and it s neat- there s another bar and more tables up there, and that is also where the private parties and special events are held. They have some of the best burgers and fries around, and the fish and chips here is also amazing. Their prices have gone up a bit, but the quality of the food has not been comprised. The Huevos Rancheros is so good but if I were to make one request it would be to please bring back the original sized entree, as the new version is significantly smaller. Also, sometimes the hot items are a bit cooled by the time they re brought out- just some friendly feedback :) One of my favorite brunch menu items is the classic Eggs Benedict! They serve it with a hearty portion of top-crisped shredded hash browns. Some of the negative reviews mention the bathroom- I understand this concern. Some scrub a dub dubbing wouldn t hurt. I m trying to assess the overall experience this venue offers and I believe the team here really does do a great job overall. This review is food-focused, as is the case with most of my reviews here. I know for the most part, the veteran employees bust their butts and it s always nice to see Diego at night if I go for dinner, as well as the regular afternoon team on Sundays. It s very nice that this restaurant has an elevator for those who are unable to take the stairs. Also, the diner is so community-minded and I love the charitable town spirit. Been enjoying myself here since I was in elementary school and Lord Willing I ll have many more years to enjoy great meals here with family and friends.

Attractive attractive facility good food waitresses were very good prices are reasonable

One of the best Restaurants in New Jersey. Food is fabulous

Nice hot cup of coffee, delicious omlette served with fresh tomatoes. Great meal!!

Good food, service is okay. The bathrooms are disgusting

Newly updated and renovated Randolph Diner offers everything you need from diner food to parties and most importantly a great place to watch the big game. Right off of Route 10 it's a great family own Diner with a long history behind it. I recommend getting the (Disco Fries) cheese fries and gravy... Yuuuuuum

We really used to enjoy the diner but food and service has gone downhill. The food quality is just so bad! We won't be going back.

The best diner I have ever been to!!! And it keeps getting better! It use to be a small basic diner with amazing food. Now they have expanded to have a dining area, bar, counter, and upstairs party hall. The breakfast food is always a good bet. They also have good Greek food. And the sweets! So rich and thick. The cocktails are very unique. The alcoholic milkshakes are a good end (or beginning) to any meal. And to top it all off the service is always great. They deal with crowds very well and the food comes out quickly.

There s one bad worker there his name is Mason Powell he wasn t very focused on getting my order otherwise great place

The service super fast and invtge morning before heading to work or play, that's what I want. The food great and convenient for our Randolph neighbors

This place has excellent food and it looks nothing like a dinner... It's more like a 5 star restaurant

Food was horrible. No flavor and they don't even know how to melt cheese properly. Service was terrible and so slow. Not sure why this place can get so busy with such horrible food and service. We will not be going back.

Always good food, service, atmosphere
The name diner dosen't do this restaurant justice.

Came here for a special event (comedy show) upstairs. I was very impressed by the size of this place... The staff were always on the move and happy to help. Friendly as well. I had a burger and fries, really good. House red wine was nice too. I hope to return and eat in the regular part of the diner.

I was impressed by the overhaul of the physical space. High ceilings and not too crazily decorated.
Prices were appropriate and my food was very good.
Wait staff were very attentive and helpful.
I would highly recommend and will attempt to return when I can.

Great place. Busy over the weekend. Large portions so order accordingly.. Great vibe....!!

Service was horrible. Server came up to our section 5 times and never even looked our way. Food was average at best. This years Mother's Day sign was last years sign with tape to cover up last years prices.

Delicious food, Attentive service. A little pricey for a diner.

Great tasting food with a venue that looks much better than your average diner

Food is good the only thing Fries you have to pay extra which I'm used to them coming with the meal. BTW fries are very good.

we like coming here, been coming for years. It's a family go to

Great food at a good price... Wait staff very friendly and polite..... Will be returning

If you like huge portions it's perfect. For me, I always feel like I'm paying for more food than I can possibly eat. Service is always great.

Beautifully renovated, quick & friendly service. Mediterranean omelette w/ home fries was great. Even the coffee was really good.

Food is out quickly and nice size portions, and good service! Thank you!

This diner was completely renovated a year or so ago. Menu is extensive but is more expensive than other diners in the area. Has a bar downstairs. Also, they now have a second floor that can handle events. We were there on a recent Friday for a comedy show on second floor. We went for dinner before the show and it was packed. Not very busy at the comedy show though that had an excellent comic in Chris Monty.

Pretty good food. Nice decorations as it was recently renovated

Really great food good place to go with family or alone

Food was excellent! I had an omelette.did not wait long for it either and it was a Saturday! It would have gotten 5 stars if my water glass was properly cleaned so they may be rushing the dishes in the back but they quickly replaced it for me. I will be going back to try lunch/dinner items. You will also like the wait staff..very friendly;-)

Might as well stick your head in the garbage and eat it.

Definitely the cleanest and nicest diner I've ever been to

Won't eat here again. So many good reviews I was looking forward to it. We started out with calamari...very chewy and not flavorful. Had a mango mojito which was very sweet, not much rum. Had a gyro as the main meal. Nothing to write home about.

It was quite good!! We were a big party and they took good care of us

Never enjoyed a salad anywhere like I enjoyed the "Coolin It" salad made only at the Randolph Diner.

Best diner in Morris county NJ. Try the soups and sandwiches

Great selection of food. Clean, bright, convenient location. Never disappoints. Selection of deserts is out of this world.

From Stanhope to Livingston this is the BEST diner, hands down! Delicious food and great service.

Hadn't gone in 2 years. Very nice renovation work! Usually good service and food

Disappointed. Pastrami was flavorless, waiter didn't know what deli mustard was and we were not offered drink refills.

It's a beautiful diner, with a large selection on the menu, but my food was a little disappointing. I had an open faced roast beef sandwich where the top layer of roast beef was like dried out leather, and the rest was over done. Almost like it was thrown in a microwave before being served. If you can't serve it fresh, then don't serve it.

This spot never fails to deliver. They serve fresh food for fair pricing, there no long wait even when the spot is busy.

Not like it used to be...a good meal for a fair price....too noisy now.

Wife and I decided to finally try it after their renovations and us moving close to it. Was sat by large groups and noisy kids on a Sunday evening, my wife went to the restroom, came back, we asked for another minute as she just sat down, 13 minutes passed, no one bothered to come back to our table. We got up and left, no one even asked us, even had a few waiters look at us, no one said goodbye or anything. Worst diner experience I've had in a long time.

Breakfast bowl and a bloody mary with my hunny! Delish

Great service but omelette portion a bit small for the price. Food tasted great especially their lentil soup.

Ordered for a pickup. Easy over the phone. Took them 10 minutes to get the order no issue with this . Got home and I wish I took a picture, but this meal was terrible. Huevos Rancheros looked disgusting. The sour cream was in a packet, the salsa was way too spicy, and the guacamole looks like it came from a shop rite package and scooped into the little plastic containers. The cheese was practically cold and the refried beans and home fries were bland. I do not understand how you can get this wrong. Do you not have pride in your food. Will not be coming back here. I was better off going to McDonald s at least there I don t have expectations of a meal.
