New American Restaurants near Linden, NJ

“I tasted Bullhorns Burgers, and it was sooo good. The burger was super juicy and packed with flavor, with fresh toppings that made every bite satisfying. The bun was soft, the meat was perfectly cooked, and everything tasted fresh and well-seasoned. It felt filling without being too heavy, and the fries on the side were crispy and delicious. Definitely a place I’d go back to when I’m craving a really good burger. 🍔😋“

“Made reservations for 630 on 10/17, the host was going to sit us at a small round table in the front, I explained to her that the amount of food we were going to order was too much for this table and she quickly accommodated me to a bigger table. Then , we had the most sweetest waitress Areej , she was well mannered, always smiling and suggested foods to try! Alllll the food was phenomenal! I never Ate chicken pot pie, but those chicken pot pie empanadas, were absolutely out of this world. Definitely will be coming back soon!!“

“Tracy was out waiter. She was fantastic. She gave us the history of the restaurant and made some great suggestions. I'm not a huge guac fan but the tuna tartare with that layer of guac on top was fantastic. The steak frites were excellent. My husband had the dry aged burger, it was juicy and tasty. It was our first time there but it certainly won't be our last.“

“This is the first 5 Star restaurant we have found in NJ since moving in 1991 from Manhatten. Four of us went this past sunday evening. Everything was 5 star,including food; Niavh's (Irish name pronounced as Nieve) service; and the personable manager, Dave. Gorgeous wood and glass. Great Ambience. Easy to park. Could not be happier!“

“We have eaten at the new Carriage House a few times since it recently opened, and have been impressed overall. The food has been consistently good, and the Carriage House is quite lovely. We have tried chicken, fish, and pasta entrees and have enjoyed them all. The overall service is good, but as with most restaurants, they have some very seasoned staff who are excellent, along with some relatively new staff who will benefit from more experience. It is an excellent choice before or after a performance at the Paper Mill. We hope they continue service when the Paper Mill is not offering performances.“

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

“As soon as we walked in we felt welcome, woman asked us if it was our first time, sat us down gave us menus she was so sweet, I wasn’t sure weather or not to get chicken or beef with my egusi soup, she offered both… I was nervous at first to try it but it was all top tier. By far the best chicken I’ve had in a very long time and the fufu and egusi was divine“

“Rarely do I feel inspired to 5/5 a place but this is a magical spot to hang out. DJ Davis G spins the best music creating incredible vibes you cannot miss. The servers working are attentive and friendly. All of this is a 10/10, but I need to talk about the food. The wings at this spot are by far the best wings you will ever have in your entire life. When you are listening to some of the best songs you ever heard, while receiving the best service you have ever had the pleasure of receiving, you will be sitting down eating the best wings you have ever had in your entire life. These wings changed my life. I have a new answer to my "what would your last meal be" answer after consuming the wings at this pub. Nothing will ever replace how I felt when I was at this special pub. Cannot recommend more.“

“Great staff. Delicious food.“

“Good food, great service, fun crowd“

“Came here with a friend to grab dinner before seeing a show in NJPAC. Service was fantastic - our waitress was a delight, the table was never unnecessarily crowded with plates, and my glass seemed to never run out of water. The atmosphere is pleasant, we opted for couch seating since the tables were all reserved and the positioning of the chairs we sat at was a little awkward with a large potted plant and the table itself, but all in all a lovely place. Lots of neat artwork on the walls and good ambient lighting. The food however had me disappointed... I opted for something easy and reliable, a chicken pot pie. When it came out it looked GREAT, but when I started to dig in I realized the biscuit crust on top was very difficult to break apart, and trying a bite made me realize the biscuit was... Tough? And chewy? Genuinely not sure how that was managed but it was unpleasant. The actual filling was fine enough - the vegetables (carrots and potatoes in particular) could have all been cooked down to be softer but they were perfectly edible. That said, the filling was pretty flavorless. The chicken in the filling? FANTASTIC. But only by itself, everything else drowned out the chicken and the delicious flavor of the chicken unfortunately was not enough to flavor the rest, so it was a bland and tough chewy mess that was difficult to eat. We got dessert after and I opted for a slice of cheesecake - the cheesecake was phenomenal. Incredibly airy, light, creamy, and flavorful. It had a raspberry sauce/compote of some kind that I wasn't fond of but that's a personal preference, objectively it was well made and delicious overall.

All things considered, I'd rate this place 3.5 stars if I could.“

“Great food! Great service! Bella was our waitress for a party and she was great and so friendly. We will definitely be back.“

“One of the greatest dive bars in New Jersey! Cold, cheap beer, good people, great pizza, and plenty of snacks—what more do you need?

The crowd is always good, the atmosphere is laid-back, and it’s the kind of place you can just kick back and have a great time. Definitely one of my staples and a spot I’ll keep coming back to.“
