“First time at Clyz since new ownership. Was a St. Patty's Day work celebration so no ordering from regular menu but rather a buffet setup with about 7 different dishes. Food was good. Service was great from waitress coming around for drink orders. They had orange whiskey for my fav orange whiskey mule! I and the coworkers I spoke to would have preferred not having the lights dimmed as it was way too dark and there was no need for such "mood" lighting.“

“Very well stocked bar (tested only visually :) ) and delicious burgers served from the hotel kitchen. The settings are good for sitting at the bar, soli at a high table, or at a regular restaurant table. The menu is not very long but I did find several good choices to choose from.“

“Made a reservation through Resy app and had no issues getting a table for 4. Upon arrival, there was plenty of free parking in their parking lot. We were greeted and promptly taken care of by our hostesses after walking in. After our group had all arrived, we decided to order a bunch of small plates and a couple pizzas, so as not to completly engorge ourselves. We ordered the Bao Buns, Chicharron Arancini, Buffalo Cauliflower, Salmon Crudo, Truffle Friesm Goat Cheese & Bacon Pizza, and Broken Burrata Pizza. Each bite was super flavorful and delicious. Our favorites were the Buffalo Cauliflower and Arancini. Both pizzas were also super tasty. The crunch of the thin crust made it so enjoyable. We ended our night with a sliver of Tiramisu. Just enough to finish off the meal without feeling overly stuffed. 10/10 would highly recommend.“

But what we didn’t expect while dining here was the outstanding service from our waiter Ted who made the whole dining experience perfect. Along with Josh who was super welcoming and friendly. Definitely will be coming back often??“

“WOW. My husband and I went here for the first time tonight with my in-laws and we were absolutely blown away. The service was top notch, everyone was so attentive. The place was cozy and very clean. The food was INCREDIBLE. Appetizer, meal, dessert one thing was better than the next. The crab cake was perfection, the owner Victor (what a gem of a man!) suggested the meatball appetizer, the cheesecake and bread pudding…GET THESE! The bread pudding was one of the most delicious things I have ever eaten. We also got the lobster bisque, clams, seafood linguine, wild mushroom fettuccine, salmon and mango raspberry sorbet… all absolutely delicious and very healthy portions. 12/10 recommend, wish I could give more than 5 stars!“

“Went on a Sunday afternoon to watch some NFL Playoff football. Bartenders were fast/friendly, drinks were cold/served perfect, and food was good. There are TV's everywhere, so there really isn't a bad seat. Great atmosphere, friendly crowd, with a sports bar look and feel. Plenty of parking and bathrooms are spotless. When in town again, we will definitely stop in.“

“Originally a blacksmith shop and inn before turning into a tavern with the repeal of Prohibition in 1933. I may have been thrown out of here, several times. This bar is proudly #14 on NJ.com's Best Dive Bars list. I really like this place, wish it was closer to home. We used to find it by the giant satellite dish they had outside. I once tried to kiss a girl who worked here. She was so horrified she ran into the street. "Nooo..." Good times. Recently renovated before Covid. Bar top is lacquered plywood with a knotty pine fascia and walls. No foot rail but the floor is burnished (scorched) plywood. Stools are metal frame backed with cushion seats. Open 11AM to 2AM. Package goods available. Allegedly, there's a prison style two seater bathroom, sans privacy screen. More local history at keenbug.blogspot.comEvidence of billiards and electronic darts. Unused fireplace and hearth. They should should throw the Mp3 juke in the fire. Outside pen for smokers & dining al fresco. I'm told they have better food. I've seen the new menu and it looks like standard bar fare with a few salads thrown in to confuse you. Still, I miss it so...keenbug.blogspot.com/202…“

“I visited Kona Grill on a bustling Saturday, eager to try them out based on recommendation from a friend.The night kicked off with a mixed bag of cocktails; the New Old Fashioned, revamped with Jim Beam Vanilla Whiskey, was a delightful twist on a classic, boasting a unique texture that impressed me. Similarly, "The Rum Drink" was an excellent summer refreshment—light yet satisfying. Unfortunately, not all drinks hit the mark. The Electric Lemonade was overly sour, reminiscent of Warheads candy, and the Cucumber Southside was dominated by an overpowering cucumber flavor that eclipsed its mojito roots.Appetizers were a similarly varied affair. The Chicken Satay was adequate though unremarkable compared to Thai versions elsewhere, and it suffered from a stingy portion of otherwise tasty peanut sauce. The Fire Dragon Roll, meant to dazzle with its flamed alcohol-infused sauce, ended up a disaster as the sushi absorbed too much of the vodka(?), significantly detracting from its enjoyment and effectively ruining the dish.Main courses painted a more positive picture. Although the 10oz Prime Rib, which I requested medium, arrived well-done, it was still enjoyable enough not to warrant a return to the kitchen. The star of the evening was undoubtedly the Macadamia Nut Chicken—a unique and flavorful dish with a wonderfully crunchy macadamia crust and a delectable sauce that both my companion and I found exceptional.Dessert was a high note on which to conclude our meal. We shared a slice of carrot cake, a perfect balance of flavors with just the right amount of sweetness, and mercifully free of raisins—a common pet peeve. It might just be the best carrot cake we’ve had in a restaurant.Service was exemplary and even a manger stopped by to see how everything was going and comped the carrot cake for us for the birthday. The interior was fine but the window seat we sat by had a lot of bird poop on the windows when lookout. Just made a note on that.Kona Grill offers some standout dishes, particularly in the main courses and desserts, the inconsistency in the starters and some drinks could be improved. The venue has potential for a great dining experience if it irons out these kinks.“

“THE RESTAURANTThis place is a beautiful hidden gem right next to the canal river. It’s tucked away into a small south bound Brook town and just down the road you can park and walk the canal. Ovations boasts a parking lot with ample space. If it’s full, you can park along the street! I wouldn’t wear sweatpants here. Dress respectfully and you’ll be much better received. Don’t over do it, just don’t dress like you’re headed to Walmart at 9pm for that toilet paper you said you’d get after work ??THE FOOD: braised beef and risotto has always been solid. The flat breads are good as well if you’re interested in a lighter meal with a drink.THE DRINK: I’ll be honest, not a big drinker but the drinks I’ve had, give me a buzz. The serves are friendly so if you vibe well I’m sure you’d get some good drinks. That being said, alcohol is an extremely dangerous substance, it can lead you to choices that will change your life negatively forever.THE CANALBound Brook isn’t the safest area in the world, but the canal is on the SOUTH bound Brook side. So long as you’re smart and aware of your surroundings, you can confidently enjoy a walk!Parking: Ample private parking, and street parking is very convenient“

“This is not my first time getting food from here. The food is very good. It will always surprise me how the workers behind the counter seem to be bothered by my presence in their establishment. Each time I have approached the counter with a smile and "Hello." I get asked "Whatcha want?" I think I got a nod this last visit. This will never be an acceptable start to successful customer service. Fabulous food. Nice spot. Too bad the servers don't seem happy to be there.“

“Just had a baby shower here on 11/5 and could not have been more pleased with the turn out. Jennifer, the even coordinator was super helpful and listened to all my requests. She was more than flexible and made sure everything went smoothly. Everyone had great things to say about the food and you were able to tell it was freshly made. We had beautiful weather so they really allowed us to have access to outdoors and it felt private and intimate. I strongly recommend this place for an event!“
