“They have an amazing system. Never gat you food wrong!!! Always make sure your happy and your doing okay!!! But they don't stop moving. With how busy it is here and the amazing service you'd almost think they are robots!!! The best spot to gram a beer and some grub in South Jersey!!!“

“This place has the best German food! My husband had the Schnitzel Platter, my friend had the Kielbasa Cheesesteak (on locally special made pretzel rolls), and I had the Kielbasa Platter, and all were mouth-wateringly amazing. The apple sauerkraut, cucumber vinegar salad, peppercorn sauce, all deliciousness! The Big Daddy Mozz is a huge breaded fried mozzarella block and is the best I've ever had. Their pretzel is perfectly fluffy and they come with cheese and they bring out mustards and sauces. Come for the food, stay for the drinks...they have a very nice drink menu. I tried the Caramel Apple Martini and it was sublime! Service was warm and welcoming. They make you feel like family. Clean place with a lot going on--they have poker on Sat/Mon and events throughout the year. During the spring/summer they have outdoor seating and yard games. Which is a plus! I heard "dive bar" in a previous comment, but that wouldn't be my take even though you do walk "down" into the bar area this place is family friendly, so I would say more of like schnitzel häus that happens to have a bar“

“As a vendor in the industry and working with Merighi's Savoy Inn, we are truly impressed! From the amazing food, to their gorgeous ceremony space and intimate setting, you will truly be impressed. The staff is equally impressive, making the entire experience truly unforgettable. If you're considering to have your wedding at Merighi's Savoy Inn, then you have found a wonderful venue to host your special day!“

“My sister and I went down to the super cool whiskey bar in the basement. It almost felt like a private club. Ambiance was great and an awesome selection of whiskey (also a full bar for those non-whisky drinkers). Food menu was limited but perfect for bar snacking. I absolutely loved their fried calamari (watch out for those spicy peppers) and we also shared the warm pretzel. Service was great! Staff was friendly and engaging. Looking forward to bringing our dad today to check out this cool spot! They had live music, a one man band, and for a Saturday night, I'd expect a tad better of a performer, but hey, music is music, lol. Oh! And it was pretty interesting that they have random games spread about. Lots of tables playing cards, jinga, etc. that made it more interesting too! All in all, I'd def check it out!!!!!“

“Ok, so I drove by this place so many times, I finally decided to stop in for breakfast.(Will be stopping in again for other meals, so updates will be made at some point.)It's a nice little old style diner. With honestly a big menu.First visit here, I got a porkroll and egg sandwich, as well as the chipped beef platter for breakfast. Overall the food was good. With the porkroll sandwich if anything, I would suggest maybe them toasting the inside of the roll, otherwise good basic sandwich. For the chipped beef platter,( I'm no expert on chipped beef) I thought it was good. If anything, maybe a tad thicker chipped beef. Thought it was good overall. Their home fries were decent as well.Staff was friendly and checked in often to see how things were and to refill my coffee. As stated above, I will definitely have to come back and try some of there other dishes for lunch and dinner. So far, I definitely say it's worth stopping in if your in the area.“

“We had our mom's surprise 70th birthday here! Service was great from scheduling until the day of the party! Food was good and you get a lot for the great price!!. Soup, garden salad, entree, and vanilla ice cream or sherbet for $16.95 but we added all kinds of drinks including smoothies for 19.95!! Rae was our waitress for 30 people and she was phenomenal!! We had the big room which was spacious, clean, and set up when we got there. We are very grateful that Larry's II offers a good, affordable party experience in Vineland for families to afford! Our mom was very surprised and was so happy!! Thank you!The only thing I would recommend is allowing an hour or so of set up time with the understanding that the workers will be cleaning and setting up.“

“We just moved into the area and figured we'd hit the local spots. Great atmosphere and history. We were pleasantly greeted at the door and service was quick and friendly. I got a steak, egg and cheese sandwich and my better half got the pork roll version. I liked that when I asked for hot sauce it came in a generous squirt bottle! We will definitely be back and explore other menue options.“

“Interesting place. Despite having a large dining area, it was empty and eerily quiet. They must focus on take out, since they seemed surprised that I wanted to dine in. The food arrived in a take out container with plastic utensils and they only had bottled drinks.The actual menu is a bit odd, but fortunately the food was really good. The staff was nice and the prices were fine. If they put just a little bit of effort into the dining experience this place could shine.“

“I like Texas Roadhouse but sometimes it can be a hit and miss. Also I was sad that they don't do pick up family meals like other Texas Roadhouses. Food was good but when you do take out it seems like they lack and forget special instructions and how you want your steak prepared. No 4 rolls for 3 meals is not okay lol & they serve small portions“

“The food was very good even though it took a while to come out, but that meant it was cooked with extra care. The wait staff was very kind and attentive. In terms of atmosphere, it is very small, but I think they keep it that way for the local crowd.“

