“If you’re looking for a hidden gem - no frills, I repeat, no frills type of place - Woods is your spot.Full disclosure: Nivea (the bartender) is my mom and has bartended alongside Tony and his wife (the owners) for more than 20 years. My mom loves the place so much, you can find her there on her off days. Tony is the man! One of a kind.The place is special - a perfect, dive bar with Portuguêse flair. Make sure you bring cash for the jukebox and pool table, and order an espresso with Sambuca.“
“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.“
“Everything was great about this place from the food to the service. Music was a bit loud though for a really small crowd. I went to watch some of the football game under the impression it was a sports bar. (Google may have gotten this wrong though). I would definitely come back, just not to watch a game. Haha. The pizza was great and a friend of mine said their wings were the best in town so I will definitely come to try the wings.“
“Came here for lunch on a Monday (around 1pm) and was able to walk in without needing reservation. We got the schnitzel (tried pork and chicken) and also the apple schtrudel, they were all delicious! The schnitzels also came with 3 sides, so it was a good amount of food even if you are very hungry. I also loved the vibe of this space. I will definitely be back for dinner!“
“Delicious BBQ in Industry City, Brooklyn, NY. The brisket and cornbread were too die for!! So good. The pastrami, thick cut bacon ? was very flavorful but super rich and filling, so please share!! It’s a self-serve place, so if you’re looking for table service you won’t get it. Be the food was very good.“
“Great food and fast and friendly service. The Owner, Shahid, provides a thorough and satisfactory customer service. Daily Specials were introduced recently and reasonably priced!Wheelchair accessibility: wheelchair accessible with plenty of seating available.“
“I love this place so, so much. The food is always consistently great, except for the one time one dish was a little overcooked and the bartender/wait staff surreptitiously removed it from our bill when my date and I had only a softly spoken conversation with each other about it (great service). The cocktails are great, too, like really great. The back heated/covered patio is super cute.There are about six really great bar/restaurants I've discovered in JC, and Dullboy is near the top of that last.“
“This is a great spot for a date or special occasion. Dinner is Pre-Fix and the menu changes seasonally. The dining areas are very inviting. The staff was very detail oriented and just enough but not on top of you. Basically the service is impeccable. As for the food everything is timed great and everything we ate was awesome. I thought I might leave hungry initially but that was not the case. Must go to spot for a romantic dinner“
“I have been to Medieval Times in Lyndhurst maybe 10 times in my life. Recently, I went with friends and family. The food seems to be better quality than ever. The show was great! The crowd was having fun, cheering on their knights, and icing on the cake was that my 5 year old daughter was crowned the Queen by our winning knight! So, it was the best visit.“
“Went on a Sunday & it was packed! For good reason. They had an a DJ playing great music, the food was good, the aesthetic is a VIBE. Only reason 4/5 was service. Our waiter wasn’t the friendliest/ attentive. Other than that- definitely going back!“
“A delight. While traveling in New York, we were looking for a good bagel and we were not disappointed. We had 3 different recipes and they were all very good. Generous and delicious, we can only recommend it. If you want to eat a good bagel, don't hesitate and go to them. Little extra, there is a park just behind with lots of benches, we ate there, it was really pleasant.“
“Immediately I knew this place was special. The ties to NYC and 9/11 run deep. I had a tuna melt which was open faced, and my husband had the Reuben. No pics because we ate everything before considering pictures. You will not be disappointed here. The service was great and the ambiance is special. If I'm ever in NYC again, I'll be back.“
“I’m hesitant to even write a review because I consider this place a true hidden gem! With so many options in the area I find myself forgetting about Turtle & Wolf until after my recent visit it sprang to the top of my list!I went for a birthday celebration and my friends and I shared a bunch of dishes. Everything was so well executed, the portions were generous and we just had such a lovely evening. Cannot pass on this adorable BYOB.“
