Pretty generic. Cheeseburger is delicious. Pies and cake needs some work

Its a cute little diner on the side of 130. Its menu wasnt as large as other diners Ive been to but we all found something we wanted to eat. The staff were super friendly and our food was good. Overall, a nice little place to grab a quick bite to eat.

Great times, Great food, GOLF BATTERY 3RD BATTALION 14TH MARINES DIVISION LUNCHEON

I left stuffed like a pig. I used to frequent the Golden Dawn growing up. After living abroad for a long 20 years and recently returning to the area, I decided to give them a visit. Oh my God, such great food!

Our server was the best. Customer service was excellent and the food was good.

Food delicious, service great. Nice hometown place.

The Golden Dawn has never been a fancy place to eat, but Ive never had a bad meal there in 50 years. Breakfast is always my favorite. Wish theyd bring back the Spanish Omelet, but they will pretty much make what want, how you want it. Id recommend the GDD to anyone.

Thought the food was pretty good. Really enjoyed the Wahaka wrap. It was FRESH cilantro, well seasoned and cooked chicken and roasted red pepper. I would absolutely go back for it.Steak fries are always a win. The cheese cake, solid.My one thought, these are not classically sized diner portions. I ate my whole wrap. The meals were finish-able. Not a deal breaker for me, but worth noting.All and all, solid meal of diner classics.

The food was great really enjoyed it. Havent been there in a while will be returning soon

Was greeted with a warm welcome when we first walked into the diner. Our service was Amazing and the food was delicious and fresh. We will most definitely go back for Lunch and Dinner. Hopefully we will get Nancy as our waitress because she was Great 🌟

The food came out fast and on time, wished I had a picture but I ate it all. So exceptional service and all. Waffles western omelette and wheat toast

Awesome guest experience with my lovely lady.Being a Chef from Stephen Starr, as well as Executive Sous Chef of Steak 48 under Executive Corporate Chef Robert Watson, I am quite meticulous about cuisine,I will say this,best French toast this side of the bridge.We will definitely be back,plus my fiancé loves the place .

Service was great. Attentive and helpful. Enjoyed the breakfast prepared right on time!

Every couple of months a group of retirees go for breakfast. They have always been very accommodating. Food is good.

Love this place. The food is good.

Great service, Debbie was our server and she was as friendly as they come.

My wife and I haven’t been to Golden Dawn since several years before the COVID pandemic. We decided to return there on a recent, rainy Saturday evening. The service was great and the food was decent, for diner food. Since my meal came with soup or salad, I chose the house salad. It was a step up from other diners, with more ingredients besides the usual iceberg lettuce, onions, and cherry tomatoes. Our entrees were filling. However, I would not recommend their cheesecake for desert. I chose the version topped with strawberries. The cheese part of the cake was a little mushy and the strawberries were covered in red jelly slime. This was a big disappointment and I made sure that I told our waiter. It would have been much better with fresh strawberries, no jelly, and a touch of freshly made whipped cream. There is hope for future improvement, because our waiter mentioned that the cake was made in their premises.Give the Golden Dawn a try. It’s also worth noting that they have their own generator, when the power is out, and they draw their power from the large solar farm behind the diner.

Went here with my father and got breakfast after a long overnight shift. Bottomless cups of coffee and all the basics done great like omelets and such..my dad loves Rubens and ordered one and said it was just ok.

The food was very good and fast. The staff is very nice. Prices arent bad at all.

Everything was great the server was friendly and helpful. The food was very good as well. We went closer to the end of the evening but not once did we feel like we were getting pushed out.

Great place for breakfast and the staff make you feel welcome... I order the egg white omelet with feta cheese topped with grilled onions and pepper. Home fries, wheat toast, and coffee. Simply the best! The eggs are never scorched.

I live out of the area now. My family always ate there when I was a child. It is as wonderful as I remember. Had a nice dinner with my Mom. Foid was cooked perfectly.

