“A very unique experience in a casual setting! The food is outstanding - absolutely delicious - chef Patrick honestly puts his heart and soul into each dish. From the smoked meats to the Brussels sprouts to their signature Pineapple Express cocktail, you will devour ever morsel! They have live bands provide an eclectic mix of tunes to attract all ages as well as an outside patio space! I appreciate the casual atmosphere and its ample parking and of course the history of this building is mind blowing! Highly recommend!“
“The best decision I made was to order the half chicken instead of the quarter. Cooked fresh to order, bursting with flavor and a healthy meal what more could you want. Know before you go - the restaurant doesn’t look like much and because the food is cooked to order call ahead or be prepared to wait 20 minutes.Absolutely recommend for something different, delicious and affordable. Will be back soon!“
“Great experience, great service! Anais was our server. She’s super friendly and guided us through the menu as some of us were first timers.Huge selection of meats, seafood and vegetarian options to choose from. Highly recommend with a group of friends or a fun family outingKid-friendliness: My daughters loved it!“
“Today, I visited Meet Moot and was captivated by its ambiance. The sophisticated furniture and stylish lighting fixtures created a delightful atmosphere. The beef ribs and lamb shank were exceptional—so tender and juicy! However, our experience started confusingly. The ordering process was disorganized and there was no one to welcome or guide incoming customers.Despite Meet Moot's potential for an excellent dining experience, it was marred by inconsistent service. For a premium price, I expect a higher standard of dining.“
“I have been going here for years and they never disappoint. The food is always fresh and the service is excellent. He is so friendly and welcoming to everyone. His makes you feel like you’re old friends. They always have a customer in me. I refer everyone to go!“

“First time there and the experience was exhilarating. Our Server Kai was patient, attentive and seemed excited explaining to us how to order and use the equipment as well as to show us where the sauce bar is located. The location is clean and the environment was welcoming. Thank you for the experience.“
“We had a private superbowl/birthday party there..food was delicious and the restaurant was very clean..the owner is so wonderful and accommodating...staff was very friendly and fun! Would highly recommend this establishment! Order early as the food goes very fast!“
“The charcoal grilled half chicken was so delicious, moist & flavorful. Meg’s corn concoction & collard greens were delicious. What an awesome place with friendly service & fair prices. Such a nice change of pace for dining options. I was also talking to a customer who had the brisket meal with coleslaw & mac cheese which he said was amazing. I would highly recommend right off Rt 23.“
“Love this place! Great food, great drinks, service is always speedy and pleasant. Depending on what time and day you go you'll have a variety of different but interesting people to chat with, unless you just feel like people watching which is fine too.“
“I ate here every week during my internship next door! The wings were incredible and the corn bread was the best I've ever had! The family that owns it are wonderfully kind. I always felt welcomed and appreciated :) I'm finally going back in March and I can't wait“
“this place is a hidden gem!!! the bulgogi bowls are always so delicious and tender, and the service is consistently amazing!! this sweet young lady even gave me a new item on their menu to try for free! i recommend to everyone!! ☺️☺️“

“Ordered the Asun combo with jollof rice, and I must say this is the best Nigerian restaurant I've eaten from since getting here. It was 10/10. You'll know that the chefs know how to cook, not all these random people selling food here & there.Slightly expensive, but compared to other African restaurants it's just like $2-5 more, so it's totally worth it in my opinion.Can you guys please venture into other things like pepper soup and small chops???I simply can't deal with these other restaurants selling nonsense lol. Thanks in advance.“
“If you love smoked food, Kanoon is the place for you. The ambiance is very cozy, and we especially enjoyed the complimentary starters. The food overall was good, and we received excellent service from Izzy, Hassan, and Johnelle. Thank you again. It was the perfect place to celebrate my husband's birthday!“
“We’ve come in here before and the food was great. Tonight was above great! We came in close to closing and were first met with a clean dining area (as usual). Clefson greeted us at the chop block to take our order and his attitude was very pleasant. Taniel followed behind him with an assist and took our side orders. We ordered a medium size brussel sprouts and since it was close to closing, he offered us fresh brussel sprouts. Dazzle finished the order and made check out easy and packaged our food with care. The customer service we received was definitely beyond what we expected. Shout out to the two cooks in the back!!! Came in for a quick bite, left with a good laugh.On a side note, portion sizes were good and love the fact they over fill the side cups.If you’re in the area stop by for a quick sandwich, you won’t be disappointed! It’s worth a try.“