“The food is amazing! The atmosphere is very chill and homey. The staff were super friendly and gave great recommendations!Had an Oxtail burger - juicy and great flavor! and the Zanzi fries with fried chicken ?And a grilled pound cake! that was recommended to us!Would definitely recommend it!“
“OMG! I don't even know where to start. I've this restaurant on my list for a few weeks now. I left work from New Jersey and found lots of parking spots. When I walked in I felt like I went to visit my Aunty. Shawnea opened the door and welcomed in. It's a small cozy restaurant, the place doesn't smell like food it smells like eucalyptus candles and the food OMG! This is the best soul food I've ever had. I got Mac and cheese, collard greens, candy yams, oxtail, sauteed shrimps, and the strawberry corn bread. I'm in heaven!!!! I'll definitely be back.“
“This place and employees are the best in the business! Chrystal and Rafael handled my sister bday party perfectly! Their service and dedication are beyond appreciated and outstanding! Thank you again for providing us with PERFECT service! Oh and the food was excellent too ?“
“Welcoming and inclusive atmosphere. Great place to bring kids. Food and drinks are right to individual taste! And the staff is super accommodating!Vegetarian options: Plenty of options for vegetarians. Great salads and bean BergerParking: Free parking lot across the streetKid-friendliness: Great family oriented restaurant. The staff are great with keeping the whole family happy ☺️“
“I ordered catering for my birthday event last weekend and the food was amazing! I’ve been a true fan of this restaurant ever since I’ve moved up to Bloomfield a few years ago and I always bring my friends and family to this restaurant. Whether it’s Brunch or dinner, the food never disappoints! Hence why I thought it was a good idea to ask for them to cater for my bday! Anthony and his team were very accommodating and brought out the rest of trays as the previous ones started emptying out which I greatly appreciated due to the lack of space we were given at the venue. We ordered the chicken empanadas, beef empanadas, broccoli rabe, mixed greens salad, Mac and cheese, chicken parm, eggplant parm, pasta vodka, meatballs and potato croquettes. All dishes were excellent and everyone was excited to pack the leftovers home as well! I also ordered catering from here back in February for my galentines party and the food was also a success during that time. I know I can count on them for providing exemplary food as well as service. Thank you, Anthony and his team for making my birthday memorable!“
“The BEST guacamole!Vegetarian options: I am vegan and can always find something delicious to eat at Sonoma Grill.My partner thoroughly enjoyed his short ribs.The table side guacamole is phenomenal!The cocktails are always amazing and the staff is always so friendly and accommodating. This is one of our favorite places to eat in Nutley.“
“Met up with my partner after a rehearsal she had down here (she’s the best!) anywho - tried to walk into red hook tavern without a res (like a coupla chumps!). They saidIt was gonna be a seven year wait til we could get the shrimp cocktail, so tail-between-our-legs we hobbled down Van Brunt (like adorable animated dogs from a 90’s Disney Movie) and poked our heads into TGFP (we are on an acronym basis at this point ;) - the vibes ? Immaculate. The food? Indescribable (( actually think the burger rivals RHT ?)), but I digress - unpretentious, creative menu, another gem of the neighborhood. Come here folks or I’ll come and get you !“
“My wife and I walked into LK for the first time and the hostess greeted us and said "sit anywhere you'd like".....what restaurant ever says that, we were hooked right away. We both shared a caesar salad, it was delicious. My wife ordered pasta with sausage. That too was delicious, I had the pasta with cherry tomatoes and crab meat, absolutely delicious. When our order came, we immediately got fresh pepper and before I could even ask for fresh cheese, a gentleman was waiting behind me with the cheese. I mean, c'mon the place has a great food, great service and a nice chill atmosphere. I think we just found our go-to restaurant.“
“My server was DonnetteAbsolutely loved the server. She was efficient and kind. I ordered the Nashville chicken and waffles. The flavor was good, but I do wish they'd have allowed the chicken more time to drain before adding the sauce. Everything else was great. Good music. Good food. Good atmosphere, and timely service.“
“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.“
