“We went to celebrate my hubby birthday and it's first time he is trying seafood boil ? and it was best experienced ever, we had crab leg, shrimp,and crawfish with Cajun sauce and that was so yummy..Yanni was very attentive and instructed us nicely, she is helpful as well for us being first timer..over all, we have best celebration“
“Food is amazing!!!!!!Customer service could smile more for the customers ?But other than that everything was hands delicious ?P.S. don't be alarmed when you come inside. If you have a huge group of people they have enough for your party Kid-friendliness: Here is a suggestion add more to the kids menu :)“
“All, I can say is that, if what I ate was a pizza, then I discovered pizza for the first time. This pizza had a completely different genealogy. Normally, I eat one slice and sometimes, but rarely, two. This time I ate an entire pizza! In one sitting!Parking: Parking is the most difficult part.“
“Was just walking by and the vibrsnt colors peaked my interest and had ti go in-The best tasting smoothie I've ever ordered. As a guy who lives on chick fil a and chipotle, I can taste the healthiness. Very fresh, very healthy, very happy.Probably falls into the premium product category, but as far as getting what you pay for, it's a 10 out of 10 for me.Will come back again!“
“Didn't eat. Killed two hours here rather easily. Immediately had two open spots at the bar but we were lucky in our timing, this place can get full fast. Never had to wait for a new drink, bartenders were on top of everything.It's a local stop in Jersey City, though, so be prepared for the accent and the attitude. If you're not from Hudson County, it might seem a little rough, but this is a great spot. Lean into it.Parking: If you don't parallel park then go to a mall, you don't belong here.“
“Been going to Shannon Rose for years...dinner with friends, teacher appreciation etc. I love their food especially their nachos and burgers and I loooove the sangria. We love Ashley she's a great worker, pleasant and always willing to accommodate us. Def a 5 start visit when Ashley's working!!“
“Never been a fan of this chain but decided to stop by at this one today and I’m so glad I did! The staff was phenomenal and so helpful with me coming with a special needs kid in a stroller and the food was off the charts good! I’ll definitely be back at this location again ?“
“We had a group of 10 and service was great. We felt like we were personally attended by very polite and friendly waiters and waitresses. Food 2as authentic and scrumscious. Dessert was homemade and unique.Parking: On a Friday night there was parking witjin a block.“
“It was my first time at a tapas bar and it couldn’t have been better. The upstairs dining room was really comfortable and felt homelike. Service was friendly and attention to detail was definitely practiced. The food was great. The best calamari I’ve experienced it wasn’t rubber like by any means. The lamb chops were very juicy and had a great sauce on them. Additionally the sangria was good. A pitcher goes a long way for two people. We would both strongly encourage visiting Beso.“
“I gave it 4 stars because I got the all you can eat and the gratuities were already on the bill and I didn't notice until after I got home so I tipped extra. It would be nice if they told you 2 people are automatic gratuity or all you can eat is automatic gratuity. They might be doing this for one person in the union location for all I know!“
“our absolute favorite restaurant almost anywhere. Best described as new American comfort Food with the twist. The chef is phenomenal. The service is also wonderful and attentive. A generous poor of wine. Prices are reasonable. Highly recommend.“
“Had a guys night out with 10 friends, the staff was amazing, top notch service. I believe her name was Gina. Made great drinks and great sense of humor. Food was delicious, had the pork chop with pineapple plus some other toppings which now ranks top 2 on my list. Thank you for hosting us. Will be back again very soon.“
“Thank you for not disappointing. My friends and I had a girls' night, and they had not known this existed. They were happy with their meals and impressed with the place.I had been here twice, and the 3rd time was still a charm.Gives the other Cuban places a run for their money.“
“Nugents!! Modern day Cheers!! Where everybody knows your name! Tony! GINA! Kayla! Shelly! Eric! These are thee Absolute best Bar Stars in Elizabeth!!! Service is impeccable always, top tier.. they remember faces and matches it your Order!! Super friendly and this bar becomes sorta like a lil bar family“
“Very kind, we came to visit from Philadelphia and we were delighted with the experience here! The man at the door helped us with the child's car and accommodated us very well and the waiter was equally friendly! 5 stars! Recommended! Thank you“
“Tried to post a review but this place didn't exist on Yelp so decided to add it just to post a review becauseeeeee, I had one of the best airport salads here. We all know airport food isn't great so being that I got a great meal, I had to give them props. I got the brussel sprouts salad and added chicken. The grilled chicken was well seasoned/charred. Salad was low on brussel sprouts but the mixed greens made up for it. Almonds, pomegranate seeds, and craisins were a nice mix. Overall I'm just happy I got a fresh and good tasting salad in good portion size. Still overpriced but what can you do? It's at the airport.“
