“Went there Saturday before concert.Atmosphere was excellent. The staff was excellent, first time there. Our server was very helpful with our questions. The drink selection was great. We ordered the crispy cola wings, great flavor but wings were over cooked and dried. The Chicago pizza was excellent, I order a sausage and ricotta pizza. My wife order mushrooms and truffle pasta, it was excellent. I found it better than the pizza. Great place and will return very soon.“
“First visit and the food was okay. Sliders were okay but could've used some cheese. Or a side of sauce. Onions were tasty. Jack Daniel was delicious. The Tropicolada drink was good although missing pineapples and cherries. Monte Cristo....hmm...not the typical Monte Cristo... wasn't fried...more of an open faced sandwich, missing powdered sugar and raspberry sauce. Dessert was great...ice cream with sprinkles. Service was good considering the waiter was new. Quiet environment...very chill ambiance.“
“This is a great spot for a date or special occasion. Dinner is Pre-Fix and the menu changes seasonally. The dining areas are very inviting. The staff was very detail oriented and just enough but not on top of you. Basically the service is impeccable. As for the food everything is timed great and everything we ate was awesome. I thought I might leave hungry initially but that was not the case. Must go to spot for a romantic dinner“
“I’m hesitant to even write a review because I consider this place a true hidden gem! With so many options in the area I find myself forgetting about Turtle & Wolf until after my recent visit it sprang to the top of my list!I went for a birthday celebration and my friends and I shared a bunch of dishes. Everything was so well executed, the portions were generous and we just had such a lovely evening. Cannot pass on this adorable BYOB.“
“My wife and I walked into LK for the first time and the hostess greeted us and said "sit anywhere you'd like".....what restaurant ever says that, we were hooked right away. We both shared a caesar salad, it was delicious. My wife ordered pasta with sausage. That too was delicious, I had the pasta with cherry tomatoes and crab meat, absolutely delicious. When our order came, we immediately got fresh pepper and before I could even ask for fresh cheese, a gentleman was waiting behind me with the cheese. I mean, c'mon the place has a great food, great service and a nice chill atmosphere. I think we just found our go-to restaurant.“
“I've been looking for a local, full service coffee shop that roasts their own beans, sells coffee/espresso, as well as offers breakfast and lunch.**This IS that place**I couldn't tell from their website, but the posts I saw on insta showed that they serve food, and I'm happy to report that it tastes as good as it looks!Very friendly staff and accommodating. Although it's currently the middle of December, I wanted a macchiato over ice, which wasn't on their menu, but when I asked they happily said 'of course'.Seems like I'm going to have to sign up for their points system because I can tell I'm going to be back here a whole lot more.I'm particularly interested in sampling their beans, just wish i didn't have to buy an entire bag of beans. Why don't these local roasters sell sample packs, allowing you to still purchase a pound of beans, but separated into small batches with samples of each bean type? This would allow me to quickly figure out which bean I want to try without having to buy a single large bag and take a month to go through coffee I don't really like before trying the next type . . . Or maybe i should start roasting my own beans and do this method . . .Anyways, I really like the space they have, they've really made the most of it, very cozy and inviting.Can't wait to go back“
“We had early reservations tonight and we were the first diners. When we walked in the waitress told us that we had to be done in 90 minutes. My wife and I are fairly quick eaters. But when I hear something like that it can suck the enjoyment out of the dining experience.Putting that aside, we had great appetizers and main dishes. The deserts were not on par with the previous two courses.We have eaten at Bloom several times since the summer time and had enjoyed it. I don’t think that we will be rushing back.“
“A gem in the neighbourhood. A friend and I were visiting Jersey City from South Africa and NDP was just down the road from our B&B. We had the most wonderful dinner there, with James, the owner explaining how he and his wife started the little restaurant. The food was exceptional and we were able to order a bottle of wine from a winery close by, which was delivered in minutes. Absolutely worth a visit!“
