“I was so happy everyone enjoyed the food. I ordered for dinner at work some others wanted to try it. We had the fried porgies fish, flounder fish, rasta pasta, string beans, collard greens, mac and cheese yams. The fish was fried golden brown with a light crisp to it seasoned well just right besides were all good. They enjoyed the Rasta pasta we ordered it as a side but we will order it as a main dish next time. My plate in the picture looks a bit messy it's because I try to cram a little bit of everything on it at one time.“

A special highlight was the complimentary bottle of wine and appetizers provided to our table, which added a delightful touch to the evening. Overall, Toscana offers a fantastic dining experience with excellent service and delicious food. Highly recommended!“

“We tried Hook & Reel for the first time and enjoyed it so much, we went back 2 days later. The food was well prepared, delicious, and served hot. Yummy lobster bisque, I ordered a 2nd bowl after finishing the first! Fried calamari was yummy as well. The raw oysters were perfect and the boil with Hook & Reel's own Cajun sauce was outstanding. Our server, Moe, was friendly and very efficient; he makes your dining experience error-free so you can relax and enjoy the meal. The Manager here gets credit for a well-run ship! He really appreciates the customers and it shows. You will definitely want to eat here frequently. Great service, tasty food, relaxed atmosphere - you won't be disappointed.“

“Great food. Welcoming you from the door and checking on you throughout needs some work. Hostess wasn’t hospitable.“

“Good food and atmosphere and service always on point and both courteous and prompt ….. make a an awesome Pomegranate Martini 🍸“

“Seafood pimps was the best decision I could had made to celebrate my 56th birthday. I decided to purchase the Nexf ix & Chill. First the presentation was SUPERB. The crabs, mussels and shrimp were FRESH and DELECTABLE. The vegetables were seasoned to perfection. least of them all the amount that you receive is enough to feed a full size family, and we only ordered for two. I will definitely be back. I recommend Seafood Pimps to anyone that enjoy fresh mouth watering seafood.“

“Excellent service. What’s the owner name“

“Creative food, friendly staff, always delicious.“

“Can I please give it 6 stars? I recently went there with a group of five family members while visiting New Jersey and we had a truly extraordinary night! As an investor in restaurants I'm very critical when visiting any restaurant and not often impressed even with well known critically acclaimed restaurants. It's very rare when a place has truly incredible food with every appetizer and entree as well as first class VIP vibes for service. You could literally taste the passion and care put into every plate with beautifully prepared flavorful abundant meals. In fact, it was the first time in almost a decade I brought home leftovers as the meal was delicious and easily sufficient for two people. Our entire table raved about their meals and the attentive but not obtrusive service was always there to refill our wine and assist without any of us having to look up for service. The food alone would have made for a great night but what truly made it memorable besides the great waitstaff was the manager, Eli. When was the last time a manager, GM or owner greated you at your table to share a polite, interesting and passionate conversation about the food and why they love sharing this experience with their valued customers? He made our entire table feel like VIPs and made perfect recommendations for wine and dessert. It felt more like we were in someone's home as we were there for close to 3-1/2 hours talking, eating, drinking and laughing. The ambiance is warm and unpretentious and the memories of a great experience will certainly bring us back again.“

“We ordered delivery to Union. Our order arrived about 30 min early and was fresh, hot and delicious!! I highly recommend this location and will become a regular customer.“

“I have been eating here for a few years now and the food and service are always fantastic. Today I ordered for delivery for the first time and I couldn’t be happier with my order. Some places definitely give you less food when you have your food delivered but Cole’s sends the same huge portions you get when dining in and it is just as delicious. If you haven’t been yet you are missing out.“

“Absolutely delicious! Highly recommend:)“

“Great food here! I had to drive 40 minutes to get here, but the food makes it worth it! The service is great, the fish is excellent, and the atmosphere is friendly. The restroom is clean, but the only problem is the opening hour is a bit late. Overall, great experience. Would definitely come back again. Possibly the best fish soup in NJ.“

“disfrutamos de un excelente servicio y Daniel el camareronos brindo atencion“

“A Steak Lover's Paradise: Strickland's Steakhouse Our recent holiday dinner at Strickland's Steakhouse was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we stepped into the elegant dining room, we were greeted with warm hospitality and attentive service. Eva, our server, was truly exceptional. Her extensive knowledge of the menu and daily specials made our dining experience even more enjoyable. She was attentive, friendly, and always willing to go the extra mile. The appetizers were a delightful prelude to the main course. Each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The steaks were the highlight of the evening. The Japanese A5 Wagyu was a revelation - tender, juicy, and incredibly flavorful. Every bite was pure indulgence. To top off the meal, we indulged in a variety of delectable desserts and rich coffees. The perfect ending to a perfect evening. Strickland's Steakhouse is a must-visit for any steak lover. The combination of exceptional food, impeccable service, and elegant ambiance makes it a truly memorable dining experience. We highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to returning in the future.“

