“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”

“We had our rehearsal dinner for our wedding at The Windlass and couldn’t have been happier with our experience. We were having a Christmas wedding and the Windlass was decorated so nicely for the holidays! It fit the vibe perfectly! Donna helped us plan our dinner every step of the way, promptly helping us with any questions we had. The waitstaff was excellent, food was delicious, and the lakefront location was gorgeous! We highly recommend the Windlass for any dinner party you may be having or even just a night out. We’ve also eaten at the restaurant on a normal night and had a great experience as well!”

“Tonight me and my fiancé ordered dinner from here. I got wonton soup because i wasn't that hungry and ended up eating the whole container. Hands down the BEST wonton soup I’ve ever had. I even called to compliment them, and i don’t think I’ve ever done that. It was that good. My fiancé also said he agrees it’s the best Chinese food he’s ever had.”

“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 !”

“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!”

“Everything was amazing. The food was delicious-my husband said it was one of the BEST burgers he's had! The service was great and so were the cocktails! Overall a great experience.”

“We just moved to Sussex county and while we tried other ice cream shops nothing beats Jefferson Dairy. Their soft serve ice cream is the best and actually has flavor. It’s delicious!”

“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”

“I can’t thank the staff of The Jefferson House enough for putting together the most perfect day!

It was far my first experience there, but this time I was the bride. The amount of pressure their event team took off of my shoulders was incredible. Their level of support and attention to detail earned my trust instantly. From handmade bouquets for me and my bridesmaids, boutonnières for my dad and the ring bearer. We all now have a timeless keepsake! They made my rustic fall lakeside dream come true with the centerpieces and decor. Michelle and Boomer ROCKED! Patty took immaculate care of the room and Sue and John kept the drinks full and on point! Service was fantastic on all fronts.

We had our ceremony out in the beautifully decorated gazebo. They reserved the downstairs for us as well in case the weather didn’t hold up, and set up an hors d'oeuvres area for the bridal party during pictures! Chef Mario’s food was spectacular from start to finish. The prime rib was absolutely divine!
I ordered a plain white cake from a local bakery and Michelle their event coordinator added roses to it to go with the theme of the ball room.

I highly recommend this venue for any party. They absolutely blew me away. I was overwhelmingly grateful for every bit of time they put into planning and executing our dream wedding. When I was nervous about the order of events they were there assuring me we were on schedule. When I wasn’t sure what poses to do for our photos, the owner stepped right in and took charge resulting in some of my favorite shots. You can tell they truly care about events as if it were their own and I’m glad it seemed as though they had fun doing it!

Thank you again J House crew!❤️
Everything was PERFECT!🥰😍”

“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 😊”

“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!”

“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!”

“Food as always amazing twice in 1 week I am a fan”

“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”

“Olluco Restaurant offers an amazing Peruvian dining experience that you won’t want to miss. I had the Cuban sandwich, and I can confidently say it’s possibly the best I’ve ever had! Each bite was bursting with flavor—a true chef's kiss!

The food is exceptional, showcasing the rich and vibrant tastes of Peru. If you're looking for delicious and authentic Latin cuisine, make sure to visit Olluco Restaurant. Highly recommend!”

“I’m not vegan nor do I have any food allergies but if you do (or even if you don’t) this place is AMAZING!!! Support local business and come here!! You will NOT regret it. I’ve yet to have anything I didn’t like!! On a scale of 1-5, they’re a 10! 👍🏼”

“If you've never had duck I think this place is worth trying for the 1st time. It was very juicy and the curries were all very flavorful!
All in all this place is definitely worth adding to our usual rotation of restaurants.”

“The Great Wazu is the reason small businesses are the HEART of a community. I am a soon-to-be small business owner myself. I walked in this place tonight like I do every 1-2 weeks to get dinner. Sara behind the counter has gotten to know me and ALWAYS remembers my order. Tonight, she asked me what was new, and I told her I had been upset all day worrying about all the stuff I have on my plate right now getting my business ready to open. She was the sweetest. When I reached for my credit card, she told me my order was on her and gave me a hug and said, "You got this." It was one of the most human experiences I've ever had, and I just want everyone to know how special this place is. It's not just the sandwiches. It's the kindness.”

“When I walk into the store, it is clean and all the employees are very happy to be there and to be servicing their customers. Super job. Will continue to go back.”

“This is our favorite place… This is the side of meatballs and Ziti Norcina with homemade sausage. I have tried many different pasta dishes and love them all. It’s hard to choose when I get there. The service and staff are great. But the person that stands out to us, every time we go is Roy. He appreciates our business and is very friendly and outgoing. Every restaurant needs a Roy. Thanks, keep it up…”

“Fabulous”

“Francesca and Sophia are the best workers EVER! They gave me as much garlic parmesean sauce as I wanted (im addicted) and treated us with kindness, patience and the best service we could ask for.”

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

“Great food and exceptional, friendly service!!”

“Came in for dinner and was welcomed by the sweetest woman/waitress! Kiera was the sweetest waitress with amazing suggestions!! Can’t wait to to try the pastry place next time we are up!!”
