So many options for breakfast and lunch. We had breakfast. I had creamed chip beef with home fries and two eggs, took half home. Husband had sweet potatoe pancakes and corned beef hash, totally gone! It was all so so good. Decent prices. Very nice staff. Definitely will go again.

Friends, I have found breakfast nirvana in the unassuming walls of Gary's Homestyle Eatery! This place is so low-key you might just drive right past it, but inside is Southern comfort food that rivals the best of Texas and Georgia.
As a renowned food guru who lives for a hearty morning meal, I've had my share of lauded grits, pancakes, and the like. But Gary's chip beef on toast with a side of cheese grits left me floored. The deftly seasoned, tender chip beef melting into the crispy buttered toast created a mouthparty not to be believed. And the creamy, velvety grits with just the right amount of sharp cheddar made me weep with joy.
My local friend Rachel, who's been coming here for 30 years, implored me to try Gary's despite its humble appearance. And wow, was she right - this place delivers scrumptious Southern fare that exceeds any high-falutin' upscale breakfast joint. The prices are an unbelievable steal, too, since Gary focuses on affordability rather than inflating costs just because they've got a stellar rep.
Within those unpretentious walls, I found the breakfast of my dreams. The warm, welcoming atmosphere and top-notch fare will make Gary's a regular stop on my foodie bucket list travels. Fair warning, the classic Southern cooking is dangerously addictive - I went two days straight after that first heavenly chip beef bite!
So do yourself a favor and get to Gary's stat. Once you become a regular and "everyone knows your name, you're gonna be where you wanna be" and you'll never crave breakfast anywhere else again. Five blissful stars!

I'm just hear to pay it forward!

Food was great, we stopped in on the way out of Atlantic City. The food quality was awesome, you can tell they care about what they plate. Coffee and iced tea were the best we have had in a while at a restaurant. Casual environment, the staff was great.

1st time here.. The food and service were perfect! We will be repeat customers when in the area. A hidden gem!!

This place is a must visit when in the area. The owner, Gary, is almost always in the restaurant, which is likely a big contributor to why it hasn't gone downhill like so many other places. The food is consistently good and priced reasonably. The servers are fast and friendly. The best diner-like, home cooked food in NJ. Been eating at his restaurants since I was a kid.

When the first choice had too long of a wait, we checked Yelp and found Gary's. Im glad we did, because the staff was awesome. Attentive and yet not overbearing. The food was hot, delicious and plentiful. The menu had a nice variety to choose from. We met Gary on the way out and what a friendly guy! We will definitely be back to try lunch one day, as it is literally less than a mile off the AC expressway and before the Garden State Parkway.
