“ It was our first time eating at Eastgate Family Restaurant. We were seated quickly, and our server came over to greet us right away. We love small locally owned establishments, and this place did not disappoint. Their home fries were fantastic, as well as the other food. We will definitely go and eat there again. ”
“ Classic American food in a family atmosphere that's hard to find these days. Table seating and lunch counter. Great for breakfast and plate lunches. ”
“ The three of us have been traveling for hours. It was getting late in the day. All we wanted was a good home-cooked meal. And to our delight, that's exactly what we got! When we arrived, we were greeted on the outside of the restaurant by a picture on the window of the Cross of Christ at the Eastgate in Jerusalem. What a statement! On the door leading in, were the American flag and military insignias. As Christians, and I am a member of a 5 generation military family I knew at once we were in the right place. We didn't realize they were in their last 30 minutes before close. But when we came through the door the owner himself greeted us and showed us to our table as if we were there at the beginning of his day. The food was fine homey-cooking! The atmosphere was sweet. There was no rush for us to leave as there were several tables with folks not ready to head home either. What a wonderful pearl of great price to find on the road. I would highly recommend them and if you are on the road you might want to stop by for a fine meal too. ”
“ My boyfriend & I wanted to meet up for breakfast on my days off in Henderson as he’s working night shift 7P - 7 A in Sebree & I live in Newburgh. So I googled breakfast restaurants in Henderson & found this little gem!! As soon as we walked in you could just tell it was a good place to eat!!! This was on a Thursday morning. The portions was HUGE!! The coffee was good!!! The prices was amazing!!! The service incredible!!! This place was so good we went back on Friday!!! I think we may have found “our place”pics are from both days. ”

I recommend Eastgate highly for a good meal at a reasonable price. I will eat here again soon!! ”
