“John is great and always has a smile on his face and is super nice and friendly , highly recommend for party’s or a just to go hang out place!“

“Today was our second time getting take out, ordered two different dishes and both were excellent as were the two we got a week ago. They "get it" when it comes to balanced flavor, variety of veggies and even the way they cut them with a special slicer was perfect. Truly Thai is now our go-to Thai food destination. I hope it doesn't change and they keep up this quality.“

“I recently visited this place, and as usual, it was quite busy. They offer a much wider variety of ice cream flavors compared to other places. We tried the Toasted Coconut and Almond Coconut flavors, and both were rich, creamy, and full of flavor. The staff was very kind, helpful, and provided excellent customer service. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious ice cream. 🍦🥥“

“Cones & Crepes is a beautiful dessert spot in East Brunswick. My kids love this place.They can’t get enough of it.
Their crêpes are made fresh to order, with a great selection of toppings and fillings, from classic Nutella and strawberries to more decadent options. The ice cream and milkshakes are also a hit—rich, creamy, and full of flavor.
There are also other shops and restaurants in the campus.Whenever we come in this area to eat this has to be the dessert place.“

“The mango sticky rice here is phenomenal! I love Icy Melon sm! There’s always less people than Mango Mango and the food always comes out so quick and good. My bf and I come here at least once a week and everything is always so delicious.“

“Such a good place! Everything was delicious and they have a very unique menu. They make these bubble waffle cones fresh per order that are delicious and the prices are great. Staff was super super friendly. My family of 5 was very pleased. I live in NYC and will definitely be back. Thank you speakfreezy ❤“

“Saffron in Piscataway offers an exceptional Indian dining experience, blending authentic flavors with an elegant ambiance. The diverse menu, welcoming staff, and beautifully crafted dishes make it a must-visit for food lovers!“

“Jason is honestly one of the main reasons going to Rita’s Ice is such a good experience. From the second you walk up, he’s friendly in a way that doesn’t feel forced or fake—he actually seems like he enjoys being there and talking to customers. It makes a big difference, especially compared to places where workers just rush you through the line.

What really stands out is how helpful he is. If you’re not sure what flavor to get, he’ll give suggestions or let you try samples without making you feel like you’re being annoying. He knows the menu really well and can recommend combinations that actually end up being really good. You can tell he cares about people leaving happy with what they ordered.

He’s also super efficient. Even when there’s a long line, he keeps things moving without making anyone feel rushed. He balances speed with good service, which isn’t easy to do. Plus, he pays attention to small details, like getting orders right the first time and making sure everything looks good before handing it over.

Overall, Jason just makes Rita’s a better place to go. It’s not just about getting ice—it’s about the experience, and he definitely improves that. People remember service like that, and it’s the kind of thing that makes you want to come back.“

“Causeway Ice Cream is still one of the best things about South River! Before my visit I saw their post about the World Cup special flavors and I knew that I needed to try them!! The same delicious ice cream I grew up eating and the flavor instantly brings you back to your childhood!! The Portuguese seradura and the Brazilian brigadeiro were absolutely out of this world!! I only wish I could've brought some of it back to Texas! Definitely a stop worth making time for!!“

“Love the place Great selection Great service“

“Big portions and super fresh ice cream! Service staff rocks!“

“🍦 Five Stars for a Sunday Sweet Spot!
We dropped by this Cold Stone late Sunday evening, and it was the perfect, low-key end to our family weekend. Since it wasn't crowded, the staff was incredibly patient with my kids as they picked out their favorite mix-ins.
The store was spotless, the service was friendly, and the ice cream was as rich and creamy as ever—nothing beats a fresh waffle bowl when you have the place almost to yourself. It was a great, stress-free treat for the whole crew. We’ll definitely be back!“

“We recently had my daughter’s soccer team lunch here on a Sunday afternoon. I spoke with the manager on duty the evening prior and it couldn’t have gone smoother. We had the whole top floor to ourselves. Service was amazing as was the food. We sometimes have issues splitting checks because the girls want to sit together away from their parents but they handled it with ease. I’m still dreaming of the delicious ice cream that was the cherry on top of a great experience.“

