Restaurants in Highland Park

“los taquitos de birria más ricos que he probado!!!”

“We’ve become “regulars” at this wonderful restaurant, soon after they became kosher. We visit regularly, and get takeout pretty often. The food is great! It’s consistent and just SO tasty. And the staff… Absolutely terrific!!!”

“very good food and polite and professional 👌”

“Was impressed with the decor, service and food. The BBQ burger was cooked perfectly! Made with fresh meat (not frozen formed patty) - not sure whst the English would be but I know it in Yiddish as “hockfleish.” The BBQ sauce added to the taste of the meat without being overpowering and the onion, pickle, lettuce and the challah bun were all extremely fresh. Looking forward to coming back snd trying the other choices!”

“I got a tiramisu latte and it was 10/10. Smooth, can taste the coffee but not bitter and perfect amount of sweetness. Well balanced. Staff is nice and welcoming. Appreciate the lactaid option. Nice ambiance.”

“A Greek experience away from home. All are super authentic from the deserts to the coffee.”

“I went to this cafe for the first time with my friends and I found it very enjoyable. The poke bowls and tea are delicious although it can be a bit pricey. They have 3 ordering stations and private seating places which are perfect for studying but a bit dark lowkey. They also have free water which is a blessing. Parking is also easy to find🙏.”

“Great Mexican dishes with nice vegetarian selections”

“Great mixed black bean burger”

“Nice restaurant with a lot of specialties dishes that would be perfect for dinner with big group to share. This restaurant serve house tea which is a big plus. The meat patty is delicious. The rice dishes are okay, looking forward to try more specialties dishes.”

“Great my favorite place to get the Boba tea”

“I love the chicken and broccoli! I always order the lunch special they really cool with the heart I'm always satisfied. I love it here!Also the service is always great. They always greet me and are super kind.”

“We live in Highland Park and have been ordering from DeeDee's since they opened! We've had them cater our kids' birthdays and have tried almost everything on the menu over the last year. Great pizza, and the chicken caesar cutlet sandwich is one of the best sandwiches in the state. Amazing service always as well!”

“Been there before,like the vibes. They the World Cup on many this
The service was quick, the bartender tried to replicate a drink that was clearly a frozen one, but didn't have a blender. It was still tasty. The music was great. It was melo crowd, nothing crazy. Will return again with a blender.”

“First time back since 1973! Even better than I remember it. California cheese burger, fries and a soda. Served up in about 3 or 4 minutes, hot and fresh. I will not wait another 50 years to go back! LOL”

“First time at Mordy’s Bakery and I’m impressed! Everything was so fresh, especially the chocolate croissant. The cheese Danish was delicious and very filling. Great prices and a convenient spot in the heart of Highland Park. Definitely coming back!”

“For those that know me, there has been a legend I’ve spoken of many times. Once upon a time, there was a place which provided me with some of my best culinary memories ever. This legendary place was called Mr. Pi’s Sushi Restaurant in Metuchen, NJ. Almost ten years of amazing experiences I had accumulated there. However, one day this place of legend had eventually relocated and, in the years that followed, I spoke of, and daydreamed of, this legendary place quite often. Then, over a decade later, I accidentally find out that they have relocated back to the area near me. My sheer joy, the smile from ear to ear, the absolute excitement, was so intense it was practically palpable. Speaking of palpable… in their journey before returning to Middlesex County, in Highland Park this time around, they have made their menu even BETTER, which seems almost impossible for a place so legendary, but it’s true. They are the best version of themselves they’ve EVER been! If sushi restaurants have a glow up era, they most definitely are at the summit of it, and will most certainly remain there, as legends do. Welcome to Mr. Pi’s 3.0! Placing a restaurant into legendary status is neither something I do easily, haphazardly nor willy nilly. For, you see, I have quite literally tried sushi all over the world. I’ve had sushi in Europe, the UK, the South Pacific, Australia, Malaysia, Hong Kong, and yes, Japan. I’ve had sushi in (almost) every one of the 50 states, except for those states in which I just didn’t feel like risking my health by trying the sushi. Of all these places I’ve been to, all over the world, NOWHERE compares to Mr. Pi’s! They are the truest of diamonds, valuable beyond imagination! In an area of NJ where you can barely walk a block without finding yet another sushi restaurant, Mr. Pi’s OUTSHINES every single one of them, by far! What makes a place so legendary? Their food, first and foremost, is TOP TIER, ALWAYS FRESH, HIGH QUALITY, and BEAUTIFULLY, quite STUNNINGLY, PLATED! Great food alone, although amazing, does not grant legendary status. This next part is where many restaurants sadly fall short these days. SERVICE and HOSPITALITY are an art form that not many have mastered the way owner Jeannette and Sushi Maestro Pi have perfected it. They welcome each and every guest with the warmest of greetings, most genuine of smiles, and truly heartfelt interests in giving their customers a PREMIUM experience. How they are able to remember so many people by name is a talent so challenging it’s practically pure magic in and of itself. After even just a second visit, you will already feel like you are home when you dine here. Our server, Cindy, made sure we always had hot tea in our pot, drinks in our glasses, and our every need anticipated and catered to. She truly excelled in her attention to all the details of our dining experience! The atmosphere is a delight, with so much space that they have multiple dining areas and a banquet room that could easily accommodate 50, possibly even 75, people. They also have (a new territory for Pi’s), a full bar with a variety live music certain nights of the week. In this massive space which was once occupied by a Charlie Brown’s of decent proportions, they have managed to retain all the charm embodied in the sushi restaurants of their prior incarnations. Plenty of space, comfy seating, delightful decor, and a bar as well, make this yet another amazing quality this legend has taken on! Of course, one can not dub a restaurant a legend without discussing the food. In the only three times I’ve been in since discovering it’s reemergence locally, I have been dazzled by the displays of sushi some plated with dazzling miniature ice sculptures, as they’ve floated by my table onwards to their destination where I am sure there were patrons in absolute delight. On the menu you can find many of the usual items found in sushi restaurants, but there is quite a list of items that you will find only at Pi’s. Their special rolls have taken creativity to a new level of transcendence. In additi”