“Went with a friend to Hook and Reel and had an amazing experience. The food was delicious and VERY affordable. I had such a great time I returned the following day. I have to say what made the visit great for me was the staff and service. Our servers Richard and Taylor made us feel at home. The manager Sarah came out to greet us on our second visit. She was very sweet and down to earth. I highly recommend giving Hook and Reel a visit. ??“
“My experience at the restaurant was a bit overwhelming due to the noise and crowded atmosphere, especially on a Friday night with live music. Despite the tight arrangement of tables making it difficult to move around, the food and service were excellent. I particularly enjoyed the vegetarian dish with pasta and plan on returning for it. My friends also loved their salmon dishes and couldn't stop raving about how delicious it was. Overall, while the ambiance was not to my liking, the quality of the food and service made up for it.“
“Came here for darts. Dart boards are in the back room which is great for the leagues. As each table is for a team. One server for the whole night which was great cause he came by very often. The food they served us wasn't bad at all. I haven't been to the restaurant side of it yet, but it seemed full for a Tuesday night for dinner.“
“Pretty good merge between old school JC neighborhood bar and the gentrified implant hipster JC crowd of late. Fun place. Good food, but sometimes inconsistent when the bar/kitchen closes. Great service. Awesome bartenders like Amber, Rinny, Nolan Francis and a few more I am forgetting to list right now.“
“This was my very first time coming to Borelli's and I'm so glad I did, it features a wonderful staff, wonderful food and a warm & friendly owner who has 6 grandchildren! My lovely date and I sat at the bar and got the last two available stools; it's a cool, small U-shaped bar with a lot of friendly people that are regulars there and they helped us make wise menu selections as did the owner. We started out with Bluepoint oysters that were just splendid and progressed to Bareli's meatball dish, which is definitely a must if you go, a few lovely Chianti Classicos for me and Pinot Grigio for my date, we were happy as a lark, we'll back tonight to see Lonnie Youngblood perform which I couldn't believe, he's 87 years old and still gigging. Somebody buy this man a gold watch! We were also told that the Italian pork chop here is not mind blowing superb. Two. Thumbs up kiddos.“
“Never thought that there is a cool barn in town. My 1st impression was the woodenly rustic environment and decorations bringing the cozy vibe. Food and drinks were perfectly tasty. Our waiter that night was helpful and informative. This spot is voted for one of the most beautiful ones during the Christmas season. Can't wait to come back.“
“I have to say this place is top-notch phenomenal ?. I was here with my family for my birthday and Jon was our server. To start we ordered the wings and Burrata as appetizers OMG delicious. For entrees, we ordered the Tomahawk for my husband and I with hand-cut fries and brussel sprouts and my daughter ordered the Boneless Ribeye with asparagus and mashed potatoes. Every single dish tasted like homemade. For dessert, we had the Tres leches and Tiramisu. Tres leches wasn't too sweet and Tiramisu was on point. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking to enjoy a delicious steak.????? stars in my book ?“
“My boyfriend and I had our first date there in April, and I am pleased to say, we are still together and have returned twice thereafter :) the girls all remember us and are always so great to chat with! I can’t recommend them enough, and their food is to die for! 11/10 would recommend! (Photo is from our first date!)“
“This a 5 star review because it hit all of the check marks. You simply cannot get the same value you will get here anywhere else.Firstly, the staff is family, and very welcoming and accommodating. They Truly care about the restaurant, its legacy and there foodA very comfortable environment with 80's/90's country music playing and a homey feeling dining room. I felt like I went my cousins for dinner and coffee.Our waitress was one of the owners and helped me select some craft brews they offered. Very generous and appreciated.The Buffalo Wings are excellent. Cooked right and in a thinner sauce with a little zing but not overpowering.Our dinners were the Godfather Trio (Veal, Shrimp Parm and Eggplan Rollantini) and the 16oz Sizzling steak.The Italian Trio was a good portion and had a nice sauce, very filling and a very reasonable price.The Steak was better than some steakhouses and "higher-end" restaurants that like to charge $40-$60 for it.The steak was PERFECT! And for a price point under $30 is one of the best bargains you can find! Flavor was amazing and cooked expertly!We finished with coffee and the Chocolate Mousse Cake & Cheesecake. Well worth it and again; a price you can't beat.We even took home dinners for work the next day. It was that good.This is a Gem and a throw back to how things used to be and should be. Where your welcomed in and treated like a guest in a home and fed a wonderful meal.***Keep in mind - Cash Only But the have anATM on site. Not a big deal.Head in and enjoy. I'll definitely be back!!!“
“I love love love Desiree, Gerry, Dan, and Kelly. Such great staff and energy. No matter what kind of day it is, I always feel welcomed. Thank you for being such amazing people! If you’re ever around the area, come by! You won’t regret it <3“
“Stopped in to check out the place for a private party. Had a quick fancy drink, that was amazingly delicious! The owner is very friendly and the place is as clean as a whistle! Definitely coming back hereParking: Had to circle around a few times to find parking. Someone left so I was lucky!“
