“First time coming here for dinner with the family to celebrate my birthday on St. Patrick’s day! Food was excellent. My fiancé is born and raised British and she absolutely loved the bangers and mash! The chicken schnitzel was delicious! Atmosphere inside was fun and relaxing. Bag pipe player walking around. Manager came over twice and checked on us! Thank you for a great meal!“
“I've heard the term "out of body experience" before but could never truly say I've had one until I sank my teeth into a cheboygah (cheese burger for the layman's) at Village Saloon. Paired with fresh cut fries (fresh cuts for the hip) this cheboygah will change everything you ever thought was possible in culinary art. Their chilli is a meaty dense dark texture that warms the coldest souls from the darkest corners of the earth. My wife ventured into the land of poultry there by ordering a fried chicken special. All she lent me was half a wing in fear that she would run out of chicken too fast. Our server, I never got her name as she was also bartending / changing the lives of men and women who were experiencing the saloon, was nothing short of a messenger of God. Bringing food and drinks promptly and kindly and ensuring we did not faint out of pure bliss during our dining experience. All humans must enter this establishment and order a cheboygah. This is the only way to have the best in the universe. It will ruin all other boygahs for you at every place you ever get one. The fact that it comes with fresh cuts fried to superior excellence elevates your situation beyond your wildest dreams. Life begins anew when you leave here. There is nothing else but days of longing for the next time you get to go to Village Saloon.Kid-friendliness: Highchairs“
“New chef absolutely turned this place around. My gosh. What a difference. The ambiance is awesome and the food is perfection. The octopus is always my favorite and I usually get the porter house or the surf and turf. Put this in the rotation for date nights and great setting for socializing and friends.“
“Imagine the vibe and atmosphere Cracker Barrel goes for - a rustic, old world, farm and industry inspired, old timey facade.This place is like that, but everything from the structural timbers of the building to the artifacts on the wall are all real, 100% authentic, everything there has actual history and was used at that location. Even if you don't care about that you'll find yourself admiring the building itself because things just are not built like that today.The service is great and the food is excellent. The prices are high, but the quality the food, the atmosphere and the service is absolutely worth it.“
“Pretty good food, amazing service and pretty amazing ambiance ! The service is always great the 3 times I've gone. The milkshakes look beautiful but they're not as tasty as they look. It's all sugar and level Chocolate or whatever flavor. The diner looks beautiful and very clean“
“Our Server Justin gave excellent personal service, the focaccia bread , the complimentary potato,appetizers, entrees and desserts were exceptional, the restaurant is in an old house set next to a farm , just enough tables in each room, very pleasant and accommodating staff and the ambiance was excellent, great job!“
“Stopped in for lunch. Atmosphere was comfortable. My server Jutay was amazing, very positive attitude. Had the soup of the day with fresh squeezed lemon, which elevated the taste even more. My burger was juicy and flavorful. My only suggestion would be to have those in the dining room, not be listening to their phone on speaker. I plan on visiting again!!“
“I finally got to Andy's after everyone telling me I had to try it out. I was not disappointed! If you are a fan of hotdogs, you must try what Andy has to offer. I tried The Pig Dog and a new option that wasn't even on the menu yet. He warned me it would be a LOT of food and he wasn't kidding, but it was so good I managed to finish it all. Try it out, then go back and try again!I will definitely be returning.“
“We had our wedding here on February 4, 2024. And all I can say is WOW, every detail was amazing! Food, above excellent! Yonnia the owner could not have catered to us any more than she did. I can not say enough about our experience. She made our wedding a huge success. Thank you, and the Aquaviva Restaurant again and again!“
“This is a fantastic old time diner. Nice neat, clean, well lite. Great food with very fair prices, fast service. Will be returning.Parking: Be careful if traveling southbound on 206 because it's 2 ways in each direction and you have to get in left lane then cross on coming cars.“
“Food is amazing and very creative. Have had breakfast lunch and dinner. The only challenge is to decide what to order. Kudos to this talented chef and her son in their kitchen. This is a gastronomic treat from an entire team that does not present any versions of the obligatory standards found on most other menus. The wait staff has a great energy, which adds to the whole dining experience. I travel from PA to experience the food and if it were closer it would certainly be a go-to for me. The attached farm market with its delightful cheeses and treats, as well as unique and wonderfully fun culinary items-and even clothing-make the entire experience a heart-warming and fulfilling journey.“
“I go once in a while they have a lot of regulars. It's a nice chill spot to have a few drinks and relax. Staff is great! I've never had a problem. Nice vibe even when I'm not drinking (I'm pregnant and still go with my bf so he can relax) but over all definitely recommend you check it “