Food was excellent and the service was wonderful. we would come back again.

I was so happy to go to a place the service was great..my hat off to the cook for well cooked meal and i love my love hot and that what i got with out asking or having to send back my food to be reheated. This is now my beat place to go to

Great food. Friendly service. Fair prices.My 8 yr old granddaughter loved the chicken strips and she doesn’t like anything!

We enjoyed our meals, but cant say we were blown away. Overall just a meh experience. Server was courteous and friendly, restaurant was clean and the food was fairly average, but good in portion size.

The seating area was well lit and clean. Service was quick and courteous. The food was prepared as ordered. The wait staff was attentive but not bothersome.

Best thing - they run on solar power! But dont worry, they have generators for rainy days too.Food was ok, just about what you get at any diner. Staff was extremely friendly and atmosphere is nice.

Always delicious. Great waitress.

No nonsense breakfast. Ordered a Pork Roll, Egg and Cheese on a bagel, got exactly that and excellent service, what more can I ask for?

Great food. Used to be my go to spot for breakfast. But prices are pricey.

We had our lunch in this diner when we got married. Bringing back memories. Friendly, respectful workers. Clean and fast service. My family and I always have a pleasant experience here. Thank you Golden Dawn!

Great steak and eggs, chicken strips and waffles at anytime.

Nice diner, very comfortable old school vibe and the food is delicious and you get plenty.

Onion rings are very delicious. Food order was prompt & popping hot.

Excellent food. I had fish tacos and my husband a meat lovers omelette. Everything was tasty, well cooked, and reasonably priced. Our waitress was pleasant and attentive. Good standard diner-fare coffee. Next time Im across the bridge in Jersey Ill definitely return to Golden Dawn for a bite!

Love Golden Dawn...food is awesome and the service is excellent!

Always clean and one of the friendliest staffs, ever! Ive always loved how hands on the owner is. He greets you and seats you, every day. Its no surprise that they have so many regular customers!

This was a flashback moment! Its been over 40 years since Ive been to the Dawn. Still good people and good food!

Great service good food and the coffee was the best

Waiter and waitress were both fine, waiter very friendly with my sister being she ordered take out many times. When time to pay, I gave my bill and $50 bill to the waiter. The waiter took the bill and placed it under the cash register tray and give me $6 change, saying thank you. I told the waiter that I gave him a $50 bill. HE LAUGHED, SAID, OH YOURE RIGHT, AND GIVE ME THE RIGHT BILLS BUT NOT THE CHANGE. ( I FORGOT TO ASKED HIM FOR IT) This is very unprofessional of this waiter who is representing Gold Dawn! Customers please be aware.

Weve been going to this diner for the past 30 years. During this time our food has always been great! The broasted chicken, pork chops, breakfast, the seafood platter and other items have been fantastic. The baked in-diner rolls, both cheese and cinnamon are always fresh. And dont be scared their nachos are actually very very good! Today though (heavy sigh) we switched our normal and went for the pot roast...redish sauce and what reminded me of sliced roast beef for sandwiches...ummm no! The red cabbage tasted as though they used cups of sugar in it! Again, no! So I switched to broccoli...HELP! It didnt taste like anything. It looked like broccoli but with zero flavor. The fish and chips was also ordered...(dont do it!).... The cream of turkey soup...where was the turkey? So the best part of tonights dinner was the nachos, the rolls and the salad, which is always fresh! Our waitress was great! I know some of the food is really good but some things I will never order again. In other words stay in your lane with what you know is good there! I anticipate our next visit will be great because Ill order the broasted chicken.

For all its worth, the best I can say is the Golden Dawn Diner is just alright. Their prices are higher than other diners in the area and they dont have anything unusual to offer on the menu. The food is decent but nothing exciting and Ive tried both breakfast and lunch there. Me personally, I prefer the Rt. 130 Diner, at least the food is exceptionally good there.