“Me and my boyfriend drove an hour to visit today. I was really excited to try this place out. Our server was great and the atmosphere was lovely. On to more important things.. The food. My boyfriend enjoyed his Philly V steak. I had a little bite and agreed. Delicious!! I went with the California burger and wasn’t wowed. It was just okay. We also shared a cashew mac and cheese. That’s honestly what we came for. It was okay.. I think that if we come back i’d try something else. For those 3 items we spent $40.Vegetarian options: Vegan“

“i heard good things about this place before so we decided to stop in for a breakfast for dinner type scenario. when i looked online i missed the part that they stop serving it at a certain time, but fortunately our waiter was very nice and brought us a breakfast menu at 7pm anyway. i got the french toast, my fiancée got chocolate chip pancakes (which i also tried) and we shared some homefries. the pancakes were pretty good, my french toast was very good, and the homefries were fantastic. we dipped into the homefries before the picture but i figured better late than never. the restaurant itself is small but it's nice on the inside, looks clean. i checked out the bathroom, very small but also clean and updated. full recap: the bill was very reasonable the service was good the place was clean and we were both happy with our food. coming back soon excited to try more of the menu.“

“Have been in the area for quite a while and I went strait to Mary's Cafe. Marion always recognizes faces and instantly she says "haven't see you in a long time". We chatted at the counter while I enjoyed my cream chipped beef. Can't wait until the Jersey tomatoes are ripe. They make tv best burgers and the tomatoes always add that extra touch. We always enjoy going to downtown Hammonton and Mary's is always at the top of our list with that small town charm and the history of the original building that was preserved.“

“A great breakfast surprise thanks to other Yelp reviews! We never would have found this great little diner, but so glad we did! We were in town after a wedding last night and came to Magnolia. It's a small place with a clean and cute atmosphere and excellent friendly service. Both of our breakfasts were piping hot and our tea and coffee stayed refilled (Love that). There is definitely a crowd of regulars which is a great sign. I was totally torn between breakfast and lunch, but loved my choice! Hubby got the gyro omelet and the lamb meat was super flavorful and made me wish we were nearby to come back for a Gyro! If you are ever local, check it out!“

“Harley Dawn is a casual diner with a modern vibe. Polished cement floors, floor to ceiling windows, wooden table tops with metal legs. There's a patio with umbrella seating during warmer weather. It can occasionally be loud when a motorcycle goes by, but that's brief. It's very pleasant given that it sits on a busy road. It's surrounded by bushes and shrubs and makes it feel cozy. They serve breakfast all day, and have a traditional breakfast menu. Check out the Eggs Benedict options, and the local/state options. Be sure to ask what the soup of the day is if your server doesn't offer them. Today was crab bisque and carrot bisque. I had the carrot bisque- yum! One in our party had crab cakes- you can order them several ways-broiled, baked, fried. I didn't taste hers, but she orders them frequently at Harley Dawn so they must be good! They were Aesthetically appealing- served on a bed of lettuce, with choice of two sides. I had the bbq pork sandwich that was topped with cheese and onion crisps. It had just enough bbq sauce to give it a nice flavor. It was a tad salty! Instead of fries I had the mashed potatoes and brown gravy. It tasted off to me a bit. Another friend ordered the Taste of Tucson Salad. It was Layers of delicious flavor! Chicken seasoned nicely and dressing that was homemade. It had corn, beans, tomatoes, jalapeños, onions...it was large! ! Our waiter was VERY patient with us. He checked on us no less than 6-8 times, offering refills, dessert, bags for our leftover containers, clearing the table. We were visiting with an out of town friend and sat for 2.5 hours. It wasn't busy so we weren't camping in a spot for other guests. Still he never made us feel rushed!“

“April catered my baby shower today for about 40 guests and we can’t recommend her enough! Perfect style food for walking around/mingling. Everything is so cute but it actually tastes great too! Best of both worlds. Almost every guest asked for her card. Perfect caterer for any shower or party! “Crab cake martinis” were a big hit.“

“So, it's been forever since I've stopped here for a meal. Will say that I'm still kinda on the fence with them.Its in my hometown and honestly, this is only my second visit. It's a cute little place. Definitely an interesting spot with the menu written on the walls and such in the main dining room. Definitely like a southernly home feel to me. It has bar seating when you walk in, then to the right is the main dining space. (Small but it works) Also on nice weather day, there is picnic tables you can eat at outside.BIG NOTE TO REMEBER: THEY ARE CASH ONLY.I ended up getting the #6 Omelette meal. It has Italian sausage, peppers( your choice of sweet or hot) onions & provolone cheese. It also comes with homefries and toast. I ordered a side of bacon as well. Love me some bacon. Lol.The "Omelette" it's self was good.(Just not fully in Omelette shape) The home fries were ok, decent amout but just a little over done for me, not by much tho. Toast was perfect.( Intrestly it was served on a coffee filter, lol) The bacon tho was a bit of disappointment for me. It was way over cooked for my liking. The second you start to bite it, it crumbles apart. (I like mine with a little give, as in not flacid but with a little crunch). Overall it was a decent meal.Staff was super friendly and attentive. Will have to come back again at some point an try another dish or two. I'd say if your in the area, give it a try.“
