“I walked in there because I did not want to subject myself to ShopRite fish market anymore, and I need to eat more healthy. The owner spent about 30 minutes, showing me the ropes, even taught me how to shuck and oyster correctly. The prices are on par with any Reputable, fresh seafood market couldn’t believe the freshness. Recommend if you are a seafood person.“

“I have lived nearby for almost a year and have been trying other crab boil restaurants because I didn’t want to drive 20 min. I finally gave The Twisted Crab a try and let me just say…I’ve been wasting my money. Their sauces are ELITE. Please give them a try you won’t regret it. I’ve finally found my go to spot for a quality crab boil bag. ?“
“Definitely the best Chinese food around! Everything is fresh, anything made with shrimp is excellent. Super reasonable prices too, especially the lunch specials. Takeout only but they deliver for only $2, no doordash fees! Don't hesitate to try it, you'll definitely be back.Vegetarian options: Plenty to choose from“
“Great seafood, cooked to perfection. We came here with local friends on a cold, wet evening and were the only diners, which made for a strange atmosphere. I'm sure it would be even better with more people. The service was good and the portions are generous. The stuffed scallops with risotto were delicious! We didn't look at the dessert menu as we had eaten enough, 3 shared appetisers between 4 and an entree each.“
“BJ Fish Soup in Edison, NJ, is an absolute feast for the taste buds! From the moment I stepped into the restaurant, the warm environment and friendly service made me feel incredibly welcomed. The decor is elegant, creating a warm and comfortable dining atmosphere, perfect for family gatherings or catching up with friends.The highlight, of course, is their signature Sour and Spicy Fish. The fish is fresh, tender, and seems to be carefully selected, pairing perfectly with the pickled vegetables. The balance between the freshness of the fish and the tangy crispness of the pickled vegetables is just right, complementing each other beautifully. The broth is rich but not greasy, with a moderate level of spiciness that even those who aren't keen on spicy food can enjoy. Additionally, the restaurant offers a variety of spice levels to satisfy different taste preferences.The portions in Edison, NJ, are generous, offering great value for money. The thoughtful service and delicious dishes have won me over time and again, leaving a lasting impression and a strong desire to return. If you're a fan of high-quality BJ Fish Soup, Edison, NJ, is definitely a place you don't want to miss.“
“We arrived early and were able to be seated. I made reservations for their new room, the “Cove” advertised as more intimate. Thinking quiet, perfect for date night. There were 2 large tables of 8 or more. Tables close together so noise level was at a high. Food was good. Lobster bisque, prawns, sea bass, pappardelle.“
“We had a wonderful time at Hot Space. The food was fresh, flavorful, and the spice level was perfect. This is our first time here, and we will definitely be back. Our server, Fiona was great. She was very knowledgeable and extremely attentive. Great place!“
“We had an absolutely amazing dinner on Sunday! All of our food was delicious as always, brought to our table piping hot and seasoned to perfection. We’ve been there before but what, (or who), made everything extra special this time was our server, Donya. She was very attentive to our needs and made great recommendations on both food and drinks. Thank you Donya, we’ll be back!!“
“This place serves the best hotpot I have every eaten. The chicken flavor in their popular pot has grrat taste. Service is excellent, the servers comes to you fast and food is served quickly too! They have been upgrading their restaurant by adding many more foods and even vending machines.“
“Nai Brother is definitely a hidden treasury. After several days authentic Chinese food hunting in Princeton, I visited Nai Brother Edison today. The pickled fish soup with snakehead fish fillet is absolutely the best!!! And the add-on veggies are super fresh and tasty.Highly recommend this place!!❤️“
“The food was good, and the service was prompt, hence the 5 star rating. You guys are the best and my favorite place to dine with family and friends. Thank You!!!Dietary restrictions: If you tell the hostess about your dietary restrictions they give you options which is goodParking: Lots of parking“
“Current Review -Was in mood for Kabobs in this cold weather and stopped at this place late evening. Ordered Lamb Chops, Lamb Shank Pulao and Chicken Kofta Kabobs.Didn’t disappoint me. Amazing taste, flavorful and had authentic reflections of Mediterranean cuisine. Their Lamb items are the best among the list.Their complementary Bread and Salads with different sauces is noteworthy.My recommendation is Lamb Chops and Lamb Shank Pulao. Shank was so well cooked that the meat was falling off from the bone and literally melting in the mouth.It’s an open casual dining place. Plate portion is good, competitive price for excellent taste and food quality. Customer service was good this time and could be because of less traffic.A must visit is recommended if you crave for Mediterranean food. I will visit again.Review from 2 years ago -We family and friends visit for dinner and tried Chicken Chapli, Lamb Chop, Chicken Lentil Soup and Chicken Gyro. Undoubtedly, the Lentil Soup and Lamb Chop were best from the list. Customer service is not good for family dine-in.“