I got the Waxaca wrap. It was good! I just wish it came w/ ranch or some sauce on the side to dip.

Great food and great service. You gotta try this place.

Great food and lots of it, at great prices. Waitress was super, too. Very nice and cordial young lady !!!

Always good. Im 60 and Ive been going here since I was a kid.

Horrible! The service I received as well as the food I was given was just horrible! Chicken tenders were raw, and too small for the price!! 14 dollars for little chicken tenders??!! The gyro was just terrible. The only good thing was the fried shrimp, but the fries werent good either! We had also gotten the french onion soup and we heard the server saying,, what do you mean we have no more soup?! Instead of the server telling us, she had brought us soup that I can say tasted like they added beef base. Absolutely horrible! I do not recommend dining in this place for the service and the food is not worth your money.

Food is delicious.. portions are large for the price.Disclosure: Have only eaten breakfast here as it is on my way home from work. (overnight shift)

This was my boyfriends favorite spot. Itll forever now be where I go the most. Great service! Great food!

Has to be the cleanest restaurant I have ever eaten in . My only negative..its a diner and the coffee mugs are like mini mugs...you go to a diner you want a hearty cup of coffee!Had breakfast for dinner. It was good.I cant get over how spotless this place is...we will go back to Jersey and try it again!!!

Enjoy having breakfast with the family.

My family is always happy to eat here. Staff is friendly and the food is served fast. Barely ever a wait for a table, even on Easter Sunday

Oh my goodness I luv it there I always go there food is soooooo delicious me and my twins go there u will be blessed

Typical diner food. The service was great though

Quick service and good food.

Quick service very friendly, and clean.Thank you

Large portions at a great price. Food was delicious 😋!

The.breakfast..and service. Was.awesome

Me& my wife were here recently service was poor everything over priced $16 for a hamburger waitress slapped the check on the table didnt even asked us if we wanted dessert we felt like we were rushed

My husband and I favorite place to eat lots of good food for good prices. Its our main destination for a lunch date or a dinner date

Great food friendly owner

One of my favorite diners to eat at. Food is amazing.

I enjoyed my Breakfast in the morning The staff is very friendly

Fast friendly service, Great food with generous helpings.

Great service with great food. I would recommend this place.

Supreme.. Gorgeous. Perfect

Got delivery from them on grubhub. Spent almost 100 dollars. One of the meals was a plain waffle for like 8 bucks, with strawberries added for 2.70 it was literally 3 cut up strawberries. The waffle is wet. Grub hub dude left the food next to the door and didnt even knock so we didnt know it was sitting outside. Im very disappointed

Excellent food! The wait staff was unbelievable!!! Not only was our waitress efficient, accurate and personable but she was also very attractive and happy to wait on us. I would go this restaurant every week!

Great food and excellent service. My waitress was awesome. Thax again for great food.

Great food, friendly staff, except for the guy in the kitchen screaming at the servers.

Great food. Large portions. Friendly staff. Food is always ready and hot when promised. This is my go-to diner for take out in my area.

😱 amazing! Chicken Parmesan was awesome. Im told thats what theyre known for and now I know why!!

Very stingy with food. Had to go home and cook, still hungry.

Good food. Good staff. Good atmosphere.Go relax and enjoy a good meal, courtesy a good staff.

Great place, great serve, great food, Glad its open again inside my friend and I go there all the time for breakfast.

Was the first time back here in a long time, way better than it was before

Employees always so friendly and food is always nice and hot. Coffee is always fresh

Third time eating here since they started serving in parking lot due to covid19. All the customers are practicing social distancing. The food has been wonderful. The staff are awesome running around taken care of all there customers. Very impressed with this operation during these times!!!

Good food and plenty of it!

It was a rather nice experience. The food was good and we werent rushed when we were finished.

Great service and good size breakfeast!!!

Among the best Greek salads in South Jersey, and a cocktail too if you want one.

