“Had a few hours to kill before my flight at EWR. Looked up restaurants near the airport, found this and I’m so glad I did. Friendly staff, delicious Beyond Burger wrap w sweet potato tots, and a deeeeelish freshly made strawberry lemonade. Highly recommend! I’m keeping this place in my fav saves. If I’m ever back in Newark NJ I’m def stopping back. That drink was so perfect for the hot day!“

“Arrived on path and searched “food near me” saw the pictures of the wings and immediately decided to go here and it lived up to the rating. Everything was delicious, the wings were perfectly crunchy but still very juicy. The sauces were great with garlic parm being my favorite. The chimichurri burger was excellent and the beer batter rings were delicious. Ice cold beer would’ve took everything over the top but a jarrito was a great second choice. Will definitely come back whenever I’m in the area.“

“Amazing food, service, and atmosphere. 5/5“

“Been here 2xs, food, service and atmosphere are excellent. Seasonal cocktails. A stranger , i will call Joy, bought us a drink. Thank you!“

“Delicious food. Great service by Sydney! It started with amazing honey bread at the table. Flatbreads yum, especially the one with fig topping. Muscles, tuna tartare, noodle flush, brussel sprouts, calamari salad, and more! All yum! Would absolutely go there again. We had 8-10 people and the service was excellent.“

“Crystal was an amazing server. Was efficient and engaging. I enjoy having servers like Crystal because they create a great dinning experience.“

“I hosted my Ladies Who Lead brunch at The St. Clair yesterday, and I could not be more impressed. From the moment we arrived, the hostess and staff made us feel welcomed and taken care of. A special thank-you to Leo, our waiter, who delivered exceptional service the entire time — attentive, warm, and on point with every detail.

And the food… absolutely delicious.
The French toast, the autumn hash, the oatmeal pancakes, and that biscuit — the biscuit deserves its own shout-out — everything was outstanding. Every plate was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared.

The aesthetics and ambiance of the restaurant were just perfect for our event: warm, stylish, and inviting. It created the ideal backdrop for a memorable afternoon with an incredible group of women.

I highly recommend The St. Clair for brunch, events, or anytime you want a great meal paired with amazing service. I’ll definitely be returning.“

“Calos Restaurant never disappoints! My absolute favorite is the linguine garlic with chicken and broccoli (yes, a custom order and they always get it perfect 🙌). The calamari is hands down the best, and they even offer a gluten-free option! And let’s talk about the drinks… Omg amazing. The mango lemonade and mango tea are my go-to favorites. 🥭✨ The arugula salad is to die for, and if you’re looking for a weekend treat, their brunch menu is pretty great too! Fresh, flavorful, and always made with love. A must-visit spot in North Arlington!“

“New Terry’s Cozy Corner offers a delightful, homey dining experience that truly lives up to its name. The food is simple yet delicious, with standout breakfast options like their famous Taylor ham, egg, and cheese on a roll, perfectly cooked omelets, and fluffy pancakes. The home fries are a crowd favorite, crispy and well-seasoned. If you're a fan of hearty, classic breakfast fare, this is the place to be. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, thanks to its family-owned operation, where the staff is known for being friendly and attentive. The diner serves fresh coffee that pairs wonderfully with any meal, making it a perfect spot for a cozy morning start. With affordable prices, generous portions, and consistently tasty food, it's no wonder locals come back regularly. Whether you're grabbing a quick bite or sitting down to enjoy a relaxed breakfast, New Terry’s Cozy Corner is a must-visit for anyone looking for a comforting and satisfying meal“

“Great spot for drinks and a drink 🥃 what a great time and place, we well be coming back“

“Hands down the best hole-in-the-wall restaurant I’ve ever been to! You walk into what feels like a cozy dive bar, but when you ask to sit in the dining room, they take you through the kitchen to the back—and wow, it’s like stepping into a hidden gem packed with memorabilia everywhere you look. I didn’t even know where to start taking it all in!

The owner personally went around to every table, greeting everyone and chatting with us about the history of the place—which alone deserves 10 stars. Every single dish we tried was absolutely fantastic. The baked clams were massive, and the garlic clams in that buttery garlic sauce? I could honestly drink it with a spoon. Then came the steaks—perfectly cooked, melt-in-your-mouth delicious.

To top it all off, the chef came out to greet everyone too and asked how everything was. It’s such a rare touch that made us feel like family, like we’d been regulars for years. And for the kids—there’s even a fun little scavenger hunt, which is such a cute idea!

