“had Indian food and it was an amazing experience! Dheeraj was incredibly friendly and made great recommendations based on my preferences. The flavors were rich and authentic, and the service was top-notch. I truly appreciated Dheeraj warm hospitality, which made me feel very welcome as a guest. I’ll definitely be coming back!”

“Seasons52 Princeton food is delicious and varied as its name implies. Service is excellent as is its atmosphere.Managers, hostest,servers and staff are hands on, knowledgable,friendly and accommodating.Highly recommended.”

“Dinner last was an ABSOLUTE DELIGHT 💕. My cousins and I had cocktails to start the evening. Their French Negroni was superb. M’s starters selections were fantastic! - Quail Lollipops and Foie Gras Mousse. For my entree, I had Steak Frites-Bavette. Dinner was nothing short of magical. The service was TOP-NOTCH. Thank you, Kristine’s!”

“Amazing food. Grilled octopus was perfect!”

“Chopt in Princeton is great!!! The Uber driver didn’t deliver my order so I called the restaurant and the manger (Natalia) reimbursed my order and had my order remade and delivered it herself. She also gave me a coupon. She went above and beyond. She is awesome!!”

“Good food and service at the Wilmington, DE location”

“Had the 4course thanksgiving dinner here today. Great menu choices at a fair price. The food was delicious, the portions were generous. The service was outstanding , the staff was friendly. We will definitely be back.”

“As a first timer at Nomad, I read reviews and saw several that complained about the service; so I was prepared for same. But have to say, the service was good. Our server was prompt to the table, gave us time to decide, and brought water. And so it went, no complaints. Pizza is no longer a cheap meal, so no problem with the prices, which are reasonable. The pies, well, they are a tasty, flavorful meal, with crust done perfectly. One of our party ordered an arugula salad, which he devoured. The Nutella desert pizza was not that impressive, but it did seem to disappear. Cheers!”

“Mi Espana is outstanding! Totally blew us away! Absolutely fantastic authentic home cooked Spanish food!! The caldo gallego (soup with greens, pork, white beans & potatoes), sopa pescado (seafood soup), chicken paella, pulpo (octopus with vegetables), and torta dessert were all fantastic! The chef clearly loves what they do and you can taste it! Great service too! Better than the Spanish restaurants in NYC, N. NJ & Philly and very reasonably priced! Can't wait to go back!!”

“Highly recommend eating here. The sushi was very fresh and tasted amazing. The bubble tea selections were awesome. The creme brulee dessert was the perfect way to end the night.”

“our server Gianna was the best server I’ve ever had. she should get a raise because she’s super nice and funny. she made the experience really good and we want to come again”

“Amazing experience at the Witherspoon Grill tonight! Our waiter was awesome and their patio is dog friendly! Food was soooo good! We will return!!”

“Delicious food and great service”

“We were there last night. Forget the poor reviews. When you walk in it feels like a pizzeria, but when the food is presented, it's like a 5 star restaurant! The presentation is gorgeous, the preparation is perfection. We were 5 in our party and everyone left happy. The portions were very generous and some of us brought leftovers home. It's not cheap, but you get what you pay for, and it wasn't exorbitant either. Special shout out to Elizabeth, our delightful server (and daughter of the owner/chef) who treated us like royalty. Other friends who came in after us agreed!”

“We all love Elite Five for different reasons. I love it because they do a great job with my allergies and my children love it because they have so many delicious options and get what they want. We are picking up or dining in often!”

“We went to dine with this rag tag restaurant and the experience was awful. The waitress had no teeth and asked my son for his? At first we thought “hey maybe they are joking” then all of a sudden. They lady grabbed his front bicuspid. Needless to say - at that point we were concerned. Because we had a long day we were still hungry. So we stuck around. The next thing you know. The toothless individual brought another toothless friend and tried to get my tooth as well. At that point. We know. Time to get out of here. We were cooked. Unlike the food at this gross place.”

“Great atmosphere. We’ll definitely comeback.”

“Such a nice evening!! The food was delicious and our server (so sorry I don’t know your name!! The Hungarian girl from Felsoörs 🇭🇺🇺🇸) was exceptional, so knowledgeable of the menu, sociable, prompt and helpful! We had the fried eggplants & chicken popcorn as appetizers, then various types of noodle dishes, sesame chicken and seafood tofu. Super yummy, and cozy atmosphere. Will go back when in Princeton!”

“Great friendly staff who make fantastic tasty mixed drinks and serve delicious food.”

