I spent 2 years working in East Rutherford, NJ on the overnight shift. 3 12 hour shifts, Friday/Saturday/Sunday. Not a lot is open, at least back in the early 1990's. But the Tick Tock Diner...24 x 7 back then. Now, I wouldn't be able to enjoy a meal at Tick Tock during my shift as I'd go to lunch about 1 am. They are only open 7 am to 10 pm now. What a great diner! Their menu was ridiculously huge! My favorites are their Philly Cheese Steak and Tuna Club. Service back then, even at 1 am, was great! I don't miss working overnights, but do miss those lunches at the Tick Tock Diner!
as a Clifton, NJ local, I can confidently say that Tick Tock Diner is incredibly mid. everybody in my town knows that the way better option is to go a mile or two down allwood road to the Allwood Diner and you’ll have a much better experience there.
Thanks for the rec! Always appreciate getting a local tip. I found Tick Tock Diner good compared to most average diners in NJ but no surprise there are better local options there
Yeah! Though sadly most of the diners are dying out as people move on to more diverse, healthier, and newer styles of cuisine. Glad you enjoyed my Tick Tock video haha
My grandfather built and ran two diners on Long Beach Island, in south Jersey, so it is both sweet memories and good eats for me. The Barnegat Light diner is for sale after many years now. Great review!
Hey Bud, the crew over here just wanted to inform you that the pork roll at this diner isn't the "Taylor" brand. This unique flavor you experienced is a competitor called "CASE" pork roll. We believe but aren't entirely positive their manufacturing facility is in Trenton, NJ - Hope this helps Yo ! 👉. 🐷. 💯
I lived down the street from the Tick Tock on Passaic Avenue 30 years ago, and have great memories of eating there with my Dad when he came to visit. At any NJ diner, I would usually stick to the basics, usually a beer and burger or breakfast, and was never disappointed. At the beginning of the video, there was a brief shot of the VIP in Jersey City, my other "hometown diner" during the 4 years I lived in NJ. I went crazy when I saw the VIP on a Sopranos episode - Christopher Moltisanti took his girlfriend there for a late night meal.
Can't wait to catch this episode! I just had a conversation about how we're losing all the old school diners, and the Kellogg's in Brooklyn went into bankruptcy last week. There's only one left by me from the 5 or 6 I grew up with in Queens. Gotta keep them going!
Yeah it's definitely a shame that as newer different kinds of American restaurants open the old-school diners are dying out along the way. Hope the good ones can manage to stick around!
Recently I've been considering the number of diners as a factor in whether I want to travel somewhere. Good to know NJ has a lot. I might visit Atlantic City, I see they have a bunch there that look easy to get to. I liked the diners in Pittsburgh too, around the Strip.
UA - You missed the ham on the Grand Slam! The bacon looked like fire! :) Also, that said, the Mick Jagger looked absolutely epic. One thing I do, and I'll get roasted for this. Those disco fries could have used a little side of ketchup and pepper... There, I said it. :P
Great review as always UA, but I'm a little surprised to hear a foodie like you refer to Mrs, Butterworth's pancake syrup as maple syrup. That stuff is just chemicals, coloring and sugar water. The wife and I always take little bottles of real maple syrup when we eat out. It makes a world of difference.
Ah I have a bad habit of calling any syrup paired with pancakes maple syrup. Yes I'm aware Mrs. Butterworth is as generic as it gets and I shouldn't add "maple" in front of it
Agreed on both counts. UA always gives a fair, honest review and does so in a homey style, never sounding uppity or snooty with his reviews. But I also agree about referring to Mrs. Butteryuck as maple syrup. When I know I'm going to have pancakes in a restaurant, I take no chances by always bringing true maple syrup with me.
I knew you had a bit of a South Jerz accent. That must also explain the random Eagles gear in some vids. Anyway, looks like a nice spot. Yes its Pork Roll and the Disco Fries seem different depending on locality. Anyway cool vids, great reviews and #gobirds
Taylor Ham is a brand. You are right. It's Pork Roll. Cool show🤙. When I visit my fam. I'll definitely check it out. My family is in Spotswood, East Brunswick and Toms River🤙
The reasonable prices are highly subjective. As for real maple syrup, most restaurants have a surcharge for the real stuff, around $2 for 3oz. That is why when I do pancakes and French toast, it is done at home.
I thought for the size of the portions the prices were very fair, though I can't speak to the lunch items. I will say though that prices have gotten really high lately in general in North Jersey and NYC. Also I have a bad habit of saying "maple syrup" when referring to any syrup paired with pancakes, my mistake.
I’m a south Jersey guy myself. And like you said were the diner capital. My last count there was 527 in Jersey. And I’ve been to half. If you travel from the south to north on 47 you’ll hit a lot of great ones.
I love! I grew up with diners as my go-to, and most are now gone. Even in my neighborhood in Queens, one closed a few weeks ago. I have only 1 left, and I hope it holds out. The history and nostalgia that accompanies these places is amazing. Gotta say, I've had some drunk nights that were finished with disco fries and brown gravy! Their music sounds good, too.... Sussudio and Longest Time in there. I know you can't play it, but people will appreciate knowing there's good music. I grew up with the nickle jukebox at every booth in a diner! As always, another great review, and thanks for the memories!