“our absolute favorite restaurant almost anywhere. Best described as new American comfort Food with the twist. The chef is phenomenal. The service is also wonderful and attentive. A generous poor of wine. Prices are reasonable. Highly recommend.“
“I absolutely love this place! From the food, atmosphere and customer service. I have used them twice to cater my baby shower and a recent birthday party. Zinna the owner is super sweet, professional, punctual. She truly wants the customer to be happy and checks in with you. My family and friends loved the food and I will always use them in the future.“
“The meal was perfectly cooked:FlatbreadSalmon (allergy sensitive)LambFilet & lobsterThe service was exceptional, attending to the allergies of my family and ensuring we were all able to enjoy our meals.Deserts were delicious, and left us wanting a little more, portions were small but perfect.Ambiance is little more upscale than average dining.Dietary restrictions: Chef went above and beyond to ensure allergies were catered to.“
“Adam Weiss's talents shine through in every dish on his menu. The combination flavors and unique preparations keep us coming back time after time. Tonight's carrot soup special and arctic char were simply amazing. Adam's cheesecake is still my hands down favorite ever. Hedy is the perfect hostess- we should all have a Mom like her in our corner! So grateful to have this gem in our backyard.“
“This was my very first time coming to Borelli's and I'm so glad I did, it features a wonderful staff, wonderful food and a warm & friendly owner who has 6 grandchildren! My lovely date and I sat at the bar and got the last two available stools; it's a cool, small U-shaped bar with a lot of friendly people that are regulars there and they helped us make wise menu selections as did the owner. We started out with Bluepoint oysters that were just splendid and progressed to Bareli's meatball dish, which is definitely a must if you go, a few lovely Chianti Classicos for me and Pinot Grigio for my date, we were happy as a lark, we'll back tonight to see Lonnie Youngblood perform which I couldn't believe, he's 87 years old and still gigging. Somebody buy this man a gold watch! We were also told that the Italian pork chop here is not mind blowing superb. Two. Thumbs up kiddos.“
“Wonderful experience. We had no idea what to order, so Modupe (the owner) surprised us. I only wish I could have eaten more! My daughter who can be picky was so happy with her shrimp and fries that she drew Modupe a picture. Highly recommend!!“
“I attended a group dinner here at the end of January. While the food was amazing, I was most appreciative of the service. We were made to feel special and it really helped to elevate the experience. And I haven't stopped thinking about the parmesan cauliflower bites - so good!!!“
“IMO, this is the best diner in the Lyndhurst/ North Arlington area! The food is amazing, the staff is always welcoming and friendly, and the service is top notch. The atmosphere is cozy and warm, with a retro feel and oldies playing on the sound system.I take my family here regularly for bunch and it's always a treat for us!“
“Charley is hands down my favorite restaurant in the Harrison area. From the food, the vibes, to the great cocktails, whatever you choose, you can’t go wrong. Jay behind the bar and Sam on the floor really elevate the experience by providing quality service. 10/10 highly recommend.“
“This a 5 star review because it hit all of the check marks. You simply cannot get the same value you will get here anywhere else.Firstly, the staff is family, and very welcoming and accommodating. They Truly care about the restaurant, its legacy and there foodA very comfortable environment with 80's/90's country music playing and a homey feeling dining room. I felt like I went my cousins for dinner and coffee.Our waitress was one of the owners and helped me select some craft brews they offered. Very generous and appreciated.The Buffalo Wings are excellent. Cooked right and in a thinner sauce with a little zing but not overpowering.Our dinners were the Godfather Trio (Veal, Shrimp Parm and Eggplan Rollantini) and the 16oz Sizzling steak.The Italian Trio was a good portion and had a nice sauce, very filling and a very reasonable price.The Steak was better than some steakhouses and "higher-end" restaurants that like to charge $40-$60 for it.The steak was PERFECT! And for a price point under $30 is one of the best bargains you can find! Flavor was amazing and cooked expertly!We finished with coffee and the Chocolate Mousse Cake & Cheesecake. Well worth it and again; a price you can't beat.We even took home dinners for work the next day. It was that good.This is a Gem and a throw back to how things used to be and should be. Where your welcomed in and treated like a guest in a home and fed a wonderful meal.***Keep in mind - Cash Only But the have anATM on site. Not a big deal.Head in and enjoy. I'll definitely be back!!!“
