“Guava cake brought us back to our childhoods. Highly recommended!!“

“I had an amazing experience dining here tonight. My boyfriend & I wanted to explore Vietnamese cuisine. I’m vegan & loved that they had multiple options for me. We ordered steamed vegetable dumplings to start. Fresh ingredients and the perfect starter to a great meal. The Thai milk tea was outstanding. Not too sweet yet creamy and addictive. The staff directed me towards the lemongrass pho with vegetables and tofu. It was out of this world! The lemongrass flavor was rich and comforting. My boyfriend ordered the Bánh mì. It was sweet and savory - the perfect balance. The baguette was fresh and the meat was very seasoned and well cooked. I had the pleasure of meeting the owner, Andy. You can tell he’s passionate about his restaurant and customers. I said I added too much chili oil to my broth (rookie mistake - it’s very spicy!) and he was kind enough to add more broth to my leftovers to lessen the heat. He was accommodating, friendly and kind. We can’t wait to explore the whole menu. Highly recommended!“

“This place is officially my go to local bakery! Victoria and her mom Laurence have been nothing but kind and helpful each time I’ve went in. My friends and family raved about the triple chocolate cake i picked up for my sisters birthday and my best friend and i enjoy a quiet breakfast and cafe on the weekends! The decor is so welcoming and bright. It’s a great place to sit, and relax! I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious pastries and French imports. It’s a piece of home for my mom, as well! 🇫🇷🥖🥐🥮🧁🎂💕“

“Great food and friendly service!!!“

“Delicious protein shakes and super friendly customer service!“

“i rarely write reviews but this place is so good that i must write one. i first tried their brown sugar boba back in 2021 and i was honestly blown away. it's a basic drink, but something about it differentiated them from the rest of the boba shops that also has brown sugar boba. every time i come here, their boba pearls are always perfect (not mushy, soft, chewy, perfectly sweet). i've also tried different drinks such as their taro puff cream, rose milk tea, and matcha creme brulee, and it did not disappoint. i believe they're reasonably priced too, compared to other boba shops where a large boba would cost almost $10. as someone who has tried most of the boba places in central jersey, i can say this place is definitely one of the top (in my opinion) in the area!“

“Great selection. New brews regularly and the staples. Great staff & atmosphere. Fun place“

“Ambee coffee is Warren is so amazing. The atmosphere is so chill & relaxing. The staff are so friendly & helpful when new customers have questions. The coffee is amazing as well as the dessert choices!!!!“

“The staff was friendly and engaging. They went above and beyond to explain the foods and options because there are just so many! They have a loyalty program for returning customers, which I love. Then the food came out and I was blown away. For the price you pay, I think the quality is phenomenal! I had the Hippie Avo Toast, the staff member suggested adding an egg and it really hit the spot. The atmosphere is so warm and inviting, and it's nice to know the business is conscious about the planet. I will definitely be returning here!!!!!“

“We love the atmosphere, the delicious homemade soups, main dishes, and desserts at the lovely Friends Friend's Cafe :) the jazz evenings outdoors, the chess-playing and studying students & Mo, Josephine, and Hannah with the heart of gold for all furry friends who are welcome inside the cafe, and, of course, on the patio <3 <3 <3 Below is our Rover enjoying his doggie meal and a comfy bed at the cafe :)“

“Really nice chill breakfast-ish brunchy place. I ordered a lot of food as much of it was pretty novel options that I have only had once or twice while traveling. All of it was very good. The location wasn’t anything fancy, very casual, but with an overall nice vibe. Staff were very friendly and helpful.“

“Friendly staff. Great food presentation. Quick service.“

“Great neighborhood bar and vibe. I've been here a few times for live music. There's plenty of room both inside and outside to hang out. Drinks are tasty and the bartenders are friendly. Haven't had the food but I've heard good things from friends that have eaten here.“

“Comfortable environment with knowledgeable & friendly staff. Always have something that I enjoy and let you sample before a full pour. The menu changes often enough that there is something new to try but also the classics on standby. Located in a quite area but close enough to rt 1 so pretty much anywhere will deliver. They also offer different events and food trucks, so there is always something to look forward to.... the best part? They're SUPER dog friendly!“

“Delicious smoothies and very healthy vegan, gluten free & certificated organic food.“

“We tried this place for the first time and it did not disappoint! We were originally nervous because of the high price point, but it was quickly justified by the quality of the food.

The fried chicken from Combo A had a light crunchy exterior, and the meat was juicy, hot, and succulent. The chicken was perfectly cooked.

The waffle fries were crunchy and slightly spicy on the outside, and fluffy on the inside. Order them as fresh as possible so it’s at its peak crunchiness.

The chicken sandwich was AWESOME. The bread was sweet which paired well with the spicy Mango Habanero sauce that we selected on the chicken. While it was on the pricey side, it was large. Worth it!!

The soy garlic sauce was sweet yet garlicky. It was really flavorful. The Seoul Buffalo sauce however, was not good. It was too tangy, and tasted like Franks Red Hot Sauce despite all of their sauces being house made.

