“We recently had my daughter’s soccer team lunch here on a Sunday afternoon. I spoke with the manager on duty the evening prior and it couldn’t have gone smoother. We had the whole top floor to ourselves. Service was amazing as was the food. We sometimes have issues splitting checks because the girls want to sit together away from their parents but they handled it with ease. I’m still dreaming of the delicious ice cream that was the cherry on top of a great experience.“

“excellent food and customer service always“

“New Providence Bar and Kitchen was the perfect place for my wife and I to celebrate our anniversary. We came for lunch and immediately the staff made us feel very welcome. The menu, from the drinks to the entrees, put a fun spin on familiar dishes—just enough to be unique without deviating too much from traditional favorites. The calamari appetizer with chili peppers and capers was the best I’ve ever had— flavors were amazing. The Parmesan-crusted salmon was also tasty and my wife loved her meal too. A wonderful experience!“

“I’ve been coming to Stone House at Stirling Ridge for many years, and it has always been one of my favorite places in the area. The food, drinks, and overall atmosphere are consistently exceptional.
In the spring and summer, the outdoor patio is absolutely beautiful—especially with live music, which makes the experience even more enjoyable. It’s the perfect spot for brunch, special events, weddings, or simply a great night out.
I especially love their burger, and it’s impressive that they use their own homegrown vegetables—it truly shows their commitment to quality.
Over the years, I’ve created so many wonderful memories here with family and friends. It’s truly a local gem.
Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great dining experience in the Watchung area.“

“Rock (Tavern) Fries, Wings, Burgers“

“I want to leave a review because this place truly deserves it.
First, the food is incredibly delicious. I am a big fan of this place because I have celiac disease and cannot eat gluten. They have a separate gluten-free menu, and it is also very tasty, which is very important for people like me.
They have the most delicious and very affordable French fries. They are always fresh, hot, and you can taste that the oil is fresh and the products are fresh too.
There was also a situation when I placed an order and one of the items was not available gluten-free. They called me, explained everything, and offered to replace it or give me a refund. They refunded me without any problems.
The service is incredibly pleasant. The staff is very attentive, friendly, and caring, and it always leaves a very good impression.
Thank you so much to the kitchen and the staff for being so wonderful. The owner of this place either is very lucky to have such a team or did a great job creating such a great place, because good food and good people are the most important things.“

“Amazing service been going there for as long as I can remember“

“The food is always consistent! Best pub around!“

“Best seafood soup .so far I've ever tasted“

“Cold nights call for comfort food! Harlee’s was a great spot to pick before seeing a show at nearby Papermill Playhouse (about 15-20 minutes from the theater).

Harlee’s has an amazing cocktail menu, and plenty of beer on tap which is great while you’re watching a game at the bar.

Their signature appetizers are a must have. The roasted brussel sprouts are caramelized and crispy and loaded with bacon. I loved their crispy chicken wings with sweet chili sauce, which hit the perfect sweet heat combo. The French onion soup was perfection, probably my favorite of the night, with rich savory broth that truly warmed up my cold January night. The ahi tuna bites were fresh, light, and zesty. And not something you see often at a gastropub!

When I saw disco fries on the menu, you know this Jersey girl had to get some and let me tell you, they were everything I hoped for and more.

We got the pioneer burger and the big bleu burger. They were charred beautifully yet still so juicy and tender. The onion rings they came with were delicious and crispy!

The waffles with ice cream ended dinner on a sweet note, with ice cream from Zita’s topped perfectly on the fluffy golden waffles.

This place has great food, great energy, the kindest staff, and the cutest pictures of dogs on the wall to top it all off.

If you’re visiting new Providence, Harlee’s is a must stop!!“

“Great bonding with fam while enjoying our bubble tea!“

“My husband and I went for my birthday lunch. The food was excellant and so were the drinks! We could not have asked for a more polite and accommodating waiter“

“Prospect Tavern is definitely the place to host your next event. Celebrated my grandsons one year birthday there. The food was endless so delicious and beautifully presented. Easily accommodated thirty people. The owner Carol could not do enough for us. The staff was amazing. When I am in town this is definitely my go to place.“

“I’ve been to this place since I was a little girl my parents always ordered from here and now I go w my bf when I can I love their California cheese burger w fries never disappoints me ❤️❤️❤️

They are sweet people and always smile and say hi to you I hate all the negativity in the comments but Im going to say this place is the best ever never leave please I’ll always eat from here 🥹“