“to start off the service is amazing . staff is super helpful and accommodating making sure customers are satisfied. they have a wide selection of food, so there is always something to order for everyone, even those who are more picky than others. they also have live music and restaurant is very spacious and great for a date night, family/friend get togethers. always down to go here and i’m not even from new jersey!“
“This place is WONDERFUL. I came here with my son after spending the afternoon at Urban Air Adventure Park. We got two half box orders of boneless thighs (original crispy and soy garlic/sweet & spicy), fries, and water. The chicken took about 15-20 minutes to cook, but it was well worth the wait. My son (the pickiest eater in the world) LOVED the boneless thighs, and even the French fries. I thought everything was seasoned and cooked to perfection. The flavors were all fantastic, with the soy garlic being my favorite. The fries were also some of the best fries I've ever had. Super crispy on the outside but fluffy on the inside. The food also came with Cole slaw which was DELICIOUS, and I say this as someone who normally strays away from Cole slaw.Customer service was excellent. The woman at the front was very friendly and clear with describing the food. Their presentation was top notch also. The food was packaged beautifully and even the bag it came in was just really well designed. It was like opening a holiday gift of delicious food. I would highly recommend paying this place a visit, although you'll probably have to do take out since they have limited seating. That's probably the only downside I can think of, but they still deserve 5 stars overall“
“My partner and I love ordering from here. We live in the neighborhood and it’s so convenient to have a place like this we can walk to for something delicious at a great price. I don’t think you could go wrong ordering anything off their menu; their pizza is the perfect Jersey pizza, their burritos are huge and taste SO fresh, and their cheeseburgers are like In N Out but WAY better quality. They also have desserts and the chocolate cake I tried was great. Love Aileen’s “
“Mandatory tip of 20% if you spend over $100 with a credit card. They don’t tell you, so a lot of my friends and colleagues were double tipping for over a year - the staff doesn’t say anything. Otherwise, best vibes of any bar, amazing food, amazing drinks, amazing music, amazing ambiance.“
“This place is absolutely golden! They make great drinks and the food is honestly amazing. Drinks can be a tad bit pricey but they’re great cocktails! The service is top notch and plenty of seating! Def worth going if youre ever in the Nutley area!!Wings are great and nachos great“
“The Carriage House Restaurant is literally steps from the PaperMill Playhouse. Great to stop in prior to a performance. The atmosphere is best described as "cozy and rustic". I've stopped in about 2-3 times for drinks and appetizers. The food has always been very tasty. Little on the pricey side. On a positive note, you're only a few steps away from the theater. As of now, I've had Chicken Sausage Appetizers and a Steak Quesadilla. Nice wine and cocktail list. We've enjoyed their wine and cocktails on a previous visit. In December '23, I had an issue making reservations. Left two telephone messages and never received a call back. I couldn't even make a reservation on Opentable or Resy. We stopped in and informed the hostess of the issue. Anyway, we ended up eating at the bar. The Carriage House Restaurant does offer Cabaret and Murder Mystery shows.“
“Good food, nothing overly special but solid good bar foodConvenient locationQuick serviceThe sweet potato fries and the vampire tacos were the highlight in my eyesDefinitely recommend especially if you are in the area for a movie night to grab some food before/after“
“We love going to Subia’s! We’ve been here a few times and it’ll probably be one of our weekend brunch go-to spots. Subia’s is definitely the best vegan brunch spot in New Jersey! The food is so delicious!! I love the triple decker sandwich and the blt with cheese sandwich. The breakfast wrap is also so flavourful.The staff are so friendly and nice, which makes for a great experience all around.I’m excited to try other menu items! They have a lot on their menu, more than I expected for a cafe, but everything we’ve tried so far has been great.Vegetarian options: Menu is all veganDietary restrictions: Gluten-free options“
