“Fantastic experience! I am on the road a lot for work and this place made me feel like I was at home having a Sunday night meal. The bartenders have great comedic timing and it is one of my favorite spots in NJ. ❤️”
“Billiard, Whiskey, Dr. Peppers and Food AND OF COURSE: Great People”
“This is a friendly, fun and attractive restaurant, completely transformed from its previous iteration. Good food, service and drinks. I've enjoyed it for lunch and dinner!”
“Had our reunion dinner there last night. The food was outstanding and our waitress was tremendous. She did a fantastic job.”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“This convenience store is very small. Hard to social distance. The guys who work there are very nice. This store has been in the neighborhood for about 50 years.”
“Peter's Place is like a Trenton Cheers. Bartenders are amazing, drinks reasonably priced, patrons are welcoming and friendly. Come on down and have a drink. First one will be on "The Sport" Mikey (the owner).”
Restaurants with Delivery
“We 🩷 First!! It’s a place where the staff is amazing & have become “framily”, it’s a place where you always feel welcome and there are always familiar faces & smiles to greet you, its a place that’s become our “go to”, it’s a place we go for “good food” (can’t get enough of their grilled salmon!)… it’s just a great place to be for so many reasons!”
“The sandwiches are solid and substantial, the best part is the owner will get to know you and your preferred order after the first visit. Guy is super nice and personable and is cool guy to chat with. Easy to order, makes the order real quick and fair prices on a good sandwich. Good selection of chips and drinks too.”
“It's now called Rosa's, same location!! I've only had the pizza a handful of time and I got to say it's very very good!! Definitely going to try the macaroni and cheese in next time ?”
“Great dive bar for stiff drinks, old school music to sing along to and drunken bar food. There is also an outside seating area (public bench project) Also right next to the best crepes!”

“I was quite surprised the food was very good. I am picky and I was extremely satisfied. The food portions were more than enough. And the price I paid was fantastic!!! The staff was very personable. I'm definitely going back. I even had fresh Lemonade. They had several flavors. If you had a bad experience here I urge you to go back!”
“Dinner June of 2025, Excellent all around!! The Service!!! The food was perfect!!! Better than the service I had received at Morton's in AC. The booths could be spot cleaned and a couple of older tables replaced, but the people there were exceptional and attentive and on point.”
“I am writing this review specifically to compliment the server Ritchley Junior M who not only displayed a gentle demeanor but was very welcoming and asked us every now and then if the food was good or we needed anything. We ordered minimal food like rigatoni pasta with five cheese marinara and breadstick with salad and felt very satisfied with our dinner with good potion of serving.”
“Enjoyable thin and crispy crust, tomato sauce has the most amazing flavor. We enjoyed it with sausage- also had great flavor. There is a large edge to the crust. Just wish the sauce and cheese went closer to the edge. But that’s our preference. Had terrific and efficient service from Ryan. FYI you can order it lite- so it is not as crispy or well, for more crispy and char. We didn’t make a request and it came out perfect. We ate in - booths are very comfortable and pizza always tastes better fresh out of the oven. Highly recommend.”
“I've never really had the chance to eat here, but man the food smells GREAT! The bartender is SUPER FRIENDLY! It has a great atmosphere. So I'm gonna give them all STARS. Who am I. I'm Pete's friendly soda delivery driver, Donnie from Vineland ”
“Whether you want to enjoy a live music performance or find a quiet corner to chat with friends, New Jersey bars can meet your different needs.”

“Having moved from Maine to Pennsylvania almost 25 years ago, we yearned for the fresh-caught seafood we had grown accustomed to…. Until Cousins Maine Lobster rolled into town! I am excited when they are in my area, and make it a point to treat myself whenever I can. The rolls are fresh, not frozen, and so delicious. Don’t forget a cup of chowder and a whoopie pie!”
“Stepping into this Burger King, you’re immediately greeted by a welcoming interior that promises a comfortable dining experience. The cleanliness of the restrooms is a testament to the staff’s attention to detail, ensuring every aspect of the customer experience is pleasant. The food, as always, is delicious and satisfying, living up to the brand’s reputation. What truly sets this location apart, however, is the exceptional service, particularly from the manager, whose helpfulness and dedication to customer satisfaction are noteworthy. A fast-food experience that feels a cut above the rest.”
“Both persons behind the counter were focused and friendly! I was grateful at how efficient they were which got me back on the road faster. And it was an excellent touch that despite being in a busy travel plaza, they double checked to make sure I didn't leave without startling perfect order and sauce! The food was fresh and a hell of a lot better than I expected from the rest station so I really hope this crew is working the next time I pass through. I was delighted!”
“The owner Angela is very nice always with a smile I call them family because they got me hooked crazyyy looking for fresh seafood with great prices stop by a visit and report back here and let me know!! Tell her Poison sent you❤️❤️❤️”
“There is a fantastic amount of merchandise to choose from. I’ve received many compliments on the skirt, jacket and top that I purchased.”