“Delicious food my family goes here for holidays or birthdays because the food is so delicious, it's bit upscale and byob. My absolute favorite is the rack of lamb with the mint honey sauce. The seafood risotto and grouper with artichoke hearts are also favorites. My son is a very picky eater but swears they have the best penne vodka he's ever had.“
“Hisham, the host, was absolutely wonderful and accommodating. We sat in the bar area and our server who was also bartending was lovely. I took my niece out for a big girl day and fancy lunch. The server asked her questions directly and treated her like a guest not a child, which she loved. It was the best burger she's ever had! Thank you all for the great service.“
“Portions were big, which made me fill up a lot! Crust was a mixture of soft and crunchy, which just added to the delight. This has to be one of my personal favorites in Metuchen.Wheelchair accessibility: Able to access because in the plaza there are no elevations“

“This was my first time visiting this location and dining in. Mauricio took care of us and provided excellent & polite service. We have ordered for take out before and the food is always amazing! Today we had the lunch special and don’t skimp out on the serving sizes. Inside the restaurant it is very clean, modern decor, and you feel very welcomed. I would recommend anyone to visit or order from this location, you won’t be disappointed. ?“
“Great food and energetic environment. Worth every penny if you want good seafood as well as other great pasta dishes! Try the calamari, crispy lobster dumplings and Italian sausage appetizers, you can't go wrong with either one! The pappardelle bolognese is amazing, my favorite dish thus far. The surf & turf is amazing as well, it will not disappoint!“
“First time at the Nauti Cajun crab, and all I can say is WOW had the boil up for 2 and it was amazingly delicious ?. Appetizer was so good and the house lemonade refreshing. Now let's talk about desert!! Had the Lava cake and son had the carrot cake, decadent doesn't begin to describe it. All and all the food, staff and location is a total vibe I can't recommend enough.“
“The food, service as well as atmosphere of this restaurant was astounding. We ordered man-chow soup, Hakka noodles, triple Szechwan fried rice, paneer chili, gravy Manchurian and Szechwan momos. Every single dish was delicious. The service was fast and staff was very polite, friendly and kind. I will definitely recommend this to everyone!“
“First off, Sarah the bartender is amazing!!! She truly provides top tier service! I popped in last night for about an hour to tune into some live music. The second I sat down Sarah was ready to serve me without any hesitation. She provided perfect drink recommendations according to what I like! Sarah made my great experience an excellent one! Thank you Sarah!Parking: Huge lot, tons of parking“
“I love this place !!! The food is Amazing & the staff & vibe make it a perfect 10+ The owner Salvina makes you feel so welcomed that you feel like you knew her for years .. I can’t wait to go back soon to share their delicious food with family & friends !!!“
“No one can beat your cheese steaks. I had one yesterday from another restaurant and it was terrible. They used slices of yellow American which were hardly melted.. We ordered other food too , which I wasn't overlall thrilled with. VINNYS Old Bridge going forward 100%.“
“As MiddleEasterner, I definitely suggest this high quality Turkish restaurant for Kebab lovers. The food was so delicious as you feel you are in Istanbul and the hospitality proves it.Don’t forget to order Ayran (yougurt drink) as drink and Keshkul as dessert.I will come back again !“
“Found this spot by searching for diners near Somerset, NJ. What's a visit to NJ without s stop to a diner. This was a great decision. My meal consisted of French toast, bacon, home fries and scrambled eggs with cheese. Everything was delicious. Walk in seat yourself. Our server was very pleasant. Decor on the wall was beautiful. Looks small from the outside, but was the perfect spot!!“
“WOW. My husband and I went here for the first time tonight with my in-laws and we were absolutely blown away. The service was top notch, everyone was so attentive. The place was cozy and very clean. The food was INCREDIBLE. Appetizer, meal, dessert one thing was better than the next. The crab cake was perfection, the owner Victor (what a gem of a man!) suggested the meatball appetizer, the cheesecake and bread pudding…GET THESE! The bread pudding was one of the most delicious things I have ever eaten. We also got the lobster bisque, clams, seafood linguine, wild mushroom fettuccine, salmon and mango raspberry sorbet… all absolutely delicious and very healthy portions. 12/10 recommend, wish I could give more than 5 stars!“
“Delicious food, nice sized portions, and the sangria is really good. Would have been 5 stars, but it's a bit expensive...Not enough to keep us away, just be prepared! We shared 1 appetizer, had 2 meals (we did pick the most expensive items on the menu, lobster and Chilean sea bass), 1 dessert, 1 pitcher of sangria, and 2 Irish coffees, and our bill was almost $300. But, we'll be back because it's THAT good!“