“It's been a while since I've stopped in here, but had one of the best, and most fulfilling brunch meals I've had in a long time. Huevo Rancheros. From top to bottom it was almost perfect, from the fresh sliced avocado to the eggs, beans, and perfectly crispy tortilla on the bottom. The brunch special includes one booze breakfast drink, and also a side of home fries that were also delicious and ample in serving size.“
“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Envy Bar and Grille and I must say, I was thoroughly impressed. The blend of Portuguese and American cuisine on the menu was both unique and delicious. The flavors were a perfect marriage of both cultures.The ambiance of the restaurant was also a standout feature. The cool artwork around the space added a trendy and modern vibe. It was a great place to relax and enjoy a meal.I also want to give a shoutout to our waitress who provided exceptional service throughout our meal. She was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu.Overall, I highly recommend Envy Bar and Grille for anyone looking for a unique dining experience in Newark. The food, atmosphere, and service all exceeded my expectations. I will definitely be returning in the future.Parking: No parking lot for the restaurant. Need to find street parking which depending on the day and time you go -is not a problem.“
“Charley is hands down my favorite restaurant in the Harrison area. From the food, the vibes, to the great cocktails, whatever you choose, you can’t go wrong. Jay behind the bar and Sam on the floor really elevate the experience by providing quality service. 10/10 highly recommend.“
“I used to frequent the Notch back in my Montclair Days (80's baby!) Rich and I (8 total!) all drove (3 cars!) to Daytona Beach on Spring Break back in 1987 or 88 I forget and he's like the most awesome guy ever and I am glad to see he still is! He said he'd never sell the place and I see they literally re-built around him; everything is new! Way to go Rich you Diamond David Lee Roth sonofagun you! The Great Notch Inn and Montclair State University are the only original landmarks around and I think Rich & The Notch will still be standing long after the college is gone! Well done Sir (clap-clap) well done indeed! Your Old Pal, Not 'sweet Lou'.....Chris!! The ringleader!! PS: 'Phyllis!!!' PSS: Did those queerdos Mark or Tom ever pay you back for like 'taking care of everyone' the entire week?! Those scumbags!! Love you & miss U bro!“
“I recently experienced exceptional service and bartending at a local establishment. The staff, led by skilled bartenders, demonstrated a high level of professionalism and friendliness , to providing attentive service, and the overall experience was top-notch. The ambiance, coupled with the expertise of the bartenders, made for an enjoyable and memorable evening. Highly recommend for those seeking both quality drinks and outstanding service. Mimi is also very lovely , very sweet , one of my favorite Bartenders, her service was outstanding! Definitely coming back“
“Have not been here in years. Service was amazing. Our server Tim was the best. The owner was so friendly and attentive. Food was fresh, hot and tasty. Atmosphere was family friendly and great for all ages. Very reasonably priced. Bonus- upstairs if you want to host a party. We will definitely be going back. We highly recommend the Firehouse“
“Listen here I went to my niece 16 here and when I tell you I felt like it was the White House lol amazing place, clean and the people are well train to the fact I ask for water and 3 bottles by 3 different people came lol the manager is also very friendly and amazing and hope to have my daughter one here soon thank u“
“Definitely a five star experience!!! We arrived just before happy hour ended (4-5:30) and they were kind enough to place a quick order of oysters!!! They were super fresh and delicious... favs were west coast (sorry NJ). Next, came the Parker rolls!!! Probably my favorite part of the meal, but then again, who doesn't like homemade, freshly baked rolls with buttered top and a touch of salt!!! Because everything looked so good, we opted for a bunch of other appys to start! The New Zealand angus beef bites were served with horseradish aioli and a Parker roll, the halloumi cheese was accompanied by orange slices, prosciutto, radicchio and dehydrated olives. The octopus was spectacular... crispy with romanesco sauce, fried chickpeas, cilantro and paprika breadcrumbs. Of course, we had to also try the OHS mussel pot... with chorizo, saffron, garlic cream, sun dried tomatoes... and an herbed garlic roll on top!!! LOVED THEM ALL! It's not often that so many different, but complimentary flavors are presented in each dish!!! We could have stopped our meals there and would have been pleasantly satisfied and full! Next, we chose a couple of the sirloin sandwiches with fries, and the squid ink pasta with Calabrian chili and Meyer lemon breadcrumbs!!! All was very good. The evening was finished with 3 of their delicious desserts... the lemon meringue tart was the perfect sweet with a pucker. The molten dark chocolate cake was decadent. And the trio of gelatos were each so uniquely flavorful and delicious! Wow!!! Given that 100 steps is a BYOB, it makes everything even more affordable! We had spectacular service in this beautiful restaurant with amazing food! It was quite a special evening!“
