“Our server. Charles was very bright and welcoming from the start. He was very humorous to the kids and was playful with them. I enjoyed his company and service and wish to see him againParking: It was fine, not full but somewhat difficult, 1-2 min“
“You can sense that you're going to have fun as soon as you step through the door. If you ask me, the ugly crab is a better alternative than the others. It's delicious and fresh to boil. Without a doubt, I would return to this place. Also get the Shirley temple. ☺️“
“I want to commend our server, Matt. He was so attentive and friendly and professional that it made the dining experience outstanding. The food was outstanding and the service extraordinary! Thank you, Matt. The entire experience was fabulous. We will return !“
“First time visit to this restaurant. Our server Alina was exceptional - made great recommendations. The service was on point. The staff is very efficient. I loved my drink "Pineapple Jalapeno Mockarita". The crab cake, the best we have ever had - no fillers, just fresh crab meat. It's even better than the ones you get in Alaska. Other dishes we ordered including Branzino, Halibut were delicious as well. Portions are big. Next time, we are going to try the salads, we have heard they are great. Memorable experience. Would love to go back.“
“Excellent service matched by amazing authentic Lebanese food. We will definitely be coming back. The owners know the meaning of hospitality and show it in everything they do. The staff was so kind and welcoming. We appreciate finding gems like this in New Jersey. See you all soon!“
“Our Go To restaurant for fine French dining in New Jersey. We have been dining at Chez Catherine for more than 30 years. We have never been disappointed. Upon entering, we are greeted by a friendly host/maitre'd/waiter. He greets you with humor. The dining room is small but there is plenty of space between tables. There is a nice cocktail list and wine by the glass. We opted for a bottle of wine from their extensive collection. There is wine for every budget ranging from $50 to $1750. The menu is prix. fixe with either a 3 course or 4 course option. A few of the items have an up charge. The meal began with a basket of delicious french bread sourced from a local bakery along with an amuse bouche of apricots stuffed with brie. My wife had mussels and I had the steak tartare ($5 up charge). Both were outstanding and the portions were large. For entrees my wife chose the duck breast and I had the cassoulet. Both were delicious, and I took about half of my cassoulet home. For dessert, the souffle of the day was raspberry and we both selected the souffle. We look forward to our next trip.“
“Limani Seafood in Westfield is a gem!!excellent service and a cozy atmosphere that sets the stage for a remarkable dining experience. The standout feature of Leani is its commitment to serving fantastic, fresh seafood dishes. One highlight is their crab cakes, made with 100% crab meat and no fillers, ensuring each bite is a pure delight. The seared scallops are another standout, leaving a lasting impression with their exquisite flavor and perfect execution. And let's not forget about the desserts, which are simply out of this world, offering a sweet finale to an already exceptional meal. Whether you're a seafood enthusiast or simply appreciate fine dining, limani is sure to exceed your expectations. Follow me on Instagram @FoodaholicnJ“
“I have been frequenting this restaurant for the past month. They recently changed the menu to the spring menu. My disappointment was singular. The red flight offering from Paso Robles was not very good. Admittedly, the previous flight offering was from Caymus. The spring flights not only left me wanting but yearning that winter would stay (at least for the wine)“
“Was very pleased w the restaurant. Service was excellent - 2 sisters who have been there for some time so very familiar w business. Food was excellent. The owner, Matt, came out to talk to all the patrons at end of night. Clearly puts a lot of pride in his business. Highly recommend.“
“I was just there last night with my partner, and to say the least we had an amazing time. The service was truly outstanding, and the food on point. I don’t recall the servers name but she was also the bartender and she did an amazing job at making us feel welcomed and got some laughs out of us. Will totally come back for more fun nights.“
“We have been here for lunch, dinner, large parties and date nights.My husband and I came here after we got married and before I went in to have our 2nd child! When i tell you this is our spot, i mean it!We recommend this to all of our friends and family.First, the food is top tier quality and freshness for a very afforable price point. We've been coming here for 3 years now and have always had a great experience between the servers and the front desk, we have always been well taken care of.Today was the icing on the cake.We had a last minute change to our dinner plans for a birthday and i recommend we come here. I called to see if they could accommodate us and they said "well make it work". They fit us [a party of 10] and seated us immediately. Thank you guys for always giving us a great dining experience“
