“I came here for a thanksgiving lunch with the company I work for, I must say the food is amazing, great customer service the waitress was welcoming, and the chef really put effort into the food.”

“Derek and Emily were very helpful in my order
They know how to cook a brother up
5/5 service 5/5 food
They make the new Qdoba on the 1-9 all the more better shoutout to them and the new Qdoba spot”

“Excelente comida, fui un día por que andaba cerca pero ahora aunque esté largo busco hacer ruta por ahí. Muy buena comida y excelente servicio.”

“Service and every dishes other than sushi was great! However, I really have to give the sushi rice they used and sushi selection limitation a comment because the rice used is not for sushi. Fish is really fresh, but rice is hard to chew or swallow. And selection for sushi is quite limited. The old menu they have has scallop and squid, none of that is actually selling any more. There’s basic fish sushi and all types of rolls tho which is nice, but rice really makes me hard to enjoy them. Despite all that, ither food choice is various from cold dish to hot fried rice to fruits and dessert. In general it is worth to try”

“I love this place so much. I just ordered a booster smoothie and a rotisserie. Chicken flatbread sandwich and it was amazing! The beautiful woman behind the counter, who made it, made it with some love. I'm definitely coming back whether it's either to see her. Eat that amazing sandwich and have another one of those amazing smoothies.”

“Had the best dinner with my girlfriends and chef Alex Diaz was so friendly and made us feel so special! Highly recommended the fungi pasta and the salmon poppers! And for dessert the creme brulee and grandma's cookies!”

“Took my two year old here for dinner and it was great! Everyone was very friendly and professional. The food was excellent! We got a pizza and the penne vodka. The ambience was awesome. 90s hip-hop played all night.”

“Seriously I lived in Linden for 12 years and tried many Chinese food restaurants...this place is amazing. I am addicted to their sesame seed chicken with brown rice and broccoli. I always used to order it from them. The owner she is extremely friendly. I moved from Linden New Jersey to Maryland in 2021. I seriously miss this place because my Chinese food places down here can't even compare to the way that she cooked the food. I am seriously missing Main Moon. Don't take this restaurant for granted They know how to cook Chinese food.”

“HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! We use Primavera's frequently to feed our business employees. 10/10 recommend their pizza and delivery service. Deliveries are always on time, and the pizza is perfection. Dough is nice and soft, but a "great undercarriage". No other pizza place in the area is comparable. Dave Portnoy would probably rate it a 7.5, but it is a solid 9.5 in my book. All in all, solid pizza.”

“Great place for Haitian food 👏🌺”

“I always enjoy the food and atmosphere at Flaming Grill. The service is exceptional the wait time is minimal in comparison with other restaurants. I’ve been going there since 2015 and the food is extraordinary.”

“Muy buena atención y servicio muchas gracias por todo muy recomendable 👍”

“Decided to try a new location, and I'm happy I did! Came here so far on two occasions once in the morning time an once on a late evening, and both times was quick in & out, the place is super clean, the Staff is very nice. This will now be my favorite spot, because OMG the donuts are super fresh ??? & they did my frozen coffee ? with whip cream & carmel drip on point ?!! Will Definitely becoming back!”

“This classic place is the place to go when ever you want something fast to go, but be careful eating in the parking lot, because the tow guy will try to hook your car while your in it lol.”

“Freddy's is awesome. Best burgers in NJ.”

“This review is for the Linden location. So happy to have them in town. Staff is very friendly and accommodating and the food is delicious!!”

“Delicious empanadas, bread and pastry. They have vegan and vegetarian healthy options as well. ❤️”

“Every time I come here the food is great...Thanks Rich.”

“This is a specialty Polish market and I went there specifically to get a dish for Christmas Eve. (It was my first time there, because I was looking for a certain dish) The line for their fresh cut meats & cold cuts was the entire length of the store, so it must be good. It is not a dine-in place. The store looked well-kept & clean. The refrigerated cases were shining and full. I will certainly return in the future.”

“Vibe seemed great but I guess if you aren't a regular its like you dont exist here lol. Sat for 30-45 minutes before anyone even said anything. Ill give it another try based on the vibe and the older crowd.”

“Loved the food, the staff and cozy feel inside. Its pick your food from a selection of ready made delicious spanish food... so if ure in a little rush, this is perfect.”