“Went here for my step daughters birthday and everything was great. Even tho we were there for over 3 hrs the staff was very attentive and always brought what you asked for. The food was delicious as always. It's a BYOB. There is a liquor store in the same plaza. Great place for a dinner or out to celebrate a special occasion. I don't eat seafood and a lot of their food on the menu was seafood but they have other things too. I recommend everything!Parking: There is a lot of parking but If other businesses are open in the plaza it's a little harder to find a spot.“
“This place is amazing. The food was fresh and huge portions. I’ve been here about 3-4 times. I like this restaurant very much. The sangria is phenomenal! Best I’ve ever had. The salad, simple but incredibly delicious. Fresh baked bread also does not disappoint. I’d definitely recommend, even the sangria alone is worth the trip. They’re definitely doing something right there!!“
“The Golden Corner Diner in Bound Brook is a solid choice for a classic diner experience. The food is fresh and delicious, exactly what you crave from a diner. Everything from juicy burgers to fluffy omelets seems to be made with quality ingredients.The staff at Golden Corner gets a thumbs up too. They're attentive and friendly, making sure your coffee cup stays full and your order is correct. They even shine when it comes to handling large groups. The diner can seat a surprising number of people, and the staff manages to keep things running smoothly even during a rush.Overall, while Golden Corner might not be the most innovative diner out there, it delivers exactly what it promises - delicious food, friendly service, and a comfortable atmosphere. For a reliable and enjoyable diner meal, Golden Corner is a solid four-star option.“
“I loved the food. It's very different. It was my first time experiencing Greek culinary. The cheese appetizer was soooo strong but good, the beet salad was great ( except for the goat cheese), the crab cakes i didn't like at all. the main dish was delicious. The desert was the best for me..they are not expensive and its BYOB.“
“Food was delicious and reasonable for someone on a budget. Was greeted and seated right away upon entering the restaurant. Booth seating was very uncomfortable and tight, need to upgrade those old seats. Service was okay nothing special basic.“
“Was the best pho in the area. Not fresh food anymore. Never a bad experience until the past few months. Staff is friendly but lacks empathy. I don't blame them, the management is non existent. I'm not sure who runs this place now.“
“This spot is very good . It was a bit busy but got a seat fast . I got the chicken tikka which had great flavor also the staff is super friendly and helpful I think every person in the restaurant came to check on despite it being busy , will definitely be coming back .“
“I cannot say enough good things about this place. The service, food and pricing are all exceptional! I actually found out this place from a coworker of mine and figured I would give it a go because I was in search of a different Chinese food restaurant to start ordering from. I won't name places, but when I first moved to the area in 2010 I went to a different place for a few years but their food quality went WAY down (and way before Covid so that can't even be the excuse). Then I found another place who's food I liked but after Covid their prices skyrocketed.So I gave this place a chance and so glad I did. The pricing is beyond reasonable, the food is always delicious and the service is always fantastic. The lady that takes the orders and takes care of the customers is SO friendly and appreciative.The only downfall is they do not deliver and I don't believe they have anything set up with GrubHub etc. So if you're not close to them, then it could be a hike to go pick up the food.But if you do, it'll be worth it ;)HIGHLY recommend!“
“Crab meltaways! Does it get any better! I had the Monte Cristo, it was delicious. My only recommendation, serve it with raspberry jam instead of syrup. But still delicious. My husband had the French Dip. Got a nice big bowl of au jus to dip. We didn't finish and our server packed everything up for us, including a fresh tongo cup of au jus! Our server! What a ball of energy, a great laugh and a fantastic personality. We were there early for lunch and she was the only server for the dining room. She paid attention to all the tables without missing a beat. Great local place. Better than a chain any day of the week.“
“Probably one of the best and decent restaurants out there in Marlboro/Manalapan area. They have variety of menu items. Food comes out quick. I feel the food is bit pricey compared to Perkins. Vegetarians & kids will have no problems ordering their food. $75 for 2 adult and 1 kid.When it gets busier, getting attention of the server becomes tricky.“
“I was in the area on business and just googled restaurants near me. This place popped up quite small but the food was very very good and very reasonable. My whole meal was only $15 that was chips and salsa steak fajitas and a Coke. Definitely well worth the visit if you’re in the area.“
“This place is the new hot spot in town! I believe it will remain that way for a long time. I was recently there and have to say I love the way it was remodeled! The atmosphere is very inviting and the food was delicious. I recommend the churrasco steak and the mofongo. The service is top tier and the music is great. Most of the time they have a DJ or live band which is awesome! I highly recommend this place to anyone.“