Overall we’d HIGHLY recommend this place as a place to splurge when treating yourself to some awesome fried chicken 😍😍😍“

“Kyma is the reason we drive 30 minutes for amazing authentic Greek cuisine. Our appetizer/small plate of smoked eggplant dip & lamb empanada with herb mint sauce was a wonderful start. Sea bass in tomato broth with potatoes & Aegean shrimp dish were perfectly prepared. We had to have the baklava with vanilla ice cream (no pic as we attacked it!). The ambience, service and food made for a beautiful meal!“

“Penstock is great. Their tea is awesome and it always hits the spot. Also, the staff is very helpful and down to Earth.“

“Great my favorite place to get the Boba tea“

“Love, love, love this place forever and will always be my go-to spot for great vibes and drinks! Riley and Parker are such amazing bartenders and keep the vibes up in the pub at all times! The drinks are some of the best I've had in New Brunswick, and the prices are just reasonable compared to some subpar drinks I've paid more for in other pubs in the area.“

“It seemed like the restaurant was closed but my friends and I was able to order some drinks at the bar, then we moved to a table for dinner. Our server Dominic was very attentive and helpful. Chicken tasted a little too dry, but all the other food we ordered was amazing; especially brisket! It was so tender and tasty. Two of the desserts we ordered with a cup of cappuccino were phenomenal. We were so full after finishing the bbq combo plate, but sure did finish both of the desserts ? I'm glad this place is open for the public. Will definitely comeback ??‍♀️“

Wheelchair accessibility: they have a wheelchair ramp“

“I’ve been here many times and have never had a bad meal or experience.
My favorite is eating outside but inside is just as good.
Staff is attentive and fast. The food is constantly good and the cocktails are always on point.
Very happy to have this place locally.“

“Do you really live in a small east coast or Midwest town if you’re not eagerly awaiting the seasonal opening of the local ice cream shop? Closer to Edison than HP proper, this no-frills ice cream shop in a barn-shaped building serves up some excellent ice cream. They offer everything from soft serve to dole whip.

Some notes for when you go. There’s a limited amount of parking spaces, a small amount of picnic benches for seating, they only take cash, and there’s always a line. It goes pretty quickly though! I highly recommend walking there if you can!

Dietary restrictions: They have dairy free and sugar free options.“

“This is one of my favorite places for pizza in my new neighborhood! The vibe truly is chill! Where menu items are prepared with fresh ingredients and a smile! The flavor is so amazing! The pizza dough is soft and foldable. Truly yummy! The owner and her people are very pleasant as we always chat when I come in! They are in the right business and i shows! The Garlic Knots are super fresh and oh my goodness...DELICIOUS! Grateful they are here and so glad I walked into their place that first time! They care about the community! What a blessing!! Keep doing what you do!!!“

“it's clean, has nice people working there, the food tastes real not that frozen bs, easy to order, they aren't cheap when you ask for extra toppings like once I asked for pickles and they gave me nicely cut pickle slices like a whole container“

“Cute costa Rican 🇨🇷 spot.
Very friendly and welcoming.
The empanada are $5 but if you are a big empanada fanatic like me, you should definitely try it. The chicken and beef are my favorite. They are stuffed... no air pocket whatsoever. Pulled beef and pulled chicken.

The food was good but a bit blend. Just need a little more seasoning on the eggs especially. Maybe salt and pepper may solve it for some but I needed more. Lol

I got the breakfast tacos and added chicken to it. The chicken were just added on top and the were big pieces of chicken. I had to diced it myself to mesh it all together. You must be quick with the tacos or the tortilla gets very soft and makes it impossible to hold.

Overall I enjoy my empanada and took my leftover which I spice up the next day on the stove.

If in the area again, i would visit this place for their empanada and delicious ice coffee.

You can bring your dog here. Very dog friendly and I thing they were doing photoshoot with the dogs when I visited.“

“We went there for the first time tonight. The staff was very courteous. The atmosphere was beautiful. The food was absolutely fantastic as we had their sampler. Didn’t feel rushed. The cappuccino and mousse topped off a truly wonderful experience. We will be back again and again…. and again. ❤️🇪🇹❤️“

“Lemongrass beef box comes with white rice and pickled veggies. DELICIOUS!!!!!“

“Had the best time! The employees gave great recommendations on what to drink when I couldn’t make up my mind. They made the experience very personal and cozy. I really appreciated it after a long day at work honestly. Coffee was pretty good and the atmosphere overall was great. Love the decor.“

“This restaurant has by far the best thai food I've ever had (and their portions are huge). My favorite item on the menu is the Guay Teow Rad Prig; it comes with tons of sauce and is extremely flavorful. Their fried ice cream is also a family favorite. I've also tried the mango sticky rice, which is very good. I highly suggest coming here!“

“The food is great. They give you a lot for your money. I never could finish my food“

“Best place to start your day❤️“

“Great food with great service“
