New American Restaurants near Riverside, NJ

“My wife and I stopped in for breakfast and had a really good time. The food was great, the hostess/waitress was fun and personable, and it's great to see her interaction with the regulars. The restaurant decor is a little dated, but it fits the feel and the food and I wouldn't change hardly a thing. This is the diner we've been missing since moving to New Jersey.“

“Always outstanding. Every aspect of Jules is top notch. I tried the special swordfish Milanese. So delicious. The Mrs. Had the scallops. Her go to every time. The servers are wonderful. They really understand the menu and are phenomenal at articulating it. 10 out of 10 every single time.“

“We went there for the first time tonight which happened to be during restaurant week. We ordered from the prix fixe menu with the 3 course meals. It was the most delicious food I have ever had in my life. The service was impeccable. It was definitely a 10/10!!!“

“Top Notch cocktails, Wayne will not steer you wrong! Both times I've gone he came up with a different variant of the old fashioned, both times they become my new favorite version of the old fashioned. On my last trip there, he didn't hold back, he came up with a stellar old fashioned and served me the best margarita I'd ever had! If Wayne ever asks if you trust him, do it, he will not disappoint! He got a feel for what flavors I like and served me the most phenomenal marg in a big skull glass, the pineapple was so ripe and juicy and the drink itself had the perfect spicy/sweet ratio!! All the bartenders were friendly and served everyone well, we all had a great time! I also love that you can get to-go cups and boxes to enjoy cocktails and food in your room!“

“I walked around the mall one day and noticed this new restaurant that was open. I walked in and got a takeout menu, looked at it and said I'm going to come back one day. It took a year but I finally went back My wife and I were on our way to another place to eat lunch and when we drove past the mall we decided to finally try Harvest. The restaurant is nice. Now this is a farm to table restaurant. They even list the farmers on the menu and the menu is seasonal. I'm not a vegetarian, don't care about gluten free and I don't watch calories but if you care about any of those things, this place is for you. So I had a hard time finding something to eat on the menu but I got a chicken club and my wife got the crab cake sandwich. And let me tell you, in 26 years of marriage I've NEVER heard my wife like the food so much! She said she could eat the crab cake sandwich everyday! Very flavorful she said. She said the food was good 4 times while we were sitting there. I couldn't stop laughing. Compliments to the chef! Based off that alone I'm giving 5 stars. My rating would have been 4 stars but again this is not my type of food. The chicken pita sandwich was okay, the chicken was dry. The pita bread made a difference. I'm going back to get that crab cake sandwich.“

“We are used to excellent bartenders at Seasons 52. We moved out of the area & haven't been back for about a year, but was shocked at the lack of service. We ordered 2 simple drinks, sparkling rose & prosecco, but it took over 25 minutes. Then we ordered appetizers while we were waiting for a table, that took so long we had to reorder at the table along with reordering our drinks. When we finally got to our reserved table, I was told, our original table had been given to someone else. I only found that out because they went up to check & the hostess recognized me & frankly said... oh, that's what happened & proceeded to tell me she gave our table away 25 minutes earlier. The waiter was nice, but very slow & the service overall on a Friday night, that was not busy was very slow. I'm disappointed.“

“very very friendly staff very big family atmosphere with a sports bar. the food is delicious I had the seafood risotto. the potato skins aren't really what you think they are they are a potato cut in half but they are very delicious you get one potato cut in half. I had the cheese curds appetizer but know that they are breaded and fried which I wish they weren't but they were still yummy in the marinara sauce. there's a lot to choose from and everyone in the place seems so happy. we'll definitely be going back and Maureen is a wonderful server.“

“My fiancé and I recently moved to the area and have enjoyed trying the local food. We were excited to try this spot after hearing so much about it and we really enjoyed our experience. The food was amazing and we loved our server. We can’t wait to come back and try more from the menu!“

“The portions were much bigger than expected, and it didn’t lack any quality! The food is very delicious and the atmosphere is laid back and comfortable. The service is just right—they make sure we have what we need and don’t bug us. I definitely recommend!!“

“Went to Versi Vino for a date night with my husband and had the most delicious wine and cocktails! There are so many amazing wine options! We enjoyed speaking to the owner and she helped us choose a great meal to go with our wine selections. Can’t wait to go back!“

