50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Avenel

“We love the cozy atmosphere of D'Italia in addition to the delicious food. The service is always excellent!“

“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.“

“Anáis is a great server I recommend her she is the best“

“Wine was ok, but the cake...........................insane“

“I went to The Corner Haus for breakfast and ordered the blueberry pancakes. They were really good—soft, fluffy, and full of blueberries. The customer service was also amazing. Everyone in restaurant was so friendly and made me feel welcome from the moment I walked in. Overall, I had a great experience, and I would definitely come back again.“

“wow, amazing!! very unique flavors, friendly staff and a great atmosphere. i had the cassava latte and the leche flan latte. highly recommend! wish i lived in the area so i could come here again!“

“So freaking delicious! Portions are huge in my opinion for stuffed arepas, so you are definitely getting your moneys worth. Tried the fruit salad as well, the fruit was fresh and presentation was so nice although it was a takeout order. There is definitely a little bit of a wait time on your food, they are making it with love… so be patient. Will be back to try more!“

“Great food. Cant wait to go back and try something new.“

“The food was excellent, with a good variety; the waitress who served me was very friendly and professional; the manager was also very friendly and stopped by several times to ask how we were doing and if everything was alright. All in all, an excellent place.“

“As a first time customer, it’s safe to say I’ll be back. I had the tropical dragon bowl which was delicious and was even offered a free sample of one of their juices which I may have next time I go! The staff were very friendly and the atmosphere gave me a cozy home vibe.“

“The food was very delicious and fresh. Everyone was very pleased . The service was very friendly and responsive. They also provided very generous sizes to very reasonable price. Highly recommended“

“I struggle to find words that can do Bonney’s justice. The food is phenomenal, and the portions beyond generous. The fusion of Jamaican and Filipino staples creates such a beautiful symphony of flavors, it’s truly unique and out of this world delicious! However, it is the service and atmosphere, so warm and inviting, that it feels like a weekend barbecue with close friends and family that takes it up a notch from great restaurant to a special experience.“

“By far, one of the best bagels places I’ve ever been, the atmosphere it’s very comfortable
And the staff is very, very friendly definitely coming back again… it’s unfortunate. I don’t live around here. :((“

“Delicious, great service, kind and attentive. Out of all mango places in the area of 500 mi it’s the best! Oh, yes, and if the kid needs to do ap physics class, it’s quiet and cozy to study too. Physics sounds much better with ice cream!“

“We ordered delivery to Union. Our order arrived about 30 min early and was fresh, hot and delicious!! I highly recommend this location and will become a regular customer.“

“I went to Dave's for the first time yesterday 7/5. We ordered through the kiosk.The service was fast, friendly and efficient. Even though it was very busy. I got the x men box. The food was good. I got the mild chicken slider. Mild was the right amount of heat for me. Hot but not to hot. One thing I'll note, each meal does not come with a drink. This is very puzzling. Other than that, we will definitely be back.“

“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.“

“Taco Empreso is number one in all NJ & NY my absolute favorite spot. Not only is the food top tier but the drinks are amazing too. The piña colada is my favorite, the churros are delicious, and the tacos with mango are a must try. Even though the place is always packed, they’re always fast, and that says a lot you can tell everything is made fresh. The customer service is excellent, and Joanna is wonderful. She always makes sure my family and I feel satisfied every time we go. Taco Empreso, truly the best.“

“The host Ranjitha and team deccan spice were excellent. Would recommend to everybody😊“

“Excellent cold sesame noodles! Everything is so fresh!“

“corn beef Ruben + Rice Pudding dessert excellent“

“Today was our second time getting take out, ordered two different dishes and both were excellent as were the two we got a week ago. They "get it" when it comes to balanced flavor, variety of veggies and even the way they cut them with a special slicer was perfect. Truly Thai is now our go-to Thai food destination. I hope it doesn't change and they keep up this quality.“

“Pana House Restaurant is a fantastic spot for Venezuelan food! I had the pabellón, which was delicious with tender shredded beef, black beans, rice, and fried plantains. The Venezuelan sample platter was also great, featuring tasty arepas, empanadas, and tequeños. The atmosphere is welcoming, and the staff is friendly. Definitely recommend checking it out!“

“Haven’t been to Ruby Tuesdays in FOREVER! Forgot what I was missing out on because their Trio Sampler is amazing. The unlimited Mango Iced Tea was better than I remembered it. Our server Danni was on her game and gave us a great dining experience after a long day! Really happy to have rediscovered this after visiting the mall. Will definitely come back and enjoy soon!“

“Best pizza I’ve ever eaten in my life!“

“Excellent food and the exceptional service given by the waitresses Lucy with her friendliness and attention to all customers“

“I had such a great experience at CAVA in Union! The service was outstanding, and our waiter Jimmy was incredibly kind, attentive, and welcoming. He made sure we had everything we needed and genuinely made the experience even better. The food was fresh and delicious, and the whole visit was great from start to finish. Definitely one of the better experiences I’ve had, and I’ll absolutely be coming back!“

“I went here tonight for my father’s birthday and the experience overall was wonderful. The staff were so kind and welcoming, our waitress was friendly and engaging, and the food was absolutely delicious! I can’t wait to go back and try more stuff off the menu. Also the tres leches was some of the best I’ve ever had 🤤“

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

“Simple, unpretentious, affordable, excellent. What more can I say. Everything is fresh with that homemade taste and quality. Their tres leches cake is out of this world, the crepes made by David are delicious, Lily was very patient, understanding my order, she has amazing customer service skills! Great service and atmosphere! 100% satisfied.“

“Great location great business grade coffee downtown , Cranford the best“

“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.“

“Had to make a visit at Taco Stop Llc in Rt 35 and I was really hungry. Ufffffff - Pork chops I haven’t had in a while and can you believe D Cesiah Jimenez Burgos, owner made ‘tostones’ and of course the chips with guacamole 🥑. Sent my wife in Florida the pictures. Sorry babe. It was AMAZING! TACO STOP, THE PLACE TO GO WHEN YOU’RE ON THE GO! Recommended 100%+ You won’t regret it!“

“Great + fast service! Delicious“

“Il Forno was a very pleasant surprise. The lunch specials exceeded my expectations. The food and the service was very good. I would recommend this restaurant to my friends.“

“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.

Vegetarian options: Not sure if Vegan (ask), but for the lacto ovo crowd it's great

“Their pizza is really good - especially the Marguerita and buffalo chicken. I hope more people start going there so they will be able to remain open. Try it! You’ll like it!“

“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 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!“

“Super friendly staff. Awesome ice cream flavors Delicious“

“Authentic North Indian food. Ambience is very nice. Friendly staff and good service.“
