New Crystal Diner

User Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Great diner with an unlimited selection. We only go there when we are traveling west on Rte 37 because it is a pain to reach if you are headed eastward toward the bridge. Very roomy and excellent food.

I was so disappointed the last two times I went to the New Crystal Diner. Not only are the prices insane for diner food, but there is no quality of food. $1.50 for a cup of no brand hot tea! Gross food..I'll go to the Toms River Diner next time.

I WAS IN THE DINER WHEN IT FIRST OPENED AND IT TOOK SEVERAL MONTHS BEFORE EVERYTHING FELL INTO PLACE.I CAN TELL YOU NOW WHEN YOU WALK IN,YOU ARE GREETED WITH A SMILE.THE SERVICE IS GREAT,MOST OF THE TIME,AND IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM THE HOSTS,HOSTESSES,AND OWNERS ARE QUICK TO COME TO YOUR TABLE.MY KIDS ARE TREATED TO COLORING,LOLLIPOPS,AND THEY KNOW YOUR KIDS NAMES.THIS IS A KID FRIENDLY PLACE!THE FOOD IS GOOD,AND THE PORTIONS ARE BIG.IF I GO TO MCDONALDS,ISPEND ALMOST AS MUCH ON A KIDS MEAL,AS I DO FOR A REAL KIDS MEAL AT THE DINER.SOME PEOPLE COMPLAIN AOUT THE PRICES,BUT THIS PEOPLE WILL GO TO A CHAIN,SPEND JUST AS MUCH,AND NOT SAY A WORD.AT LEAST WHEN I EAT AT THE CRYSTAL,THE FOODS FRESH,AND I NEVER LEAVE HUNGRY.FOR BREAKFAST BEFORE 11AM,THE SPECIALS ARE GREAT AND INCLUDE JUICE AND COFFEE,AND YES THEY HAVE KIDS MEALS.I DON'T DO LUNCH,BUT WHEN I'VE GONE WITH MY FRIENDS,THEY REALLY ENJOY THE CLUBS,BURGERS,WRAPS,AND SALADS,AND THEY HAVE SPECIALS TOO.WHEN WE GO FOR DINNER,WE CAN ORDER JUST ABOUT ANYTHING YOU CAN THINK OF,THAT'S THE GREAT THING ABOUT DINERS.I LOVE THE STUFFED FILET ND EGGPLANT PARM,THE KIDS OF COURSE WANT SPAGHETTI OR CHICKEN FINGERS,AND MY HUSBAND GOES FOR THE POT ROAST,REALL MASHED POTATOES,AND GRAVY.SOMETIMES WE HAVE REUBENS,PANINIS,OR A GRILLED CHEESE.THE DESSERTS ARE TO DIE FOR,AND THE CHOCOLATE CAKE AND CHEESECAKE ARE KILLERS.WHEN WE LEAVE,THEY ACTUALLY GO OUT OF THEIR WAY TO TALK TO YOU,AND THANK-YOU FOR COMING IN.WE GO OUT ALOT,AND VERY RARELY DO WE RECEIVE SUCH WARM TREATMENT AS WE DO HERE.YES,IT'S ALOT BIGGER THAN THE OLD DINER, YES,THE OUTSIDE LOOKS NOTHING LIKE THE INSIDE,AND YES IT TOOK AWHILE BEFORE IT HAD THE SAME WARMTH AS THE OLD DINER DID.THESE PEOPLE WORK HARD TO MAKE THIS A PLACE WHERE YOU WANT TO COME,WHERE THEY KNOW YOUR NAMES,MAKE YOU LAUGH,AND HAVE GOOD HONEST HOME COOKING.WITH THE STATE OF THE ECONOMY WHEREVER YOU GO,YOUR GOONA PAY,BUT ALOT OF THE PLACES ARE PORTION CONTROLLED,OR PORTIONS ARE CUT TO ABSORB THE COST,BUT THAT'S NOT THE CASE HERE.I DID HAVE A PROBLEM WITH SOMETHING I ORDERED ONCE,AND WITHIN MINUTES THEY WERE MAAKING ME SOMETHING ELSE,AND QUICK TO REMEDY THE SITUATION.SO,FOR MY REVIEW,I SAY HATS OFF TO THE CRYSTAL FOR MAKING DINING A PLEASANT EXPERIENCE FOR ME AND MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS.