“Stayed at the Fairfield inn near Newark Airport and it was difficult to find a restaurant that would deliver to us - we didn't have a car. Luckily, Ellie's bistro did deliver through grub hub. We ordered a salad and eggplant Parmesan to split. The portions were huge and the food was delicious. Food arrived the correct temperature and quick. Great experience!“

“Crab Island exceeded all expectations with their delightful Cajun seafood offerings and exceptional service. Despite high anticipation, every dish surpassed our hopes, bursting with authentic flavors that transported us to the heart of Cajun cuisine. The friendly staff added to the warmth of the experience, offering knowledgeable recommendations and ensuring our every need was met with a smile. From the perfectly seasoned boils to the succulent grilled seafood, every bite was a testament to the chef's skill and dedication to quality. Without a doubt, Crab Island stands as a beacon of Cajun culinary excellence, deserving of every praise.“
“We came with a group to celebrate a great friends promotion…which was also a surprise wedding proposal for her. Marc was extremely accommodating and Kristina, who was our server as well as the manager was beyond amazing. She was on point and went well beyond to make our experience awesome…all while handling another large group. I cannot express enough how thankful we are and what a great experience we had! Thank you Blackjacks!!!“
“Was there for a show. Very crowded - in a good way - and busy kitchen. Still managed to seat and serve everyone with courtesy and timeliness. Other patrons very warm and friendly. A great place for an adult night out. Good food, good people, good music.“
“Although I experienced a wait of about 40 minutes on a bustling Saturday, the exceptional dining experience that followed made it well worth the delay. From the moment I stepped inside only experienced good things.Our server Leo was knowledgeable, attentive and made great recommendations. The appetizer was amazing, can’t remember the name but will attach a photo. The entries were cooked to perfection I ordered Ensalada de la casa con churrascoFilete de pescado con cangrejo y vegetales.The flavor were bold and authentic, and the portions were generous. I found the price very decent. Top-notch service, exceptional cuisine, and cleanliness - Rumba Cubana truly deserves a 5-star rating. Can't wait to come back!"“
“The absolute best dive bar I’ve ever been to! A friend and I came up from North Carolina for the weekend and stumbled upon Charlie’s…. 10/10!! We instantly felt welcomed and the bartenders are the best! Make sure you go on karaoke night!“
“If you love Spanish food, especially Cuban food, then this is the place for you and your family. My one big gripe is the seating is too close to each other. I don't like having to hear private conversations of other diners. Either expand the place or minimize the seating. This is an issue at ALL their locations. Also, it's difficult for someone in a wheelchair to get around.“
“I had a wonderful experience at Zaaman! If you're looking for great middle eastern food, look no further! There are so many delicious vegetarian options- I recommend the fattoush, falafel, hummus, labneh and baba ghanoush. The place itself was warm and inviting, and I was lucky to hear some live music. I danced all evening. Great food, and great fun. I will definitely be back.“
“Just went last night for the first time. Food and drinks were awesome. The space is huge, and they have a large seating area outside. Definitely family friendly and lots of room for parents with strollers. They also have vegan options which is a rare find for a pizza spot! I’ll definitely be back.“
“So this was a take out order, and we were looking for Comfort Food. We found just that in an order of plain chicken wings and an order of macaroni and cheese. The wings were large, super crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, nicely seasoned. The al dente spiral macaroni held onto the generous amount of creamy and yummy cheese sauce. We’ll be ordering it again!“
“They are very welcoming to everyone and as well as your furry child which I love! Great German beers on tap. Also great place to watch sports. They have a fun DJ who is interactive and plays a very cool mix of songs. They don’t serve food but they brought in 6 ft. Subs 2 times that I showed up which they offered and passed around to everyone which I thought was awesome! My favorite dog bar!“
“I've decided this is my go to bar to bring everyone when we meet up from family, friends, coworkers, day drinking etc. I like the theme nights, bingo, trivia, bands, etc. I want business to go well from them so they open with kitchen & its profitable all week. Foods amazing...good "no mess behaved" atmosphere. My go to place. Bartenders and everyone are nice.“
“My dad first put me on this restaurant by its delicious, fresh takeout food. We'd typically order octopus or whole fish. My parents decided to take us out for our birthday and it was not a disappointment. I felt like I was in Portugal without actually traveling there and it's a home away from home from the moment you walk in.Everyone ordered different entrées and each dish offered a unique, top-quality taste. If you're looking for an authentic Portuguese spot in the Hudson County area, Pic-Nic is your go-to!Vegetarian options: There is a vegetarian option available on the menu.Parking: About 11 or 12 parking spaces and street parking is very difficult given the area.Kid-friendliness: While there is no kids menu, there are few options available for children.Wheelchair accessibility: Whether parked in the lot or on the street, you can easily access the lot, entrance and seating area with a wheelchair.“