“This place is wonderful! I travel to this region often for work and this place has become a staple when I'm in Cherry Hill. The menu has seasonal items so I've been able to try different things on my visits. I've tried the brussel sprouts (delicious) , the Daily Fish at one point was a shrimp and scallops with collards and grits (one of the best meals I've had this year!!) if they have this as an option definitely get it. Pictured is the Cauliflower starter, Spring Scallop Farrotto, carrot cake (so good!), and the Flor de Jamaica drink (it was good but not my favorite) Make a reservation if you plan on arriving after 5pm, but don't let the wait deter you from going.“

“This is the spot where my coworkers go after work to unwind. Great selection of cocktails ? , and the only “bar food” that I’ve ever actually enjoyed. In fact I even went back with a friend just to grab lunch , we had the kale salad with chicken and it was delicious“

“The food is great and the service is awesome. The owner and his wife are very nice people. Also I live her flower garden. Thank You once again for the wonderful services and the awesome ? food.Wheelchair accessibility: Very much wheelchair ♿️ assistance“

“Food was good. Atmosphere was nice for a visiting out-of-state police officer. Company stor offers a lot of Philly PD swag. Very "safe" environment. Will visit again the next time in town. Recommended for LEOs to add it to your list if in the area.“

“I loved our dinner here. The restaurant was cozy & the waiters are very professional. Our table was set with new plates & silverware for each course & swept in between. It was suggested we could do family style for both of us bc we wanted to taste each other's choices & it worked great. I ordered the artichoke & even my husband said it was the best thing ever, I regret sharing it bc I wanted more ? The fish was my least favorite, I wish I had ordered the chicken, but I reheated for lunch the next day. The table next to us had the chicken & it looked so good, our waiter had said it was his favorite. The portion sizes were generous & plated beautifully. We had been meaning to come here for a while & glad we did. We'll be back again!“

“Good bar food here with a lot of variety. The Turkey burger was very tasty. The chocolate crème de pot was good but a bit on the rich side and needed something crunchy for texture in my opinion. Service was good. We left right as quizzo was a bout to start but may have to come back for quizzo!“

“A cool local pub that serves amongst other things, pork roll sanwiches. I had never had a pork roll and so on a whim was suggested to try The Pines Tavern and it was pretty good. The service was exceptional, super friendly staff behind the bar, which I always appreciate.“

“Never heard of this place. Only found it cause it used to be a TGI Fridays and I was in the area. We freakin love this place! Been back a lot since finding it. Food is awesome, drinks are cold, and service is great! I highly recommend trying it!“

“Steam is one of the places that just never gets old! It’s a constant fave amongst friends and family. Whether it’s meeting the girls for drinks, or a recent gathering for a family birthday- the service is always great and the food is tasty! Our waiter became our bestie and that’s the vibe I want on a night out. Not pretentious, just a fun time!“

“It was our first time there. The server was friendly and came frequently to check up on us, even though he was tied up to another bigger group who had a birthday celebration. Paying was smooth, because everything was in a handheld device. The food portions were huge. I ended up taking my half of the meal home. It was delicious! Definitely would come back if we ended up shopping at the mall.“

“Great Greek salad, the best dressing around. Served with warm pita bread. Crisp lettuce, tomatoes, onions, olives, Feta cheese and stuffed grape leaves. I ordered on on my birthday Togo and they forgot the dressing. When I went back, I also received 2 slices of cake and a gift card. What service. I would have given 5 stars if only the ripped seats inside were not ripped. I have to be honest on the reviews. Still my go to spot for the salad. I can honestly say it's the best in the area.Parking: Small parking lotWheelchair accessibility: Has elevator“

“Busy little restaurant but was sat within 5 minutes and our server Isaiah was wonderful! Very nice smile and personality! Very attentive to what we needed. I was in ahhhh over the timeless pieces covering the walls. Loved it. Will return soon.“

“My fiancé planned a surprise engagement party for me at the Ashburner Inn this past Saturday with the help of our family and friends. He worked with Debbie, she was extremely accommodating and helpful. She was very easy to get a hold of and was quick to return any calls or texts. She answered all of his questions and provided great detail of all of their party packages and gave very clear directions of when people could come set up and what type of decor was acceptable. She was very mindful of dietary restrictions within our party and made sure all our guests had something to eat. All the food was hot, fresh and delicious. We still have people telling us about how good the food was. The bartender and staff were very attentive and professional. We couldn’t have had a better night and highly recommend anyone who wants to have a private party to book it at the Ashburner.“

“100/10 was surprised to see there wasn't much of a like compared to other spots. We almost went to chipotle or Panda Express until we saw this spot. Smelled so good & it was too!! The staff was friendly & we got such a bang for our buck! 2 people even came up to us to ask where we had got our food! Loved the variety the bento box so much, would definitely recommend to eat here.“