“Food and service was fantastic”

“I would highly recommend Winberie's! my husband and I went for the first time today to have some lunch. The Executive Chef, Steve Fitch, was so awesome! My husband has a laundry list of food allergies and Steve came out to offer alterations he could make to the menu items to accommodate us. Everyone there was so friendly and the cocktail and food we had was all fresh and delicious. I could have the parmesan tomato soup everyday for the rest of my life and be happy, it was the best I have ever had. Thank you for a great lunch experience, we will definitely be back!”

“During my visit, I experience good customer service: employees are helpful and kind with navigating the menu. I really enjoy Buddha's Delight. The vegetables are so flavorful apart as well as together. I'm glad about finding a menu option with a mix of vegetables. I add Vegan chicken to my order for protein. The portion is so large, I think two people may share one order. The meal travels well. I literally eat the meal for breakfast the following day (no refrigeration though in a lower than room-like temperature atmosphere, indoors) and the meal holds together well even after about twelve hours. The establishment is pretty open, spacious, and offers a variety of indoor seating options. The establishment accepts different forms of payment.”

“Great food! Excellent service.”

“Great quality, well presented food in an upscale, but unassuming environment. Perfect for lunch with friends, colleagues, or a date night!

As a vegan, the variety of dishes to choose from was a relative rarity and greatly appreciated! I had the sweet potato and bean chilli which was really tasty, well balanced, gorgeously presented, hearty - the perfect dish for autumn. The plant based dishes were so well designed that my colleagues, both of whom eat meat, opted for vegan meals too!

The farm to table concept is fabulous and the quality of ingredients is noticeable on the first bite. Each staff member we had the pleasure of interacting with was lovely, and the service was excellent throughout.

Thank you Agricola team!”

“Outstanding. a real fantastic place in Princeton, NJ city centre. Refined, nice people, fantastic food, outstanding wine list, umbeatable cocktails. simply perfect”

“Sat outside, upstairs rooftop. It was lovely. Service was attentive but not overbearing Both had tuna appetizer- nice portion, tuna was fresh. We also ordered the sea scallops and bolognese. Both excellent and nice portions. Too full for dessert. Hidden Gem - will go back”

“We were a party of 11 people and all vegetarian
They had so many options . Every dish we ordered was lip smacking delicious. We ordered zucchini beauty, pumpkin zinkonta, saksouka, muhaamra, smoked roasted eggplant , vegetarian kabab, pizza and they serve balloon bread. Cake mosaic for dessert . Delectable feast divine meal. I can’t recall what else we ordered no complains. Our server who was the manager too was all smiles and attentive . Ambience is contemporary pleasant . My third time going there and I will continue to go back .”

“We tried the Chicken Tikka Kati Roll here and it was VERY good.
Very good portion for the price, filled with delicious Chicken Tikka.
I wish I had taken a picture, but trust me - it was very good and we'll definitely come back to try a few others.”

“Best specialty coffee in Princeton and also the surrounding area. If Alex is working the bar, ask for his best pour over. All the food is also fantastic and it’s a beautiful spot to sit”

“Great”

“I love this place.Delicious food & friendly service.”

“Ginger cardamom scones! Actually, all the scones are delicious. Coffee beans are roasted in a facility in Rocky Hill. Our favorite is the dark roast. Shop local!”

“too expensive, horrible service, arrogant and ignorant staff. unless you have 15 minutes to wait for a simple coffee and muffin while these igorant people commiserate with college students, dont bother patronizing this place. $15 for muffin, coffee and tip makes Starbucks seem inexpensive.”

“Homey restaurant with fresh handmade pasta, you can choose the type of pasta and then the sauce, they have good desserts and a good cappuccino, the atmosphere is very nice and the service is very good, it is a good place to go with your family and partner”

“Ginger cardamom scones! Actually, all the scones are delicious. Coffee beans are roasted in a facility in Rocky Hill. Our favorite is the dark roast. Shop local!”

“I bought some cheese Babka and blueberry and chocolate chip scones for my coworkers and they absolutely loved them!!! Wish you werent an hour away!! Will get more soon!! Cant wait to have more fresh italian bread soon!”

“This restaurant is very tidy and spacious and has plenty of room for larger gatherings. It was both comfortable and relaxing, and it would be great for friends and families.”

“I work in the mall, and come here often for a quick bite to eat. The management and all of the employees here are so friendly, approachable and professional. I’ve never had a bad experience here, and they always have me coming back!!”

