Restaurants near Jefferson

“I have had two bridal showers at Portofino in Oak Ridge, and not only did everyone love the food, but Nancy and the entire staff is outstanding. They go above and beyond to help you in any capacity that they can. I highly recommend Portofino either for lunch, dinner or any kind of event you have whether it is big or small. You can't go wrong with Portofino, I can't say enough great things about the staff and restaurant!”

“Came for dinner with another couple. The tapas eggplant was delicious, light and flavorful. Just lovely. We had two burgers and two steaks. All delicious and perfectly cooked. Service was excellent and the restaurant is beautiful, however, there is a huge bar in the middle of the restaurant. Which normally would not be an issue but this evening four young women were “working” the older men sitting at the bar. It became clear as the evening progressed that this was going on. None of us could believe what was happening right next to our table!! As the targeted men left the bar the young women quickly moved on to their next victims. It was all very obvious and pretty repulsive. Such a shame to have this type of thing happening in a lovely restaurant. I would hope management will be alerted by the bartenders that their establishment has become prey for this type of behavior. Quite unsettling.”

“Ordered the margarita pizza and it was horrible. Never had raw garlic on a pizza and the tomato was just clumped on and not even cut open. It was also burned and I ended up throwing it away. What a waste of 16. - never again”

“First time here been to the liquor store .The food was amazing the service was great . The atmosphere was great real friendly vibe . We will definitely be back !”

“This is one of the best Chinese restaurants in the area. The food is always hot, fresh, and delicious. The price is great and the portions seem generous. The people are always polite and working hard cranking out orders.”

“Little Nicki’s was wonderful. The food was delicious and presentation was beautiful…wonderful atmosphere very friendly. Victoria gave us great service. And the owner Dom was delightful. Will be back real soon…”

“Best pizza around! I used to work at an award winning pizza place and since moving to Oak Ridge have not found pizza that I love until Pintos. (I'm picky) BUT not only is the pizza good but the guy (who I think is the owner) making the pizzas is SO friendly. Always has a smile and makes sure to say hello and goodbye to everyone.”

“This place has old-style class and it’s reminiscent of “The Freeze” that I grew up with. The flavors are delicious and the service was good. There was no line when I got there. Parking was easy.

My only problem is with the texture of the chocolate malt milkshake I got. It happens over and over when a place makes a malt with soft-serve ice cream. The whole thing takes on a homogenized version of itself like it’s melted. Why not dip a few scoops of the good stuff and make a real malt (the reason is the cost of the ice cream). But I would pay more if it didn’t sit in my gut and bloat.

But, four stars. Thanks for a snack.”

“Ordered one their meals for take out. Great service, great price and great food! Will do again when they have something that looks good to us!”

“Its a great restaurant. I like the exterior and the location of the place right off the lake. The waitress was great. She was very attentive and friendly to my friend and I. One thing to add is you can't spend too long at the restaurant if they other reservations. I definitely would recommend coming here.”

“My first time here and the food was great! The atmosphere inside is really nice and they play good music. The mushroom ravioli, charcuterie and lamb lollipop were all fantastic! We went at night on a cold day; but, we plan to go back in the summer or maybe lunch to catch views of the lake. I would definitely recommend!”

“I always order through the app for counter pickup and there's only been a couple occasions where I had to wait an extra couple minutes but everyone is always so kind there I never mind 😊”

“After reviewing some of the bad reviews I noticed that most of them are a year or older. I have eat in and take out at this location several times and the food is always tasty hot and fresh. The decor is beautiful and love the fireplace aroma. It's not very common to find an establishment this clean and neat. Definitely coming back love their lunch specials”

“The atmosphere was great, and the service we received was very good. However, the waiter brought the check immediately after we finished our meal. We were planning to stay a bit longer and have something to drink, so we didn’t like that and decided not to stay any further. Other than that, everything was lovely.”

“Great experience, good music , good vibes ! Eddie the bartender was amazing. Can’t wait til it’s warmer to go back”

“Service by Abdul was great!”

“Absolutely the best Jamaican food around. I would say on par with Scotchies in Jamaica. Wonderful Caribbean vibe. We ordered a mix for the table and not one dish disappointed. Fall off bone ribs. Great jerk sauce and hot as hell boda pepper sauce”

“We had our small wedding at Andre's this past weekend, and I am still in awe of how fantastic the event was. Tracey is an all-star. From coordinating calls, decorating our table, marrying us, to keeping us on schedule. Andre had our whole group raving about how great the food was. From the appetizers to the cake, we really couldn't have asked for better. On top of it all, the location is STUNNING! The staff helping to serve us were so friendly and pleasant and together they all helped make sure our wedding day was the best day of our life. I can't recommend Andre's enough, and we will certainly be returning for a meal!”

“Everything was amazing! We stood up and applauded the chief! A must go to for a fabulous meal!”

“Absolutely the best takeout, in fact, the best restaurant food we've had in ages! Fall-off-the-bone, delectable ribs. Creamy mac n cheese. Yummy sweet potato fries. Excellent empanada with beef brisket. You can tell everything was made with care, love and pride. We highly recommend & will go again.”

“Wow so good. First of all, the place is so clean and the staff is friendly. More importantly, the food is amazing. The Tom Yum soup was outstanding! I highly recommend this place!”

“Beautiful decor on the inside. Restaurant gets busy so make reservation just in case! Had dinner Monday night and Ashley was amazing. The sake warrior is like a limey summer refresher. Just with a little twist. Really good! Shrimp dumplings are so bomb, as well as the sesame chicken and glass noodle. Great service.”

“I don't get Crumbl much however when I do, ro away is my go to location! I haven't had a bad experience and the cookies have been consistent. From delivery or pickup, the cookies are on point !”

“The food here is PERFECT!! We had such a wonderful meal on our first night at Lake Hopatcong that we wanted to come back a second night. I wish we had because no where else was as good as Byram Bay. The pierogies, chicken and seafood were all fantastic. I didn’t see that there is a water view here but honestly it’s not even worth going to the water view places that have sub par food when you can come here and have the best meal.”

“I had a fantastic experience at HANCOOK K-BBQ & TOFU SOUP. The Korean food here was surprisingly good, with authentic flavors and great execution. I especially enjoyed the 돌솥비빔밥 (dolsot bibimbap)—served piping hot and full of flavor.

The owners were incredibly kind and welcoming, adding a personal warmth to the entire dining experience. It’s clear they take pride in their food and service.

Whether you're a fan of Korean cuisine or just trying it for the first time, HANCOOK is a hidden gem worth visiting. I’ll definitely be back!”

“Great food and exceptional, friendly service!!”

“love their flavors. this is high quality artisanal gelato. it's the best in miles, by far.”

“Very cool spot. Interesting, creative menu, really nice array of house cocktails which are also creative. Good energy, good music, and the layout works really well - the bar area has its own vibe and good seating options, from booths to hightops. It's fun!”

“great food friendly staff!”
