“My server was DonnetteAbsolutely loved the server. She was efficient and kind. I ordered the Nashville chicken and waffles. The flavor was good, but I do wish they'd have allowed the chicken more time to drain before adding the sauce. Everything else was great. Good music. Good food. Good atmosphere, and timely service.“
“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.“
“Food is fantastic and customer service is amazing. If you’re in the area you need to definitely drop by and grab a byte. They have a variety of things and they can custom anything you desire. Also LEO discount are offered which is a plus!“
“The owner is welcoming the wings fried hard pack with favor. He let us sample the house sangria which was delicious. This spot doesn’t miss a beat with the menu options. Rocket fuel is definitely a hidden gem and highly recommended for anyone that what to try new original favors. Last but not least stand of experience is was when I told the owner I was feeling the teriyaki sauce the cook in real time fix the recipe to my personal liking, now I’m forever a customer.“
“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!!“
“Tried to post a review but this place didn't exist on Yelp so decided to add it just to post a review becauseeeeee, I had one of the best airport salads here. We all know airport food isn't great so being that I got a great meal, I had to give them props. I got the brussel sprouts salad and added chicken. The grilled chicken was well seasoned/charred. Salad was low on brussel sprouts but the mixed greens made up for it. Almonds, pomegranate seeds, and craisins were a nice mix. Overall I'm just happy I got a fresh and good tasting salad in good portion size. Still overpriced but what can you do? It's at the airport.“
“I recently experienced exceptional service and bartending at a local establishment. The staff, led by skilled bartenders, demonstrated a high level of professionalism and friendliness , to providing attentive service, and the overall experience was top-notch. The ambiance, coupled with the expertise of the bartenders, made for an enjoyable and memorable evening. Highly recommend for those seeking both quality drinks and outstanding service. Mimi is also very lovely , very sweet , one of my favorite Bartenders, her service was outstanding! Definitely coming back“
“I only have ordered on uber eats so I don’t know service and atmosphere, but the oxtail is on point. The beef patties….. wow….. I need to know what spices they useGreat food. I have ordered MANY times in the past few weeks. And will continue“
“What can be said about this place that hasn’t already been said a million times already? Legendary 12 ounce burgers. Great service. 1,000% authentic Jersey experience. All that. To me though the best part is the grill. Look at it. It’s almost as if it was an afterthought, like, sure, let’s put a grill right here, behind the bar, why not? Then they just start making these incredible burgers, cooked to absolute perfection, right there in front of you. FOR DECADES. Yup. (Is that you, Joyce?) I was there at 3 in the afternoon on a weekday and barely got a parking spot; by the time I left, the lot was full. So plan to find parking elsewhere or take public transit. But whatever you do, if you’re in town, do NOT miss this place. It’s everything the reviews say, and more.“
“We found this place while working in the area and decided to give it a shot. Located on Lock St in Newark. The outside looks inviting with music playing and seating outside. Inside is newly built with plenty of seats and a bar area. The menu is all online as is the ordering. I ordered the Vermont rooster sandwich which comes with fries .. it's a deep fried boneless chicken thigh on a brioche bun with lettuce tomato and pickles with bacon cooked perfectly. My buddy had the cheese steak which he said was really good and he's a bit picky. Tons of cheese and a horseradish aoli spread. They have salads and pizza as well. Don the owner cooks everything from scratch and it really shows once you dig in! Nicely plated and priced right. They also serve dinner after 4 pm. If you're looking for good food cooked with love and you're in the area stop in and I think you'll be glad you did.Wheelchair accessibility: Ground level on the parking lot side.“
“Had a great time for my anniversary this weekend my server angel made it even better her vibe was amazing she had us dancing drinking and laughing all night. tried a few suggestions from her since this was our first time. Everything amazing, drinks were good, and we even got a great bottle deal for 5 people with food, drinks a bottle and hookahs we did like 150 a person and we were there from 9pm till almost closing time. thats really a steal we will definitely be back soon.Parking: They have a huge lot and valet as well you might have to walk a little if you dont want to pay but the valet is fast and quick and pretty cheap“
“At last minute on labor day weekend we was searching lunch and dinner catering for our Wearhouse staff where we found this place on google. with in two hour they have provide lunch sandwiches, beverage & chips for our 175 afternoon staff and they also provide dinner for our 150 evening staff. all there sandwiches was made with fresh sliced meat and cheese and fresh veggies.....we definitely order again from this place....we thank them for taking care of us at last minute....thank you so much...“
“Wow! I usually only order fried wings from the Chinese food place but I decided to order this on Uber eats and I’m so happy I went with my instincts! The chicken wings were not only flavorful, but they were so crispy!! 10/10! I’ll be ordering again!“
“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 !“
“If you looking for good soul food, here is your spot. This is the best soul food place in Newark and been around for years. They’re the only ones selling slab bacon… I’ve had everything on the menu but my favorites are the smothered chicken and smothered pork chops, fried pork chops, collards, string beans, all the beans, Mac and cheese,, well just about everything on the menu lol. Chris be putting his foot in it!!Thank you for serving the community for all these years.“