“Penstock is great. Their tea is awesome and it always hits the spot. Also, the staff is very helpful and down to Earth.”

“Food is always delicious! We always order the Peking Duck ahead of time. We had the delicious duck, skillet fish, lotus root, shrimp fried rice, and dan dan noodles. Everything was cooked to our liking, not too spicy! BYOB. We had a 6:30 reservation, every table was filled on a Friday night. The duck is better than at Peking Duck NYC. Servers are really nice. Thank you!”

“We had lunch at the new restaurant in Highland Park. We had the falafel plate which had great flavor and was very filling. My sister had a slice of pizza which she said was really good. The new place is a vast improvement over the old store in East Brunswick.”

“There are so many beautiful varied items ideal for gifts for any age and all items that you purchase sustain the persons who make these very unique products. Please support Global Grace Marketplace and Cafe for amazing gift items and out-of-this- world delicious and nutricious food!!! Marcia Marcal Persiano”

“A pleasant atmosphere, with authentic Mexican cuisine is 🔥 today was my first time visiting, and this has instantly become my regular place to eat. Appreciation and gratitude.”

“Nice family owned ice cream parlor. The owners are very nice people, and I am glad to support them.
I usually go for the soft serve, which is quite good. There can be a wait during peak hours, but the line moves fast. Outdoor seating only.
Closed off season”

“This restaurant has a great flavor that truly captures the essence of Hunan cuisine. The seating is spacious, making it a comfortable spot for gatherings with family and friends.”

“This kosher restaurant serves very good food, with a focus on quality ingredients and careful preparation. While the portions may be a bit smaller than expected, the flavors are complex and satisfying. A bit more noodles would add some welcome heft to the dish. The atmosphere is equally impressive, with a cozy and intimate setting that makes it perfect for special occasions.”

“If we could, we would give Isaka Midori 10 stars! ⭐️ This is one of our favourite restaurants, and it's always worth travelling from Brisbane to experience their food. And I say experience because every bite is an explosion of different tastes. We stopped eating meat seven years ago, and it is amazing to see how their chef transforms plant-based food into something that looks and feels so much like fish. And the staff are wonderful too; always friendly, calm and professional. They make you feel welcome from the moment you arrive. The presentation, flavours and textures are incredible. This is not just food — this is art. ❤️ Arigatou gozaimasu! 🙏”

“Every time I’ve visited 418 Burgers it’s been a happy experience. The food is fresh & delicious & the staff is very courteous. 100% would recommend.”

“It’s a no frills type place that good for a simple meal.

The waitress covered the whole restaurant, took order, served food, and the billing.

The food was delicious and the portions were great.

Strongly recommend the northeastern Chinese mixed vegetables dish.”

“Go to chinese takeout place, always very kind and friendly staff and family owned business. Food is always delicious and made right. Have picked up for years without issue and they are always respectful and offer for us to take a free 2 liter soda”

“Un excelente servicio y los desayunos 🧇 💯”

“I love going to Park Deli. The sandwiches are always a great size, with so many options to make it your own and get great food. If you don’t mind spending a little bit more for quality lunch/dinner, this is the place to be. They even have seating inside! Highly recommend the chicken parm sub or the lawyers, my go-tos!

Parking: Lots of spacious parking behind the store.”

“One of the last good old school bars. Food is great. Drink is cold, delicious, and prompt. Prices are better. Barkeep and guests are awesome. If you want to complain about using a private business' parking lot to spend money at another, you should think first before talking. The world is going down hill and this is a mountain.”