Thanks for sharing your memories! Yeah where I grew up in South Jersey most of the diners have closed down in my town. Great restaurants have opened in their place but it is a bit sad
Hi. I live in Queens and often ride my motorcycle to diners. Yes a number of great diners have shutdown in recent times. Which one closed last? I used to love Seven Seas in long Island. They closed recently.
@@2Wheels_NYC Yes ride safe! I have a Zero FXS. It's electric. Top is 85mph. 0 to 60 in 4 seconds. I love it. No heat, no tuneups. At 60mph I get about 35 miles. City riding I get about 60 miles.
Hi UA! I have eaten at Tic Toc Diner several times. It was always excellent! The coffee is delicious. The salads are excellent. Their tuna is fantastic too. My one complaint is that nothing can be substituted for fries! For example if you get a tuna wrap but say no fries, you still pay the same price and if you order a side of veggies you pay the full side price. Shouldn't there be a lower price if the side is instead of fries? I began ordering salads to avoid the fry issue. But otherwise it is an excellent diner! I personally prefer diners to other kinds of restaurants for a number of reasons. Pricing is not an issue for me.
The best pancakes I’ve eaten are ones I get anywhere I have them in Las Vegas. Maybe it has something to do with the low humidity but they are great anyplace you eat them in L.V.
I prefer eggs on a separate dish from pancakes. Runny eggs ruin the pancakes for me. Prices seem high to me. Except the eggs with home fries, that was reasonable.
Ah you're up in Clifton this time. Tick tock is great. It's famous for the Sopranos. I wonder if they still serve disco fries there. Enjoy your meal UA.
Great review as always however I'm a Clifton native born and raised been out of the area since 98 now in Los Angeles glad to see the tiktok is still there but it's nothing like it used to be back in the hay day obviously not owned by Greeks anymore which the majority of New Jersey diners are they just know how to do it those Disco Fries were horrible the cheese wasn't even melt it and the Taylor ham egg and cheese sandwich not to get into that big debate between North and South Jersey with pork roll Taylor Ham conflict and the prices on the menu yikes the pancakes were definitely forgettable there are way better diners than the tick tock anyhow you should consider doing a comparison video of the famous hot Grill in Clifton compare to rutt's Hut that should be a good one for you to do Texas weiners hot dogs all the way !!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts as a Clifton native! Yeah I'm hearing consistently that Tick Tock has declined in quality but as an outsider I still enjoyed it. A hot dog vid is a good idea!
Years (decades) ago I would get disco fries and coffee when coming home from a late night out. The diner I used to frequent (Cedar Lane Grill, now gone) would serve the gravy in a coffee cup on the side. I drink coffee with milk. Many times I dipped my fries in coffee or took a nice slug of gravy.
I like UA's context and some of his reviews but I am having difficult watching more. Every new food, he closes his eyes tightly, chews frenetically and says "Ummm" and then "Aww" . You need a little more food reactions to make me want to watch more than 3 videos.
If you are not aware, New Jersey is almost as expensive as New York with their prices of food. It's just inflation so if you want to experience the Diner vibe, people will pay these prices.
We had breakfast at this diner recently. The food was OK, but when the check came I was flabbergasted by the total. Never again. There's an IHOP just east of the diner, located in an old Howard Johnson's restraunt, that makes a great breakfast at much more reasonable prices.
Pork roll and disco fries " you make a grown man cry" give Skylark in Edison a shot the lounge gets a little lively at nite with drink specials , Lunch or dinner shrimp and scallops and a Cuban sandwich with fries. Edison dinner right up the street breakfast good portions and price. 💜
I've never been before a few weeks ago so I'm not familiar with how it was before. I thought the prices, while not low, were reasonable for the portion sizes and for the NYC/North Jersey area
@@uaeats ok I went there when it was the older owners the original owners and I liked it much better. I went with the new owners one cent was unhappy with the quality and quantity of the food and the price
I personally find it a big turn off that the syrup came in those little pre-packaged containers. A real diner should serve syrup in a big ol' glass bottle.
You know it's a diner not owned by Greeks when the sausage isn't the fat links. I love diner food. Americana diner has steak fries which are my favorite.
4:19 OMG, my arteries are whimpering just looking at this! :) "prices really reasonable" I think I'm just visiting this plane of existence. I think UA just blew $35 (including tax, and before tip) in this place.
Ah well the prices are not cheap but I think for the huge portion it's worth it. I can't speak to the lunch items though. I've haven't tried them, though I will say they do look pricey...
I live in North Jersey and Tick Tock is massively overrated. Coach House and Chit Chat in Hackensack are both better IMO. Many say the best breakfast in North Jersey is at the Oakland Diner in Oakland.
Not really that expensive for what he got. I know some places that will charge $10 for two eggs toast and potatoes. Then add on another four dollars for bacon
@@petergoldberg6293 Agreed, I can't speak to the lunch items, but I thought the breakfast items were fairly priced considering the large portion size. Tasty too.