“This is right around the corner from me and encapsukes everything I love about local businesses. Simple enough eats with some interesting twists. Not too pricy with new interesting specials every few weeks. Quickly, it has become a staple that my family and I visit on a monthly basis.“
“We absolutely love Sage. We do a lot of take out. The short ribs with rigatoni and ricotta is absolutely delicious. My husband is a chicken parm person and enjoys that every time. The salmon dishes are very good as well as the shrimp. The fried calamari with the ti sauce is not to be missed. We've held graduation from college party at Sage and food always a hit. The gentlemen at the front has been there for years may be owner super nice man and always pleasant.“
“I just had the best experience at Q'tal! Our server was so attentive but also gave us space to talk and catch up. She was so kind and everything she recommended was delicious. I highly recommend the jackfruit croquettes and the sliders which I love that they have vegan options for someone like me. I'm not sure of the name it was a passionfruit cosmo type drink and I didn't even realize it came out with a dry ice bubble. 10/10 for presentation on everything and ambiance. They have a dining area which feels a little more formal ( the chairs were so comfy by the way) and then a bar area with high tops which I think would be great for a girls night. I already can't wait to go back!“
“Visited this location for the 1st time on a Sunday. There was zero wait time and we were greeted immediately. Val was our server. She offered beer samples and put together a flight for me based on my taste preferences. Her service was world-class. I had the whiskey glazed salmon. The restaurant was clean, there are plenty of TV's and the beer selection is unreal.“
“Recently had our Wedding Ceremony and Reception here at The Chandelier. The location is beautiful, the service was good and the food was AMAZING. Everyone that came enjoyed the food. They have multiple areas depending on the size of your event. The best part of all was the venue being extremely affordable. Our vision was brought to life here and we were extremely satisfied with the venue. Thank you!“
“Our dining experience at Houlihan's restaurant in Paramus, NJ, was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we stepped in, we were greeted with a warm and welcoming atmosphere that set the tone for a memorable evening.The menu offered a great variety of options, and each dish we ordered exceeded our expectations. I had the stuffed chicken breast accompanied by asparagus and mashed potatoes, which was cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. My son thoroughly enjoyed his chicken wings and fries, while my wife savored her top sirloin steak paired with a loaded baked potato. Our friend visiting from Ireland, a lovely lady, was delighted with the fish and chips, which she claimed rivaled those back home.The quality of the food was exceptional, and the presentation was equally impressive. Each dish was beautifully plated, showcasing the care and attention to detail that went into its preparation.The service at Houlihan's was attentive and friendly, adding to the overall positive experience. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and provided excellent recommendations, making our dining experience even more enjoyable.Overall, our dinner at Houlihan's was a resounding success. The combination of delicious food, friendly service, and inviting atmosphere made for a great evening out. If you're looking for a fantastic dining experience in Paramus, NJ, look no further than Houlihan's. Highly recommended!“
“UPDATED 3/19/24 PM:The manager reached out and was fantastic about making this right. He said he’s investing time into improving their consistency and offered to buy me dinner to test their improvements later on. Give these guys a shot, they’re good people and do right by their customers.(2 stars) ORIGINAL 3/19/24 AM:I hate to do this but these guys just can’t get out of their own way. We order from here all the time - it’s convenient and generally has healthy options - but they cannot ever get it right. They are so inconsistent - I can’t remember the last time we didn’t have an issue with an order. Yesterday was my tipping point, they completely left out an item and my chicken came undercooked. I called numerous times to get a refund on those two items and was met with a “let me talk to my manager” with no follow up. Can’t get anything through their delivery app either.A few weeks ago we got two island bowls with undercooked hard rice.The food is good, they just aren’t consistent at all. We’d order every night from here if they could perform consistently.“
