New American Restaurants near Haddonfield, NJ

“We just celebrated my birthday with friends there tonight and LOVED it!! Noah, our server, was absolutely fantastic! The food, delish!! The inside was gorgeous! We live an hour away and will come back!!! Highly recommend!!“

“What a sensational dining experience! We loved every course we had; a unique caesar salad (with grilled broccolini and fennel!), the "world's best hotdog" (a wagyu hotdog on a delicious buttery roll which truly was the world's best hotdog), truffle gnocchi mac 'n cheese, roasted peach confit duck, and barbecued chili lime pork. The S'mores cookie pie dessert was simply amazing! Service was exceptional (Kyle was the ideal server! polite, friendly, gracious and attentive - thank you so much). The staff is welcoming, the dining room is small and cozy, and everything about this local spot is charming. We will return for sure.“

“The Love. was simply incredible! We came here with our 6 year old son. Our waiter was fabulous and very accommodating to our 6 year old which you don’t always find in Rittenhouse. The atmosphere was light and airy and the food was great! Make sure to try their Dubai Chocolate Sundae and if you’re going with children they do have special kids cups and will accommodate the menu for them.“

“Worth the wait. This was our last Philly Michelin m-starred restaurant to try. It’s the absolute best. The food was extraordinary and I’m already dreaming of my next meal there. My particular favorites included the buckwheat tart with morels and both pasta courses (one was an add on). Sadly I will now never feel satiated unless I’m eating Chef Schulman’s triangoli. A beautiful and intimate space with incredible care by the entire staff. Amanda Schulman was incredibly welcoming and engaged with the diners. Wine pairing was outstanding as was my Negroni made with Bruto Americano. The marzipan rhubarb cake was the stuff dreams are made of. So, so, so happy after this meal. Did I mention? Attentive and wonderful, wonderful staff. Thank you for an amazing evening!“

“The food and service were outstanding and the ambiance was perfect for our Anniversary dinner.“

“Great food, music, and service!“

“Really lovely spot with good food and drinks. We loved the sourdough bread with anchovies and tomato butter, oysters with Alabama white sauce, strachiatella and Caesar salad. Everything had great flavors and textures. The smoked fish tartine and halibut were a bit disappointing, we found them dry and underseasoned. We finished our meal with the delicious frozen key lime pie!“

“Great menu, nice bar scene!“

“One of the finest restaurants we’ve had the pleasure of experiencing. A++++++“

“The food was very good. I liked that they gave complementary sparkling water with lemon.
Service was excellent. I had the steak with latkes and it was definitely very good. Apps and desserts were shared and most of them were delicious. Some we didn't love but it wasn't bad. I'd come back again!“

“Such a cute place and the food was absolutely amazing. My friends and I went for brunch and loved it. Highly recommend!“

“I had a great brunch. Loved the atmosphere. Food was excellent. I’ll definitely be back“

“We loved the food, the service and the ambiance. We will be back when we visit Phila again.“

“I always love my experience at Kiddo! The seasonal menu changes with what’s fresh and I love how they keep their sources local. The food is creative, surprising, and incredibly tasty. A perfect date spot or a great choice for a night out with the locavore in your life.“

“Great Sports Bar! Plenty of TVs in their main bar area and both dinning rooms. I would absolutely recommend you get the burger. It was packed full of greens, with the lettuce sauteed onions and grilled eggplant, but balanced it nicely with a big meaty patty and delicious house sauce. The fries were also exceptional, potentially double fried and thick cut, these steak fries were crispy and the perfect compliment to the burger. Staff was friendly and attentive and the neighborhood was cute!“

“Everyone who was working there was genuinely friendly and the food is amazing. I definitely recommend the wild mushroom toast.“

“Unique food, cozy, candlelit atmosphere. Our group enjoyed it tremendously. Highly recommend.“

“Everything was perfect from the moment I entered. The front host greeted me with a welcoming smile. I dined at the bar. My bartender was incredibly knowledgeable and walked me through a beautiful meal. Service was top notch. The team work was beautiful to watch. Great attention to detail. The food absolutely amazing. 5 stars“

“This past year I had to private events at Lamp Post, one brunch, one dinner. I can't begin to say how wonderful both was. The staff goes well above and beyond with everything and the food was great. You can't beat the price.“

“Perfect lunch for my mom's 90th birthday!! Lisa went above and beyond to make her lunch special!! From the cute Happy Birthday sign at the table, champagne toast, amuse bouche, the absolutely delicious meal and our mini desserts.....everything was awesome!! Thank you!!“

“Mt Laurel is not a hot bed for… anything… but Monterey Grill is THE silver lining in Mt Laurel. Chef Andrew and his kitchen staff have a group personality matches their menu to a “T”. It’s controlled chaos but the flavor profiles of every dish are enjoyable and it gives guests something different to enjoy every night. The waiting staff are all amazing; welcoming, fun, and professional. They know their menu like pros and they know their wine list equally as well. The regular bar tenders are GREAT and their smokey old fashions are next to none in the area.

