North East Family Restaurant 2240 Pulaski Highway, North East, MD 21901

"SO much fun. We felt like family! We stopped in for a late lunch with family members after a funeral and needed not only good food but a bit of fun. Our server was playful, sweet and we loved her. We got a variety of food...breakfast for myself and my husband, a sandwich for my sister and...god save us...liver and onions for my brother in law. We joked with our server about putting him at another table and she fell right in with us. By the way...he LOVED it. HA! Our food was tasty, hot and just what we needed. We actually came back on Sunday for breakfast and had just as nice an experience along with very good food. We'd definitely be back if we were in the area and would highly recommend it. It's local and will make YOU feel like a local. PS...the dessert cabinet looked fantastic...we dind't have anything but only because we were full after our meals. THANKS North East Family Restaurant!"

"I hate to even have to write this because my family and I have been to this establishment several times and the food was good but today was an awful experience to the point my family and I won't be back. We were greeted and sat as soon as we walked in by a nice young lady. The table we were sat at needed to be wiped down (which isn't a big deal). A different young lady came over, wiped the top of the table and said she would be back to take our order. Well here is where the true problem lies, my husband and I sat for 15 minutes and no one came over to our table. A table of 2 men came in (after we'd already been sitting for 15 minutes) and were sat at the booth behind us and immediately an older lady who was working asked for their drink order, she called them by name and just verified that they wanted what she was bringing them so it's safe to say they know each other. At this point it was evident that we were being ignored, but that same older lady asked who had our table, as she obviously noticed we hadn't been waited on, yet she still walked away without serving us. The young lady that sat us then came back over to us about 2 minutes later and asked if we had been helped yet, we said no, and yet again, walked away without providing service. At this point we had been in this establishment for roughly around 20 minutes without being served, yet people who came in long after us were being served. My husband and I got up and left. We didn't cause a scene or be nasty or rude, we just got up and left and will not be returning. It's a shame to run a business and so obviously ignore your customers, I guess my money wasn't as good as the people they know by name."

"Went for breakfast. The food is decent but nothing special. Service is good and the staff is friendly."

"Crab cakes are phenomenal and very reasonably priced. Clean dining area, nice atmosphere and the wait staff is awesome. Very nice local diner with a little bit of everything on the menu."

"If you enjoy the diner style food and vibe then this spot is for you. It has a laid back friendly atmosphere. The menu has a lot of options all at decent prices, especially the kids menu. We went on burger day, so we all had a burger, fries and a cup of soup. It was a lot, definitely filling and I wasn't able to finish all of mine. Our daughters burger was nearly the same size as ours, so one thing they don't do is small portions. Our waitress was super nice and attentive. Meatloaf is amazing! With the gravy and fries... delicious!!"