“it's a cool treat for my colleagues”

“One day my friend was driving, and he accidentally had reversed into someone's garage door. As we didn't know what to do, we looked up some garage door company, one that came up was Genes Garage Door. Jacob was there promptly to assess the damage and fix the problem. More than pleasant to work with. Would recommend for any garage or door emergencies.”

“Had a sausage parm and a chicken parm today was delicious .”

“Lovely authentic Italian restaurant:) great variety and good quality!”

“Best food around! Highly recommend! 😋😋”

“Classic place for eating in a quite place in the middle of city

Vegetarian options: Ask the person on counter to prepare a vegetarian dish, because they don’t have menu.
Most of the bakery items contains eggs, so ask if you try to avoid.”

“The food is amazing , I’ve tried many Peruvian spots in the Elizabeth / linden / Rahway areas and this place has the best of them all , great flavor to the food the portions are big and it’s affordable , only bad side is that they never answer the phone which is a huge issue because you have to go in person to order which is very time consuming. You sometimes have to call 10 times to get someone to pick up”

“It was amazing and the service was fast”

“Great bread conceived in the ovens in the heart of staten island. This construct is a monument for the ambitious talents and work ethic of italian americans in staten island.”

“Omg first time I ordered there I was google it and I found this place close to my job and I ordered omg the food was perfect I ordered chicken wings with pork fried rice also the lady in the front desk was nice and helpful and the place was really clean I like that 10/10”

“Shakes are great here, service person was exceptional. They went out of their way to make what I wanted. The only downside here is that they don't have the "Mountain Man" Smoothie like other locations.”

“Very cozy place, delicious food, they serve you a lot for little money, the staff is very friendly and they serve you with care, I recommend it. They prepare the chicharrón delicious.”

“Great and friendly service”

“George Deli is a great store, so much like the stores we had in yesteryear. George is friendly, warm and family oriented. The store is clean and not over price. I feel very comfortable shopping there and having small conversations. May God continue to bless him.”

“I can't begin to explain how great the food was here.

I had a quesadilla de champiñones (mushroom quesadilla) and I can say it was the most authentic I've had outside Mexico.

My server, the daughter of the owners, was so kind and welcoming.

Upon asking for a chile asado (toreado), I was given one without hesitation.

All their salsas are homemade, no bottled salsa :)

To end the review, their bathroom was impeccably clean and well maintained.

I'll be back again! I highly recommend you visit this hidden gem and support the younger sister by buying her handmade crafts.”

“First time here and we loved the food ? we are from NY and have been trying different Chinese food from NJ and nothing was good enough until now. We are very pleased. We are definitely coming back.”

“I decided to go try the wings here and i was not disappointed at all. The chicken was done well, the sauce was really good and flavorful, there were so many sauces to choose from. The fries were fresh and crispy, the service was great, everyone was so pleasant, the owner came out to see how I was doing, the place and restroom was really clean. I will definitely recommend this place to eat at.”

“I just wanted to thank Anthony from Bella Gina’s for the incredible job he did catering our party July 31-last Saturday.. His patience and suggestions regarding the menu selections were amazing. We were catering a party for about 55 people and no matter how many questions I had and how busy he was he never rushed me and took the time that was needed to make me feel comfortable and answer everything! Now the really important part…. The FOOD! Oh my god- the food was beyond incredible. Everything was so delicious that I am still getting texts, messages, and calls about how amazing the food was. We had several Italian people at the party and they said it was the best Italian food they have had. They said the eggplant parmigiana was to die for, was the exact words! We are beyond thankful to Bella Gina’s for making our party the success it was and for creating the most delicious food for us and our guests. I highly recommend Bella Gina’s for any catering needs you might have! I know 100 percent that you will be as happy as we were! Thank you so much again Anthony for everything! You are beyond amazing!”

“Excelente service, delicious food, delectable pastries and exquisite cakes! 👍👍👍👍”

“I love the food from here. Usually I get the shrimp and broccoli, hunan chicken and egg rolls BUT the lo mein and chop suey are completely inedible. I literally had to throw them both away after one bite. So I’ll just stick to what I usually eat from now on.”

“The place was busy however I was a walk-in and didn’t take long at all. I opted for the chicken sandwich however, didn’t ask for deluxe so without lettuce or pickles. Then I tried the grilled chicken nuggets. Not crazy about them, I should have opted for fried. Hardly any taste on the grilled nuggets. Live and learn. Next time back to regular nuggets.”