“I like Maggie’s now. They’ve updated the menu. I got the ginger sesame orange salad it was delicious. Next time I won’t get shrimp on it because it was too big. I thought it would be popcorn shrimp. I do like the option of adding protein like chicken. The place is always packed and very loud though. Don’t get the fish and chips, not great. Probably better for takeout.Dietary restrictions: They make changes to your order if you request it.“
“Definitely sit outside if you can! Even if it's cold. The heaters work well enough that you don't need a jacket. Our server Marisa took great care of us. She had great menu knowledge and was friendly and quick. Everything we ate was delicious. I wish the French toast could come in a half portion, though :)“
“We love Luna Stella - such an underrated gem right in the heart of Maplewood! Cute outdoor patio/garden area in the back with plenty of seating, and the food is always excellent, as is the service. We've never had a bad meal here and will continue going back, especially when the weather is nice and we're looking for an outdoor dining spot!“
“The service and atmosphere were excellent and the food was very good. The scallop and octopus appetizers were excellent. Duck entree was well above average. The bread pudding for dessert was also delicious. Would highly recommend this restaurant.“
“THIS PLACE IS PHENOMENAL!!!!The other day I went to, Village Street Eatery, for breakfast. It was absolutely amazing! I got their Corn Beef Hash Breakfast Wrap & on a separate occasion I got their Taylor Ham, Egg, & Cheese with extra meat and three eggs. Both items were a real treat! Their Taylor Ham, Egg, & Cheese was really really tasty, and the Taylor Ham had a wonderful crisp to it accompanied by a lovely crunch around around the edges. The best of the two was the Corn Beef Hash Breakfast Wrap! The Corn Beef was extremely flavorful and the potatoes they added to the wrap were seasoned and tender. The Corn Beef Hash Breakfast wrap is an exemplary to-go breakfast item. I thoroughly enjoyed both! The staff is really kind, and the customer service was amazing. The ambiance is impeccable as well too, makes you want to sit down and enjoy your breakfast. I would HIGHLY recommend, Village Street Eatery, to anyone in the Maplewood area. Their Corn Beef Hash Breakfast Wrap is a must try!“
“Best breakfast in Newark! Legendary spot! Every time I come to my hometown, I try my hardest to make it here! All of the food is amazing! The staff is personable, fun, and easy to talk to. My family and I love us some Mr. Burgundys!I normally scrap the plate but this morning baby !! That food was soooo good!I’m like I need to write a review !“
“The food is just so amazing. My family and I go here for breakfast even though it’s out of our way. The service and staff is the best. Get there early or risk waiting, because everyone who go there once knows that Sweet Basil is the best.“
“Royal Taste Restaurant offers an explosive Jamaican culinary experience. The jerk chicken, boasting an authenticity level of 876%, delivers a flavorful punch. The curry goat mesmerizes with its aromatic buzz and rich taste, while the oxtail seals the deal on satisfaction. The well-executed fried chicken adds another layer of delight. With an extensive menu, this spot promises a continued journey of delectable discoveries. A must-visit for those craving an authentic taste of Jamaican cuisine.“
“Went to the dance party on 2.23.2024 with DJ Eddie Wild Worm. The restaurant was full with everyone dancing to Eddie's music. The drinks were large and strong, the food fresh and perfectly cooked, and the service team was attentive and quick.“
“Must try the Huevos rancheros and crepe pancakes! Don’t do the half stack of pancakes, they are thin so a full plate is great to share, very tasty! Coffee tastes like diner burnt coffee but the food is amazing! Quick service and great prices ! They do charge $1.50 for sharing plates.“
“We recently held a memorial service for my father at The Old Canal Inn. Mark and his staff were professional, detail oriented, and kind. The food and atmosphere were incredible. They welcomed us and our guests like family. My dad loved to go there for a beer and I understand why. I will visit there every time I am back in the area from Massachusetts. I can't recommend The Old Canal Inn highly enough.“
