“Bittersweet Farms was the perfect setting for our wedding. The venue is beautiful and full of charm. From the moment we toured the venue, we knew it was the right place. The grounds are stunning, the layout is thoughtful, and it has that cozy, timeless feel we were looking for. What truly made the experience exceptional was Abby, our coordinator. She was incredible from start to finish. She was detail-oriented, and so easy to work with. Abby made sure everything ran smoothly the entire day and handled all the little things before we even had a chance to notice them. She truly went above and beyond to make sure we could relax and enjoy the moment. Our guests couldn’t stop complimenting the venue, and we’re still so grateful for how stress-free the day felt thanks to Abbey and the Bittersweet team. Highly recommend.“

“21 November 2025 update
How do truly feel and review a classic restaurant like this when the business has been sold. Our experiences and this cuisine is non transferable. There is no other Polish food in this area like this and therefore its a real loss. Too sad as we are going miss this.

Amazing and not to be missed. Make the drive over to South Main St., where you will be served freshly prepared Polish food that is affordable and the best in the region. You will not be disappointed!“

“Yesterday my mom, son and I went to eat at the sail loft. The food and service was absolutely amazing. I had ordered a to go dinner for my husband and when I got it home to him, his chicken seemed raw. I called them just to let them know what had happened. They offered to replace the meal and deliver it to us! They were so accommodating and even gave us a gift card to come back. AMAZING service that you don’t always get these days. Thank you Sail Loft - we will be back very soon!“

“Very pleasantly surprised! Great menu and service. We ate at the bar. The atmosphere is nice and low key. We can't wait to go back.“

“I would highly recommend Little Moss. Creative menu. Very comfortable dining experience. Terrific service. Food was delicious. Soft shell crab and Foaccia bread and ricotta for apps were a great way to start off the night. It only got better from there.“

“love the food and drinks they were AMAZING ❤️❤️💯“

“Every time I come up to this area- we make sure to get Harry’s for breakfast! The service is super fast - the restaurant has an old school diner feel while still being clean and well-maintained. Now the food?? Amazing. You cannot, absolutely cannot, miss their chicken Mozambique omelette with potatoes- I’m drooling just thinking about it honestly. Everyone does hype that up, yes, but other menu items are just as delicious - I particularly enjoy their French toast. Do yourself a favor and eat here.“

“I decided to treat myself and come on a little solo vacation. This is such an accommodating warm spot. Evan and the whole staff treated me with such kindness as I was dining by myself in the busy summer season the mussels were amazing ! The lobster bisque is not to be missed and the local Winery three thieves was delicious. I recommend this place highly !“

“"I've had the pleasure of visiting Cornerstone Lounge multiple times, and it never fails to impress. The dishes are exquisitely delicious - I've tried them all, and each one is a standout. The drinks, music, and ambiance come together to create an amazing atmosphere that's perfect for any occasion. The service is top-notch, with attentive and knowledgeable staff who make sure you're well taken care of. Our server was particularly friendly and made the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, I love Stone Corner Lounge and can't wait to return. Highly recommend!"“

“Stephanie was an exceptional bartender—easily one of the best servers we've ever had. She was incredibly knowledgeable about gluten-free options, which made a huge difference for us. Her attention to detail was impressive, from promptly changing out silverware between courses to keeping our drinks filled without us ever needing to ask. The food was outstanding! The carpaccio was the best we’ve had, and the gluten-free s’mores dessert was absolutely delicious—a perfect ending to the meal. The atmosphere had a great vibe with stunning views, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Delicious and great priced fish and chips definitely the best in the city“

“Joe’s has for a long time proved itself to be a consistent joy to dine at. The food always arrives prompt, hot, and delicious. Definitely don’t skip out on the house made desserts! Our last few visits, although spaced apart by a couple months, we were lucky enough to be waited on by Valerie. No matter how much time passes, she remembers our faces and always makes us feel right at home! Valerie is an exemplary server, who never misses a beat during service and provides the perfect touch of humor, personality, and charm to enhance our experience. Everything about Joe’s is top notch, but the service provided by Valerie truly makes us feel like family every time.“

“Amazing scene, great vibe and amazing live music!!“

“I went to the Granite Grille today with my friend and my grandma. My son is in the Culinary Arts program, and we wanted to experience the restaurant, and it was excellent! The students who waited on us did a great job. My watermelon lemonade was delicous, and I forgot to grab a picture of the burger for the review because it looked so good that I got right on into eating it! The waiters did good checking in with us, and answering questions we had. The students and staff are doing an amazing job. It was an all-around great experience, and we will definitely be going back soon.“

“Great place but bring cash. They do not take credit cards“

“Delicious food, great service and I highly recommend.“

“After a Dr visit at the Prima Care facility, we were looking for a close-by eatery. We enjoy Diner food so we decided on Rosarias. It didn't look like your typical NJ diners, but we were pleasantly surprised. The service was great, the atmosphere was clean & friendly, and the food was excellent with ample portions. The prices were reasonable. Will definitely come again while in the area.“

“Fantastic service!! They really catered to my disabled mom and her needs. One of the owners greeted us immediately and was very friendly and took care of us the whole time. This was our first time here, even though we live not far from it, but we will definitely recommend this place!! We will most definitely be back. Thanks for such great food and service.“

