Original Lyons Ave Spot
King’s #1 Family Restaurant is the original King’s #1 Family Restaurant at 361 Lyons Ave, Newark, NJ 07112. The address gives the restaurant a fixed point on Lyons Ave, with Beth Israel Hospital half mile away and Green Acres Recreational Center directly across the street.

A visit starts with the address, then the street view. Lyons Ave leads to the door, and the recreational center sits opposite the restaurant. That pairing makes the location easy to place in Newark without a long search. For diners who plan by neighborhood, the hospital reference gives a second anchor. The restaurant sits in a part of the city where a quick stop can fit around other errands.
The home page keeps the location clear because the name carries the word original. That detail matters here. It points to the Lyons Ave spot itself, not another place with a similar name. A diner looking for the Newark location can use the full address, then check the street position across from Green Acres Recreational Center before arriving.
Breakfast And Access
Breakfast is served all day. A morning order can come at the start of the day, and it can also come later, when the usual breakfast window has passed. The timing stays open through the full day, so a diner does not need to arrive early to order breakfast. The meal choice can stay simple or become the first plate of a longer visit.
Catering is available for any occasion. That service fits gatherings that need food arranged beyond a single table. A customer planning an event can use the restaurant for the meal side of the occasion, then build the rest of the plan around the guest count and the setting. The page also lists wheelchair-accessible car park, wheelchair-accessible entrance, wheelchair-accessible seating, and wheelchair-accessible toilet. Each access point supports a different part of the visit, from parking to the doorway, then into the dining area and the restroom.
The hours run Monday through Sunday from 7 AM to 8 PM. That daily schedule gives a clear arrival window. A diner can come in the morning, at midday, or near the end of the day, with breakfast still on the menu at any point in that span.
