If you or someone else is reading this thread and is looking for breakfast at a non-diner, the only time I went to Abruzzo was for breakfast. It was a random drop-in, but I have to say I thought the breakfast was really good.
I actually look forward to eating the Garden State Diner. It is hard to find a good American breakfast at an airport. The only downside is there is not a ton of space if you have bags. The tables are fairly tight. But the food is consistently good, the service is usually quick, and the prices are not bad for airport food.