“Absolutely fabulous food, but maybe we came on an off day, because wait times after sitting down were pretty crazy long. We had a reservation but waited about 30 minutes to have our order taken. Food took quite a while too, but once we received it, it was absolutely delicious. Eggs Benedict 10/10, fresh ingredients. French toast 9/10, fantastic but not filling. Coffee was fab too.“
“I visited Just Jake’s on a Friday evening for a live band performance and had a good time. There are no waiters, tables or chairs, just a big dance floor near the stage and a bar so everybody was dancing and having fun. There was a $8 cover charge and the price of the drinks were reasonable. Staff was friendly and it was easy and quick to get drinks.“
“The Highlawn made my twin daughters’ B’Mitzvah a huge success. The place and view are spectacular, the food is outrageous, and Gianna who booked us and Jose the banquet manager were so accommodating and flexible. They bent over backwards to answer all my questions and make my vision happen. The party was amazing and the guests are still calling to tell me how amazing The Highlawn was. Such a great experience working with such professionals!!!!I would recommend The Highlawn for any party, large or small!“
“The manager and the staff were super accommodating to our party who came last minute without a reservation. The entire place was extremely nice, and the whole experience was super affordable as well. We stayed there as long as our party needed, and everyone was so kind and hospitable.Parking: There is a parking lot that is on the block around the corner however, you just have to search for it because they sure a lot with another facility“
“When you hear "perfect neighborhood bar" what do you think of? Because I think of unfussy food, strong drinks, reasonable prices, and a welcoming atmosphere. Oh look at that, Brightside Tavern checks all 4 boxes.What's that? Entertainment (jazz night, open mic, karaoke) multiple nights a week? Sports on TVs all around the 360-degree bar? Brunch every day from 9-4? Happy hour ever weekday from 3-7? Kitchen open late (I mean LATE)? Music loud enough to take the edge of life off but not loud enough to make it impossible to talk? The owner (Tommy 2 Scoops) makes an effort to know and welcome everyone who visits? Everyone is welcome as long as you're good to each other?You probably get the idea by now. I can't think of one thing this bar doesn't make convenient. The Brightside Tavern might be Jersey City's best neighborhood bar. You don't need a reason or an excuse to go here, just do it.“
“As a regular customer of the restaurant, I have always admired Danielle's dedication to excellent service and flavorful dishes. So, when it came time to plan my daughter's graduation party in the park for 100 guests, I knew exactly who to trust for catering - Danielle and her team!Right from the start, Danielle proved herself to be a true professional. Punctuality is often overlooked, but not with Danielle's catering service. She arrived on time and fully prepared to set up without any hiccups or excuses. The efficiency and seamless coordination of her staff were remarkable, allowing me to step away from the setup for an hour, knowing that everything was in capable hands.One aspect that truly impressed me was Danielle's attention to detail and foresight. The unpredictable weather forecast made us anxious about rain during the event, but Danielle had it all under control. Her team was prepared with umbrellas for the grill, ensuring that rain wouldn't dampen the spirits of our guests or the grilling process.As the party unfolded, the compliments from my guests started pouring in. They were captivated by the impeccable presentation and, most importantly, the outstanding quality of the food. Danielle's catering service offered a delectable range of dishes that catered to different tastes and dietary preferences, leaving every guest satisfied and asking for more.I can't express how many guests requested Danielle's contact information for their upcoming events. It's a testament to her exceptional catering service, which not only impressed me, a seasoned customer, but also left a lasting impression on everyone at the party.Without a doubt, I will be hiring Danielle for all my future events. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and delectable creations guarantee a successful and memorable occasion. If you're searching for a catering service that goes above and beyond, look no further than Danielle's. I can vouch for her excellence, and I am confident you'll be just as delighted as I am.“