“The crepes taste good and are reasonably priced for a shop in Princeton.”

“Credit card companies make a killing by screwing over small businesses but small businesses would be better suited sorting that out and investing in a functional checkout system than investing in a useless singing robot waiter.

Decent food, very nice regular hot tea as well as bubble tea, with hit or miss desserts in a lovely environment that sometimes takes a very, very long time (even with reservations made over a week in advance).

The QR code on each table would be very simple for orders except that it's not per scan but per table. Several times I tried to add to our order but the site refreshed so I had to add everything to the order again.

In the end, I worried about the buyer getting saddled with four botched orders and resorted to stealing a QR code from an empty table. That way I was able to immediately place and pay for my order without inconveniencing my friends or whoever sat at that table next.

I'd give Prince Teahouse three stars due to repeated disappointment but I don't want to ruin their review score that badly and the employees try their best.”

“I had the steak burrito at the Piscataway location today and it did not disappoint. Excellent food and the nachos with Nutella are fire. They had so many fresh made salsa and bottled hot sauce to put on my burrito. I think I found my new Mexican spot. Can't wait to try more of the menu. Highly recommend. 10/10”

“They are the very best around! Never miss. Great for catering too. Get a slice, get a sandwich, a pie or a dinner, it's always great. I love the owners!”

“By far THEE BEST oat milk mocha on ZEE planet ❤️🔥”

“Great coffee, relaxed atmosphere, super friendly staff, and I can sit outside with my pup.”

“Great job! Thank you Sweta!”

“Nice outdoor seatings. Order at the counter and they’ll bring the food to you. Pretty coffee mugs, but the latte and flat white are not as strong as I preferred. The sandwiches are tasty, especially the steak sandwich. Reasonable prices. Can get crowded on the weekends.”

“Contes pizza is one the best in the Mercer/Bucks county area. I give it a 8.99. Service was fantastic, the people are friendly and pleasant. I highly recommend going to Contes. I know we’re going back.”

“Great service, very good quality of food”

“WOW WOW WOW !!!! A friend gave me a dozen of your mini cakes as a gift. They are absolutely amazing and just the right size for a super yummy treat.”

“I've traveled to Thailand, and I must say, this restaurant rivals some of the best I've been to there. The Pad Thai was spot on, and the Tom Yum soup was a comforting hug in a bowl.”

“❤️ always, been visiting since 2018”

“Visiting Town and decided to look for lunch! My boys knew them from a NY City location. Perfect option for us! Fast ordering, delicious drinks, quick service, etc. our food was all pretty good… loved my Tamarind juice guys😋😋😋”

“So I've never been much of a sushi person, but my last trip here with friends changed my mind on that so now I'm locked in sushi mode ! I really like the all you can eat aspect so I can sample a little bit of everything and I really enjoyed my Seafood Udon, mackerel and crab sashimi, Edison rolls and more ! Want to come here soon !”

“Such a great Rita’s. They have a wonderful selection of flavors, with more variety in both ice flavors and custard flavors than the average Rita’s. The service is also very good: friendly and timely. There wasn’t too much of a line when I went, so it was very quick.”

“This place will play

Parking: The valet is just a stand up amenity that reflects the duality of the club

Kid-friendliness: They’re nice to Abby”

“Delicious fresh food, and the owners are so nice and friendly! Our go to spot when we're in the mood for Turkish food.”

“Good service and good food for a low price. You get what you pay for!”

“I ate breakfast every day at Parallel 40 for my two week stay and Chef Tymier made my pancakes just the way I wanted - with the blueberries on the side and not mashed into the mixture! Yum yum!”

“This coffee shop is amazing! The owner is wonderful. She recently came to our apartment at The Parc at Princeton Junction for a wine and truffle tasting for Valentine’s Day and it was a fabulous event. So my boyfriend and I decided to stop by her coffee shop and try it out and was I blown away! The coffee was absolutely wonderful! The atmosphere is amazing! If you are ever in the Princeton area I highly recommend this coffee shop!”

“*Best spot to have lunch in Princeton*
They have selections for everyone, even the pickiest of eaters. I brought my family in today and I had the pastrami, wife had the gnocchi, son had pizza, daughter had penne and we all had dessert!
Say hello to Joey's Angels when you're checking out!”