You hit the nail on the head.
Thanks for the rec! Always appreciate getting a local tip. I found Tick Tock Diner good compared to most average diners in NJ but no surprise there are better local options there
Agree with this sentiment
I dont believe another diner can top this menu in same quality/price
Didn't know New Jersey was the diner capital of the world. "I got my food like Jagger" made me laugh! 😂 Thanks for the Tick Tock recommendation.
Yeah! Though sadly most of the diners are dying out as people move on to more diverse, healthier, and newer styles of cuisine. Glad you enjoyed my Tick Tock video haha

I had some great experiences at the Court Square diner on Jackson in Long Island City.

Love me some karaoke!
During snowstorms, they usually have a reporter stationed there telling you not to go to work if you don't have to.

Ugghhh there is a big hair on the bottom of the fries @4:08
Yikes! I didn't see it at the time. I wonder if it's actually something else and just a bad angle?
@@uaeats Best case it's clothing fiber, but 99% it's a hair. No optical illusion I'm afraid.

4:07, that's definitely a hair on the fries in the bottom right corner.
I saw that too. How can he miss it
Whoa I did not see that at all
pancakes probably would get better if you would put the syrup on them along with the butter
That was great singing! What a hidden talent!
Really? Thanks!
you need to try real poutine. Quebec curds and gravy on fries...totally awesome...Canadian here..
Yeah Vancouverite here this is not even close to real Poutine like we have here

I’m waiting for when you will do a review of a Polish restaurant in Brooklyn.
Good idea!
Keep it going lover ur content.

Shoutout to Chit Chat Diner in West Orange for serving real maple syrup with all breakfast orders
Wow that sounds awesome!
what a great diner! maybe you can go back and try something else in the future. i watched this while hungry so my lunch is gonna be insane.
I definitely want to return and try something for lunch sometime. Hope your lunch was as epic as predicted!
The best pancakes I’ve eaten are ones I get anywhere I have them in Las Vegas. Maybe it has something to do with the low humidity but they are great anyplace you eat them in L.V.
Wow I know this diner I remember going here once more then ten years ago when I worked a few blocks away glad to see there still around
Yeah I hear most people from North Jersey have been at least 1-2 times
great review ,i like your site
Thanks!
I prefer eggs on a separate dish from pancakes. Runny eggs ruin the pancakes for me.

