Reviews for Lakeside Diner in Forked River, NJ
Place has gone downhill lately. What?s up? Why? Was always great but not now. Are there changes coming to bring it back to its... old glory?! Hope so Read more
Been coming to Lakeside consistently every Sat. for the past 2 years & some Sundays too. Was my favorite place to eat but... whatever ?changes? have been made were definitely not for the best. Went in last Sat. for Breakfast & it took 10 mins just to begreeted by a server then another 10 mins just to get our 3 drinks, mind you there were maybe 6-7 tables total including ours. IfI wasn?t so hungry I would of walked out. Service was mediocre & this is very unfortunate as I will never go back. Read more
My husband just came back from having lunch there and can't stop raving about the great food and wonderful service!
I?m giving this place 2 stars for a couple reasons. I know Sundays are usually busy for diners and that totally understandable... so our party of 6 decided to eat outside under the tent to avoid a long waited seat inside. Don?t get me wrong the food wasreally good even though my breakfast came out after everyone at my table was almost done with theirs, but then our wholeexperience was completely ruined by the band that came. There were a couple very rude women that came along with them and madetwo of the people with me get up from their seats because the chairs were for the band even though they weren?t even playing inthe band they were just watching. And also took the fan we had pointed at us and pointed it at themselves( the ladies that satand watched). They were very rude. If there is specific items outside that are not for paying customers then put a sign out thatsays so instead of being rude to the customers. Read more
Stopped here on our way to AC. Easy off the GS Parkway and back on. Food was great! What appeared to be an owner or manager... checked with us a couple of times to make sure everything was good. Prices and portions were great too! It was the lastaffordable meal for the weekend, and honestly the best meal too! I'll stop here anytime on my way to AC. Highly recommend! Read more
I?d give 0 starts if I could. Absolutely disgusting. I was disappointed the salad came with whole chicken fingers, why not cut... them up? Then when I did I realized why. They used the most disgusting tenderloins they had. So gross. The Mac N cheese is justboxed Kraft. Kind of a pointless establishment if you can?t even make your own Mac n cheese. Read more
I changed my review from four stars to to ZERO, the owner is so greedy that they opened against the law and endangered my life... and yours! I was eating there at least once per week but NEVER EVER again! Nice place to go it you want the virus. Seven of usdropped in on this place and everyone in our party ordered something different. No one complained about our food or theservice. The food was just good old diner food, the kind you expect from a respectful diner. The waitress Megan was great, veryaccommodating, and prompt. TIP, to insure prompt service and that is what we got so it was a real pleasure to leave her a tip.Yes I would recommend this place to a friend. The picture is of the gumball machine in the foyer.

We popped into this cute little diner one day for breakfast. There is seating outside. Even though it was a little crowded The... waitresses were still friendly and calling people by name so that told me they have a lot of repeat business. It's a nice downhome friendly neighborhood diner. I will definitely go back. Food was good and they give you enough that you need a To gocontainer. Read more