“The atmosphere is a little stale but the smoothies are fantastic. They offer a variety of options. The best options are to the left of the counter. Unfortunately, I didn’t see that sign until after I ordered. I wish the worker was more personable. Thank people for coming, offer suggestions, ask if it’s my first time. It’s the little things that make a difference. After all, I’m spending $11 on a smoothie!!!! SMH LOL
It was very tasty and I will be back”

“In my opinion, the best Pain au Chocolat in Princeton or anywhere in the Americas.”

“Charming little cafe with excellent food and service 😊”

“I have been going to Chucks for wings since 1985.
Went today after a long time and they were just as good as I remembered.
I went for the 14 piece wings. Recommend

Parking: Right next door is a parking garage.
Free for 30 minutes, I was in and out, so parking was free and a short walk.”

“This place has quickly become my go-to for bubble tea. The drinks are always fresh, perfectly sweetened, and the tapioca pearls are just the right texture — soft and chewy but never mushy. I’ve tried several flavors, but the brown sugar milk tea and mango green tea are my favorites so far.
The staff is super friendly and welcoming, and the service is always fast, even when they’re busy. The shop itself is clean, cozy, and has a great vibe — perfect for grabbing a quick drink or hanging out with friends.
Highly recommend if you’re in the area and craving something sweet and refreshing!”

“Great cupcakes there. There’s a reason why they won or Food Network cupcake competition. I always make a stop here whenever I visit Princeton.”

“It's pretty much the most affordable bar in Princeton. The parking situation is confusing, I don't know if I'm getting towed in the back lot. Beers are always good and I've never had an issue being served even when it's packed inside and out.”

“Good spot of Chinese food and boba, but doesn’t take dining points. I don’t think it’s worth going here over a different spot if you have dining points, but for other situations I think it’s good”

“Excellent chef and delivery service”

“It's a coffee shop inside Whole Foods. Never seems too busy not that they moved it to a corner in the bakery section. Lots of options. You either have to leave with your drink or carry it around with your while you shop.

Vegetarian options: It's all veg and your can get dairy free stuff too”

“We recently dined at Taste of Mexico and tried the chicken fajitas. The chicken was well seasoned and flavorful, and the rice and beans were a great addition to the overall meal. However, I found the portion of chicken to be small, which was a bit underwhelming. Additionally, the vegetables, which are meant to be a side, ended up taking over the plate. While the overall taste was good, a better balance between the chicken and vegetables would have made this a more enjoyable meal. In addition to the chicken fajitas, we ordered the carne enchiladas, which were served along a bed of rice, beans, and a simple green salad. The grilled pork in the enchiladas was marinated well and juicy. The carne complimented the sautéed tomatoes, onions, and jalepeños tenderly filled inside the enchiladas. The carne enchiladas was a well-sized dish and was quite delectable. Now onto the star of the meal... The Tres Leches Cake. The sponge-like cake, soaked in the sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and cream, was a symphony of richness and delight to our taste buds. Despite the prevalence of milk, the dish never felt heavy and continued to be light and luscious till the very last bite.

Vegetarian options: Lots of great vegetarian options. Black/pinto beans, rice, guacamole, vegetable platters, vegetable enchiladas.

Parking: Lots of parking behind(free), paid street parking on the main downtown street and, paid parking garage situated behind the Princeton public Library

Kid-friendliness: Great quaint spot, friendly for kids of all ages

Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant is primarily flat ground with no steps. There is a slight slope which the restaurant is located on, however this is very slight, but just a FYI!”

“Popped in and hit up Arlee’s Raw blends today, the Princeton location with my Yeti cooler. Picked up dinner too for the hubs - collard green wrap and kale salad. 💜😋”

“Loved the thin crust GF pizza. We had it customized (half mex half spicy sausage). The mex part was layered with black beans and corn and topped with pico style tomatoes and onions. Spicy sausage had red and green sweet peppers layered on top of marinara and cheese. Was enough for two if you're not super hungry. The best part was that GF didn't feel like chewy/doughy unlike other pizzerias that sell GF pizza. It seems they make it from scratch using buck wheat.

Dietary restrictions: Carries GF crust.”

“I read about LaLa Lobster on Facebook. We decided to take ride today and check it out. It was very tasty, very tender and a great tasting roll. I had the Classic with warm butter..mmmmmmm so good. It just melted in your mouth. If you don't go there you are missing out. It is 100x's better than the food truck I can't find half the time. Good luck I will definitely be back!”

“6 people had an exceptional dining experience tonight. All food and service beyond really good. Not cheap, but if you want a great dining experience, this place is one of the top 3 and earns that rating for every time and occasion you may have.”