“The space is small, but this is more of a takeout place. The portions are large and therefore you don't need to make many orders and the food is great. Everything is ready when they tell you it will be. you don't have to wait for your order for too long. I definitely recommend as a quick solution if you don't feel like cooking.“
“Great food very well made and very nice owners. I’d say the chef is really passionate about his food.”. I don’t leave very close but I frequently find a way to stop by and enjoy their food and usually take some extra food away. The menu is definitely authentic Romanian, although there are a few Central European specialities and American style items as well for those interested.“
“Haven't been here in years and the food still tastes just as good as I remember it. Meat is seasoned very well. The rice also has greasy but tasty feel to it , also has some similar seasoning like the meat. Fries are look crunchy but super soft on the bite. Soda was ice cold even without the cup of ice! Very good food very good service plenty of room to sit. Place was super clean and the staff was super nice! 10/10“
“I have been coming to McWhorter Barbecue for years. The food, the people, and the ambiance are amazing. And the price can't be beat. This store has been around for years and will continue to do so. It's one of the safe havens in Newark. They will always get my business.“
“I Love this place! Ever since moving to the area this has been my go to for a quick & always delicious, satisfying meal. Chicken cutlets are homemade & particularly good. It’s a cozy , decidedly & charmingly old- fashioned grill/ eatery reminiscent of bygone jersey days.It’s a vibe all it’s own.“
“I loving everything. So delicious and fresh. The flavors melt in your mouth.. everything is done perfect with so much delicious taste. Everyone is so nice. And the place looks very nice and clean. I definitely be back. My son lovedddd the food too.. is really is so delicious. ?❤️“
“Very good food. It's a usually busy place for a kind of cuisine that's ubiquitous in the area. They've mastered the art of the order in that your food is cooked fresh and quickly. When in a need for the typical platter, this is definitely the place to go.“
“Located right off McCarter Highway in Newark right by South Street. This Manny's is way different than the others I have visited. A big platter is still $8 and empandas are still $2. I ordered stewed chicken with rice & black beans. Chicken was juicy & falling off the bone, rice was cooked well, not over cooked as were the beans. I ate this food for 3 days as the portion size is huge. I will be back...“
“This place is a diamond in the rough!!! I would recommend this to anyone coming to New York or New Jersey…. The food was amazing we had both steak and sea bass and it was cooked to perfection!!!! The hospitality was second to known!!! It was such a great experience.“
“The first time here ever, food and service were great! Brisket was juicy, and the BBQ sauces only elevated it. The burnt end baked beans were fantastic with huge chunks of meat. Roasted sweet potatoes were on point. The coleslaw needed a little something, maybe salt? The pickled onions were a bit overpickeled, in my opinion. Good spot, though. Think it came to $60 for 2 of us.Vegetarian options: Several of the sides and all the desserts.Parking: Plenty“
“I only gave the Atmosphere a 4 cause I haven't had a drink in here yet however, I did have the philly cheesesteak,the chicken tender platter and the nacho with Chilli and boy I tell you the food is on point so I can imagine the drinks. Customer service is awesome aswell I will definitely be coming back and forth when I'm in the area.Parking: Plenty available parking.Wheelchair accessibility: Spacious ramp right in the front, very convenient.“
“Honestly I only caught the place for the last hour of the night but I had fun and most importantly actually got that after work drink i was craving. Glad there are a few places open after the regular bar scene or staff (from other bars) would have nowhere to go and sit for one.“
“A coworker of mine bought me lunch and she ordered from here. OH MY LORD, I ordered half a chicken with Spanish fries and sautéed vegetables it was AMAZING! I order this about once a week for lunch haha. They offer delivery as well, and the staff inside is very nice and sweet. If you've never been here and want to try n something new. I would 100% recommend this place!“
“This restaurant is a favorite of my family. The owners are portugese and friendly. The food is delicious and fresh and made to order. I order ahead of time, and it's always ready when I arrive. And they know me by name. The only thing is NO PARKING... Have to park on the street...!!!“