“Felt like an upstate ny bar very cool people very nice bartender Very attentive and the food was all freshly made. Def will be back if we are ever in the area. Parking is free on street but good luck we just parked in the lot right next door for 20 bucks.Parking: Just park in lot it's paid and secure“
“This place is a gem! We came here because our initial plan of eating at tribos periperi fell through when they were suddenly closed on Saturday (maps said it was open). I had heard of Indian inspired burgers and fried chicken before in Manhattan, so we decided to try this place out.\\n\\nThe place has 1 table by the window, then a bar with some chairs along the counter, and finally an area with several more tables.\\n\\nYou order at the counter, they'll ask your name, so I thought it was self pick-up, but in our case they brought the food to us.\\n\\nWe weren't sure what sauce to use on the chicken wings so we asked about the masala and the walla, as those two sounded the most special/distinct. They let us taste the sauces and we went with the walla, it's super good!\\n\\nThey didn't take long to prepare our lamb burger, beef burger (medium cooked ?) and our chicken wings, along with a side order of fries and a side order of sweet potato tots.\\n\\nThe burgers were delicious, juicy but not too messy, with a very nicely cooked thin patty full of flavor. The fries and tots were both incredible too, couldn't stop eating them! The tots are more interesting, but I do prefer the fries because well made fries are always the best side.\\n\\nThe chicken wings were small but packed with flavor (we also did get 7 instead of 6, probably because of the size? Or maybe they were just that nice). I only tried one because my husband is the one that loves wings the most, but I really enjoyed this one too!\\n\\nService was great! I expected it to be more self service, but they were very involved and made sure to explain what needed to be explained, and to ask about our meal.\\n\\nI'm not doing great at explaining, so I'll let the photos speak for themselves!“
“Cool spot. My family and I tried this place out last week. We loved the decor and the cleanliness of the place. I ordered the shrimp and garlic as a meal. They added a side of rice. It was very tasty. It wasn’t salty and super seasoned like most places. The portion was a nice size for 18$. My husband ordered picanha - the meat was fresh and cooked well. It was missing a little salt for our taste but that’s an easy fix. The deserts were amazing (variety) and the coffee was too. It’s family friendly. They have parking out front for a few cars. Street parking maybe a problem on weekends but it’s worth the try.“
“The show was absolutely phenomenal. The Sunday Brunch comedy special is an amazing experience where you have an intimate setting, good food and a great atmosphere. If you are looking for a great time, it's a must that you go and thoroughly enjoy yourself.“
“I saw some of the negative reviews in advance and was hesitant to show up-- but our friends who were with us and had been here before assured us it would be OK --and it was great-- the menu selection is not large-- 3 of us had grits w/ shrimp and the 4th had the hamburger no complaints -- french fries were great and a side of 4 cheese macaroni also great as was the corn bread appetizer (good for dessert also) -- a lot of alcohol choices- good attentive and swift service by an attractive wait staff-- perfect for pre show meal before nearby NJ Symphony--“
“We attended a concert recently at New Jersey performing arts center and this was our first time there. This was the best preshow dining experience that we’ve ever had. And we go to many many shows and have for years. Cassandra was our server and she and her team were very patient when needed, but also extremely attentive. The manager also came by to make sure that everything was all right as well. We were very surprised that there was no drop off on level of service, food quality, etc. as the pre-show crowds came in and filled the place. A very well run restaurant that we will certainly use anytime we are there.“
“Very clean restaurant. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by pleasant staff and seated immediately. My server Mira was a delight. She served our meal in a timely manner and checked to see if anything was needed. I enjoyed my meal and service here. Thanks.Kid-friendliness: Very pleasant and patient staff with my child.“
“Gabe & Tony are awesome! So welcoming when you walk through the door , super friendly and caring of their customers. I’ve been going to this cafe for almost 7 years now and I will continue to in the future. From the customer service down to the delicious food and drinks , they deserve a 10 STAR RATING . Keep up the good work guys and never change who you guys are ❤️“
“Very nice atmosphere. We had steak tacos. Not the taste and flavoring I’m used to so I probably won’t get them again. The meat was more on the chewy side and not super soft But they were ok. This is definitely a place to enjoy good music and great drinks. Our circle of family and friends really did enjoy the food and drinks. The server was super attentive and made sure we were good the entire time. Enjoyed our short time here and would definitely return.“
“I wanted to try the local bar for a while now. I absolutely loved it there. I went on a Thursday since weekends they get crazy mobbed. My sister and I had 4 drinks in total. 3 cocktails and one draft beer. We split an order of wings and she had the clams in garlic sauce and I opted for a picadinho which is one of the best ones I've had, by far. We paid about $120 with tip and thats the only reason for the 4 star. Its a bit expensive for a local bar. Unless of course their looking to be more than just a local bar.“
“This was my first time ordering here and I’m very pleased. The food is so good and the staff is friendly as well. Definitely will be back and referring others.Vegetarian options: They have a variety of dishes to choose from that aligns with the needs of the vegan or vegetarian.“
