New American Restaurants near Linden, NJ

“buenísimo full diversion“

“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.“

“excelente servicio, el sabor incleible,,,super económico. los felicito, me prepararon una tortillas de harina, exactamemte como la queria“

“Great food and drinks! Very pretty inside.“

“Arrived 20 mins early but wasn’t seated until exactly my reservation time despite many empty tables, felt a bit unwelcoming. Sat at the bar instead, where the attendant was very kind. Tuna tartare was great, but the chicken was dry and salmon salad was delicious. Small mosquitoes were also a nuisance.“

“Ram & Rooster delivers a fantastic tasting menu experience from start to finish. The space is beautiful, with superb decor and a counter overlooking the open kitchen that makes the whole meal feel intimate and engaging all for a great price!

Several dishes stood out, especially the scallop course, which was perfectly cooked and incredibly flavorful. The duck dish was another highlight—rich, tender, and beautifully balanced. It’s also BYOB, and they offer some excellent non-alcoholic drink options that pair nicely with the meal.

Dessert was the perfect ending, with a bright lemon cake and a decadent chocolate dish that were both outstanding.

Phenomenal service throughout the evening made the experience even better. Ram & Rooster is a must for anyone looking for a refined and memorable tasting menu.“

“if you like good food this is the place to go. We had a little bit of everything. Highly recommend the cheese and meat board and the gnocchi is amazing. The winner of the night was the tuna and don't skip dessert. We will come back.“

“Great food and fun atmosphere!“

“Second baptism brunch I've attended here. The staff and food the last time were incredible but the staff this time were above and beyond incredible!! The food was very good and the place was extremely clean! Only issue I had was they put salad on top of each meal after serving a salad to start the meal. Didn't make much sense to me. But I still highly recommend this place!!! Too bad I could only give 5 stars to the service as it deserves 10!!!“

“Great place. Will be sorely missed. Unfortunately, could be beginning of mass exodus from our formerly great nation.“

“We had our daughter in-laws shower here ! They did a fabulous job! The food was outstanding as well as the service ! It was a perfect day ! Beautiful restaurant! Highly recommend!“

“Amazing Restaurant! Good food, service and cocktails .. Sam the server was very informative about the restaurants daily events ( happy hour, brunch etc.) I will definitely return ..“

“The burger was one of the best burgers I have ever eaten!!“

“We had a 50th wedding anniversary dinner at Metuchen Inn and it was perfect. The staff there is amazing. Everyone was so accommodating and they went above and beyond to make it a great evening. Anyone who is looking to host an event should consider Metuchen Inn!“

“The Food was delicious, service was 5 star . I would really recommend this lovely place for a dinner date or a big party at there huge room rental hall“

“I stumbled upon this hidden gem during a snowstorm, and what an incredible find it turned out to be! From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed with warm hospitality, and despite the weather, the restaurant remained open—showing true dedication to its customers.

Jessie, our bartender, truly elevated the experience. His attentiveness and friendly demeanor made the evening even more enjoyable. The DJ set the perfect vibe, spinning old-school hip-hop that created an intimate yet lively atmosphere, even with a smaller crowd due to the storm. The fact that they stayed open and kept the energy high speaks volumes about their consistency and appreciation for their guests. A special touch was when they went out of their way to sing happy birthday to my boyfriend—such a thoughtful and memorable gesture!

Now, let’s talk about the food—absolutely phenomenal! The octopus appetizer was cooked to perfection, and the olives that accompanied it were hands down the best I’ve ever had. For my entrée, I had the harper steak, and I can confidently say it was one of the most flavorful steaks I’ve had in years. Every bite was a 10/10, and the pricing was more than reasonable for the quality of the meal.

I’m not from the area, but this experience left such an impression that I’ve already shared it on social media, and I’ll definitely be returning. A huge thank you to the team for making this such a memorable night—I can’t recommend this place enough!“

“buena atencion y rica comida mexicana“

“Delicious food. Great service by Sydney! It started with amazing honey bread at the table. Flatbreads yum, especially the one with fig topping. Muscles, tuna tartare, noodle flush, brussel sprouts, calamari salad, and more! All yum! Would absolutely go there again. We had 8-10 people and the service was excellent.“

“Karol is an awesome server! She checked in on us at the right times. She is friendly and patient and didn’t forget anything. We hope she is there the next time we come. Chef Courtney did amazing on the wings. Thanks for the Birthday wishes for my daughter. Great atmosphere even for family with young children. The two hosts were very friendly as well. Next I come I will check out the bar. 😊Thank you kindly for a great first visit. 😊“

“Creative food, friendly staff, always delicious.“

“We had our son’s first birthday party last night, and we chose Punjabi Dhaba for the catering. I can honestly say they exceeded our expectations.

The food was incredible. Every single item tasted fresh, authentic, and full of flavor. We had more than enough for everyone, and guests kept going back for seconds. So many people came up to us just to say how good the food was.

What really stood out was their service. They were organized, attentive, and made sure everything stayed stocked and running smoothly throughout the event. We had a good number of guests, and they handled it all without any issues. It gave us peace of mind so we could actually enjoy our son’s special day instead of worrying about the food.

If you’re looking for Punjabi catering that delivers both quality and professionalism, I would absolutely recommend them. They played a big part in making our event stress-free and memorable.“

“Great service every time I’ve been there“

Great food greater service a little pricey for the breakfast buffet $40 per head but you get what you pay for ! Excellent experience , the entire hotel was awesome for our family of 7 trip !“

“On behalf of Roc-A-Natural Cultural Foundation Inc, we would like to thank Li Greci's Staaten for always going above and beyond to accommodate us and help make our annual "edu-taining" events "the best events ever!"“

“I went here for a fundraiser they had about 7 different hors d'oeuvres all were good the waiters kept them coming .I ordered the duck lollipops , cheeseburger , watermelon salad , spicy cauliflower and the wings all were very good .
