“Dinner: dried tofu skin fried with peppers, sauteed kidney, deep fried boneless pork rib with rainbow pepper salt, hog maw with cilantro, stir fried clams, stewed chicken and mushroom with transparent bean noodle. Dim Sum: Shredded beef burger. Bao zi. The chef is a great master of northern style Chinese cooking, rich flavors yet light. Amazing.“

“Passed this place a bunch of times. So I was hungry. So I said let’s give it a try. Well was amazing. Staff from moment walked in very friendly. Warm welcome. Started off with the Fire Roasted Wings (10) flame-broiled all-natural chicken wings marinated in fresh herbs & spices + lemon & herb dipping sauce Dough-Roni Pie Olli Salumeria pepperoni + tomato sauce + ricotta + fresh mozzarella + red onions Lemon Ricotta Ravioli Hand-made Ravioli + summer squash + fresh mint + pistachios + lemon zest + parmesan cheese Got off track sorry. Has seating at bar and has outside patio. (Was just a little to hot out there today) Very clean and definitely swinging by again. It’s right across street from Fairfield airport. Can’t forget the wine cooler before seated. There had to be 25+ wines to choose from.“

“Grew up going to the Nutley location and now they're in Fairfield. I swear on their Ribs but they have a fantastic beer list with great local options and awesome happy hour specials for drinks and apps ( highly recommend prime rib Sliders). Met family for dinner the other night and got the "Baby Spinach" Salad with steak added and the steak was cooked perfectly and every ingredient was fresh. Huge menu that could accommodate pretty much anyone. Great stop in the area.“

“I haven't been to this location before. I have been to the Seasons 52 at Menlo Park and Bridgewater Mall. I was pleasantly surprised that this location was the best. The food is always good. The dessert carousel has many choices. The right portion after a great meal.“

“Had dinner there for the second time on Saturday night! It was very memorable. The food was absolutely fantastic. I had the eggplant with the Barata for an appetizer. It was so delicious and so tasty and my main course was the homemade linguine with lump crab and corn. We also got the meatball which was spectacular and then I got the cheesecake dessert which was one of the best cheesecakes I’ve ever eaten. I absolutely love love love this place. Can’t wait to go back and eat there again.“

“Went to yard house tonight . Great place but no atmosphere for the holidays . Every Restaurant you go to is decorated & fun .It's no joy , fun, why would you stop decorating your place . People enjoy the Xmas Decor & it's makes people feel more festive & want to drink , eat & enjoy .Big mistake not to decorate.“

“Can I just say WOW!!!! Been waiting to come here for quite some time, and it far surpassed every expectation I had!! Staff was lovely! Creative, DELICIOUS appetizers... We tried several, and seriously each one was SOOO GOOD!!! I'm a huge fan of Detroit style pizza, and it was cooked to perfection! Dessert was absolutely phenomenal as well! One of the best meals I've had in some time, from start to finish! They even had live music upstairs, which was such a nice surprise! Can't wait for our next trip back!!! Thank you for a wonderful evening!“

“Our waitress Anna was awesome ! When eating with a 3 year old for breakfast it's a little more challenging on the wait staff , but Anna had it all under control ! Great food greater service a little pricey for the breakfast buffet $40 per head but you get what you pay for ! Excellent experience , the entire hotel was awesome for our family of 7 trip !“

“What a burger!!! The National, soooooo good“

“We dined at Robert’s for the first time. We were celebrating a relative’s birthday. The food was outrageous! The appetizers were amazing as were all of the entrees. I had chicken stuffed with mushrooms and I can honestly say that it was the best chicken I have ever eaten. The portions were plentiful. We had a large selection of desserts to choose from at the end of the meal. I chose one particular dessert but before mine came out, I asked if I could exchange it for one that someone in our party had in front of her. No problem. They accommodated me and it was beyond delicious. Also, the staff was very attentive during our whole meal. They could not have been any better. The only negative was the fact that there was also another birthday celebration going on at the same time and it was so noisy that we couldn’t hear each other talk. Despite that, I wouldn’t hesitate to return to this fabulous restaurant.“

“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.“

“Fabulous place to host a private event in their beautiful downstairs area. The buffet was one of the best I have ever been to, the dressing on the salad was exceptional. The owner was very accommodating and the menu offered a variety of choices that took into consideration allergies and dietary preferences. not one complaint on any of the food. our server dona was terrific, the place is beautiful, the atmosphere is great, lots of parking available and very reasonable prices. I have also been there for lunch and highly recommend their flatbread. Love this place and will be back often.“

“A big, delicious mess. That is what I expect when I order BBQ style items off a menu and that's what I received! I stopped by for lunch and ordered the BBQ Beef Brisket sandwich. It was much larger than I expected and I did my best to finish it but did not fully succeed. The meat was overflowing and the sauce got everywhere.

The sides were decent. I loved the slaw but the fries could have used a little salt.

I am in town for a few more days and will definitely be back to try the ribs and some happy hour specials.“

“My go-to ? I love coming here for breakfast/lunch. Absolutely great service, quick, feels very cozy, and the food has always been exceptional.

“We would recommend the Coconut Grilled chicken and red grapes salad. Tasty to the last drop. We also enjoyed dining outside in this beautiful weather.“

“My husband I went in to eat. Yes, it was busy. Our initial greeter seated us. We placed our drink and food orders and received our drinks. We received our drinks after 5 minutes of arrival. Unfortunately, we waited for another 30+ minutes only for our server to say "1 minute please". Needless to say, if we were served, this poor review would not have been necessary. I paid for our drinks and left disappointed and hungry. I have drinks at home, what we needed was to be fed and given service...shameful“

“My husband and I went for my birthday lunch. The food was excellant and so were the drinks! We could not have asked for a more polite and accommodating waiter“

“I was hostessing there. The 3 owners work really hard to accommodate the customers, the tents really were a blessing to so many of them especially when it rained. . Lots of people enjoyed just being able to come out and see others and share a meal with each other. Everyone loved the food Especially now that Giuseppe has joined as the main cook. His meals can’t compare to none other as that’s what all the customers told me the other day“

“The jerk shrimp and scallop appetizer was absolutely amazing. I will most definitely be revisiting this place frequently.“

“Amazing drinks amazing bartenders!!!“

“This place have some Amazing verity of flavors . They have so many verity of toppings also. Service is good . Price is average . They have some seating inside and outside of the store too. They also have a handful number of frozen yogurt too.“

“Been going there 40 years.. the place has gone to hell in a hand basket.. the soup bowl is 1/2" deep, $5 for each shrimp (not the old jumbo shrimp- too small for $5 each), no bread, no longer offering lobster, been waiting a hour for entree.“

“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.“

“I just discovered this place. Great Chicken.“