“Wonderful little gem. Near my hotel (the Courtyard). Had the half chicken with collards and black beans to stick to my keto diet. The chicken was small, but the sides were enormous. Food was excellent. Even though the selections I ordered were simple, the preparation was evident. Easily the best bowl of beans I've ever had. The garlic and oil on the collards were perfect too. I was hungry and forgot to take a picture of the meal, but trust me: it was good. You won't be disappointed.“
“Elma was our bartender, even though she was extremely busy, she was very polite, helpful, everything came out fast and was good.Elma also assisted us when we needed a charger, she gave me her own phone charger so I can get some battery through my next flight. Thanks “
“Made an unexpected stop at the hotel, on the way out we got coffee and some pastries for the road and the service we got from Laura at the coffe stand was excellent! We were amazed how the service at a coffee stand was better than some of the restaurants we go. Lauras service shows she cares a lot for the “
“I will start out by saying I love City Lounge and I’ve been coming here for years. I actually have a Great Review for them under my other account, but this time was different. It’s the last Friday of the year and I’m chillin with my home girl, and this Oswald Cobblepot (iykyk ) blond bald head chick with the gap was rude as hell. Yes I took it there cause she was rude twice. She was the hookah girl by the way. Her attitude was trash. Now I understand I’m in Newark, but damn ???? For me to write this review means she ticked me off. Let’s do better City LoungeP.S. Henery the bartender doesn’t know how to make drinks well The sangria was great however his energy was GREAT too. We tipped him well ♥️“
“The best place for lunch near the Rutgers-Newark campus on weekdays! The restaurant has a great cause and serves delicious three-course meals for only $12. The three courses are appetizer (choice between salad and soup), main (two different protein options and one vegetarian option), and dessert (choice between a bakery item and fruit). I have been to the restaurant several times since opening a few years ago, and the food has been excellent every time that I have been there. The only minor drawback is that the location is only open for weekday lunch between 11:30 am and 2 pm.“
“I love this place the service was amazing both the people in the food and the people in the register were all so nice and let’s talk about the pricing it’s amazing for a pizzeria store and not only do they have pizza and hot food they have sandwiches hot subs breakfast platter cookies all kinds of stuff. But what I love the most was the fact that the slides and the pizzas are very affordable. I once asked the cook if he could make me something that was not in the menu and they accepted and did it gracefully.“
“Gourmet Lunch is amazing! Please go in to the door on the left "Gourmet". Maria makes the best food, and it is fresh every day. The menu changes depending on what she has, so you can call ahead if you would like to know. She usually has meat, chicken, 3 types of rice, plantains, vegetables, beans, and sometimes shrimp. I'm sure the side selections may change during the seasons. The meat is so tender, and the chicken so flavorful. Maria and group are so sweet and genuine too. I am happy to support this business, and so is my heart and stomach.“
“Ate here with a group co-workers (total of 8 people) after work on a Tuesday evening. It had a casual atmosphere. The food was excellent starting from the appetizers all the way down to the dessert! The calamari and the shrimp during the appetizer was on point. The sauce on the shrimp was great dipping for the bread. For the Entree the seafood pasta was fresh and a generous serving portion for 5-6 people alone in 1 serving. We also had the picadinho, which was my favorite- excellent... not too greasy! And had a good portion of salad with steak. Then we each had a serving of different desserts that we shared- flan, chocolate mousse, tiramisu, cheesecake, and some pudding. All were delicious but my favorite were the flan and chocolate mousse. As for the drinks, we had a 2 pitchers of the red sangria and my friends had their beer from tap from their little waterfall grotto... it was so cool! We were all seated in the patio at the back of the restaurant which had a great breeze from outside on a nice summer temperature... our day happened to be rainy which was relaxing to see and hear from where we were seated. All in all the service was prompt and excellent from our waitress Rose. The owner happen to be in there during our visit and was very friendly and accomodating. And if you're in doubt just for the parking alone, there's a private parking lot in the back of the restaurant. Would reccomend this place and would come back again with family and friends!“
“Food was very good! Ordered brunch... French toast and a bacon and sausage omelette. My wife ordered fried chicken, but they were out of that, so she got the chicken tenders and fries, which was very good. Also, our meals were done in a very timely manner, and were hot as you would expect.So, Central Restaurant gets 4 thumbs ups from my wife Tina and myself! ????“
“A great place for a quick early morning breakfast.Due to my Marriott Platinum status, I got a $10 off coupon so this was actually a really good deal for breakfast.When I came down early in the morning, they were not busy at all and they took my order right away. The menu is not huge but they do have some good options.The portions are really good size and the food is very flavorful.“
“Surprisingly Very Good!! Out of towners and was looking for food after a event , in the area. Buffalo Wings were great! Spicy Fingers were tasty. We also purchased Macaroni Salad and Strawberry Banana Pudding. Everything was good and yes We are very Picky Eaters!“
“Been eating with this establishment since it was called Walla Burger. The best burgers I’ve ever had and would not eat a burger elsewhere.Kid-friendliness: Kids of all ages are welcomeWheelchair accessibility: Located within Military Park and wheelchair accessible.“
