Tick Tock Diner, an iconic symbol of the American diner with locations in both Midtown Manhattan and Clifton, New Jersey, has mastered the art of casual dining, providing customers with high quality ingredients, generous portions at a reasonable price and a comfortable, family-friendly atmosphere that keeps them coming back year after year.

Tick Tock Diner has long been known for its American comfort food. Today, it remains true to tradition while offering more dining choices than ever before on its extensive menu, accented with Italian, Greek and Tex-Mex influences.

    Our server, Jose, was the best. He was attentive, entertaining and patient. Her ember our four orders without even writing them down. He came back to check on us constantly. The food was good and the nearness to public transportation excellent.

    Spacious and convenient to the A train and MSG, but that's about all it's got going for it. Service was extremely slow. In our group of 5, three meals were solid, two were over cooked.

    The food was good but not very aesthetically pleasing. There’s a very rushed feel about the place and I felt the price of the food was quite high for what you get.
