“Excellent food and outstanding staff. Our server was Jen and she couldn’t have been nicer. My nephew, Max Clayton, is performing in White Christmas at the Papermill. We were a group of 10 from NH looking for a place for dinner before the show. Max raved about the food at the Millburn Standard and recommended we go there. The staff was friendly, very accommodating to our large party (we did call for reservations, but they don’t take them) and the food was excellent (get the nachos!) They were just as nice when we came back after the play just to sit and have drinks. I feel like they went out of their way to accommodate us and we are all most appreciative. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Outstanding food, service, atmosphere! Definately a place to have a great night!“

“We are BEYOND ECSTATIC with our wedding cake and all other pastries and desserts provided by Calandra’s Bakery! No other bakery bakes your cake at 3:00AM the day of your wedding and it shows! Super fresh moist and SUPER DELICIOUS! Every guests commented about the spectacular presentation…simple yet elegant carrying our live orchid theme with LIFELIKE piped orchid petals cascading down each layer! What a joy to have such an unforgettable and memorable experience of knowing our family and friends will remember our wedding cake as much as we will! We had the choice of several bakeries but must end by telling this story…we had checked out a couple of bakeries but after a final wedding gown fitting we decided to visit Calandras. Unannounced we asked to see the person who could help us with our wedding cake. Calandra’s is an incredible “complex” and was extremely busy place but we were directed to Aisha Maliki. Aisha dropped everything presented us with an exquisite tray of every wedding cake option in bite size proportions all fresh and delicious. She gave us coffee and tea and gave us time to talk amongst ourselves in a relaxed atmosphere until our decision was unanimous! She then proceeded to take us through the endless design options available and helped us tweak every little detail until alas our vision for the PERFECT wedding cake had come to life! Mind you we did this unannounced but Aisha couldn’t have been more cordial personable professional and most of all friendly! We left SO elated to leave having one of the most important wedding checkboxes checked and feeling we just had welcomed a new family member into the fold! Based on our incredible experience with Aisha and Calandra’s your choice for YOUR wedding cake and pastries should be Calandra’s! You will definitely not be sorry!“

“Date night at the Rabbit Hole! Reservations were easy to make and our hostess was very kind and quick to seat us. Our server, John, was incredibly friendly, explained all the specials, and gave great recommendations. He had a wonderful sense of humor too! The vibes were awesome - loved the wonderland theming and the moody lighting. Great date spot! The food was definitely a highlight. We got the lobster mac (which was made with risotto) and the ricotta and sausage pizza. Would definitely recommend both. The cocktails were beautiful and creative. We will definitely be returning!“

“Amazing Restaurant! Good food, service and cocktails .. Sam the server was very informative about the restaurants daily events ( happy hour, brunch etc.) I will definitely return ..“

“We recently took my wife to celebrate her birthday here. We absolutely loved the environment, the staff, the food, the drinks, etc. They make my favorite Carbonara out of any other restaurant in this area. The owners and the GM are all wonderful people. I’d recommend it!!!“

“This place is a gem.
The best time to go is at around 3:00. The restaurant was virtually empty when we arrived and we were seated immediately.
As soon as we ordered our food, it was on our table within 7 minutes.
Our waiter was very kind!
I highly recommend the Rainbow roll and the Kinya Ramen bowl.
The serving sizes are large and more than enough for one person.
My boyfriend and I plan to return for the excellent food and upstanding service.

Gordon Ramsey would be silent at one bite of the delicious goodness on the Kinya menu. Incredibly tasty. -A Hell’s Kitchen Reference“

“What can I say, another amazing holiday at my house because evolution! After have the great meal from Thanksgiving catered we decided to do it again for Christmas Eve! Best decision ever! The food was absolutely delicious and was the perfect amount for my family of 10! It’s a pleasure dealing with Dina and all the staff ! (I’m sure everyone there thinks im a pest !) the accommodated all of my substitutions and were very open to me picking what I wanted. I live 45 minutes away and they delivered to us ! Again, so grateful! I cannot recommend this establishment enough. I wish I lived closer because I would be there so often. Thank you evolution for again helping me have a beautiful holiday with a 3 year old and a newborn. You all are rockstars !“

