“We always have a nice experience at The Shannon Rose, but last night was exceptional, principally because of the server, Marienella. She was amazing. So nice, patient (my wife had many questions and sent her specialty drink back once for modification), sociable and knowledgeable. Marienella made our entire time there that much more special!“

“I live in Maryland, and was up in Jersey visiting family. My girlfriend, cousin and I all had dinner on 3/23. Sam provided excellent service, and drinks recommendations. In addition, we had an 8:30 reservation, yet never felt rushed. Thanks again to Sam.Cocktails we had were the Smooth operator, steel magnolia, and the southwest cider. All 3 were amazing. Kudos to the barteam as well.We had the calamari and burrata as appetizers, both fantastic.Next time we find ourselves in Jersey, we will be back 100%.“

“My brother and my nephew love going to this pool hall, however every time we go they stop it playing only rap and bad rabbit music, before there was all kinds of music where there was a good atmosphere, but lately the music leaves a lot to be desired . But in the end you want to go play pool and have a good time with your friends and that's what we do. They serve all kinds of drinks and snacks and sometimes there are also very good views. Despite everything, I recommend this place.“

“I love Anthony’s and would normally give this 5 stars but this location’s garlic rolls are nowhere near as good as other locations. The garlic rolls here are too hard/stiff. I’ve ordered them at least 10+ times always hoping they will come out mushy and good like other locations but they never do. I really hope one day they change this. The rolls need to be mushy and soaked in oil and more garlicky like other locations. The insides of the rolls are always hard and still dry when opened and it’s unsatisfying. The inside of the rolls needs to already be wet like other locations have.“

“Went to this location in Clifton for the 2nd time and it was just as good as the first time my bff brought me here. The wings are just one of the best in Jersey. I love that they have so many sauce options and even dry rub. My mouth is watering again just thinking about it lol and I'm not even hungry right now. The prices are decent and the other food is great, too. We had the Poutine ... Fries with gravy and cheese and wow I wanted to lick that plate clean! Drinks are great and they are not cheap with the pour.Good vibes and awesome service. We will certainly be back again.Just a little FYI, this place is small and gets really crowded and loud. So come hungry, but be very patient because they are worth it all. Also they don't have any private parking, street parking only, but theres plenty of it.“

“Amazing cheeseburger deluxe! There was a lot of fresh lettuce on it, big juicy tomatoes, several onions, and Delicious cheddar cheese. Great burger!! Would definitely recommend this restaurant and the cheeseburger deluxe! The fries were sooo good, crispy and really hot. The coleslaw and pickle were also very yummy too. 10/10 meal, I enjoyed and devoured every bite. Clean restaurant, friendly and speedy staff. Definitely a classic in Clifton, been coming here a long time and looking forward to many more years here at The Corral.“

“Just finished eating my food and over all I am satisfied. I am very picky when it comes to pizza and I don't eat it often it's a treat for me so let me just put that out there. I have been spoiled by one the best pizza restaurants that ever existed (Bruno's Pizza in Elizabeth NJ) they were the best compared to experiencing New York type Pizza which I love. Any who with that said I will say this. Was this pizza great? No! Unfortunately, it was not. I found the tomatoe sauce to be a little on the salty side but maybe it was the added pepperoni But let me tell you why I will order again! The food was good LOL. Although I was a bit bummed that they forgot to add olives and green peppers to my chef salad, and the fact that I found this place to be a tad bit expensive (forgive me I haven't ordered take out in a while and inflation is real) the reason why I will order again is because the men who work here and answer the phone and deliver the food are the most professional and humble people I have dealt with in a very long time. This is the type of old school service that use to exist. Great job on customer service!!! I look forward to being a loyal customer. Just make sure you give me my sweet peppers and olives next time! HAHAHA!“

“it was my first time at Red Robin. I got an Oreo milkshake and a crispy chicken sandwich. My Oreo milkshake didn’t taste like Oreos but it wasn’t bad. The vanilla milkshake was the best. My chicken sandwich was a bit greasy and the pickles had a weird taste to it. The fries didn’t have much salt either. Shout out to our server Carlos, nice kid. Overall It wasn’t terrible.“
