The Greeks - Kearny

If you like old-school diners with a big personalities and this is the place for you. I love the chemistry between the staff and the customers here. You know who the usuals are! It’s kinda like sitting in your friend’s kitchen with a big family. The food is always satisfying and so is the experience. This is my go to spot. The coffee always hits the spot and so does the atmosphere Try the Greek fries, they will rock your socks.

Unfortunately this restaurant was sold and then unceremoniously closed in the middle of lunch time by the new owner. She called the police and had her hard working staff and paying customers removed while she laughed and made fun of everyone. Apparently she felt the Greeks was competition for her small bakery around the corner. As of Friday July 12 the Greeks was closed.

As a long time Kearny native, the Greeks is a staple to our community. From seeing other people from town, the long time crew that works there, every experience is unique and wonderful. The staff there is great, always making great food from soups, to sandwiches, breakfast; you name it, it tastes great. I have been coming by for so long that they don't even take my order anymore. It's a great place to try.

A Kearny Classic, always the best quality and friendly atmosphere..oh and the Sweet Home New Jersey Sandwich... the best anywhere

Finally had the chance to stumble on in to The Greeks in Kearny, NJ today for what some people consider the best Jersey Meat/Egg/Cheese in the state!! I don’t care to argue over the name of it. Call it pork roll, call it Taylor ham, call it your aunt sally…I say Jersey Meat to avoid the argument. This may or may not be the best one I’ve had, but it’s absolutely in the conversation. 7 slices of controversy with two eggs and plenty of cheese on a delicious NJ fresh Kaiser roll. This sandwich is exactly $10 and this establishment is cash only. I am perfectly okay paying $10 for this with that much protein going on. The Greeks Didn’t Suck!