“I’ve been a huge fan of the Station restaurant for years, but hadn’t been in for a while until last night. I went for dinner with my wife and had an absolutely outstanding meal. Alan is a top notch waiter and German is a first class bartender/front of the house who does an excellent job of interacting with the patrons. We were sorry to miss Carlos, one of the best in the business. Our meal was a 10/10, don’t miss the firecracker calamari. My wife had the filet and loved every bite. The grilled marinated hanger steak was cooked to perfection and their scalloped potatoes are the standard by which all others should be measured. Truly superior restaurant, highly recommend.“
“Twelve Islands is always terrific. The service is uniformly good. I love the food. The lamb chops are delicious as is the souvlaki. We like to start with the tirokafteri dip and also the grilled cheese saganaki. It is not inexpensive (the souvlaki is though!) - but the food is great.... Enjoy!“
“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!“
“Had a wonderful time with pals and delectable food treats - and AMAZING waitressing from Katy who answered questions, helped us decide on stuff, and put up with all of our jumbles with a ton of aplomb!My only issue was that the doughnuts were supposed to be pull apart, and they totally weren’t … at least they were super yummy, though!!?“
“Came here for the first time for my dad’s birthday, and every aspect of it was phenomenal. All of our steaks were cooked perfectly and tasted absolutely delicious. Drinks, sides, bread, and dessert were all delicious as well. Service was 10/10, Robert was the best waiter who went above and beyond to make sure our experience was great. Highly highly recommend.“

“Marinos is the best! This is the most consistent restaurant I have ever been to - i have been eating at Marino’s for years (starting at the location in Springfield), and every single meal has been amazing. The owner Mike is very nice, accommodating, and friendly. The atmosphere is great, service is great. The meals here feel like home cooked meals, best restaurant around!!!Dietary restrictions: I have a severe dairy allergy and they always accommodate“
“This is the second time we went to Litho's in the past week. The first time was with my family for dinner, the second time with my extended family for lunch. Both experiences were fantastic. Hasan, our food server for both occasions was excellent. My father who is 103 years young, was very appreciative of the attention he received. Both the lunch and dinner menu offered a great selection of Greek and Americana choices. We tend to arrive early in order to skip the crowds, so the place was quiet, and the service was nicely paced. Lamb chops were especially good and cooked to perfection, nice size portion too. Pricey? Yes, but well worth it for special occasions. Hope to be back again soon!“
“First time yesterday with friends that rave about this place. I can see why. Seems like they have a very active takeout business based on the line at the counter, but we were there for dinner. Very pleasant and attentive wait staff, and the food is really outstanding. We shared some PEI mussels which were cooked to perfection, had some fra diavlo dipping sauce as well which was just the right amount of heat. Not particularly noisy which made for easy conversation. All of us had some type of pasta dish; tastes like the pasta is homemade and perfectly cooked, al dente. Desserts equally tasty and byob keeps the bill reasonable. Will definitely return.“
“The ladies were so helpful taking care of my baby! They happily held and rocked her during my friends bridal shower. The vodka penne was amazing and I enjoyed my chicken Francesce. The bartender makes a good green tea shot. We will be back!“
“I've been here twice before and had a really good experience both times. Both times I sat in the smaller front section and not the formal dining room in the back. The service was great, and they went out of the way to accommodate a couple of high maintenance eaters. The food was also great. I have eaten the arugula avocado salad with grilled chicken which was delicious and fresh. Also the vegetarian pizza and the Enzo pizza were both excellent... nice thin crust without being floppy, not greasy, and the perfect about of toppings. My husband had the penne vodka with chicken cutlet and he enjoyed it. I will be back!“
“Seriously some of the best vegetarian sushi I've ever had. A lot of places just give you very simple rolls. These were extremely creative and delicious. This is now my go to place for sushi as a vegetarian. All the other foods looked amazing as well!“
“This is our go to every Friday night! Food is always fresh and hot. My preference is general tsos shrimp. Large portion for two meals. Others like the shrimp with lobster sauce and chicken fingers with French fries. Good delivery and friendly service“
