Picked up breakfast for takeout! Service and food was excellent!!! Saw a post with someone me complaining how old a waitress is! That is a ridiculous comment!!!

I enjoy this diner. It is one of few open 24 hrs. Since they opened, the owner weeded out the bad servers. Now, the service is very good & friendly. The food is good as well. I come twice a week now. I’d definitely give them a try. Also, now that Peterpank is closed, it is the only one locally in Parlin/Sayreville /South Amboy area.

The staff here is very nice & helpful. Tonight I took my 94year old dad to dinner atOcean Bay dinner. The waiter helped us get settled, spent time discussing the menu with dad & was very patient. Our family had crab cakes, chicken Parmesan, soups, salads, wraps & dessert. Everything was good, the portions were large, we all took home leftovers

If you are looking for a great waiter or waitress you will find them at the ocean bay diner. Waiter(john) is so cool to talk with and very helpful. Waitress(Nancy) — The over night woman is magnificent !! Food is always on point. I live right around the corner and me and my girl friend go there all the time. Actually writing this review reminded me of their cake and now I think I’m going to jump in my car and head down to the OceanBay Diner. I hope I was helpful to all!!!

Love this place. Huge portions and really tasty. Nothing fancy but everything is done well. Had disco fries, mozz sticks, burger, pork roll egg and cheese, and onion rings… all were great.

Awful service, first of all. Awkward unfriendly staff. Asked very specifically if the blueberries in the on cakes were fresh, I was told yes, and they were very clearly frozen, flavorless, blue rocks of disappointment. The pancakes themselves were flat, thin, and flavorless. My partner got a wrap with fries and the fries were all tiny little ends of what could have been normal sized fries. Additionally, the Heinz ketchup bottles do not have Heinz in them. Very disappointing. Will not return.

I tried this place out again and it has really has changed! Starting the month of September, they are having great specials that no place could beat! I would definitely give this place another try, I promise you won’t be disappointed!

I like to give every place a fair shot. The previous reviews were all over the place. I just finished eating here with my wife and it was a mediocre experience. The waitress was attentive and friendly and the overall place was clean. I ate a grilled chicken wrap. The taste was good, but the wrap’s structural integrity was weak. Fries were hot, but should have had a longer bath in the deep fryer. My wife ordered eggplant parm as it was a special. I have rules about what not to ever order at a diner and eggplant is on that list. So I wasn’t surprised when it was cut way too thick and the sauce was not memorable. She got a free carrot cake for dessert that was stale. I wouldn’t go here for a special night out. The food isn’t wonderful, but it isn’t terrible.

Great Jersey diner. Garden omelette was great — good crispy potatoes. Beef Gyro was great. Our waitress Gwen was very attentive and pleasant.

80 year old waitress should not be serving customers with her shaky hands and her loss of breath. Never brought me the knife I requested due to — no clean knives. Waited 20 minutes for first cup of coffee due to — no clean mugs. Buttered my toast that I asked for — DRY and then grabbed the slices with her hands, saying, «it’s just a dab of butter». Really? Never refilled our coffee as she was sitting down chatting with customers instead. Said excuse me? to other chubby blonde younger — not young waitress who responded… WHAT!!! before I requested my 2nd coffee refill after 45 minutes. Bathrooms were sticky, stinky and disgusting. The place was filled about 50% and not busy at all. Hopefully will be out of business soon.

This was our second choice but how pleasantly surprised! Very good portion, super nice waitress(her name is Lucy) and the French Toasts are bigger than the usual diner! Pork sausages were tasty. Most importantly, very reasonably priced.

Negatives: you can tell that the cooks just want to push out food, not care bout giving patrons a memorable experience, no pride. Positives: clean n staff was polite

This place is awful! First indication should be when the parking lot was empty on a Sunday morning when typically everyone is going out for breakfast. The service was horrible. The food was bland. Plenty of other great diners in the area!

A half hour for a cheeseburger and a bowl of soup. Fries came out rock hard and cold. Burger was cold as well. A local business that was really convenient but I will forever take my business elsewhere.

Oh MY God! This place had awful food. We went there for breakfast because it was close to where we lived and figured it would be nice to eat breakfast out on a Saturday morning. The food was awful. The place looks ok but there was a cat urine spell where we were sitting(booth.) Never again will we even try this place. They need to get another cook. The potatoes are bland, no taste. Would be nice if they put some onions cut up in them and a tiny bit of peppers maybe diced to give some flavor to the potatoes. The place itself looks ok as far as interior goes. They could have a nice diner if they change their ways. Clean up your act Ocean Bay. Wipe down & clean the seating areas too to get rid of that smell of cat urine.

When a diner is empty on a Sunday morning it should really tell you something. I took two bites out of this tasteless hamburger and left the rest of it on the plate. Don’t let the landscape fool you it’s the only good thing about this restaurant. I won’t be back.

I recall the previous diner in this location being horrendous; wasn’t surprised when it failed pretty quickly. When this one opened, I wanted to give it a shot, but after reading the other reviews, I admit I was cautious. I bit the bullet a few weeks ago and ordered takeout on a Saturday morning. Upon arrival, I didn’t wait a second before being greeted by a super-friendly waiter(a young-ish guy). He grabbed the bag, and chatted me up while ringing me up. :) It wasn’t busy, but still. I was really pleased with the transaction. The food was pretty good; still warm when I got it home. There was nothing extraordinary about it; but it was fine. I recall that the the home fries were delicious and the pancakes were only so-so — not at all bad, just not like Pank’s(which I think are stellar). Don’t remember much else. Like I said, it was fine. :) Went in to eat this afternoon. The service was again wonderful — Again, not busy, though.(But I wouldn’t expect it to be at 3 pm on a Thursday.) This waiter(another young-ish guy) was attentive and friendly(jokey but not annoying jokey — I’m really particular about the fine line between good service and annoyingness. For a second he was treading very close to that line but he went away at just the right moment). This time the food was really great. We ordered immediately from the kids’ menu: a cheeseburger and fries and chicken fingers and fries, and they came out quickly(thank GOD). The cheese on the burger looked a bit dry and burnt on the edges but the burger itself was cooked nicely — perfectly pink in the middle, tasty.(It is worth noting, though, that the waiter didn’t ask how we wanted it cooked, and I didn’t think to specify. Lucky for us, it was perfect.) The chicken fingers were terrific. Very fresh, not at all oily. Cooked perfectly. And, something else worth noting for other parents: The plates weren’t hot, which always sucks for kids’ meals. The fries were good. Then the adults’ food came — a chicken souvlaki and French toast with blueberries. Both were stellar. The ingredients were so fresh. Just really, truly wonderful. Halfway through the meal the owner/manager type came by and quickly asked how everything was. I always like that special touch. One Sunday(when they should be busy?), we’ll try again and I’ll report back.

Recently renovated kept very clean no dishwasher smell here. food was great a solid 4 experience. It would be a 5 if they’re was more help they were a lill slow but worth the wait. They’re open around the clock so if u got a hankering for some good food or just want some munchies give them a try.