“While being in the area, decided to stop there for lunch. Local food was good, they had a very decent beer. The view on the lake was extraordinary and in some sense, quite soothing. Prices were decent and service up to par. I'll make sure to stop there if I am ever in the area again.“
“Hands down best omelettes in Sussex County. I'm a picky breakfast gal so for breakfast I almost exclusively have western omelettes and as such consider myself an expert - so go there and get one, you won't regret it. Their homefries are yummy too! I've heard great things about the pancakes and French toast so I'll definitely have to give that a try soon!“
“I got a cake and a macaron tower and they were absolutely beautiful. The cake looked exactly like the picture and the colors were perfect. I'm so happy with the service the women that I spoke to that worked there were so kind and helpful. I would recommend them to everyone they are wonderful.“
“Gatwyns II is a very good neighborhood restaurant/ bar. The food (Portuguese Mussels and Pizza) are great but the beer choices are very poor. Lack of attention from the bar tender can be too frequent but the table service is strong. Definitely recommended, some areas could use improvement but generally happy with this place.“
“We've been coming to this place since they first opened up, and let me tell you, we haven't been let down once! The food never fails to be scrumptious, the service is always top-notch and super welcoming, and the dishes are always served up in a jiffy.“
“First visit to Alice’s. We will return. Fun bar downstairs with outside heated seating looking over the lake. The food was ok. Steak was ordered rare and that came out perfect. The Salmon though was over cooked. Sides were fine though the vegetables were a mix of warm and cold. Service was great. Nice people.“
“Had this place for the first time today. Drove only 15 minutes to it. Honestly, was greatly surprised by how great it was. Had chicken and waffles with a side of French fries. It was very good and extremely affordable. It’s exactly like home-style breakfast and will most definitely be coming here again“
“We went to Latour for our anniversary. Got a packaged deal with a 1 night stay at Minerals because we could only stay one night. The package included a credit for the 7 course dinner and wine pairing. Nothing bad to say about Latour. The chef made accommodations for myself because I'm allergic to shell fish and my spouse for not eating beef or pork and still keep it pretty close to the menu. The only dish that couldn't be altered was the pork because its portions are split between two people but that didn't bother me, the Chef substituted Oxtail me and Tortellini for my spouse, which were both on the 3 course menu. Trevor the sommelier, made adjustments with the wine pairing toatch the food and was awesome as was Blake and the rest of the wait staff. Definitely will be going back to do another 7 course dinner in the future.Dietary restrictions: Shellfish, pork, beef“
“We are new to the area, so we stopped in for a quick bite and drink.Its a nice sized place, well spaced out so you dont feel like you are on top of the next table.The staff was quick, attentive and professional.The food- AMAZING. I ordered the grilled octupus and want to come once a week to just get that. My girlfriend ordered the corned beef spring rolls and they hit the spot as well.We will def be back to explore more of the menu, as those 2 items alone have us wanting more.Parking: Is a lot of traffic but people come out and you park easyKid-friendliness: YesWheelchair accessibility: Yes“
“Today was the first time we ate out on a Holiday. Having Easter dinner @ Portofino's was the BEST!! We enjoyed a delicious meal, wonderful service and atmosphere without any 'clean up'. The food was served hot and appetizing. It couldn't get better. The entire staff was pleasant, accomodating and attentive.“
“Neighborhood pop (and mama) bar/restaurant where I believe the owner is the chef and he makes some delicious and unique food that is consistently awesome. Best cuban sandwich i've had in the area. "Shweddy Balls" are a must try (think of a meatball but made from mashed seasoned eggplant with cheese and deep fried like a falafel).“
“We catered our son's first birthday party with American BBQ and we received SO many compliments about how delicious the food was! The delivery/setup was prompt and super quick! I had numerous email exchanges with Roberta going back and forth with ideas and she was absolutely wonderful to work with! Highly recommend!!“
“Kate and her staff at Krave Caterers did an amazing job in creating a spectacular environment for my daughter and her husband's wedding at the Conservatory. Everything Kate said that she was going to do she did and she did it even better than what we could have imagined. Everything looked so beautiful! The food was great, the service was excellent, and the way they decorated was exceptional!I cannot thank Kate and her staff enough for making our special day for our daughter and her husband even more special and amazing than what we imagined! She clearly has a passion for weddings and she did everything that she could to make sure that she fulfilled my daughter's vision for her big day. She and her staff guided us with professionalism and expert advice from beginning to end with excellent communication throughout the process.I highly recommend Kate and Krave Caterers. You will not be disappointed but will have a great experience.Thanks again Kate, Molly and Anna and everyone at Krave! You all are awesome!!“