Only feedback: Management could do a better job at livening up the atmosphere… there used to be live music all the time and now they only have live music on Fridays. There was recently a change in management, so I suspect that these unwanted changes came from ownership and the new upper management team to save money, but it’s been a big swing and an even bigger miss.

Locals have loved this spot for years. Hopefully ownership come to terms with their mistakes and decide to run it back because Monterey Grill was perfect the way it was for many years.

Don’t let it turn into a “chainy” feeling vibe like Harvest or Red Stone. People like restaurants that are boutique and different. Character is everything in the hospitality business and the staff at Monterey Grill already has that!

Management has a choice to make… hopefully they figure it out. I’ll always support this spot, if for nothing else because the staff deserves the support.“

“My first time at the yard house and I’ll be back! It seemed a little busy but a table for two was a quick 10-15 mins. Our waitress was very nice and had a good flow of service. She checked on us just enough and our drinks and food came out in good timing.
I had an old fashioned which was balanced well. We had the Brussels sprouts, shrimp app, and spicy beef noodles. Everything tasted great and we will definitely be back and I can’t wait to come for football season!“

“I recently celebrated a milestone birthday with a dinner at Elwood with family and friends. Chef Adam and Jenny were wonderful to work with and the meal was absolutely delicious. Everyone loved the venison scrapple amuse bouche. We shared several orders of perogies and cheese platters to kick off the meal, followed by a couple of orders of the tri- tip beef, the sea bass, and the rabbit, which are served family style with a whole host of accompaniments, including exceptional mashed potato that got rave reviews and deserves it's own mention. Several of the diners had never had rabbit, but they all tried it and it was a hit! I already have plans to come with some friends for an afternoon tea, and my husband and I will definitely be back for dinner and/or one of the dining events that Chef Adam hosts. Adam & Jenny, thank you for my birthday dinner one to remember!💖“

“GLENN FIXED MY FRIENDS SHOE AND WAS AMAZING MADE AMAZING DRINKS YASSSSS WE LOVE GLENN“

“I attended the Vegan Italian Dinner. It was wonderful! I greatly appreciate that the Front Street chef has made the effort to host these quarterly vegan dinner experiences. It is very clear that he put a lot of thought and effort into these special events. It was 4 courses, with wine pairing and the price was spectacular. Highly recommend!“

“Everything we ordered was so good! Very friendly, nice server and the cook! Genuinely happy eating there. A restaurant where you can eat carefully selected dishes at a reasonable price!“

“Spring pesto mafaldine had the perfect pesto pasta. The sauce was so delightful and we loved the pistachios. Atmosphere was so beautiful inside the restaurant! Great ceilings as well.

Nice menu options within a museum. Smaller portion sizes but perfect for a light lunch. Great as a meeting spot and break from seeing the wonderful art.“

“We had a good, not great meal here. For the price (which was considerable) we were definitely expecting a bit more. The cocktails were great and the service great, the food was a bit underwhelming. We went with the tasting menu instead of a la carte and found the dishes good, but not anything particularly special. They were very accommodating with an allergy which was very nice. I'd like to try the bar menu but probably don't need another dining room experience.“

“Great atmosphere, GREAT food selection and taste and service was awesome.....thanks Max!“

“Customer service was exceptional. Seating area was a bit small but everyone was so friendly and worked as a team. Honestly the best service I ever had. I went for restaurant week and ordered the shrimp creole. Omg I cleaned my plate and was still salivating over the idea of more when I got home. My partner ordered the crab soup and the salmon. Eyes rolled in the back of his head y’all. Everything was so well and for my first time they left a lasting impression. Would definitely dine here again. I’m just disappointed the shrimp creole isn’t on the regular menu.“

“My husband and I came here to celebrate our 5-year wedding anniversary. I have Celiac, so I need to adhere to a strict gluten free diet. Michael was extremely accommodating and even mentioned that he prepared the entire menu to be gluten free for all guests that evening since he was aware of my dietary needs ahead of time. Each dish surpassed the next in deliciousness. We're already planning our next visit. Absolutely fantastic meal, incredible service, intimate atmosphere. Can't recommend enough!“

“Cozy atmosphere reminiscent of a speak easy. Apps were delicious…broccoli and potatoes. Pizza was excellent….thin, crispy crust with great toppings. Definitely on our list of new spots to go.“

