20 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Newark

“This is the best lunch spot on main street. Great value for money, and the staff are really nice“

“I’ve been coming here for months now and I’ve never been disappointed. My go-to is the lamb (so tender!) platter (over rice, lettuce & diced tomatoes & cucumbers) drizzled in white sauce (& the hot sauce is hot enough lol). I get chickpeas added. It is good every time! Which at this point is every other weekend. Additionally, service is always friendly & professional and the restaurant is clean. Other items I’ve tried: the fried chicken sandwich, fries and fish gyro (not all together lol). All items are good but the lamb platter is top tier. Highly recommend.“

“Went there on a recommendation from a coworker. Loved it!!! the food the service was awesome. I would recommend this place to anyone!!! Definitely gong back!!!
I was told to get the soy and garlic wings. They were insane. I also tried the honey and garlic wings. They were just as good. Will definitely go back again!!!“

“I stopped by Raising Cane's yesterday and was pleasantly surprised by how simple, yet satisfying the experience was. The menu is straightforward, focusing mainly on chicken fingers, which were incredibly crispy and tender. The Cane’s sauce definitely lives up to the hype—tangy with just the right amount of kick. Even the crinkle-cut fries were hot and perfectly seasoned.

The staff were friendly and kept the place clean, which made dining in a nice experience. My only critique would be that the options are a bit limited, so if you’re looking for variety, you won’t find much beyond the core items. But if you’re craving consistently good chicken fingers, it’s hard to go wrong here.“

“This is the best Chick-fil-A. it's the typical salty Chick-fil-A food that should be enjoyed in moderation, of course, but this particular location has really great service. The lobby is pretty large, and the play place really gives you an option for a fun place to take your little ones. They have this place well-staffed on all shifts, and there are usually workers floating around the lobby making sure the customers have everything they need. This kind of service is getting rare at many fast food establishments. There is never a huge wait here, and if they forget something, there is usually someone nearby you can flag down to fix it quickly. So many other fast food chains are really suffering and the experience has
tanked in quality because there just aren't enough adequately trained people on any given shift to take your order, make and serve your food *and* keep the place clean and the drink, condiments, and supplies stocked and operational. This place is always busy, and it's because people can rely on good service.

Kid-friendliness: They have family nights with games, activities, and promos where they partner with other businesses and organizations. The cow comes out to pose for pictures with the kids too. The play place is always helpful for younger kids to make friends and have some fun.“

“I bit into the chicken strip, and its entire meat just crushed like a snow. My entire body shivered. Ain't no Michelin restaurant can deliver this kind of experience. Thumbs up for kitchen crew and the owner who's keeping the standard of chick game so high!!“

“Today train very hard , I was shocked at how the rain water poured into the restaurant. It’s time the owner fixes the roof I know you can afford it it’s time to invest in your business“

“Great bowls and burritos! Well above the chain options. Food is fresh, delicious and place is clean and customer service friendly.“

“The nicest black kid in the area! I love his positive eneregy, every time I come in he greats everyone with a smile and gives off a enchanting energy.

his name is drew and he normally wears a red hat, he's a terrific worker.“

“Gary service and great creams!!“

“Always good food. The staff could take a bit more care with the customers. Maybe I yroduce a tip system and lower their wage? Just kidding. I just wish the employees cared more about how they address cuatomers. The inside was a sticky mess.“

“I went at a time when there was only 1 other family being served, so everything was great.
I made a mobile order from far away at another Taco Bell. By the time I got there my fries were cold. They totally understood and replaced the fries for me with no issues. I choose to believe the employee would have maintained his good attitude in a busy environment. Kudos.“

“Very helpful and friendly plus very good cheeseburger!💕“

“There Junior Bacon Cheeseburgers and Cheesy Baked Potato’s are everything 🙌🙌🙌“

“This popeyes puts the popeyes on rt 40 (pulaski hwy) to shame. Here the employees are nice and helpful , rt 40 rude smart a$$ remarks, here they always have what I want, rt 40 is somehow out of spicy tenders an hour before they close everyday.“

“I was here on April the 8th, ordered food, and while waiting gun shots rang out!!! We evacuated, and I never received my food, and forgot about it!!!! I came back, explained to Ms. Maya showed her my order on my app, and without question nor hesitation, made my order over and honored my word!!! And this was a while after it happened!!! Says a lot about how they feel about their customers, and the integrity of their name!!! Employees represent every business, and they found and hired a jewel when they hired this pleasant spirited young lady!!! Thank you!!!“

“Had a delightful experience, I ordered my food and waited for it to be made in my car since I had a work call, I set my timer for 15 minutes cause that's how long it said on the app, The wonderful woman working there brought it out to my car and delivered it to me, that is phenomenal customer service. And this location has won my loyalty for life. Truly, a sub above“

“We had an exemplary experience at this McDonald’s location. We were there for a celebratory occasion and as we all know, McDonalds food never disappoints. What elevated our experience was the warm and friendly atmosphere. We felt very welcome and that our visit truly mattered. Thank you , McDonalds!“

“I am giving this awesome review because the young men that worked tonight (7/11/25) deserve it!! Our food was hot, fresh and good! They were obviously short staffed and the AC inside the restaurant was broken. Despite that challenging obstacle in 90 degree weather, that did not stop them from working hard and diligently! They were all so friendly and worked well together. Please fix the AC and keep up the great work!!“

“It was not what I thought. They do have everything I expected except beer lol. I thought all royal farms sold alcohol, but I was wrong. Of your hungry or have to use the bathroom stop in.. The only thing I did not like was the service. It took awhile for them to get to the front to serve me. But still 5 star in my books. I was just passing by and had to use the bathroom.“