“We enjoyed our food. The servers were very attentive. Our biggest complaint was that the website did not clearly stated that it was a restaurant that only sold full bottles of wine (not by the glass) with BYOB as an option. I was looking forward to a cocktail, but there was no bar. I could not find that information on the website or in the reviews anywhere.“
“1st time going to the store. I had fried shrimp. Tilapia fish with French fries. All I can say is that the shrimp was EXCELLENT. ???? I had shrimp before but not like this. Every thing was perfect. Right spice and it was fried right. The fish was the same but meaty. Would recommend anyone to go there. I'm going back there twice a week. Very good seafood. The store closes early but that is ok to me.“
“Made 7 15 reservation and was seated at 8 25. Had first food coming out at 8 45. While food was good, we were very disappointed by restaurant management for not honoring reservation time and poor planning/coordination to serve in timely manner.“
“The service and atmosphere were excellent and the food was very good. The scallop and octopus appetizers were excellent. Duck entree was well above average. The bread pudding for dessert was also delicious. Would highly recommend this restaurant.“
“The food was great, there was a D. J in the house spewing out good music. The crowd was young and lively with a dotting number of older adults of which my wife and I were included .I look forward to going back again.Wheelchair accessibility: First floor sidewalk entrance.“
“We frequent this restaurant on special occasions. My husband and I enjoy the atmosphere and the food is always good. We highly recommend the salmon with pan-asian sauce and the filet cooked to the temperature you so desire. I had the Enchanted Rose Martini on Valentine's Day. It was fresh and absolutely delicious! Our server, Liam, was phenomenal.“
“Fasil is exceptional for Mediterranean dishes. Everything is fresh and well prepared. The servers are attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. Fasil has been one of our favorite restaurants in the Boonton area. We love bringing friends and family.“
“I've probably ordered 10-12+ times in the last 2-3 months so had to give them a review. I order here all the time through seamless, it's a bad habit. It's a bit pricy but definitely worth it. My go to is the filet mignon and lobster add shrimp, or just the shrimp if trying to budget. My first time ordering, I tried the chicken & steak combo originally and added shrimp and the chicken/ steak were just okay. Though with teriyaki sauce it helped, it just felt a little bland/dry. The shrimp were pretty good especially with the teriyaki so kept ordering that , then stumbled upon the filet and lobster and love that combo + shrimp. I'd give the chicken/ steak combo (& the scallops, tried once) a 3.5/5 but shrimp, filet & lobster 5/5.I'm a regular customer and overall delivery is quick, food is high quality, order comes with free soup which is pretty good with vegetables. I'd round it out to a 5/5.“
“I have to say every time I visit this restaurant I have an amazing meal and amazing service. The manager is always there greeting people and he goes out of his way for amazing customer service. I visited last night and he went above and beyond to make sure everything was okay. Overall amazing place amazing and amazing food. I always order the grilled octopus and no other place makes it like this. Highly recommend“
“I picked up flounder stuffed with crab to make at home because I've been wanting to stop by here. The space has a genuine old school Italian vibe - it's small, clean and cozy for dining in with a seafood counter at the back wall. The fish ended up being fantastic - so fresh and delicious without additional seasoning!“
“This is our favorite Italian restaurant in the area by far! Prices are fair and the food is so fresh and so delicious. You will not be disappointed with this restaurant. Restauranteur Luis is a terrific host as well. He will make sure your experience is the best! Try Lorenzo’s for lunch as well!“
“Great restaurant - delicious food and wonderful family atmosphere. You need to make a reservation or will be hard to get a table. We have been back many times and every dish we order is delicious. We took few friends with us and now they are bringing their friends. Once you come here for seafood you won't be going anywhere else. Highly recommend it.“
“Pass by this place a lot and finally went inside.Glad I did.Nice old fashioned bar with awesome food.With so many chain restaurants taking over the landscape, it’s refreshing to come to a place like this and actually eat freshly made food and sit back with a few drinks.I will def be coming back!BTW try the hot pastrami sandwich on rye. It was so delicious.“
“Food is pretty good, my 4th time here. It's funny that an Italian Restaurant is actually closed "Every Sunday" when that is the biggest day for Italians and everyone else to go out for macaroni dinner. I'll come back, just not on a Sunday, haha. I'd give them 5 stars if they were open Sundays.. That's just weird. Everyone needs a day off but perhaps take a weekday off instead or rotate Sundays on and off? I'm not the only one who wonders why they close every Sunday..“
