“#1 restaurant to take the kids! We always feel welcome and well taken care of. This time was special because we had Daniella as our server. She greeted us with a warm welcome that was genuine, knew how to expedite the meal so the kids were taken care of but we didn’t feel rushed. Thank you!“

“Food was delicious, their margaritas were yum! Just takes a while to get serviced. Went on a weekday after work, parking was a hassle since they don’t have a parking lot! Overall worth trying their nachos are delicious, food is tasty they just need to work on their service speed. Very nice place for families and friends with outdoor and indoor options.“

“Great time with my family for lunch, great food and great atmosphere but our waitress Abby gets the 5 Stars for service (Awesome Abby 🤩)“

“I was recently in New Jersey for a concert and staying at a hotel for a few nights. My friend and I were looking for a quick bite to eat nearby. We decided to go to this place on a whim and it turned out to be one of the best decisions ever. The atmosphere was incredible. Everyone in there was so cool and the bartender was fantastic and very helpful. She recommended the Jack Daniels burger so we both went with it. When I tell you we both dreamed about this burger for our entire trip. We ended up going back to this place two more times. It was such a great local place with great people. I can’t recommend it enough. If you’re ever in the area go there and get the Jack Daniels burger. Talk to the locals. Have a pint and enjoy the vibes. 5/5. 10/10. Incredible.“

From the friendly greeting as soon as we sat down, to bringing our food out quickly and even accommodating my daughter by having a high chair brought to her. The food quality is excellent, and the restaurant is kept in very clean condition. The service and dining experience was a proper send off before our trip back home to Australia. Thanks Paul!“

“We look forward to our Friday nights .Going there for years. Always have a great time. Friendly place. Great food. Love the staff. 100% recommendation.“

“Exceptional customer service and the entrees were superb. Our servers were both excellent, Andres and Vivian and their hunky manager, whose name we did not catch. The drinks were very well made, with nice presentation. My wife, Patricia, had a Coconut Mojito and I had two Lemon Martinis (well blended) refreshing and tasty. Order the Calamari as an appetizer. Our entrees were the salmon and the cheese steak. Everything was prepared with a Columbian flare! Ole! You and a culinary delight.“

“it was perfect my fiance took me the food was great the atmosphere was perfect the staff was great“

“Homemade pasta and wood fired pizza.“

“Tankys is the spot! These people in the comments below complaining about it being unsafe just have nothing better to do. Other bars right down the block plays music just as loud and stays open just as late. Besides the one incident last year, there aren’t any brawls or fights that happen there. Most ppl that go there are regulars and know each other. To the ppl complaint about it being loud in open late, you have the power to move to another place you knew where you were moving to when you moved there tankys has been there my whole lifeThe drinks are strong and cheap, the vibe is chill, older crowd, when they have a DJ the music is good, u can bring food in, and they have a lil pool table and a parking lot. I been going to tankys for year and never had a bad experience. Occasionally the bartenders be too busy to get to me and I’ll get tired of waiting and leave but that’s all rare.“

“New Providence Bar and Kitchen was the perfect place for my wife and I to celebrate our anniversary. We came for lunch and immediately the staff made us feel very welcome. The menu, from the drinks to the entrees, put a fun spin on familiar dishes—just enough to be unique without deviating too much from traditional favorites. The calamari appetizer with chili peppers and capers was the best I’ve ever had— flavors were amazing. The Parmesan-crusted salmon was also tasty and my wife loved her meal too. A wonderful experience!“

“The place it’s very nice .. for the whole family..“

“Es la mejor ambiente de esta área se lo recomiendo“

“Had a great dinner! Always great service too!“

“The most disfispectful place on 3222022 stop by for a drink won't get served asked for a soda said no. This was not a place you wanna be out of state. This after I'm getting home how sad this is a place that did not understand what people are going through stay away. Sad to have places like this in jersey.“

“buenísimo full diversion“

“Stumbled upon this welcoming pub after a long working day during UN Week in NYC. As my hotel was near Carteret was able to hop off the NYC bus and stroll right in. Trivia night was on and that was a welcome diversion - as was the prompt and friendly service and the cold beer! BTW, $5 Happy Hour is Monday-Saturday 5-8pm. I’m a wing snob so didn’t give them a high ranking but definitely in the zone of tasty and comfort food! Highly recommended!!!“

“Walked in this weekend for the first time and the female bartender was super friendly and helpful! We just wanted to stop in for a quick app and a beer. We ordered the fries and 2 rounds of beers and the check was super reasonable. We will definitely be back when it is nicer out to sit outside. They have a variety of things on the menu, a pool table, shuffleboard table and electronic darts.“

“It was first being back in Jersey in 13 years. Straight from my plane at midnight we went. I had so much fun the music, food with my family and friends. Coming back to party at People's Choice Lounge in the futue.“

“Great food nice atmosphere.“

“For a hotel, it certainly was refreshing. Traveling a lot you don't always get the best food selection.