“Went for dinner on Friday with my boys. Stephanie was amazing. her recommendations for entrees was perfect. The timing and meals were great. Was a nice evening.“

“The Food Is Absolutely Delicious and good portions.. The service is very warm and welcoming.. The drinks were very tasty.. And the inside decor and scenery is phenomenal.. I went for lunch with my Mom we will definitely be back here.“

“Lunch service was nice. However my brother ordered a Paella and there was hardly any rice in it. Given the fact the waiter insisted it would feed 3 I'm glad he ordered his solo cause it was barely enough for him. I ordered a chicken breast and chorizo lunch special. It was good. Aside from the spicy flavors it was great. The service was fantastic. It's no wonder they've been around for a long time. My brother recommended this place since he's been coming here a long time. I'm definitely opened to give it another try.“

“First time and they did not disappoint😊Food was fabulous!“

“I've been buying fresh fish, as well as cooked fish for some years now, & have been TOTALLY satisfied. Dan is ALWAYS beyond pleasant, & meets your special requests !! ❤“

“Kudos go out to the Marina Cafe for doing Thanksgiving up right! No wonder the restaurant was packed today. A wide variety of plates to choose from today, making it hard to decide. We went with the Turkey Dinner and it was perfect. What a tender bird, roasted perfectly. The tiramisu at the end was the cherry on the cake. Best I ever had! I know sometimes it's hit or miss when you go out to eat on a holiday! Not the case at the Marina Cafe! And of course, the view can't be beat! ? — at Marina Cafe.“

“I highly recommend this fish market. Owner is very nice and accommodating. My gma needed 150$ dollars worth of whiting but she wanted it for a different date. Anyway i returned to pick it up and the fish was ready. All cleaned and packaged nice. Highly recommend!“

“On Saturday May 28th I had a reservation for 15 people because it was my daughter sweet sixteenth birthday dinner. The atmosphere was great, the music was a little too LOUD especially for some young children in my party and we the adults and young people we couldn’t hear each other speaking and my suggestion is to have the music at a moderate tone so we can hear each other at the table and also to make sure the waitress/waiter get the food order correct . The food was a little too salty but everything was ok“

“This place is a 10 out of 10. Every time I go the food is consistently great. The service is excellent and they make you feel special when you let them know the reason you are celebrating.

I aways get the Filet Mignon - perfectly cooked and the mashed potatoes are amazing! They have the best mashed potatoes I've ever had.“

“Great sandwiches. Definitely recommend“

“Jenn did such an amazing job taking care of me at Ruby Tuesday! It was my first time visiting The Mills at Jersey Gardens, which you can imagine is a very overwhelming experience (especially in December!). I decided to come to Ruby Tuesday to figure out a game plan & decompress and she was nothing short of kind, responsive, and prompt!! I would definitely come back to Ruby Tuesday for Jenn’s service and kindness(:“

“It was a wonderful experience trying Lebanese cuisine for the first time. I love everything my daughter-in-law ordered. My favorite was the Old City Platter. I got to try different things. The hummus plate was awesom❤️‍🩹“

“Simply known as 'The Armory' this mainly seafood place has an old wartime feel, big brick building with lots of windows along the water/pier/outside bar. We walked in and were greeted and seated within 5 minutes. Amazing menu, nothing bad at all (four of us all tried different items), the calimari is not overly crunch, the pork chops were thick and well cooked/cut, I had jumbo shrimp, but the word jumbo doesn't do the dish justice. Extremely well curated menu, sangria was to die for, and we had a pinapple/cinnimon dessert that was really good (light because the meal was so heavy). Don't have to dress up, a nice button down shirt and nice shorts/pants for men is just fine, but don't go like a slob, it's still a nice place. Lots of birthdays and celebrations going on, for us it was a saturday night dinner with old friends. Thank you Armory, the service and food were top notch!!!“

“Had the pleasure of eating at Giorgio"s last night before a show at SPAC. Service was outstanding, menu explained and food was excellent. From our salad, entree and desert everything was outstanding. I highly recommend it but please not before a show I may now get a reservation again.“

“Excellent service and the food is AMAZING! We live going there for the Oysters“

“(Translated by Google) I loved it. I was able to feel in my country for a couple of hours. Exceptional service. The place is super elegant. God bless its owners.(Original)Me encantó pude sentirme en mi país por un par de horas servicio excepcional el lugar está súper elegante Dios bendiga a sus propietarios“

“Lovely auntie makes the best samosa chaat I’ve ever had! Literally so mouthwatering“