“Friendly Service and a great setting. Felt very laidback and comfortable there“

“Alice is the kind of restaurant that reminds you why dining out can be an art form. As a visitor to Philadelphia, the meal felt less like dinner and more like an invitation into a creative conversation between the kitchen, the ingredients, and the season itself.
What impressed me most was the restaurant's confidence. The menu is ambitious and inventive, yet never feels experimental for the sake of novelty. Each dish was thoughtful, balanced, and deeply satisfying, allowing exceptional ingredients to shine while still delivering moments of surprise. There is a clear point of view behind the food, but it is expressed with restraint and precision rather than excess.
In a city celebrated for its dining scene, it takes something special to stand out. Alice manages to do exactly that. Every course felt intentional, revealing a kitchen that is both imaginative and disciplined. There was always something unexpected to discover, which made the experience feel exciting from beginning to end.
The atmosphere complements the food perfectly—warm, welcoming, and intimate enough to encourage lingering over each course. It is rare to find a restaurant that feels both elevated and approachable, where serious culinary talent is matched by genuine hospitality.
Philadelphia is known for outstanding food, and Alice has distinguished itself as one of the most memorable and rewarding dining experiences I enjoyed during my visit. Long after returning home, I still find myself thinking about specific dishes, flavors, and moments from the evening—a testament to how thoughtfully every aspect of the experience is crafted.
For anyone visiting Philadelphia in search of a truly exceptional meal, Alice deserves a place at the very top of the list.“

“Best brunch in Philly! Everything is delicious!“

“Our group of six had an absolutely wonderful meal! Focaccia and salad appetizers were delicious as were our main courses - tile fish, pasta, vegetable lasagna, and lamb. We finished up with one of each dessert, sharing with great pleasure. Our waitress Shannon was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and efficient and made a special evening even better. Would highly recommended this terrific restaurant to anyone who loves great food!“

“Great service! Great Food! Wonderful service! My daughter and I enjoyed ourselves tremendously! Such a friendly and kind staff! If you need a bite to eat in a relaxing atmosphere, check it out!“

“Dope spot ....food great 👍🏾 nice vibes“

“Food was absolutely amazing! Drinks were great too! You won’t be disappointed!“

“Fun awesome food, service and atmosphere.“

“We traveled from Colorado and stumbled upon this place. We definitely lucked out. The atmosphere, the drinks, the people all deserve 5 stars or more. The bar tenders were fun to talk to and we felt right at home. They have great drink recommendations and my husband and I enjoyed the hour we spent just talking and hearing stories. Thank you for the good times“

“Killer breakfast specials. Everything on the menu seems well-thought out and presented. Yummy place.“

“Holy cow! Honest to God, the most amazing service, (we came for drinks and then for brunch) with actual personal service and thoughtfulness. Brunch was THE MOST AMAZING food I have ever tasted. I kept talking about Michelin stars because of the blend of flavors and presentation! We had Matia as a bartender one night then Brendan for brunch, honestly, it’s like old time service, with actual care for our happiness and pleasure. I cannot say enough about his place! You should check it out!“

“Awesome fool and interesting wall art. Gotchu some of that Sunday Brunch. Grab a Mamosa while your at it.“

“I had a fantastic visit to Yards Brewing Company, and it was one of the highlights of my time in Philadelphia. The brewery has a spacious, welcoming atmosphere that's perfect for relaxing with friends or enjoying a casual meal. I ordered a flight of beers to sample a few different styles along with a burger and fries. The beers were fresh and flavorful, and the food was just as impressive, with generous portions and great taste.

The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and happy to recommend beers based on my preferences. The only small downside was that it got pretty busy later in the evening, so there was a bit of a wait to order another round, but the lively atmosphere made the time pass quickly.

My tip for first-time visitors is to order a beer flight before choosing a full pint. If you're hungry, pair your drinks with one of the house sandwiches or burgers—they go together perfectly.

Overall, I had an excellent experience. Thank you to the entire team at Yards Brewing Company for the great beer, delicious food, and outstanding hospitality. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in Philadelphia.“

“Pretty atmosphere and good food“

“The food and service were outstanding and the ambiance was perfect for our Anniversary dinner.“

“The shrimp smd the crab devil eggs was delicious 😋“

“You will not be disappointed, from the ambiance, the friendly, professional service and the delicious food!“

“Where do I begin? Well let’s start with I had a change of plans and found this place through recommendations and felt like taking a night out on the town. I drove from Glassboro to here and I was greeted with great professionalism, the atmosphere was amazing, and the music was perfect. Now as my first time coming in, I had no idea what was good but my waitress Josephine L. made fantastic recommendations! I had the Steak which was fantastic and the cocktail she suggested, Risky Business, was a perfect blend between sweet and sour! In short honesty (and very nerdy talk) I wanted to feel like Bruce Wayne tonight and the staff did a very fantastic job of making me feel like it! Will definitely be returning!“
