Dons Diner 666 Nye Avenue, Irvington, NJ 07111

"I grew up in the 70s in Irvington and throughout my lifetime, Don's was on the the best diners!! Over the years ithasnchanged and not for the better!! I stop going years ago because of this. So, I decided to try it again in 2024. I ordered a Deli Duo and I must say, It was horrible!! I asked for the sandwich on Rye bread with mustard, pickle and slaw!! There were to others with me and they bought the food out one at a time!! My order came out about 5-7 minutes after the first order!! While waiting I asked for water!! They didn't even bother to bring us water or the drinks. When my order finally came out, it was on a Kaiser roll, no mustard, slaw, or pickles!! It was.sent back and I waited another 10 minutes for the sandwich to come back out with no, mustard, pickles or fries!! The meat was sliced so thick and was tough!! They fried it instead of steaming the meats!! Some sliced of the meat had no meat and was thick nasty fat!! I sent the sandwich back!! I ordered a chef salad to go because everyone else was finished eating!! Once I got the chef salad home. The roast beef was brownish color and the meats were cut very thick!! The Swiss cheese tasted like a piece of cardboard!! I threw away the meats and cheese and grilled my own shrimp and had the salad!! Maybe, I should have done the buffet? But that will never happen!! Whoever is cooking doesn't seem to care about how well the food taste or its presentation. But, if you're looking for a bargain and can tolerate the quality of their food, be my guest!! Oh yes, the wait staff is very nice!!"

"Was in Jersey on busy..my brother told me about this place...wow some of the best home cooking I have had in a while..The staff was super nice also...I will DEFINITELY recommend this restaurant and I will be back to dine with them soon...thanks for an amazing experience!!!"

"The Sunday buffet was really something everyone should take advantage of. The price is very reasonable for the amount of dishes offered, really high quality dishes. My only complaint was that the beef brisket needed to be cooked longer for about another hour or so.. When i bought this to the attention of the staff they didn't take it as offensive yet they pulled it off the buffet line and put it back in the oven. I thought that was acknowledging and accepting what the.customer was saying without making a big deal out of it. That's customer service you rarely find. Overall was.very satisfied."

"This place had good food once upon a time. I don't know what happened. My fish was overcooked and rubbery, my home fries were burnt and not good. And I also received the wrong food for delivery. I am so upset. I will not be ordering from here again!!!"