“A gem in the neighbourhood. A friend and I were visiting Jersey City from South Africa and NDP was just down the road from our B&B. We had the most wonderful dinner there, with James, the owner explaining how he and his wife started the little restaurant. The food was exceptional and we were able to order a bottle of wine from a winery close by, which was delivered in minutes. Absolutely worth a visit!“
“We had early reservations tonight and we were the first diners. When we walked in the waitress told us that we had to be done in 90 minutes. My wife and I are fairly quick eaters. But when I hear something like that it can suck the enjoyment out of the dining experience.Putting that aside, we had great appetizers and main dishes. The deserts were not on par with the previous two courses.We have eaten at Bloom several times since the summer time and had enjoyed it. I don’t think that we will be rushing back.“
“Blew our minds away.Frequent all the places in the area (avenue, parkside etc). Thought this was still a diner. Went in while getting an oil change at mavis.It is clean, the food is fresh, the portions are big. Quickly became a new favorite.You DO have to pay for bread (saw some upset people by this) however once it is put on the table you quickly understand why. Multiple kinds of flaky, delicious bread and artisanal spreads. Not your average bread basket.Wish the ascetic was less diner but definitely an upgrade from before.“
“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.“
“When it comes to the perfect view, day or night, this is the place to reserve a table. I highly recommend making a reservation with a note attached; it significantly enhanced our experience, especially with one of the best views in the restaurant. The portions are perfect for sharing, ideal for large parties. Unfortunately, our server wasn't at his best, due to personal issues, but the rest of the staff excelled in compensating and accommodating our party. Special mention goes to Wanita, who not only served our table with enthusiasm but also packed up leftovers for us. She was super friendly and accommodating. Very promptly about packing up the food into to go boxes. As soon as I asked for the ETA of our desert she walked out with ours immediately.The GM, Mr. Hans Nielsen, swiftly assessed the situation and implemented the best solution. It wasn't about lowering the bill; it was about his understanding of our discomfort and reassurance of Chart House's standards. I expressed my concerns, but they don't overshadow this five-star experience. Mr. Nielsen's professionalism and commitment to customer satisfaction left a lasting impression. His proactive approach ensured that our dining experience remained enjoyable despite the initial setback. This is the type of leadership every customer deserves when eating out and we are grateful.Overall, Chart House exceeded expectations with its breathtaking views, delicious food, and exceptional service. I eagerly anticipate returning for another memorable dining experience.Parking: Pay the $20 for the valet it’s worth it“
“I came here for the first time a week ago for a friend's birthday and it was so good, I immediately made a reservation for a date night for the following week while still in the restaurant.The owner, who is lovely, charming and has a fun sense of humor, saw me seated at the table and waiting for my date to find parking. He came up to me and helped us find parking in a great spot. We very much appreciated the help. (note to self: leave yourself a little time to look before* your reservation lol)The servers there are knowledgeable about the menu and attentive to the patrons. We had the rigatoni special with pancetta and asparagus, short ribs (to die for) as well as the apple tart with ice cream and spiced chocolate mousse and everything was well seasoned, fresh and delicious. I look forward to returning and suggesting this restaurant to friends.“
“Where do I begin. Our visit to the Shannon Rose was outstanding. From the nice young lady at the door to our server Edgar who went above and beyond to make our visit memorable. When we arrived Trivia was going on, and it was such a delight watching everyone participating in the game. We arrived wanting drinks to end the night, and The Shannon Rose did night disappoint. Our server Edgar was very kind, and very knowledgeable about what we should order, plus very handsome. Kudos to the bartender the drinks were delish!!!! We will DEFINITELY go back for the Trivia Tuesday and for dinner and drinks. What a fun way to end the evening. I hope that the next visit will be as enjoyable as the last one. We hope to have Edgar as our server. Thank you..Thank you.. Thank you!Parking: Tons of parking space. There are extra spaces at the Target parking lot.“
