Rinse it out well next time. I ordered broiled scallops-steak combo. The scallops did not taste right. They appeared to have a "bleach" like taste.

matthews serves garbage the food is usually terrible, especially their dinners, and the waitstaff is paid a paltry $2 per hour..the kids from ridgewood and waldwick are obnoxious and their parents are even bigger jerks, i've seen kids leave pennies for a tip..and humiliate the waitresses, the owners could care less, as long as the can live in their mcmansions....lousy food

Not Teen Friendly Chocolate chip pancakes and cheese fries are awesome but it is not kid friendly. They dont like big groups of teens or kids with out parents. They also have a minimum.

My favorite Diner Love this place! They are great for a late night snack, or a nice weekend brunch. Their chocolate mousse cake is the best I've ever tried and the prices are very resonable.