The cheese burger I ordered had only 1 thin slice of cheese on it, and no seasoning .

You always receive a warm welcome from the owner and my meals and servers have great. I love Grits rare to find on a breakfast menu theirs are the best

Good long island

Breakfast is reasonable foods good

Great service, during these tough times....thank you Diane and management!!

Good coffee... The pleasant server did his best to find something that was satisfying to this vegan. The veggie burger is not vegan- friendly, and the rest of the menu is positively atrocious. He even brought to me, without being asked, the label for the flatbread. I ended up with a grilled veggie panini, without the prescribed cheese. It was delicious. I never eat such things. Wish the management would consider adding anything healthy to their menu. I only went because friends were meeting. I wont return.Tines have changed for the better of our health & morals. Oldtime diners just cant catch up. Were nearing the end of these types of businesses as the consumers painfully die off.

Family oriented place... Love breakfast there

Thanks for the service this morning Karen! 🤗

Absolutely my favorite breakfast and any other time of the day go to,!! Great food and company 💕💞🍸🧁🎂

Always ask for Karen when shes there. Ive been going here ever sense i was little. Great food great place.

Best ice cream and workers are great

Always love coming here. Costas and his family have gone to great lengths for their customers as well as safety measures for the pandemic. Known the family for a very long time and they are always pleasant and friendly.

Nice diner to sit and have a Cosmo 🍸

Been coming here since a child always great service and delicious foods, cant go wrong with any selection on their menu!

Great food. Very nice waitresses. No waiting for someone to take your order. Been going here for more than 20 years. I really dont live that close anymore, but I go out of my way to go there. Great desserts! I love diners, and this one doesnt disappoint! Their specialty is chicken parmigiana. Its wonderful! Enjoy

While I have given a low rating, let me preface this by saying that this has been my favorite diner for almost all my life. I was on the little league baseball team them sponsored when I was young, and have the fondest of memories of going there for free desserts when we won the championship. They removed all of our pictures and trophies, and things have gone downhill over the years.I have gotten the veal parm here as my main dish about 95% of the time I visited. Everything is just done with poor standards now. My meal started with the snapper soup, which was served with a very clearly dirty spoon. You would have to go out of your way to not see the big dried on piece of food stuck on it. I was given a new spoon, and proceeded to try to eat the soup. I dipped the spoon into the soup, and I pulled up a long hair with the first bite. Needless to say, that was the end of that. The waiter offered to get me a new bowl of snapper soup, but I informed him that I couldnt be sure there wasnt more hair in the batch. I was given a shrug by the waiter, and the meal continued.The veal parm arrived, and it is a far cry from what it used to be. The portion is smaller, and it was tough to cut. I was starving, so I started eating. The waiter brought over the shaker of parmesan cheese, and I proceeded to try to sprinkle it over my veal and pasta. Nothing was really coming out, so I banged the shaker to maybe loosen a big piece clogging the holes. After a couple of unsuccessful attempts, I decided to take the lid off of the shaker. It was a disgusting brown mess. I literally would doubt it had been washed or cleaned in over a year. Someone has to fill that shaker on a somewhat regular basis, and no one decided it was dangerous or disgusting to serve that to a customer. If such basic things have major cleanliness and sanitation issues, I dont know how I could trust eating anything that comes out of that kitchen. They clearly dont care. The penne pasta was completely soggy and overcooked, to the point you could not pick up a single noodle without it pulling in to tiny shreds. At least I didnt see any hair in it.I got the check and decided to leave. I showed the manager at the register the picture attached of the disgusting cheese shaker, and told of the hair in my food. Nothing was taken off of the bill, not was anything offered as a comp replacement. Im not one that normally complains about food, but this was ridiculous.Ive been here hundreds of times over the years, and I sadly wont be back. The portions are smaller, the menu is considerably less than most other diners, and the standards for cleanliness are non existent. Im bummed that this is what was once one of my favorite spots has turned in to.

Good food, large portions