“Jody's Club Forest is the best! I went for lunch with my special needs students and we were taken care of so well. The staff is super friendly and the food was delicious. It is wheelchair accessible and has such a comfortable atmosphere. I will definitely be back!“
“One of the best taco places In NJ right after you cross the Verrazano Bridge We were on our way back to VA, we were craving some authentic Mexican food and homemade guacamole which I love so much We didn't choose wrong. The tacos were so good the customer service was excellent I couldn't say more about the owner Shea was very nice to my kids She even gives them free candy Next time we go back to NY, we are coming back again and trying the Birria I recommend this place“
“Almost hidden on a small street in Belleville, Me & Tommy's looks like someone's house from the outside. Once inside, you are immediately treated as a guest in a friend's home. We received such a warm welcome, that my husband asked if I knew the staff. That level of service continued throughout the entire meal. I can't remember the last time I experienced such outstanding service. The dining area is quite small, and they are busy all night. I would most definitely call for a reservation in advance. The atmosphere is lively and boisterous. Not meant for a quiet romantic evening. Kinda like a loud Sunday family dinner vibe. For food: Smothered Rice Balls in Vodka Sauce, Stuffed Cubanelle Peppers, Pasta Volognese, and Artichoke Chicken. For me, the Rice Balls were my favorite dish. Generously portioned, the rice balls are a cheesy carb delight. The famous vodka sauce was creamy and plentiful. Highly recommend. The Stuffed Peppers were two very large, beautiful cubanelles (my personal fav pepper). My husband loved the stuffing, while I did think it was a touch over seasoned. The Volognese- cross btw vodka and bolognese) was enormous! It does lean more to the bolognese, but was tasty nonetheless. My Chicken Artichoke special consisted of three chicken breasts with mozzarella and artichoke hearts in a white wine lemon sauce over linguine. This was a very tasty and satisfying dish, and -you guessed it- generous. We shared an Affogatto with Bailey's liqueur for dessert which was a perfect end to the meal. Even my espresso was delicious. The prices are very reasonable for the portion sizes. We took home enough left overs for another meal! We will most definitely return.“
“I absolutely love this place! From the food, atmosphere and customer service. I have used them twice to cater my baby shower and a recent birthday party. Zinna the owner is super sweet, professional, punctual. She truly wants the customer to be happy and checks in with you. My family and friends loved the food and I will always use them in the future.“
“Food is fantastic and customer service is amazing. If you’re in the area you need to definitely drop by and grab a byte. They have a variety of things and they can custom anything you desire. Also LEO discount are offered which is a plus!“
“Andrew and GTK, have been a wonderful addition to Hoboken, providing a variety of food options. Our loyalty to them extends back to their days in Jersey City. Today, our regular order was accompanied by a complimentary dessert, and we express gratitude to Andrew and his team. We're avid supporters and recommend everyone to experience their delicious food!“
“Went for dinner and had a great time. Ordered a cocktail that was similar to a Moscow Mule which was nice and refreshing. We had the Deviled Eggs and Sticky wings which were both delicious. For our main, the Pasta Ragu, Broccolini and Truffle Waffle fries - all delicious. The servers seemed a bit too busy and we had to look for them a few times but I'd definitely recommend it for a nice casual dinner.“
“Lovely little place. We tend to go with a party of 6 to 8 and never ever felt rushed or ignored. The team is nothing but welcoming. We love the menu the service and ambiance. Great job staying reasonable in price compared to NYC. Your facility is lovely. Also, the drink menu is high quality wines and whiskeys and ports. Also good for couples.“
“The owner is welcoming the wings fried hard pack with favor. He let us sample the house sangria which was delicious. This spot doesn’t miss a beat with the menu options. Rocket fuel is definitely a hidden gem and highly recommended for anyone that what to try new original favors. Last but not least stand of experience is was when I told the owner I was feeling the teriyaki sauce the cook in real time fix the recipe to my personal liking, now I’m forever a customer.“