“A lot of thought and time went into designing this beautiful, spacious interior, including textured wall surfaces and designer lighting. Perfect for parties and couples alike, and kid froendly during the day with fancy mocktails. Take pride in hand crafted cocktails with freshly squeezed lime and yes they really look like the photo. Accommodating of allergies. Lots of flavor and great presentation“

“This place deserves more than a 5 star. This was my first time coming to this location. Out of all the years living in Clifton, NJ, I had no idea about this place and I will be back. I’m not much or a drinker, Bourbon and Whiskey at that. However, I was here celebrating my dear friend 43rd Birthday and I said “Why Not” and boy was I glad I did. I had the “Hibiscus Lemonade” and “Year Five 2.0”. The first drink was great, but that second one “Chef’s Kiss”. But what made my experience grand was the customer service. The team were so pleasant and fun to be around. Thank you Silk City for an amazing time.“

“We have been going to Felinas since 2019. Chef Joe, Frank, and the entire staff make us feel like family. We have many personal and professional occasions celebrated there and will continue to do so. Thank you, Felina Ridgewood“

“I have celiac and am dairy free and felt very safe dining here. Ordered a gluten free bolognese and it was DELICIOUS and the mocktails/cocktails were fantastic as well. Can’t wait to come here again!

Dietary restrictions: Amazing gluten and dairy free options. Staff was very accommodating!“

“Great service good food 👍🥝“

“Too bad I live out of state because this is my FAVORITE restaurant in NJ. Wonderful staff and food. Not as noisy as other places because of the decor/layout. The prices seem a little high but when you can't even finish your food - that's a good deal. The menu is phenomenal. If you can't find something to eat here then you are insane.“

“Everything was pretty much perfect except for that lobster malfadine. literally what was that? probably the worst thing I’ve ever tasted. Wow. Vanilla & Lobster? Maybe im missing something. Jesus Christ. I can’t even exaggerate how terrible it was. Apps were great and drinks were ok. Mind boggled by that pasta still“

“Went there on a Saturday evening for the tour and had an amazing experience! I was welcomed by Gil, the owner, who prepared me a delicious welcome drink, and right after we went for the tour, which was very nice and informative. The tasting was also very good, the spirits were amazing. I also learned that there is live music on certain days and I'm definitely going to return with friends. By the way, I couldn't leave the place without getting one bottle for myself“

“Great food very good service“

“The food and drinks are delicious.“

“Great restaurant good food and friendly staff.“

“I had a private event in the Parlor Room and it was fabulous. Food and drinks were spot on and the service was dynamite. There were 21 of us all together and everyone was well cared for by server Lily and the rest of the awesome staff. I really love the unique atmosphere of the place -warm, classy and comfortable all at once. No boring old chain restaurant vibes here. Everyone had a great time. I would definitely host future events here.“

“The ambiance and food ! Great service ! Had Wagyu burger AMAZING was truffle fries YUM My hubby had filet mignon Delicious tasty 😋 Thank you Jade for private tour cave winery and downstairs private event space 💕“

“food and drinks were delicious and fun atmosphere“

“food is decent
service a bit slow bc the bartender is busy at the bar so tables in dining room fall to a lower priority. makes sense though because they're not that busy.

it doesn't have the dive bar vibe it had before...“

“Great service, good food and lots of TVs. Need QuickDraw but not a deterrent at all. 💯 I’ll be back very soon“

“The reviews I read to this restaurant really fooled me. The food served here did not taste fresh. Don't get me started on their drinks, more like ice. If you love spending money on bad food and iced drinks then this is the place for you. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone“

“A wonderful high-class restaurant with a sophisticated ambiance. The food earns a solid 4-star rating for its taste, offering fair prices for the quality provided. Their crafted beer is exceptional, boasting a great taste that complements the dining experience perfectly.“

“This is my favorite spot!! The drinks are always great and the food is amazing! The freshest ingredients and the taste is literally unmatched! Linda is my favorite bartender she always remembers my drink and food order, always friendly and warm, and goes out of her way to make me my own olive oil sauce to dip the bread in!! Love it and highly recommend!!“