“I decided to go for a solo lunch date today and I’m glad I did. My waitress Jackie was through and very helpful in her recommendations. She got my drink order and bread to my table quickly. My food came out quickly after that and I really enjoyed it. The Brussels and Sweet Potatoe were my favorites. I tried the Parmesan crusted chicken —I didnt care for it but that was more because of my picky preference. The Caesar salad was fresh and flavorful as well as a starter. I’ll definitely treat myself here again real soon!“
“First time eating in, we have always order combos to go and first time trying their fish, big portions, descent prices, atmosphere is not the best, parking is a pain, they have 4 spots on the back and their parking lot is share. Eating area could use some TLC but if you are there just for the food you are good to go.“
“Food is always good to excellent. Good hard working regulars always say hello; many have become good friends. The Portuguese " Cheers" kind of sums it up. Karokee on a Friday or Saturday brings a mix of music from people who just love to sing and to be around good people.“
“Ordered dinner for 5:15pm on the Slice app for pickup in the morning. Received email confirmation that my order was in. Received email progress on my order. I went there a little before the pickup time and went into the parking lot to the side of the restaurant and into the back. I received a text message saying that my order was ready. Since there is no dining in option, there was plenty of parking. I went inside and my order was waiting for me. Everything was packaged nicely. I ordered the fried chicken, chicken wings and fried calamari. My family enjoyed the food but believed that Korean fried chicken was still the best fried chicken they ever had. I liked the fried chicken mainly because the fried batter was not heavy like those chain places. The calamari came with marinara sauce for dipping and the chicken wings had a choice of sauce when placing your order. The pictures shown are after some of the food was eaten. We could not wait to dig in when I brought the food home.Parking: Parking is located next to restaurant.“
“The food was very good. I order a burger and fries and the hat kitchen sampler which was very very good. I recommend the latter with what ever you order. The crowd was mixed age and very friendly. The bar maid could have been a little more attentive to my order request as that was my first time there, you know what they say about first impressions. The music was on point. There's also two pool tables and a dart board for your pleasure. An for those who partake there are hookah pipes available too.Suggestion to the owner place a message on the answering machine stating time and days of operation. I almost didn't go because no one answered the phone as I'm not from the neighborhood but I took a chance glad I did. If ever I found myself in orange again I will surely stop by for a bite and to whip some tail on the pool table. LOL!!!“
“Food was exceptional. Def a place to go to if you’re craving some good old fashioned BBQ Portuguese cuisine. Fries were crispy to the tip. Beef ribs were phenomenal. And the chicken of course, well marinated, well cooked, and the taste was excellent. The manager, Leonardo, was kind enough to make sure my service was top shelf and enjoyable. Def coming back more often. A big thank you to the server for being quick, kind and efficient. 5+Stars“
“This place is awesome! Plenty of assorted appetizers to please all. Had the pierogi with kielbasa very satisfying and then the wings which were not batter dipped but with a spicy rub and those were delicious, crispy and yet juicy inside! Service is on point! Atmosphere very friendly and very local Sinagac crowd! Definitely a repeat!“
“We ordered catering from North Newark BBQ for a business event, and the food was outstanding. The pork ribs and rotisserie chicken were perfectly cooked and tender, seasoned just right with a flavorful dry rub. We also ordered a seafood platter, which was a big hit! The garlic green sauce paired wonderfully with the freshness of the shellfish. Danny & Cilinha executed my requests flawlessly and delivered everything on time. If you're seeking a unique dining experience, this is the place to go!“
“I love ordering food from the Pit from time to time. Their ribs and chicken are always on point !Friendly service and the added outside seating is great.This a great little gem in the town of Bloomfield. Highly recommended!*I always order either the combo or the half order of pork ribs which is plenty of portion for one.“
“My family loves this place. No frills and outdated decor and music but it adds to the charm and is cozy. Soups are always delicious. We especially love their German bean soup that they had during Oktoberfest. Chef, please have it more often! Sliced filet mignon with onions and mushrooms is my favorite entree. Finished with a slice of their homemade cheesecake. Place is affordable and we leave feeling happy.“

