“I was extremely pleased with Calandra's Mediterranean Grill. The entire place was nicely decorated for the holidays. Our server was very attentive, and the special luncheon menu was more than I had anticipated. Everything was very nice and would definitely return again.“

“Great food, fast service. Been coming here for years. Don’t mind the 80’s music but they have it CRANKED. Came in for breakfast and couldn’t even have a conversation with my wife as Journey played in the background.“

“We went there for Thanksgiving and they had a Grinch Themed atmosphere which was tastefully done. We needed to change our table because the first one was too small for 4 people. Everything was good overall, but where they fall short is on their desserts. For a place that is known for their baked goods, sadly, they do not offer them in their restaurant.“

“We had 18 classmates for dinner!! It was an exceptional evening!! Vince our server was just the absolute best! He was on point with everything! He didn’t miss a thing! He was personable, and so much fun! All the servers were so friendly! 18 of us and not one complaint 😊

“I had a private event in the Parlor Room and it was fabulous. Food and drinks were spot on and the service was dynamite. There were 21 of us all together and everyone was well cared for by server Lily and the rest of the awesome staff. I really love the unique atmosphere of the place -warm, classy and comfortable all at once. No boring old chain restaurant vibes here. Everyone had a great time. I would definitely host future events here.“

“Tucked away behind the Main Street we stumbled upon this excellent restaurant. We ordered Spring rolls and a Japanese thingy for starter, both were really good. For mains it was Beef and Ginger and Prawn Fried Rice, again both excellent. So for 2 starters, 2 mains and 4 drinks it came to 58 euros, even excellenter ?…music choice was a bit different in that it was dance oriented but wasn’t out of place. We have booked again and would obviously recommend ?“

“This has quickly become my new favorite spot. The staff and owner are incredibly friendly and welcoming, always making sure you feel right at home. The bar has an awesome partnership with the Smoke Shack BBQ across the street, making it even better. The vibe is laid-back, and they offer a great selection of craft beers, wines, and a wide variety of whiskeys and tequilas. It's the perfect place to relax and enjoy a good drink.“

If you’re into beer, pool, darts, shuffleboard, and just a good time in general, this is the place to check out. Excited to see what’s coming next for The Sidedoor!“

“My favorite bar in West Orange, NJ! Super friendly management, reasonable prices, casual atmosphere and great music! A place where stories begin...“

“I went to celebrate my cousin's birthday party. The dining area and dance floor were a good size. The bar area had a huge screen for watching sports and enjoying the appetizers that were being passed out. The wait staff were very attentive.The restrooms were clean but needed to be attended to more. Somebody took my umbrella which was left in the bucket area when you come in and out. It didn't ruin my night, I had a great time.I think my cousins had a cater.

Wheelchair accessibility: Flat area to walk in and out, the restrooms maybe tight.“

“Amazing drinks amazing bartenders!!!“

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

“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.“

“Dante’s has truly transformed the old Alexis Steakhouse space with a modern, refreshing facelift and a fantastic menu to match. It’s the perfect spot for happy hour, a night out with family or friends, or even a business lunch. One of the standout features is their exclusive upstairs party room, which accommodates 75+ guests—ideal for baby showers, bridal showers, or business meetings. The space includes a flat-screen TV for presentations or party highlights, plus its own private bathroom and bar. Convenience is another plus: Dante’s offers plenty of parking and is located near all major highways (Rt. 46, Rt. 3, Parkway, Turnpike, and Rt. 80). The cozy bar area is great for catching a game, and their intimate lounge space comfortably seats up to 10 people with private wait service—perfect for small gatherings. I’ve enjoyed Dante’s for everything from meeting friends and business lunches to happy hours and private lounge get-togethers. The food never disappoints: the prime burger is massive and made with quality prime rib, the tuna tartare is fresh and loaded with avocado, and their homemade chips are addictive. The clams casino are packed with flavor, the steak sandwich features premium cuts, and the pear salad with grilled chicken is a delicious option if you’re looking for something lighter. Check it out—you won’t be disappointed!“