“excellent waitress and excellent food!!“

“I visit Friendly's about once a month, my client enjoys the free sundae that comes with his meal , my waitress Carole always remembers his order and he loves the tomato basil soup.“

“Another great lunch steak tip are delicious!“

“Best gluten free pancakes in the area 🔥“

“This evening we went to cask and pig for the first time ever as a belated birthday/valentine dinner we had a brand new server Marina and she was amazing to the point we thought she was training our waiter when she told us I’m training this evening she was amazing and I believe is truly an asset to this establishment! I can’t wait to return and have her as a staff member in the future ❤️ we truly enjoyed our time this evening“

“To my friend Aliya The service was excellent friendly, attentive, and professional throughout the entire meal. She made me feel welcome as always , checked in at right moments, and handled everything smoothly. Great experience! I’ll be back like I always did 😊“

“Oh my goodness, we had the BEST experience at this restaurant. The restaurant has a comfortable, family like feel. You can tell most of the people are regulars. The food was excellent seafood, fresh and well prepared. Each dish our large group got was thoroughly enjoyed. But, the BEST part of the experience was our waitress, Joyelle. She was the only waitress in the room, which she took control of with ease, and she was so funny. My dad's a jokester, and she gave it right back. We had a lot of fun and we laughed and laughed. She took great care of us. So, couple divine food with an amazing personality taking care of us - you get perfection.“

“Our Server Michael was very pleasant and attentive to our needs and wants at the table. I would highly recommend him as a waiter and look forward to going back to Applebee's to have him serve us as a waiter. FOr someone who's only been waiting tables at Applebee's, for three weeks, we were extremely impressed with his mannerism and his professionalism, hopefully in the future a management position. Will be offered ito him.
OWNER
CLASSIC BAKERY“

“I’ve been ordering (mostly breakfast) from this restaurant for a couple of months now. It’s honestly such a hidden gem!!! I keep telling people about it because I’ve been that impressed. Everything is always cooked perfectly, seasoned perfectly, homemade and great portions. I can’t wait to try more!“

“We were here visiting and found this little place outside Newport and it was amazing! We had two lobsters and steamers the servers were great. It's very laid-back fun atmosphere.!! Definitely five stars!!“

“Go there for the anti-semitism. Stay for the anti-Semitic owners.“

“seafood is always Fresh
The batter on the fish and chips It’s A light breadcrumb coating I like that because it doesn’t make you feel greasy when you’re done eating .
The bake cod is my favorite it just flake’s apart just like it should when cooked perfectly…
Love the homemade Stuffed Hogs ..
The scallops are big and juicy their sweetness is addicting..
Love to read other reviews I think it’s important to see if there’s someone who constantly complains Or if their fair on their reviews, it’s always very interesting to see their history..“

“Huge menu, great food, also soup or salad with entree. Nice service, a little noisy, but worth trip.“

“I find the food is very good and it's nice to go on a date night there my husband and I love the whole scene“

“I love Halal but couldn’t find anything local. Then I heard about this place, so I gave it a try. This place is 🔥🔥🔥. Chicken/Lamb combo is awesome. Can’t wait to go back“

“This is a great place to grab a drink and listen to live music. Not a place I would grab food again. I’ve given it a couple of tries and the food both times has taken a long time to come out. First time we had a large group (place was empty) but we decided to give it another try recently. We didn’t have elaborate meals - 3 meals for takeout. Salad, chicken and chips, and grilled tenders and cucumber salad. My allergy free salad had a crouton in it the first time I ate there and the chicken has dark black grill marks. The second time I ordered it with the house dressing and beef tips - it was told to me it was gluten and dairy free. Once I got the salad home, I realized they had packed blue cheese instead. The beef tips on it were terrible as well. The manager/owner comes out to discuss allergens but it doesn’t appear that anyone checks the orders like at other restaurants I have been to. I’m aware it’s always a risk going out but that shows they didn’t put attention to my gluten allergy free order either time. The cucumber salad was soggy and disgusting, not prepared that day. It’s an awesome place to check out for a drink and music but the food (at least options we selected) were not great regardless of the allergy vs non allergy items. Definitely check out for a drink and the music, great atmosphere for that.“

“Great food. second time we came. first time we had the Lobster BLT. This time I had the scallop and clam dinner. Both times excellent. Cheesecake could definitely be better.... I know a guy“

“Great pizza 🍕!! Prime rib is a good portion! Hot meatball grinder or ziti with meatballs is also a favorite. Excellent fish and chips-freshest fish ever! Great atmosphere and reasonably priced. Oh, they have a salad 🥗 with grilled chicken, dried cranberries, cheese 🧀, cukes, onions and they have a raspberry vinaigrette that is sooooo good!! I make my own but this I could drink by the glass!! Lol 😂“

“aww, they've honestly been real nice to me both times I've been here. the food is pretty normal/basic breakfast food, but it's good! it wasn't packed either time I went, but I'd say more people this time around. the servers managed the tables well, and my server in particular was very kind. The food was hot & tastes as it should. Thank you!!“

“Always enjoy my selections, have tried many different dishes,lastly being your tuna melt( enjoyed) and was enough for two meals.Hubby is picky eater(always orders your clam chowder) along with some type of seafood.Thanks 👍“

“The food is excellent but the manager who thinks it raises morale by screeching “Woo” at the top of her lungs every few minutes is ridiculous and unprofessional and not to mention disrupting what would be a pleasant dining experience. What is she thinking?“