If I could give Charlie Bloods 20 stars, I would. This place is full of heart, history, and seriously good food. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Seasonal dishes fresh and beautifully presented! Friendly and helpful team with excellent dish recommendations :)“

“Food is very good and staff very attentive though menu limited. It's too loud! Music is fine but not when you can't carry on a conversation or hear the servers. I don't understand why anyone thinks that's a good thing.“

It was such a great day and you went out of your way to make sure every detail was taken care of before we walked in. Glen Rock is where our story started and it always feels like home at the Glen Rock Inn. I cannot recommend the GR Inn enough for your next party!“

“Amazing food, shakes, and people! I was in town for business and went both nights I was there - Rafael remembered I was going to come back the second night and went out of his way for me! And the Loaded Fries are unbelievably yummy!“

“Beautiful place for a date night. Delicious food but limited pescatarian options (yes, it's a steakhouse) due to some fish dishes having meat. Speakeasy area is lovely. Great for an after dinner drink or just have dinner at the speakeasy. Great night!“

“High Life Skii Club held a 60th anniversary party on Nov 1 with 99 members attending. With an assorted buffet menu and a live band, our members had a memorable evening in the private room of Tavern 73. The cash bar was very busy, and people raved about the food as they left this 4-hour event. Special thanks to Kaya and Gail for the excellent job they did to help to organize and execute this event. They were Best! Thank you, Tavern 73. High Life will not forget you!“

“Love the place. Just had a few beers but great and friendly staff“

“Great food and a family driven establishment...“

“A big, delicious mess. That is what I expect when I order BBQ style items off a menu and that's what I received! I stopped by for lunch and ordered the BBQ Beef Brisket sandwich. It was much larger than I expected and I did my best to finish it but did not fully succeed. The meat was overflowing and the sauce got everywhere.

The sides were decent. I loved the slaw but the fries could have used a little salt.

I am in town for a few more days and will definitely be back to try the ribs and some happy hour specials.“

“This is the second time we’ve had Samar as our server, and he’s just wonderful! He’s so attentive, friendly, and always has a big smile on his face. We came in for the Triple Chocolate Meltdown (which is always a favorite!), but having Samar take care of us made it even better. The service here is always great. Our food comes out quickly, our orders are always right, and even the manager stopped by to check on us. This place really has that cozy, hometown restaurant vibe that makes you want to come back again and again!“

“Dinner at Sage is always amazing. Owner Rob and waiter Darren will make your experience here a great one. Try the Tuscan ragu, Chicken Florentine.“

“Terrific and nostalgic fare. Got Turkey club for my meal with their delicious French fries. The sandwich was good enough to conquer my hunger and I only ate half. Took home the leftovers. My husband had the classic burger with French fries and it was huge and cooked to perfection. He said it was juicy and full of flavor with all the toppings. We both liked that the French fries came in a metal cup container because it kept the temperature longer which allowed us to eat them warm. I chose the green tea iced tea and thought it was perfectly not too sweet. Hubby got plain iced tea and it was unsweetened and terrific too. Prices are comparable to the area with tip just under $60.“

“Amazing stuffed meatballs!“

“Get a swimming, pool and poolside service lol 💦🍽️🍋“

Tricia, Crystal, and Jackie are ALWAYS hospitable and respectful every time I dine in with Friendly’s!

“I eat their tasty hamburgers all the time. Friendly people. Very clean. Close to where I live. Very convenient location for me.“

“Overall a fun night, the entertainment and the food were good. The food was better than expected.

The only downside were the alcohol prices. $27 for a double jack and coke which included a souvenir glass, which you have to buy and the refill was $19.

We went with a group of 11 for my daughter birthday. Be prepared to pay a $6 per person mandatory gratuity if you party is 10 or more. people.“

“This is the best Applebees around! The wait staff are always very attentive and friendly. We love the food here. We will always be coming back to this Applebees. Thank you so much. Steven, the manager was so very helpful and Emily our waitress was truly something special!“

Maurice and the team always looked after us and went above and beyond in multiple instances.

Is an absolutely up and coming community with great promise ahead.

Thank you again for everything.“

“Highly recommend Gus’ Last Word. This neighborhood establishment is cozy and chic at the same time. It is a perfect balance of retro and modern vibes. I was comforted by yummy chicken pot pie and unique cocktails. It has a lovely bar, with lounge areas, dining section and outdoor space. Shout out to the chefs, Christian the bartender and delightful Erin who provided great welcome, informed explanations of beverages and food, and great service. I will be back.“
