“Great place to enjoy a delicious pizza. I’m super picky when it comes to food. I must say that this place exceeded my expectations.FRIED CALAMARI was amazing and IMPOSSIBLE CHICKEN was super crunchy and tasty. Now the CHIMI CHICKEN PIZZA was the BEST pizza I ever had in a long time. Service let by JUNIOR made me feel welcomed… Great place ??“
“The service was amazing! Our server Jay went above and beyond what was expected. The onion soup was delicious. The perfect amount of cheese and the perfect saltiness. I ordered the 2 course plat. I had the soup and the beef tenderloin and fries. Delicious. The special dessert of the day was their bourbon bread pudding with butter pecan ice cream. All I can say is Yum!!“
“Highly recommend Ita Italian Kitchen in JC for a memorable dinner outing ( and for my gf and I, thats very hard to come by since we are very picky and foodies!). The dining experience at Ita Italian Kitchen is delightful, with standout dishes like beef bolognese, antipasto with olives and cheese, and clams that are sure to impress your taste buds! Don't miss out on trying their espresso martini(though got mine with house tequila), a real highlight of their drink menu. While some drinks may lean towards being too sweet, the overall experience at Ita Italian Kitchen is excellent and perfect for a special dinner outing! Service was immaculate.“
“Went here with my girlfriend last weekend and had a wonderful time. The food is always delicious and everyone is so friendly. Our server, Adil, really made our experience here outstanding! When we come back we hope he takes care of us again because we were so impressed at how well he did his job! Thank you for such a wonderful brunch.“
“Back in Spain is how I felt being here. The grilled octopus dish were the same as what we had in Spain, soft and chewy like marshmallows. I didn't think we had the right octopus species in the US but they have it. Iberico jamon were just a few slices but definitely imported. Most importantly, the owner appreciates your business, which for any packed place like this one, is precious.“
“The meal was perfectly cooked:FlatbreadSalmon (allergy sensitive)LambFilet & lobsterThe service was exceptional, attending to the allergies of my family and ensuring we were all able to enjoy our meals.Deserts were delicious, and left us wanting a little more, portions were small but perfect.Ambiance is little more upscale than average dining.Dietary restrictions: Chef went above and beyond to ensure allergies were catered to.“
“Had such a nice time here !! First time at American dream mall. Came on a Saturday early afternoon for a quick drink. Service was amazing . Wait staff was super friendly and accommodating , 10 out of 10 . I’ll be back again because the vibes are amazing !! The wine selection was great, I loved the sangria “
“Haven't been here in a while, but I organized a repast for my Dad. Very close to Holy Cross cemetery. Service and food were excellent. Had wheelchair ramp for my Mom, which was important.Parking: Large parking lotWheelchair accessibility: Outdoor ramp with portable indoor ramp.“
“My husband and I love this place. We go frequently and sit at the bar to eat and watch hockey. The food is always good and my husband enjoys the beer list, which is updated frequently. A special shout out to John and Brendan behind the bar who always make us feel welcome.“
“The start was quite bumpy. But first of all, the ambience. Everything is very nicely done, but you have the feeling of sitting in a large ballroom. A lot could be done better with appropriate interior design.Our waiter was very polite but still very inexperienced. Our order of wine was a bit overwhelming for the young gentleman, as was the question of a sommelier. By the way, this is a real weak point of the restaurant: there is no sommelier. There is also a relatively simple wine list that only differentiates according to grape variety. It becomes a bit difficult as a wine connoisseur if all you see in the blends is the name of the winery and the wine. Very weak, especially when you also have wines worth over $500 on the menu. Nobody could really help. So thanks to the manager we tried the open wines. But a sommelier would actually be mandatory in a restaurant like this.So it took over 30 minutes before we were able to order something. And to be honest, we thought about leaving without eating here.The food came out of the kitchen quickly. And it was worth staying here. The salad as well as the raviolo for starters were excellent. The two steaks afterwards were perfectly prepared and tasted very good. Perfectly balanced roasted flavors without overpowering the meat taste. The cooking level was perfect. The dessert was just as good as everything before it.Would I go again? To be honest, I'm torn about this. On the one hand, the food was excellent, but on the other hand, the service still needs to be worked on until it is at the level it should be. Plus the missing sommelier. I also like to drink expensive red wine with my steak, but that is simply not possible here because there is no one who can really give good advice. And if I'm lucky, I don't want to order a bottle of wine for $200 plus.“
“Stop by Thursday night for the first time after work. I was very surprised and impressed from the moment I arrived. Very upscale and elegant place with alot of attention to detail, with a very warm relaxed feeling and a very inviting cozy mood ambience.The service and food was phenomenal and Jorge, the bartender/manager was great, also enhanced my experience, he's very detailed may me and my friend feel very special.I felt like, i was actually in Dubai. If you're looking to escape the stress from the day and week and have great night. I highly recommend Little Dubai It's a five star winner ! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️The best kept secret in North Jersey N.Y. metropolitan area.“
“I just had the best experience at Q'tal! Our server was so attentive but also gave us space to talk and catch up. She was so kind and everything she recommended was delicious. I highly recommend the jackfruit croquettes and the sliders which I love that they have vegan options for someone like me. I'm not sure of the name it was a passionfruit cosmo type drink and I didn't even realize it came out with a dry ice bubble. 10/10 for presentation on everything and ambiance. They have a dining area which feels a little more formal ( the chairs were so comfy by the way) and then a bar area with high tops which I think would be great for a girls night. I already can't wait to go back!“
“My mom and I had an amazing time. Ms.Burley was very energetic, optimistic, brilliant and she can hold a good conversation. I highly recommend this class to anyone who is looking for a good wine tasting class in the Essex County area.I made reservations for my mom and I through Groupon (Being Cheap Lol“