“I ate at their Newark airport (EWR) location. Best damn value in the airport. Great taste, good portion size, and nice staff (especially for an airport). If you find yourself I terminal A, or have a longer layover, make your way to gate A16 and see these fine folks. Add a Corona for $7 (April 2024). Again, for EWR, a great value. Cheers Carlitos!“
“The place is cozy and they even have Pinoy Christmas song on the background. My son & I ate here before heading to Manlapan Township for Gilas Basketball tryout. Ate was extremely nice & hospitable to us. Love the decors around the wall. The food was tasty & "Lutong Bahay" a Turoturo style.Parking: Find parking spot could be tough, good luck finding spots near by the restaurant.“
“The drinks and the food here are incredible. But honestly the best part about my experience here was the exceptional service I received from the truly incredible staff that works here. The entire staff was funny and exuberant, made me feel welcomed and quite frankly at home. I was truly grateful to have my gate right next to this establishment and was a perfect send off before my flight!“
“This was the best restaurant I’ve been to in a while. We stumbled upon it by accident after striking out with two other restaurants in the area, and I’m so glad we did! The place was elegant, service was friendly and extremely attentive, and the food quality and quantity were impressive! Will definitely return next time I’m in the area.“
“Dinner delivered arrived hot to the neighboring town. Dinner for 4 was 2 servings plus leftovers. The entree portions are large. A variety of sauces come with your order. The food is well seasoned. Grilled chicken was a tad bit dry but the sauce took care of that. Black beans no pork is hard to find in the area. The food is really good. I will order again.“
“A few weeks ago, I ate at Burnet BBQ #4 because I tasted some of their food weeks earlier at a family gathering. Well, the kindness of the staff, atmosphere and taste of the food did not disappoint. I definitely plan to return in the future when I’m in the area.“
“By now everybody knows this spot.When you get a chance to come down check-out Burnet BBQ. The Rotisserie Masters in the house. It's perfect every single time. I don't know how they do it I usually get the chicken with steamed veggies and rice.“
“So I went here for thr first time for dinner on Saturday night and enjoyed it.Since it was my first time there I felt a bit like a fish out of water as this place feels like a mix of bar and fast food. When we walked in I thought you had to wait to be seated but you can sit where you want. You can get a menu at your table but you order at food at the bar. Also, since I ordered soda you get that yourself at the fountain or a can/bottle in the fridge. You can also pay before you eat or after your done.All the staff were helpful when explaining who the place works. They were all nice as well and that was a plus.I had a Philly Cheesesteak with fries and the sandwich was huge. Great portion size there. The fries were ok. Date had a half size ribs with a baked potato and she really liked it. My friend had a burger and that did look a bit ordinary and he said it was ok.You have to get used to how they do things, but overall for the price and what we got I'd recommend it.“
“Minus one star for the hairs kind of a turn off (gross) but hey doesn’t get any fresher than that as if they killed it in the back lol… good food tho I was recommended by a customer and this is my honest review. You walk in it def old school vibes the smell of burnt smoky goodness! The pork was good the sauce was good. They have huge amounts of chopped meat in the back on the bone which was cool! I also had the bread pudding but ehh hard pass.. definately one of a kind place everyone should visit all the restaurants over 4.0 ratings in east orange it means they are doing something right!“
“Been here lots of times.. Great place for Portuguese BBQ. Always delicious, lots of options and a very friendly staff. You can dine in or take out.Parking: About 20 spots in the lot next to the building and plenty of free street parking.Kid-friendliness: Kids menu“
“One of my favorite dishes at Los Jarros is the vegetarian taco salad. It's made with a bed of lettuce, rice , black beans, pico, cheese, (add jalapenos for spice!) and sour cream. The star of the show, though, is the guacamole. It's made with fresh avocados, cilantro, onions, and tomatoes, and it's absolutely delicious.The whole meal is incredibly flavorful, and it's a great option for vegetarians or anyone looking for a lighter meal. I highly recommend it! Wonderful service every time i order“
“One of my favorite spots in the area. The atmosphere is homey & laid back with eclectic cool vibes. Even though it was a busy Saturday afternoon The service is fast & friendly just how I love my customer service. Then on top of all that... the food is very good. I got a simple pizza slice and devoured it so mad I didn't get two slices. The menu has lots of options and everything looks great.“
