Hear from our valued guests
We love coming here! We visit with my mother in law every time we come to town and everything we have is delicious.
Nice family type restaurant, serving breakfast, lunch, dinner, with specials In Whiting, NJ. In a strip mall. Wonderful and friendly staff. Server Pat was excellent. Food terriffic, decent prices. Large menu. Went for lunch on Wednesday 06/15/2026, about 11:45 AM. Beat the lunch crowd.
Very good food. Outstanding over the top service. Friendly atmosphere.
I called in the morning to see if they would be able to accommodate a party of at least 15 after a funeral service later that morning. We ended up being 19 people and they were ready for us when we got there. The service was great and very attentive. I appreciated everything.
This was our first time here and the service was amazing and the food was fantastic we will definitely be back have to check out the lunch menu and then the dinner menu we can’t wait.
It was good. The waitress was very friendly and attentive. My Mom and I just got burgers but they were well cooked and the French fries were crispy, just the way I like them.
This was a great place to eat. The menu is extensive... They offer specials for 55 and over as well as kids. Our food was served on a hot plate to keep the food from getting cold as you dine. The service was very good interior clean well lit. I will definitely eat here again over any kind of fast food or other local places. They are open 7 days a week u til 7pm and 6pm on Sundays. Yash was our server he was great made sure everything was OK throughout the experience. Thank you...
We love this place! The owners and staff are very friendly. The food is always delicious, and portions are more than ample. The pricing is great for the value. We often bring friends here for a casual meal in an upbeat, but not overly loud atmosphere. Today’s breakfast specials included honey maple pancakes with eggs and sausage and a spinach, mushroom cheddar omelet with bacon. The home fries are always perfectly cooked. The restaurant also offers a dessert case that includes THE BEST cheesecake we’ve ever had.
Being a realtor, I end up eating out a lot. This Heritage Restaurant is located in a very quiet strip mall in Whiting. It has a country home town feel to it. Service is super friendly and polite. I've been here a few times, and always forget to leave a review. The menu is full of items that just about anyone can find something to eat. The other night I got the eggplant parm with side of linguine and garlic bread. I usually don't eat it all, but that night it was so good, so delicious and flavorful I had to make myself stop. I told my husband, all the fancy places, including some $$ Italian ones was no comparisons to this! The fresh homage eggplant and gravy was outstanding! I think I might go back this week for more!! Oh, sorry, no time for a picture, I was too busy eating 😅
It's a lovely Jersey diner nestled in a strip shopping center. My Mon has been going for years and they all know her and greet her like family. Essentially, its a comfortable, friendly family restaurant. They are kind and helpful and accommodating. The foot is excellent, the service is fantastic and meals are boroughs out quickly. We were there for breakfast on Mother's Day. The place was packed but we were seated quickly, offered beverages and our orders taken in a timely manner. Despite the crowd, our food came out quickly and everything was hot and delicious! I always have a good meal there and my mom goes weekly (she lives closer than I do) and loves the place. Many thanks to the staff that make her feel at home!