“Food was GREAT and the service was absolutely stellar. Love the look of the place, great for date night or night out with friends. We had focaccia, calamari, Franny's house salad, chicken parm, chicken Marsala and flounder. All winners. Drinks outstanding. The olive oil cake was lovely but not like Maialino's which I love. I would definitely return, did not disappoint!“
“It's a small cozy place and we were seated in what would be sunroom or outdoor space upon arrival. It was heated for winter. Felt a tad bit hot at times when the heat bursted but I think server reduced it. For drinks we ordered lychee martini but it tasted more like lemon than lychee. For appetizer ordered spinach and artichoke dip which pita chips. It was decent in tasting but it was missing the cheese pull for me. For entree, tried the mushroom flatbread and chicken sandwich for which both were good and flavorful. I wish the appetizer came out before entires as everything came out at once. To wrap up the night we got the salted caramel espresso martini which was delicious! The service was great and we were check on frequently.“
“Love this spot. Happy Hour even on Sundays, fyi! My friends and I always sit at the bar. Great eats on the bar menu. And Walker is my favorite server. He shows impeccable attention to detail, is extremely pleasant and his timing is excellent. A true professional! I highly recommend this spot for business lunches or dinner, as well as family events.“
“I love this place. The service is amazing and the staff is friendly. I come for this sangria and stay for the conversation. Food is hardy and the prices are great. Ask for Mike the bartender.Kid-friendliness: They have chicken fingers, hamburgers mozzarell sticks and french fries for the kids.Wheelchair accessibility: Everything is on the first floor with spacious room to get through tables.“
“Food is excellent, service is excellent, the only possible criticism is it's loud af in there. If you're looking for a quiet dinner, this isn't the place but if you're ok with the noise I can't say enough good things about the quality of food or the top notch service.“
“Omg!! Five out of five for me!!! This was my first time visiting and I was completely blown away with the food. We started with the Tuna Tartare (delish) I had the GV Chicken (delish) my friend had the Parmesan Crusted Bass he said it was delicious and we ended with the delicious ? dessert Tiramisu. The atmosphere was a lil loud for my taste but it is a very nice cozy place….the server could have been a lil more inviting but we can’t have everything lol!!! I will definitely be back soon“
“Great environment. Good service. The inside is nice & they have a cute outdoor space in the back. They provide complimentary bread with tomato spread. The spread is very well flavored, with a tiny bit of a kick. I would guess it’s tomatoes, olive oil, fresh pepper, fresh garlic, & a touch of salt. The ham & cheese croquetas are delicious & creamy. The tortilla española is flavorful & comes with a little bit of greens, but I drizzled the tomato spread over it for a bit more flavor. The crema catalana was delicious. I only wish it came with more strawberries. 100% returning.Vegetarian options: They offer numerous vegetarian options.“
“My favorite cousins took me to Libretti's in Orange, NJ for my birthday. The ambiance was very nice. The restaurant is beautifully decorated. The wait staff was friendly and accommodating (mostly). We had lunch in the afternoon so it wasn't crowded but people started to arrive as we were eating our delicious food. We had appetizers such as calamari, soup and clams. For our entree I had shrimp scampi and my cousins had filet mignon and pork chops. The only issue was my cousin wanted spinach instead of the broccoli that came with the filet mignon and the chef flat out refused to substitute. The waiter said my cousin would have to pay extra for the spinach as opposed to substituting. That made no sense and it sounded ridiculous. My cousin was annoyed since she was paying $50 for her meal. I thought that was strange that the chef refused to accommodate the customer with such a small request. The restaurant has their own parking lot located across the street from the restaurant. The restaurant is located in the cut but its easy to find. Because of the situation with the chef i would probably not go back but I would definitely recommend for the experience. Enjoy bon apetit!!Parking: The restaurant has their own parking lot located across from the restaurant.Wheelchair accessibility: They have a ramp.“
“This place is like a cozy pub, not too crowded on weekdays. They have cocktails, but they're just okay. What's really good though, are the foods!We tried their salad, buffalo chicken wings, burrata with prosciutto, and truffle fries. The wings and fries were the best, super tasty!The staff there are really friendly and nice. Plus, it's super close to the Path train and just a quick walk to the boardwalk. Great for hanging out and munching on good food!“
“Quaint and FUN. From the moment we opened the doors, we felt we were at a friend's party. Service was friendly and most attentive . Sangria was yummy. Live music nite by Sugar and Spyce. We caught ourselves time traveling. Def a gem n worthy of return visits.“
“I came for brunch but ordered off of the dinner menu. I had the bluepoint oysters, the octopus, ribeye steak with spinach, and my friend had the steak salad off of the brunch menu. The place was okay. I did enjoy my lavender lemon drop martini. We had Tira misu and cheesecake for dessert. There was nothing extraordinary about the food. It was tasty, and I think it's a cute brunch maybe lunch spot, but there was nothing amazing that stood out.“
“Had Sunday brunch with a friend here. Did the Zeppoli Brunch which was a side of Zeppolis, followed by an app and an entree for $29 before tax and tip. I thought the food was delicious and a great value. Place has a good vibe and noise level is good such that you can carry conversation with your party. Would recommend for friends and dates.“
“We had a wonderful first visit at Spuntino's. The food was delicious - highly recommend the fresh made table side mozzarella! Thete is a wide variety to choose from and something for everyone. We were a bit disappointed with the chocolate chip zeppole because they were raw inside and had to be returned; however, the manager was wonderful and did not charge us for the order. There is an extensive wine list but also cocktails and beers. There were 6 of us and we felt the table was a bit small for tapas, wine flights etc. Overall the experience was a lot of fun and a great place to go with a group!“
