50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Avenel

“It was my first time there, and the lady who identified herself as the owner (Kelly) was very pleasant and helpful. She took her time explaining the drinks and their ingredients to me. I left there with 3 orders??‍♀️. The drinks were so good. Directions from Google were confusing. If you know the area, Highland Bubble Tea is on the opposite end of the bridge where Jersey Boys Pizza is located.
It can be tricky if you don't know the area. It's almost across from the new Performing Arts Center in Avenel! So, if you're looking at the PAC from Avenel St., in Avenel, Highland Bubble Tea is on your left side, across the street b4 going down the bridge. Lots of drinks and tasty snacks to enjoy. I didn't give it 5 stars because of the parking and the difficulty in finding it. Enjoy!!!“

“what an amazing place. came to hear the Openers band the pizza was the best I have had in a long time. The owners were so involved and very nice. I live an hour away. I will be back.“

“Great food. Great service“

“Can I please give it 6 stars? I recently went there with a group of five family members while visiting New Jersey and we had a truly extraordinary night! As an investor in restaurants I'm very critical when visiting any restaurant and not often impressed even with well known critically acclaimed restaurants. It's very rare when a place has truly incredible food with every appetizer and entree as well as first class VIP vibes for service. You could literally taste the passion and care put into every plate with beautifully prepared flavorful abundant meals. In fact, it was the first time in almost a decade I brought home leftovers as the meal was delicious and easily sufficient for two people. Our entire table raved about their meals and the attentive but not obtrusive service was always there to refill our wine and assist without any of us having to look up for service. The food alone would have made for a great night but what truly made it memorable besides the great waitstaff was the manager, Eli. When was the last time a manager, GM or owner greated you at your table to share a polite, interesting and passionate conversation about the food and why they love sharing this experience with their valued customers? He made our entire table feel like VIPs and made perfect recommendations for wine and dessert. It felt more like we were in someone's home as we were there for close to 3-1/2 hours talking, eating, drinking and laughing. The ambiance is warm and unpretentious and the memories of a great experience will certainly bring us back again.“

“Everything! I loved Nick’s. First time there and it did not disappoint.“

“So glad I stopped in!! $39 for a full bottle of Malbec Red Wine!!! 🤯 If I was heading home, I'd have grabbed a bottle or two of the other wine offerings to go!! The prices are insanely good for wine and food! The arugula salad ($20) with tuna ($6) was delicious and had SO MUCH fresh avocado in it!!! Mauricio came by to clean up my plates quickly and offer me water! Ian was a fantastic waiter who had a contagious upbeat attitude and did a fun show of opening the wine and serving me in general!!!! Also, the cheesecake is sooo good!!!“

“An incredible experience at Panas House! I loved the food, it really exceeded all my expectations. The quality of the dishes is impressive, priceless. Every bite was full of flavor and love, with fresh and well-prepared ingredients. The plates are quite large, which makes the value for money even better. It shows that they take care of every detail, from presentation to flavor. I will definitely come back and recommend it to everyone!“

“Loved this cute little place!!! My daughter and I were out and about, and wanted to get some coffee, but not from the regular “chain” coffee shop, so after a quick search, we headed to Metuchen. We were lucky enough to get parking right outside, and walked in to be pleasantly surprised by the esthetic vibe. Everything was super clean, and we were greeted right away by the super friendly employee. My daughter ordered a cappuccino and I got iced coffee. We also got a cheese and pesto savory pastry and a passion fruit and coconut tres leches dessert. Everything was delicious!!!!! Thanks for the enjoyable experience. We will definitely return.“

“We had the pleasure of dining for the first time at Due 360 in Summit. From the moment we walked in, Luis the manager and Brianna welcomed us and seated us promptly. Luis was very attentive and made sure we were happy with our order. Our server Sofia was extraordinary! she was warm and friendly with genuine smile. She offered excellent recommendations and we had conversation as if we're know each other for years. We started with a complimentary bruschetta, it was tasty and nicely flavored. I ordered the Tapas- Polpo Ala Plancha, Steak Yuca Frities and Crabmeat/shrimp tacos. Everything was fresh and bursting with flavor. The portion was perfect and the presentation was impeccable. Due 360 was quite a gem of an Argentine-Italian restaurant (interesting combo but it worked!). This place is going to be my "go to" dining spot. I highly recommend it and the experience is worth it.“

“Cozy health cafe offering high protein waffles, crepes, teas/coffees, shakes, and more. I had the delicious dolce waffle which in addition to the high protein comes with fruit. The iced chai is lovely. My companion had the savory salty waffle and a berry protein shake, both of which he greatly enjoyed. We are happy to have found this gem.

