23 Best American Restaurants in New Brunswick

“My wife and I Tried Buns n Shakes today for the first time . It was delicious. Especially when my wife says something is delicious it’s off the chain. She is extremely hard to please with new foods. I’ve struck out many times lol. Highly recommend Buns n Shakes . We’ll definitely go back.“

“Always an amazing experience. I live in JC and I don’t mind driving 38minutes down to NB just so that I can be here. Keep up the good work.👍“

“We got the Bratwurst at the New Brunswick Oktoberfest. Best I ever had and I've been going to them all over the tristate area for 25 years.“

“I have been here a total of 3 times in the last month & they have messed up my order every time… either the wrong order completely or missing items… add that to the usual lunch hour wait & yes… they need to improve the customer experience..“

“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 ??‍♀️“

“Very bad customer service. I visited the one Infront of the train station in New Brunswick. Food is good but very bad customer service. Delay in making the order unfortunately I missed my train. They doesn’t even understand basic language English. Very bad service.“

“I really enjoyed the Greek salad I ordered for a team lunch. The feta tasted very fresh and flavorful. Others in my group also complimented the quality of the paninis and wraps that they sampled. The service was friendly and efficient. Highly recommend!“

“I’ve been coming to Deltas for abt 4 years. The food is great and reasonably priced. However, I immediately sensed a different vibe in the atmosphere. Not bad…just different.“

“Just had my Aunt’s 80th birthday celebration at SLS and the experience could not have been better. From the planning with Judy to the day of party execution with Jane. Even the owner Mark stopped by to check in. The room was warm, the service was impeccable and the food was excellent for all 40 guests - which is no small feat. We highly recommend Stage Left and their sister restaurant Lombardi’s. A great place to make some life long memories.“

“My favorite meal at Stuff Yer Face is the Turkey Club Boli with a side order of chicken tenders with their homemade honey mustard. Yum!“

“good food and great idea for a place.“

“Super Hot wings.. Try Super dull. Good thing I had hot mustered packs left over from YUMMY YUMMy to salvage it. :(“

“Me and my friend Sarina come here in the morning after our run. The man and woman behind the counter are so nice and the egg and cheese IS AMAZING!! The best after run breakfast ever. The fruit smoothies are also so good! Come here ASAP! The price was really good and reasonable.“

“Best ever pizza one can find in whole NJ. Try once and you will be hooked forever. Highly recommend!!!“

“Harvest Moon is a fantastic spot if you’re craving hearty, well-executed comfort food. The burnt onion burger was cooked perfectly—juicy, flavorful, and with just the right amount of caramelized onion richness that really elevated every bite. The corned beef sandwich was also a standout, packed with great flavor and clearly made with quality ingredients.

On top of the food, the service was fast and attentive, making the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. Definitely a place worth coming back to if you’re in the mood for satisfying, well-made classics.

Addionally there was no wait for a table“

“Went to stop by a local cafe and saw this place! My nerdy DnD mind saw the fantasy styled tavern and absolutely decided to go! The food was delicious and it says a lot as I don't usually eat veggie burgers when I'm out. The fries were crispy and seasoned with greatness. Our server was awesome he was on par and made sure we were good. Will stop by again!“

“We had such a good waiter, bartender ( Tom) the place was quiet and the food was outstanding. from chicken dumplings to miso tofu soup, noodles chicken dishes. and a wonderful dessert Mochi tempura! great service, very good food! We will be returning ♡♡♡“

“This restaurant was worth the wait! Pros- the Sticky Asian Ribs were amazing ab do also enjoyed the Seared Ahi Tuna. The server was pleasant and the ambiance was nice. Cons- the Boom Boom Shrimp batter was too heavy for my liking and I didn’t like the flavor. There’s no parking lot dedicated to the patrons so you have to lay a meter and mine didn’t work.“

“My first time going was today for the start of restaurant week to celebrate a friends birthday. Although there was only one woman working the bar and trying to take care of tables alone (she was very pleasant and was doing her best) I still enjoyed my time there. I must say the special three course meal was outstanding for restaurant week. The roasted pear and arugula flatbread was outstanding and should be added to the regular menu. The entree was great and the crème brûlée dessert was exceptional. Chef Shannon came out to talk to us as we were the first customers for restaurant week to try the special menu items. He created the dishes and we let him know everything was delicious. My only complaint was they needed more staff on hand to be able to keep up with the amount of patrons.Someone finally came to assist the young lady who was working alone but she could have used two additional people when they opened. will prolly b bck again before the week is over for the special before it’s off the menu.“

“This place is the best Dominican Food in town. Their Pernil is delicious and crunchy. Everything is savory. Made and taste like and by a true Dominican 🇩🇴. Owners are super friendly too! Definitely check this place out if you’re thinking about it.“

“Great atmosphere and great food! Beautiful girls and great music!“

“I was at Old Man Rafferty’s for a repass dinner when a server accidentally spilled food on my partner’s shirt and jacket. The manager was kind, professional, and immediately took care of everything. They covered the dry cleaning, and when the stain didn’t come out of the shirt, they reimbursed us for the very same day I asked.\n\nAccidents happen, but what stood out was how quickly and graciously the manager resolved it. (Rachel) \n\nI highly recommend this establishment for its excellent food and truly outstanding customer service.“

“I ordered Mexican pastries and bread from this location. The servers were nice and the place is wheelchair accessible (do not know the bathroom situation). There are some high counters but you can basically see all the food available through the glass. The actual breads were pretty yummy and fresh.“