“White linen tablecloths. Classy feel though relaxed at lunch. Treated my mom to her fave place. Prices are very reasonable for seafood, great view and great quantity. Loved it! Walked after along water front, view of NY. Delightful experience.“
“I enjoy the food most of the time I come. The only issue I sometimes come across is when I get the green mussels which we all know cost more and are supposed to be better quality then black mussels ; they are so tiny or non existent in its shell. Which is disappointing. Other than that they are pretty great with that boom sauce… If you haven’t been here I suggest you give it a go…“
“Everyone in Sayreville has their own pizza place and Chinese place they go to. Chinese Delite is my go-to restaurant. Great service and very nice people that work there. They know their customers well and how to serve them.Wheelchair accessibility: There is an accessible ramp on the side entrance of the restaurant.“
“Good food I guess but smile or at least look friendly, dear customer facing person. Making it sound like walked into some sopranos character's restaurant and he couldn't care less and had zero intention to help with couple question I had regarding the menu. Hope its not same for all and in future visits.“
Seafood • $$
“All of the food but especially the seafood was so fresh and delicious. The owner told me he personally gets the seafood fresh each morning before sunrise. The presentation of the family style seafood feast was fantastic. We had octopus, shrimp, clams, mussels and so much more. The fruit drinks were made to order and they were fun and tasty - pineapple was a real favorite. It’s a great place for takeout and party platters too.Kid-friendliness: My kids loved watching them make the fresh fruit drinks (coring pineapple, watermelon, etc.)Parking: There are about six parking spaces along side of the building.“
“Honestly I had a really great experience especially because of my server Manuela. She was amazing! She was fast, efficient, and communicated well. That's all you can ask for out of a server! She was also really sweet and down to earth. Highly recommend asking for her when you dine in. The process to get a table was fairly easy and effective with them texting you when your table is ready and being seated right away! The ambiance of course is causal, clean, and just a good environment to connect with whoever you choose to go out with: family, friends, or a partner. The biscuits of course were amazing and none of our entrees did not disappoint ny strip steak, surf and turf, and stuffed flounder . We also got two virgin pina colada, and a mango sangria....All Amazing! We even opted for dessert, the strawberry cheesecake which was delicious.I haven't been here in a long time and I was honestly presently surprised.“
“Nice hole in the wall restaurant. It can get loud depending on how full the restaurant is. But since we were in the back we got a quiet spot :) One thing is the red lights and dim lit restaurant makes the place dark. I wish they brightened up the space with regular lights instead of the colored lights. Made the pictures come out dark too (see pictures for reference) The food was amazing! I loved the guac we ordered for appetizers. Nachos were okay, I have had better. The entrees both were good, flavorful and good portions. They served the rice/beans in tortilla cups so more food to eat! (Not that we finished it all) I took off 1 star because the service was really slow. It took them 45 minutes to give us just appetizers and another maybe 50 minutes for the entrees. We waited for quite some time for the food!! Also their fountain drinks are flat. Just order something bottled instead! When we went they were out of stock on most of the advertised bottled drinks.“
“I absolutely fell in LOVEE with this place !!It’s super cutee with the traditional Japanese seating and the parasols hanging from the ceilingThe food is PHENOMENAL!! Their fusion makes everything deliciousI can get fresh rolls with a twist as well as empanada or tuna tartare with tostones !! You can’t beat it and not to mention I loved everything I ordered !! Absolutely will be coming back“
“I ordered a cheese steak wrap with fries and a tuna salad. It was excellent the wrap was better, than the traditional roll that is normally used for cheese steaks. Plus a wrap has less calories. The cheese steak wasn't oily at all which was a major plus, the onions and peppers really enhanced the flavor. The tuna salad was great. It had mixed lettuce, plum tomatoes,olives,cucumbers, and onions with a generous amount of tuna, with a soft small roll on the side. I was very pleased with the food. I normally bought pizza and wings from Frank's but will definitely order other dishes from now on. Thanks for the great food. I highly recommend Frank's.“
“The food at Carrabas is delicious and extremely comforting!The chicken soup always hits the spot and you can never go wrong with getting the Rigatoni Martino or the Chicken MarsalaThe staff is always super friendly and always accommodating for our food allergies! Thank you for always being one of our go to spots!Dietary restrictions: Gluten allergy and nut allergy“