“I ordered a maple cold brew with pistachio cold foam from their winter menu and a few donuts. It was all delicious!“

“I had an amazing experience dining here tonight. My boyfriend & I wanted to explore Vietnamese cuisine. I’m vegan & loved that they had multiple options for me. We ordered steamed vegetable dumplings to start. Fresh ingredients and the perfect starter to a great meal. The Thai milk tea was outstanding. Not too sweet yet creamy and addictive. The staff directed me towards the lemongrass pho with vegetables and tofu. It was out of this world! The lemongrass flavor was rich and comforting. My boyfriend ordered the Bánh mì. It was sweet and savory - the perfect balance. The baguette was fresh and the meat was very seasoned and well cooked. I had the pleasure of meeting the owner, Andy. You can tell he’s passionate about his restaurant and customers. I said I added too much chili oil to my broth (rookie mistake - it’s very spicy!) and he was kind enough to add more broth to my leftovers to lessen the heat. He was accommodating, friendly and kind. We can’t wait to explore the whole menu. Highly recommended!“

“This place is officially my go to local bakery! Victoria and her mom Laurence have been nothing but kind and helpful each time I’ve went in. My friends and family raved about the triple chocolate cake i picked up for my sisters birthday and my best friend and i enjoy a quiet breakfast and cafe on the weekends! The decor is so welcoming and bright. It’s a great place to sit, and relax! I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious pastries and French imports. It’s a piece of home for my mom, as well! 🇫🇷🥖🥐🥮🧁🎂💕“

“I love their vegan options. Everything is so fresh and tastes great. My go to place when I want good burgers and shakes.

Vegetarian options: They actually have vegan options which is why I love ordering from them. They make it taste great and don’t skip on the flavor and texture.“

“This is one of the best Vietnamese places I have ever been to and we have gone to places all over the US.“

“I’ve been going to the Hill City Deli since 1993 and love everything I’ve ever ordered; I live in Texas now, but I bring a cooler backpack with me on trips home JUST to load up Sloppy Joe Jrs, that’s how good they are. 14/10 would recommend!“

“We tried this place for the first time and it did not disappoint! We were originally nervous because of the high price point, but it was quickly justified by the quality of the food.

The fried chicken from Combo A had a light crunchy exterior, and the meat was juicy, hot, and succulent. The chicken was perfectly cooked.

The waffle fries were crunchy and slightly spicy on the outside, and fluffy on the inside. Order them as fresh as possible so it’s at its peak crunchiness.

The chicken sandwich was AWESOME. The bread was sweet which paired well with the spicy Mango Habanero sauce that we selected on the chicken. While it was on the pricey side, it was large. Worth it!!

The soy garlic sauce was sweet yet garlicky. It was really flavorful. The Seoul Buffalo sauce however, was not good. It was too tangy, and tasted like Franks Red Hot Sauce despite all of their sauces being house made.

Overall we’d HIGHLY recommend this place as a place to splurge when treating yourself to some awesome fried chicken 😍😍😍“

“It’s the best pizza ever sandwiches & Stromboli salads the pizza is very thin crust great flavor“

“Went there last week to see what this place was about. OMGGGGGG I can't say enough good things about it. I had the matzo ball soup and 1/2 pastrami sandwich with a side of coleslaw. Everything was absolutely delicious. The soup tasted like my grandmother made it. I cantcwait to go back and try other things, especially the breakfast options. The waitstaff was so attentive.“

“Such a great place with a wonderful atmosphere and great food we love it 😊“

“Very good coffee and pastries! Happy to have this place in the neighborhood. Hot and cold drink are great and not all sugar etc. Tried the pandan, lavender and caramel and spinach feta pastry all delicious.

Dietary restrictions: They have coconut milk and not all cafes have that choice!“

“great place great food what a gem ....“

“As a Asian food enthusiast I’ll have to say that this place have one of the best Pork Fried Rice in the area, we visit this place very frequently portions are good people is kind, prices might not be like other places but, Rahway is not linden or Elizabeth rent is higher at this area. Parking is an around the building located at the back, Not a fancy place not a dine in place but at the end of the day food is amazing.

Parking: PARKING AVAILABLE BACK OF THE BUILDING“

“Comfortable environment with knowledgeable & friendly staff. Always have something that I enjoy and let you sample before a full pour. The menu changes often enough that there is something new to try but also the classics on standby. Located in a quite area but close enough to rt 1 so pretty much anywhere will deliver. They also offer different events and food trucks, so there is always something to look forward to.... the best part? They're SUPER dog friendly!“

“Great vegan bakery with a bunch of GF options too! I’m not GF, but it’s great to see so many options. I had a few things and everything was delicious! I especially loved the “chicken” ranch wrap! So glad I was able to check it out here!“

“Great place, great environment, owner and staff were very professional and accommodating, food was great and very prompt. I highly recommend this place.“

“Great wine different flights to sample. You can even buy bottles“

“Great my favorite place to get the Boba tea“

“Amazing food and great customer service ! Highly recommend to try it , you will get hooked . 🇵🇱“

“I used to order Pho from here all of the time and now it is different. I came on google to see if there was a change and saw the comment below that it’s new owners so it makes sense. I noticed a difference in the quantity of noodles and lack of chop sticks with my order and that’s what made me check on google.
It’s about $5 more per Pho. They do give a large portion of meat which is nice.

I do wish this business well, the pho is still good, but the ordering system is a little different too for building your pho as well.“