“The best naberhood bar that I've been to in many years“

“Margaritas are the best. Beef burritos are great. Chips and salsa top notch“

“Gran experiencia el Día de la Madre en D’Carbón de Haledon. Excelente servicio! Los gestos y atenciones de las meseras realmente hacen la diferencia en una cena especial. Jhoselyn y el resto del equipo del restaurante son expectaculares en un día tan ocupado como fue el día de la madre. Esos momentos especiales en los que te sientes bien atendido y cuidado hacen que la comida sea aún más deliciosa. Se que tendré muchas más experiencias increíbles en De Carbón y seguiré disfrutando de la comida peruana junto a tu familia y amigos gracias al gran servicio! Gracias Jhoselyn por tus atenciones!“

“Buena comida , buen ambiente, excelente atención, calidad“

“Fantastic food, good service. I highly recommend this place.“

“Can I just say WOW!!!! Been waiting to come here for quite some time, and it far surpassed every expectation I had!! Staff was lovely! Creative, DELICIOUS appetizers... We tried several, and seriously each one was SOOO GOOD!!! I'm a huge fan of Detroit style pizza, and it was cooked to perfection! Dessert was absolutely phenomenal as well! One of the best meals I've had in some time, from start to finish! They even had live music upstairs, which was such a nice surprise! Can't wait for our next trip back!!! Thank you for a wonderful evening!“

“Great Atmosphere and Menu, But Room for Improvement

I recently discovered The Table and was really impressed by the overall experience. The atmosphere is definitely five stars—beautifully designed and very welcoming. The menu is also impeccable, with a great variety of options at reasonable prices.

I tried the salmon eggs Benedict, which was good, but not quite spectacular. On the other hand, the truffle mac & cheese was amazing—definitely the highlight of the meal. My girlfriend had the apple pie French toast, which was a bit on the sweet side for our taste, but still enjoyable. We both agreed that we’ll definitely be coming back to try more dishes from the menu, as there are so many tempting options.

The reason for the four stars instead of five comes down to the service. When we were seated, our server admitted that there were better tables available but didn’t seat us there, even though the booth next to us was empty. Shortly after, two other people came in and were seated at that very booth. It was a bit frustrating, especially after she mentioned we could have had a better seat, but didn’t do anything about it.

That being said, I’ll still be coming back because the atmosphere, menu, and prices are really solid. Plus, the location is super convenient for me, and the outdoor seating is a great option. I haven’t checked out their bar yet, but that’s definitely on my list for next time.

Overall, it’s a great spot with lots of potential, and I’m looking forward to seeing how they continue to improve. I’ll be following up soon!

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“First time for me and my boyfriend, went to celebrate his birthday and no regrets at all. One of the best meals, everything was perfect and tasty, Maiara our server was very sweet and helpful. Definitely going back.“

“Want to have a good food, drinks and vibes with great service. Well look no further, this is the spot right here. One of my favorite go to spot. If you haven't been here yet, you're missing out. Check them out.“

“Went there 2 weeks ago with a couple of friends. Food was delicious. The staff were very nice. They had a verity of mixed drinks and beer. I highly recommend trying this place out.“

“amazing restaurant wrong neighborhood.“

“Just had the best experience with ladyfingers! I had a birthday party for my daughter and they provided a two tier cake and a coffee bar. Lauren was very responsive from start to finish. I was able to pick the flavors and filings for each tier off their long list of options. I didn’t have much time to look for a cake design so just sent over a photo of a cake that I quickly googled. They were able to create it, and even better, they added a customized cake topper with my daughter’s name. They also delivered it to the venue which was very important to me since I didn’t want to deal with picking up a big cake from a bakery and making sure it didn’t get ruined during an already busy day. At the party they provided us with a “coffee bar” serving up a variety of flavored hot and iced coffee & chai. The guests loved this! Many drove from far so a coffee option was exactly what the needed upon arrival. The onsite team was great, arrived early to setup, and went above and beyond by lending me a cake stand and having ice delivered for us when we were unable to get any because it happened to be sold out everywhere near by. Overall great experience and would highly recommend them!“

“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.“

“Loved it! Guacamole with fried plantains was delicious. I had the steak with garlic shrimp, very good. My friends enjoyed their dishes too. Drinks were also great- I had the Cucumber Margarita with Don Julio & it was very refreshing on a hot summer day. Trendy atmosphere and cool murals. Service was wonderful- friendly, attentive & knowledgeable. Will definitely be back.“
