Okay it was my first time. I was going to give them 2 stars but then the lady at the register redeemed herself. She may have been overwhelmed by the amount of orders. I didn't feel welcome, I waited 6 minutes before I could even order. I told her why I was there because my son has a game and he's hungry and I wouldn't wait 15 to 20 minutes for it. She asked the cook and he did my order. I do appreciate my son getting his food. Thank you

Very relaxed and casual restaurant with excellent food and service. The prices are extremely reasonable. This place is a true hidden gem in Clifton. The corned beef hash is worth the trip for breakfast.

Overall experience was good! I went when they updated their menu & was a little shock regarding the fountain soda $4 , but I asked some questions & got a satisfied answer. Next time, I'll get a bottle soda for $3.

There’s a special establishment where it always feels like summer even when there’s a forecast of the returned polar vortex winds.

Located on Van Houten in Clifton, we were greeted upon entering the Love of Grub by the staff at this bright and colorful Key West-esque vibe, very relaxed and laid back as first-timers. With the music of Bertie Higgins “Key Largo” playing in the background, my partner and I got a table immediately. The interior featured a cozy, vintage charm with its rustic wooden furniture and an abundance of natural light streaming through the large front windows.

Their menu serves breakfast, brunch, and lunch with vegetarian, keto-friendly, and gluten-free choices available upon request. We decided on the cheesesteak with a side of sweet potato fries and the chicken pesto wrap with a small garden salad.

After trying multiple cheesesteaks in Jersey and NYC, this restaurant came out a winner with the right balance of mushrooms, onions, and peppers with real American cheese, not from out of a can. The chicken pesto wrap was equally delicious with the fresh homemade pesto grown from the owner’s garden. The food was exceptional; one could tell everything was made from scratch, like you were in your family's kitchen getting food made with love.

We were able to exchange words with the owner/chef, Tracey. She definitely puts her heart and soul into every aspect of her business and is dedicated to providing customers with the tastiest, freshest food possible. She’s a remarkable woman who gives back to the community by cooking for Clifton's warming center for people experiencing homelessness.

From the moment we walked through the door, the staff’s friendliness and welcoming smiles set the tone for a memorable meal. They were attentive and knowledgeable and made us feel right at home, especially our server, Galvan. The price was comparable to the area.

This is one of those places where, if one were to ask the locals where they recommend eating, this would be on their list, which we can recommend.