“This is the best Jamaican/Southern place I’ve encountered. Made me feel at home. Portions are huge and worth the money. I had the stew chicken with rice and peas to satisfy the Jamaican food I NEEDED lol and the baked Mac n cheese with collard greens to satisfy my southern taste buds. Come with super good cornbread as well. Super fulfilling. The lady was also very sweet. Later on I also got the Rasta pasta and requested it to be spicy and it hit the Spot! Thank you!!”
“I give classic Subs 4 stars only because I think they could be a little more sanitary when it comes to making sandwiches. For instance, when there making sandwiches, they go from making one sandwiche right to the next without changing their gloves. Also not putting paper down before making your sandwich. Other than that the sandwiches are delicious, and I will definitely go back.”
“You will always see this place full of happy returning patrons and we are two of them. Food quality is fresh, tasty and reasonably priced. You have to try their Brick Oven pizzas. If you crave an American cheese hoagie, that is prepared on the best tasting roll in New Jersey, delicious cheese, and crisp lettuce and onions, try one of theirs. The very best that we have ever judged.”
“I have to thank KK Sweets for the fabulous cake, cookies, macarons, and caneles. I couldn't have imagined a better cake. My idea of some of my favorite things on my cake, I thought couldn't be done. But KK Sweets came up with this amazing concept. That is totally me! And the witch's hat on top brought it together to match my theme of a "Salem Chic" 40th birthday party. It was too beautiful to cut, but we did...and it was delicious. The best cake I think I've ever had for any of my birthdays. For your next event, please go to KK Sweets in Hamilton on Quakerbridge Road. You will not be disappointed!”
“We don't often go to the S Olden Ave location but we were pleasantly surprised with the top notch service we received tonight. The two young ladies working there tonight were both very pleasant and friendly, seemed generally interested in providing great service and did a delicious job making our sundaes. We've had less then good service at other local Carvel locations. Very glad we tried going there again.”
“Truly outstanding food and most welcoming atmosphere! I had the Beef rib soup with vegetables, Olla e Carne--Excellent!! Very comfortable parking space and special attention to disabled person using a walker. A great Latino cultural experience in the heart of Trenton.”
“Classy place with excellent food.
The owner Richard always courteous, professional, and welcoming as are his staff.
Trenton is lucky to have top notch dining and music establishment like this.”

“Great time, great drinks, great company.”
“Stopped in to try out the rolls for our 2023 catering season. While we were at it..Grabbed a few hoagies that were 🔥🔥🔥. And the rolls are the best tasting in the tri state. So many different styles to choose from. Look forward to using them. Thanks Matt for letting us take a tour..highly recommend them for baked goods to anyone in and out of the food industry!”
“when i walked in i was genuinely shocked. the place is amazing it’s like 3 different restaurants in one. dessert, spanish, and italian. the atmosphere is also amazing. out back is very clean with beautiful furniture. this isn’t even all of it. seriously guys. shout to tony man. a real cool guy
Kid-friendliness: ice cream and cookies? that’s all i gotta say.”
“The owner is very friendly, the food is tasty and the prices are reasonable. Do not be put off by the area, and just turn the corner for additional parking because right up front is hard to park at times. They do vietnamese, Thai and Chinese food. They also have specialty drinks. I highly recommend their mixed vermicelli bowls and pho.”

“A true gem!
Stumbled across this place online and stopped by while I was in the area. An awesome, genuine pub.
The bartender Jude was nice and made me feel at home.
Poured a great pint (and halfie) as well and got chatting with the owner as well.
Incredible whiskey selection which I'll have to delve into next time I go.
Will definitely be back!”
“Been fienin for a pork roll egg and cheese sandwich since my hometown tigers deli no longer exists.. This place caught me off guard because it looks like a house. The hospitality was great , nostalgic days with the guys in there talking sports and joking.
I ordered 2 pork roll egg and cheese sandwiches, they were out of Kaiser rolls but the back up bread was very fresh and good. Sandwiches were great. Pork roll was not thin either the thick slices...I would've took a picture but we ate it ?.
Thanks”

“Great service, delicious food, nice atmosphere. Our waitress was amazing and the food was exploding with flavor. I will definitely return.”
“Overall great experience. Great empanaditas and Bandeja paisa. Our only suggestion is for them to blenderize the Pina Colada to make it into a slush instead of just chunks of ice. We'll be back to try other dishes.”
“Had the yummiest brown stew chicken dish and carrot cake this evening. This was my first time here and really enjoyed it! Visited the Lawrenceville location. Very friendly staff. Thank you!!!! Highly recommend 🙂”
“Oh my goodness, really great food for a decent price. I got the pork and broccoli, great tasting sauce on it, flavorful. The wonton soup was soooo hot and fresh you can tell it was freshly made. Great food and I will order again!”

“Stepping into The Orchid House in Trenton feels like a warm hug from a beloved family member. This gem isn't just a restaurant; it's an experience that lingers long after your last bite. The food (primarily vegetarian/vegan) takes center stage; they craft every dish of fresh ingredients and unique flavors. They have an array of delicious natural juices that our team couldn't stop drinking, so we purchased all they had left. Every bite and sip is a journey for your taste buds. But what truly makes The Orchid House shine is its service. The staff's hospitality is genuine, offering warm smiles alongside knowledgeable recommendations. The ambiance is equally inviting and offers comfort. Soft lighting and gentle music create a haven for relaxed dining. And the heart of it all? The passionate owners pour their love for food and community into every aspect of the restaurant. So, if you're seeking an unparalleled culinary adventure where every guest feels like family, The Orchid House awaits with open arms (and delicious food!).”
“I just left Ila Mae’s and was very pleased with the food and service. I am a foodie so I got shrimp and grits with cheese, chicken and waffles, spinach omelet with bacon…my tummy was happy! Of course I have food left to take home to enjoy later. I found this restaurant online and was a little skeptical because I am not from the area.I will be returning❤️”