With that said, the crispy Brussels sprouts, OH-EM-GEE. Hear me out. They were the best thing I think I've eaten...in well, ever. It wasn't just the whole Brussels sprout itself, it was mostly the outer skins that was coated in seasonings, oil, and crispy. They were SO GOOD!

I definitely recommend the French Onion soup as well, we had that twice. 😋“

“My new favorite bar! Great food, awesome selection of beers, wine and spirits, and the staff is super cool. I love that there’s themed event nights, like karaoke and trivia. Cute patio area for enjoying the weather, plenty of seating and 10 giant screens for catching all the games. It feels very welcoming and inclusive here. The truffle fries, short rib sliders and the clam linguini are amazing dishes! I also added shrimp to my pasta and it did not disappoint.“

“Great place to eat, and to watch the sporting games!“

“Buss good chune. If you from Brooklyn you know 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💪🏽“

“It was a good experience, drinks were good, but had a wait a lil to long but great service regardless. The women were amazing. They were expecting some money expecting to tip so its ehh. Do what you want with your money. i had 2 dances, lil expensive for how short the dance is but pretty good. Only complaint i would say is dances are a lil expensive and thats it, def would go again thou.“

“Stopped be for a preflight bite and a mimosa. Both breakfasts were delicious. Coffee was great. Prosecco is n top. Rosemary was behind the bar, so friendly.“

“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.“

“Nagpuri Sahuji in Iselin, NJ, is a gem, renowned for its masterful saffron-infused Old Fashioned, an exquisite rarity. Their Puran Poli is exceptional, boasting a homemade taste with a generous filling and a thin, non-greasy cover. Not only is it authentically Sahuji, but it's also a haven for delicious food. Owners Neeraj and Swapna add a personal touch with their warm, down-to-earth hospitality. The ambiance and service are nothing short of five-star. A must-visit for an unforgettable dining experience“

“Great time so wonderful 🥂“

“My wife and I have been patrons and huge fans of Chez Catherine for nearly 30 years. Last Friday, we happily celebrated our 39th anniversary there with another very fine lunch. It's always a pleasure to be greeted like old friends by owner Stephane Bocket and seated at what we think is the best table in the tastefully decorated, elegant restaurant. We both chose the prix fixe menu. For starters, my wife had the always terrific moules and I a lovely mixed salad. We both chose beef bourguignons for our main course and asked Stephane to suggest wine from the by-the-glass list. His selections of a chablis for my wife and pinot noir for me worked perfectly with the outstanding bourguignons. We finished by sharing a delicious Baba au Rhum, prepared by Stephane at tableside. Dining at Chez Catherine is always a special event to us. Everything about it is first class. If you are unfamiliar with Chez Catherine, it has been one of New Jersey's Top 5 restaurants for nearly 40 years. We recommend it highly and urge lovers of fine dining to not wait but reserve a table NOW. We're sure you'll find it to be as special as we do.“

“Been a long time since I had a beer with the Dillon boys and my Valley friends!“

“Nice environment,,I danced blisters on my feet ? the music was flowing just right me and my daughter had a ball.Im originally from Ms,so if you are visiting Newark New Jersey,I say you "MUST" stop by and wine the hips..♥️♥️♥️?✨“

“Nothing for high demands. But somehow an iconic place. Sometimes the tone is a little rougher than what we know in Germany. But people know each other here and you feel comfortable. I don't want to eat here. So don't expect too much and enjoy your stayI'm happy if you like my review ?“

“This was my first time at this local spot and I must say it was really cool. Down to earth crowd just all out to have a good time it was a cool vibe a lot of smiling faces .. the chicken wings were off the hook the drinks were good . It is the dive joint you want to check out for sure. They also sell take out. After a hard week at work you can go to this spot and chill among some very Down to earth folks . I don't need a fancy place to go, I need a good time place ! And I think I have found it . The hell with boogie !!! Let's all go to Mike's“