“The chicken is hit or miss, which for a rotisserie takeout place is not really acceptable. The sides are always really good, but the real gem here is the gyro and seasoned fries. The service is awful though. Guy at the counter had no greeting, just played on his phone. Didn't use gloves when he handled my food (people use their phones while on the toilette so would been nice to use gloves or wash hands). He didn't say thank you, just handed it to me in cold silence. My advice would be to hire someone who can at least pretend that they want to be there and act like they appreciate your business. With so many great take out places around, this one is unfortunately an easy pass for now on.*** UPDATE *** Excellent management. Clearly strives to fix flaws and makes things right. Employee referred to was trained. Most companies would never take any action, so very impressive. Also, company website offers 10% discount on all orders. Never realized this!“
“In my eyes shake shack can do no wrong, but the service here was lovely. You don’t expect anyone to care once you get your food at a take out//tray place like this but Patrick not only brought our food out but checked on us & cleared our table as we were heading out. Thanks shake shack.“
“We came in today for a special treat and boy, did we get one! We had the pleasure of sitting in Tati’s section this morning. Our food arrived timely and well-prepared. We were given hot water for our silverware immediately. As always, the catfish from off the soul food menu was hittin. Tati was super attentive to our needs. Great service and food.“
“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.“
“My friend and i were just looking for a cigar bar but i was also a little hungry. Surprisingly i had arguably the best filet mignon of my life here. it was so good. I shared a bit with the others at my table and they were in complete agreement. they had the salmon and was also very satisfied with it. I tap the guests at the table across from us who ordered the largest rack of ribs ever and i asked if that was good too and they said they order it every week. It's so good and falls of the bone. I had to meet the chef, Mike, just to tell him how impressed i was.“
“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.“
“Ahh! Such a beautiful date night at Cellar 335. Advance reservations are necessary to ensure that you get a table. We went on a Saturday night and the place was packed. The restaurant is in the basement and has a speakeasy vibe to it.The food and the drinks were unique and delicious. For food, we tried the avocado fried rice (customized without egg), the crispy tofu bao buns and the spicy cornbread - the portion sizes were great too. For drinks we had Shipwrecked (the best!), Pole star and a spicy drink. They did not have many of the cocktails on the menu so best check with them before you decide on one. Definitely ask for the dessert menu - we tried the passion fruit panna cotta and it was the best way to end the meal!Our hostess, Alli was very nice and friendly. This restaurant is expensive, but definitely worth a visit for the lovely ambience and the great food/drinks.Vegetarian options: There are some great vegetarian options available and a few others can be customised and be made vegetarian.“
“Really nice spot in Rahway! You would not know it by looking at the outside building, but inside it is super cute. Lovely aesthetic. Cocktails are great! Food was tasty. The only negative was the tap water tasted very odd. So I recommend you take the waitress up on the sparking or still water.“
“Finally had the chance to stumble on in to The Greeks in Kearny, NJ today for what some people consider the best Jersey Meat/Egg/Cheese in the state!! I don’t care to argue over the name of it. Call it pork roll, call it Taylor ham, call it your aunt sally…I say Jersey Meat to avoid the argument.This may or may not be the best one I’ve had, but it’s absolutely in the conversation. 7 slices of controversy with two eggs and plenty of cheese on a delicious NJ fresh Kaiser roll. This sandwich is exactly $10 and this establishment is cash only. I am perfectly okay paying $10 for this with that much protein going on.The Greeks - Didn’t Suck! ???“
“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.“
“I met a couple of my old coworkers there December 20th after 4 years. I wanted to go to a highly rated family-run place and this establishment didn't disappoint. The burgers, meatloaf and pita wraps were excellent. The owner Vinnie greeted us and seated us, then came by to chat with us. The server was attentive and seemed to like her job. About a 15 - 20 minute walk from the Harrison PATH station. I will be making future visits there with old collegues.“