The do still have disco fries! I ordered some in the vid
@@uaeats Brings me back to my college days. Cheers!
Taylor ham is like spiced or chopped ham not bologna . Taylor brand is best but Case is OK. Classic diner . I remember when Mick Jagger was there
In Philly it’s called “Taylor Pork Roll”.
The TikTok diner!
Great video, love the singing,
, you should do it more 👏🏻💯
Thanks!
You're now the Jedi of buttering one-handed!
I have a high midichlorian count
Get some ketchup on that thang...
That pancake plate is average at best. To pay $16, you got ripped brotha.
makes sense!
Riveredge diner a couple miles north is the real spot.
the grand slam was a bit high, especially since they don't even provide real maple syrup.
the mick jagger seemed a fair value though.
Welcome to North Jersey 😎
UA wasn't there a piece of ham under the pancakes? I think you missed that on the review.
I did... Oops!
prices have been doubled
Great video. Greetings from Germany
Come on down in Montreal!! for the Poutine UA!!
I'll head up to Montreal sometime! It's definitely on my list!
Yumm your videos are great
Thanks! Glad you enjoy them!
was that a piece of grey hair on the fries?
Was this restaurant in the movie Goodfella's.
For the price they should give you real syrup, Mrs. Butterworth is crap, the first two ingredients are high fructose corn syrup and corn syrup
The portion was very large so I still thought it was a fair price. But yes the syrup was lame quality. Not unusual for diners though
That is one expensive pork roll, egg and cheese sandwich with some fries…..

Chit Chat Diner in Hackensack is the best. It's Taylor ham no aka
I went to the Tik Tok once, decades ago. Maybe it changed owners but my experience was nothing like yours. That's why I never went back
good job bro keep it up
I went to the one by 34th. Is that the same?
I wonder this too or if they are the same owners
It is a second branch but the Clinton, NJ location is the original location
UA can you please do a video on a pork roll as you are from south jersey ! Please
Good idea!
New Jersey version of Poutine :D. Looks so tasty!
Years (decades) ago I would get disco fries and coffee when coming home from a late night out. The diner I used to frequent (Cedar Lane Grill, now gone)
would serve the gravy in a coffee cup on the side. I drink coffee with milk. Many times I dipped my fries in coffee or took a nice slug of gravy.

It went downhill a long time ago.
Not the Tick Tock that many knew growing up in the
70’s, 80’s 90’s and then uhh oh 😣😖😫
I heard Tops was the famous one in NJ?
Heart Attack on a plate 😆😉.

Disco Fries Arwood got you pumped a frozen french fries with laid-out cheese on top come on kids step your game up it's okay to trash a little bit
Diners have so many items on their menus. But greek Diners usually give alot more
True. Gotta love those Greek diners!
Maple syrup comes from a tree. Aunt Jamimah and Log Cabin does not.
It will be disappointing for sure. Much smaller menu than they used to have. Prices are too high

True, though I've found it's not uncommon for a lot of diners to use cheap condiments
Disco fries 13$$$ Holy Shit! That is pricey!
Not sure how large the portion is. The ones that came with my dish though were a very large portion
You know it's a diner not owned by Greeks when the sausage isn't the fat links. I love diner food. Americana diner has steak fries which are my favorite.
Yeah the sausages were quite disappointing
$9 for fries!
4:19 OMG, my arteries are whimpering just looking at this! :)
"prices really reasonable" I think I'm just visiting this plane of existence. I think UA just blew $35 (including tax, and before tip) in this place.
Ah well the prices are not cheap but I think for the huge portion it's worth it. I can't speak to the lunch items though. I've haven't tried them, though I will say they do look pricey...
In Baltimore fries and brown gravy has been around forever!
fries and gravy has always been a thing here in toronto as well. way before poutine.
Sounds delicious!
I live in North Jersey and Tick Tock is massively overrated. Coach House and Chit Chat in Hackensack are both better IMO.
Many say the best breakfast in North Jersey is at the Oakland Diner in Oakland.
Thanks for the recs! I'll check those places out!
A little expensive dont you think?
Not really that expensive for what he got. I know some places that will charge $10 for two eggs toast and potatoes. Then add on another four dollars for bacon