“Talk about finding a gem while just doing your job! Just from the pictures outside I had to pull over and let my curiosity get the best of me.
The prices more than fair.
The taste, as if my great grandmother was the one who baked the Conchas
The overall service exactly what you expect... AMAZING.”

“My favorite place to order from. Chicken and Broccoli for the win!! They are so friendly and the food is very delicious and always steaming hot fresh off the stove! I also love that this place is family owned. The owners children are always so polite when speaking to customers, their manners are outstanding! The owners are amazing people as well. They are very personable and never forget to ask about my 4 yr old son when I’m picking up my takeout. They definitely stand out from the rest of any ordinary Chinese food restaurant. Keep up the amazing work.

Vegetarian options: Can get all options without meat. Sauces are very tasty no meat needed with entrees

Parking: Street parking and parking across street at Wells Fargo bank (shhhh) ?”

“A lot of food. If you don' t like spicy food don't get any meat or fish. You can get legume.That's why I gave 4 stars. If you love spicy food the best ?. They serve breakfast and the "mais" is delicious.”

“Acho que não estamos falando da mesma.Meson Tropical!! Essa ficava em Vila Isabel no Rio.de Janeiro !! e já fechou !Era uma casa de festas !! mto bonita !!”

“ITS EVERYTHING PEOPLE NEED FOR THEIR SOUL AND IT BRINGS BACK THE FEELING OF LOVE AND FAMILY”

“If you're looking for a clean home made tasting bowl of Pho this is your place. I prefer the chicken broth over the beef. I recommend the pork or shrimp Pho and the pork & chicken spring rolls are amazing and full of flavor. This place is pretty affordable and cheaper then the ramen houses close by.”

“Good food, good price. My favorite is the mat lovers. They do it well”

“HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! We use Primavera's frequently to feed our business employees. 10/10 recommend their pizza and delivery service. Deliveries are always on time, and the pizza is perfection.

“Me encanta el pollo a la brasa de ahi, pero ultimamente viene crudo, llame a decirles para que tengan mas cuidado pero no logre comunicarme.”

“Melissa from bakers bounty is so nice. The crumb cake is excellent. We like more crumb & less cake.We also bought a loaf of the semolina twist Italian bread which was very good as well. I would recommend them to anyone because they have good products & stand by them. Thank You ?.”

“George Deli is a great store, so much like the stores we had in yesteryear. George is friendly, warm and family oriented. The store is clean and not over price. I feel very comfortable shopping there and having small conversations. May God continue to bless him.”

“Freddy's is awesome. Best burgers in NJ.”

“Normally, i have a good experience in this new Oanda Express, HOWEVER, I sent my daughter there & they gave me all burned pieces of terayaki chicken. The mgr apologized and said he'd send me another with a deliver i put in, but he did not send it, never answered my call & i left a message & he never called back. I give a 3.5 for that. I have NEVER had a bad experience at the other Panda Express locations in nearby cities. They need managerial & worker training. Quick”

Them and it's always hot even when delivered !!! I do not make many reviews for any place but for the food it's incredible and very reasonably priced”

“1st time coming here, and the experience was fantastic!!!! Food was awesome, still have enough of the half chicken for probably 2 more meals. Will definetly be back!!!”

“EDIT : A manager reached out to me and immediately apologized and offered to fix the issue by offering another meal for me to make up for the issue which was much appreciated. They didnt even ask me to amend the review but im doing so because while mistakes can be made they are often not fixed but this restaurant chose to reach out to me make things right which makes me glad and encourages me to give them business again.

It was mostly amazing. I loved the staff they were super sweat and amazing !
But i got the shrimp platter and it was soggy and stuff like it wasn't fried right. I had to take it home and put it in the airfryer and then it turned out amazing.

Not a big deal but I did wait a really long time for a to go order but that wasn't the servers fault. That day I didnt really mind cause I was drinking so my patience was much higher lol

I do recommend getting their chicken quesadillas i absolutely devoured them each time I had it.”

“The Kave in Linden, NJ is a local favorite! Friendly bartenders, very affordable drinks, and a warm, family-friendly atmosphere make every visit enjoyable. The jukebox keeps the vibe lively, and on weekends, the DJ adds extra fun. Perfect spot for a night out with friends or a relaxed evening in New Jersey. Highly recommended! 🎶🍹”