“The Beacon was so accommodating since I planned my entire wedding dinner within a month. I needed as few headaches as possible. Edna coordinated everything! The staff was very polite and attentive. Everyone LOVED the food and atmosphere. I will be coming in regularly to try the other dishes on the menu and maybe a little line dancing.“
“I was so impressed by the professional, prompt service we received at lunch on a Friday. Our server was upbeat, and he offered us coffee refills shortly before we ran out at least four times! The omelette was good, but the home fries were a little dry - if you like ketchup, you probably wouldn’t have noticed. Every meal I’ve had here was solid, however!“
“Our experience at The Windlass restaurant for Easter Brunch was simply outstanding! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm hospitality and a festive atmosphere that set the tone for a memorable dining experience with family.The selection of food at the brunch buffet was exceptional, with a wide variety of delicious options to satisfy every palate. From traditional brunch favorites to inventive chef specialties, each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The freshness and quality of the ingredients were evident in every bite, and we appreciated the attention to detail in every aspect of the meal.The ambiance of the restaurant was charming and inviting, with stunning views of Lake Hopatcong adding to the overall atmosphere. The staff were attentive and accommodating, ensuring that our dining experience was nothing short of perfect.Overall, our Easter Brunch at The Windlass exceeded our expectations in every way. We left feeling thoroughly satisfied and grateful for the wonderful memories created with family. We cannot wait to return and indulge in more of the culinary delights that this gem of a restaurant has to offer.“
“We had the pleasure of throwing my daughter's baby shower at Stone Water on St. Patrick's Day. From beginning to end, it was a complete success. Karissa worked tirelessly with me to ensure that the entire planning process was seamless and that our event would be perfect! Perfect is an understatement!!! The event exceeded all of our expectations - the room was beautiful, the staff was incredible to work with and the food was out of this world! Family and friends are still raving about the event and of course, my daughter was equally floored. We will definitely be returning for future events and truly cannot say enough about how wonderful it was to work with Karissa and all of the staff at Stone Water!“
“I’ve been going to this place since high school (probably earlier but went more when i could drive) and i’m NEVER disappointed. Same order every time. P.S THEY PUT HASHBROWN ON YOUR SANDWICH. Do it you don’t regret it!!! Thank you G&S!“
“Tuesday is karaoke night. The bar is happening but not busy, the music is on but not unmanageable, and the drinks are good. I really enjoyed my time, and the drinks, and the service. I'll only knock the fact that the menu doesn't display prices and the "not IPA craft selection" is pretty bad. Which I know is a tall ask but for 20+ beers is a little bit disappointing.I would totally go back.“
“I went there with both of my daughters & my grandchildren that are 4 years old and 1 1/2 & we enjoy ourselves. The reason we went here was because the donate a percentage of the bill to the local high school. Staff friendly & atmosphere.“
“Went for lunch today and everything was so delicious! Ordered a Brooklyn panini and Polo’s punch. Shared an order of pesto garlic park boneless wings which are a must have everytime we come. Service at the bar was amazing even for it being 12“
“This local tavern seems to have transformed itself during the pandemic! The food is amazing! I was surprised at the prices however. We intended to stop in for a few beers and burgers, it was not a special night out but it wound up costing as much as if it were. The noise levels tend to get pretty high in the bar, so you may prefer to sit in the back dining area. Go and support locally owned establishments!“
“Such a sweet place. No pressure to leave. The food is homemade. There is a coffee station to make your own cups to stay or take out. It is now our new place for us girls to meet. Breakfast can be ordered anytime. I didn't notice if there was wheelchair accessibilityVegetarian options: I just noticed that there was vegetarian options I'm not one.Kid-friendliness: I only noticed a kids menuParking: Parking right out frontDietary restrictions: I don't have any. You need to go & check it out yourself.“
“I enjoyed everything about this bright cozy place. I had the sliced steak sandwich w/ a side Caesar salad which was more than memorable & will be hard not to order again. My friend ordered the Cubano sandwich which was also 10/10, nice tender pork & the bread it's served on is perfect. Service was friendly, clean, on point & welcoming. Great wait staff! Loved the coffee. Thank you!“
“We had a fantastic time with friends. Hanging by the pool in the biosphere and having drinks and delicious pizza. It was such a nice night in the warm pool with tropical surroundings. It felt like a little vacation. The lifeguards were so friendly and welcoming that we couldn’t tell if they were at all bothered by our silly shenanigans. Would definitely do it again!“
“We held my sister’s bridal shower here & we are all blown away at how great a experience we had. From start to finish Tracey & Liz assisted us with all the planning, & were super responsive to my emails. The day of, Tracey & our servers were so kind & helpful with everything. Everyone loved the food & the cake was delicious too! Thank you so much for making my sister feel special on her special day! Will hopefully come in the future for a regular dinner or lunch just to have Chef Andre’s food again!“