“My family and I love ordering from this restaurant. The food is always fresh, delicious, and plentiful. The owner is always pleasant to speak with and the service is always good. The ambiance is small but comfortable. Their lomo saltado and chaufa especial are our go to order, it's delicious every time.“
“I’m writing this for my father.He was craving Mott Street NYC shrimp and calamari but didn’t feel like going to the City. He was in the area and decided to give this place a try. He was very impressed and said it was just as good if not better than Little Italy! It wasn’t exactly on the menu but they still went out of the way to accommodate him-biscuits and all! He also said the people were very friendly. Can’t wait to try Michel Angelo’s too!-From Tom Fico of New Jersey“
“We had an amazing dinner here! The food was delicious and Patricia is a sweetheart!Come and support local businesses and come try this cute little Cuban Restaurant with great food and awesome service.The roasted chicken was delicious, the Chicken Pastel was also so good. But the garlic sauce on the shrimp was amazing!!!Their Cafe con Leche was awesome in the cutest cup!Thank you Patricia! We will be back!“
“The food is excellent, but the older lady working the front door(I think she might be the owner)needs to learn how to treat people more respectfully. She was fine with us, but I saw the way she would speak to customers and rush them out of their seats as soon as they took their last bite. I understand it gets busy in there, but it's the way she speaks to people very authoritarian.“
“This is a byob in a strip mall in cranford. I haven't been there in years but had a delicious meal here tonight. We went on a Friday and got there at 7 pm with no reservations in January. We sat down immediately. They had a special menu and regular menu. I had shrimp over pappardelle w sun dried tomato and garlic. The pasta tasted home made and the shrimp were perfectly cooked. Our servers were prompt. Its a small place with an intimate atmosphere. Some of the desserts were sold out. All in all we really liked it, the prices are fair, too.“
“The store environment is clean and tidy, and dining is comfortable. The service attitude is highly praised and thoughtful, and the dishes are rich in taste and delicious, satisfying the needs of many people. The dishes are fresh, the taste is excellent and so on.“
“Today was our first time at Thirsty Turtle. We had Haley as our server. She was amazing. Friendly and fun. We both had burgers and they were great. The gluten free bun didn’t fall apart like most do. We also shared the guacamole dip and chips. It was great as well. We will definitely be back!! So glad we gave it a try!“
“This place is wonderful!!!! All the workers are so nice and polite.All the food from appetizers to meals are absolutely THE BEST my family and I have had in a quite a while.The calamari is fantastic! We have tried it in many states over the past couple of years and it has never compared to this restaurant.You have to come here!!!! You will be so glad you did!!!“
“This is my new fav spot for lunch.Food is tasty, service is friendly, atmosphere is down to earth. Prices are great and great portions.They have something for everyone. Sandwiches, burgers, pizza, pasta, vegetarian. Indoor and outdoor seating, wheelchair and stroller ramp. I've been here twice and each time both of us got different things and loved it.Vegetarian options: Lots of great options. Not just salad or a grilled veggie wrap with soggy veggies.Kid-friendliness: People regularly bring their strollers and little kiddos. They have pizza and chicken fingers.Wheelchair accessibility: There is a wheelchair ramp leading up to the raised front door.“
“Great food and great service! We had a party of a dozen people to celebrate a special occasion, and we had a great night! They helped us out with everything we needed and didn't rush us through dinner. The food was also very tasty at a good price. Would definitely go back!“
“Went here for my 30th class reunion and the place was packed.The lighting of the atmosphere of the place was perfect,it felt like when you're at a wedding.The food was delicious.I will be making this a must go to for a dinner night or gathering.I can still taste the food,I'm hungry for it and it's 2pm.“
“There's a good reason Human Taste has been around so long. I remember going here as a child, and 30 years later the food is still great. Service was good too. The fish tanks are a nice touch, we were next to a very curious parrot fish.Parking: Parking floods when it rains heavily but it was dry when we went. Tons of parking available, massive lot.“
“Always excellent. Been eating here for years now and never disappoints. Service is always good. And Chuck treats everyone like family. We like to go early so it's not too crowded but reservations are a good idea. Love the Antipasto salad with meat with the BEST dressing (that you can take to go). Get it every time. Pasta ( rigatoni salsiccia & penne vodka) and chicken (Arturo, Marsala) dishes are a must. Weekly specials always worth a try. And leave room for dessert- NY cheesecake.“
