Old School Diner

Good prompt Service. It's pretty funny to watch the staff dance. The shakes, chili fries and burgers are good. everything is pretty much good (a step up from regular fast food).

• Pros: Good fast food
• Cons: Parking

Fun and Fast Service

by Hobtra

I was surprised when I ate here for the first time a few months ago. The burger was delicious, but the atmosphere made it all the more enjoyable. If you want fast food with a bit more flare, it's a fun place to go with kids or friends in Hoboken. There aren't too many spots in this town that has a no frills appeal and that are well lit.

• Pros: The wait staff sing
• Cons: The wait staff sing (only kidding, it's very entertaining)

A neon-lit trip back to the Eisenhower era comes with burgers, shakes and fries.

In Short
Vintage Coca-Cola ads and posters of Life magazine covers succinctly summon up the 1950s, as do this diner's mini-jukeboxes, red vinyl counter stools and sock-hopping staff. Besides fast food staples like hot dogs, cheeseburgers, tuna melts and onion rings, options like the Streamliner (a grilled veggie patty) acknowledge more modern dietary concerns. Even better for kids, sandwiches come wrapped in paper jackets and nearly everything is served on paper plates. No spills. No breaks. No tears.

good place

by b0ssladie

I like this location because they are prompt with the food. They also do their little dance, which is funny to watch since they look 'thrilled' doing it (sarcasm). The chili is good, chili fries are good, burgers are good. everything is good. Downside is that it is so hard to find parking around this area (that goes for all of hoboken). Also, peak times can make you wait for a table for over 15 minutes. Overall, with prices like that it's worth it.

• Pros: food and prices
• Cons: parking;wait times; limited seating, can be cramped

Cute, decent food

by cbngrl

Nice place to bring your kids. BLT is pretty good and so are the burgers. However, if you ate here every day you'd weigh 400 lbs.

Johnny Rockets has great food. The service is great and you really can't beat the ambiance. The 50's style burger joint makes everyone feel good!