“One of the best places for dessert. Great people, great ices, great service“

“A good, clean,fun & family friendly restaurant and ice cream shop!“

“Yum for the whole family!!! They’ll blow you away with the flavors and large array of selections. Lexie crafted the tastiest most well balanced coke float I’ve had in a long while.👏🙌🙌👏 Be back soon!!“

“Very authentic gelato!! This coconut is so smooth and refreshing, it taste like an actual coconut. I love how there’s real coconut flakes in the gelato, I can tell they use natural ingredients. Thank you Stanley for your kind service!“

“The Gelatis are the best! Usually there’s a wide variety of ice flavors, lemon being my favorite!👍“

“Dari Delite is seriously one of the best local ice cream spots around! The ice cream is delicious, the portions are generous, and there are so many flavors and toppings to choose from. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and the whole place has such a nice, classic local feel. It’s the perfect spot to stop by with friends or family when you’re craving something sweet. Definitely recommend giving them a try you won’t regret it! 🍦🤍“

“So my family ordered sundaes. We didn't realize how generous the portions were. The quality of the ingredients was very good. We took home what we couldn't finish. The young lady that took care of us was very quick and efficient. She definitely needs a raise.“

“I used to come here with my little girl. She’d consistently get a vanilla cone with cherry dip. That was her favorite. She’d always let me have a bite (in exchange for a bite of whatever I had, of course).

I love you Lilly“

“Tiny location, packs a pearl.... comedy. ?I love their Thai Tea Boba and their waffles are amazing ?? whether you like croffles or their house made (?) batter. All smoothies I've had have been delicious as well as their Dolgona(hope I'm spelling that right) coffee boba! SUPPORT THIS BUSINESS??tons of parking btw!“

“Went to get my husband's birthday cake last minute, they we're so nice and understanding and didn't complain about the rush. They even put a note on the cake for me and also was able to get a number candle too! The woman on register was really knowledgeable about the selections and exactly where to find what I needed!! Thanks Carvel,!!“

“Love them. Close to work I love ❤️ perusing shops and decompressing during lunch. Restaurants are amazing“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Loved It!

I stopped in for a quick bite and ended up having some of the best tacos I’ve ever had. The barbacoa tacos were incredible—super tender, flavorful, and packed with just the right amount of spice. You can tell the meat was slow-cooked with care. The tortillas were fresh and warm, and everything was topped off with fresh cilantro and onions, just how I like it.

The service was friendly and fast, and the whole place had a great vibe—laid-back but clean and welcoming. If you’re anywhere near this spot and love tacos, do yourself a favor and try the barbacoa. I’ll definitely be back!“

“I've tried a couple of mochi donuts here and they are all amazing! Not too sweet and the flavors all hit the mark. I've recently stopped by and noticed they had Christmas themed donuts, which is think is so cute, they would be great to bring to a party or to gift to someone.“

“This ice is great! And the family service is amazing! Thanks for your help in getting me started with my cart.“

“Humble establishment... she made my kids feel so welcomed... can't wait to go back... please visit 💛“

“Honestly, this place is a complete gem. I've lived in the area for close to a decade and finally made the trip on over. The ice cream was delicious and well priced with very friendly and attentive staff. It's time for me to make up for lost time and make this a monthly excursion.“

“I had a great experience at Pineberry Juice Bar in Plainfield! The atmosphere was clean, welcoming, and full of positive energy from the moment I walked in. The smoothies and juices tasted incredibly fresh, and you can tell they use high-quality ingredients. Everything was flavorful, refreshing, and made with care.

The staff was friendly, patient, and helpful when recommending drinks, which made the visit even better. It’s the perfect spot if you’re looking for healthy options that still taste amazing. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending this place to friends and family!“

“Love love love love love love this place and their customer service wouldn't get ice cream anywhere else. Super family orientated.

“Went here this afternoon and the gentleman at the window was so nice, patient and accommodating. He even has dog biscuits at the window for your pup! I don’t have a dog but I appreciate the gesture. I’m thinking he might be the owner but I’m not sure. Definitely 10/10 Will return!“

“Just tried Happy Dayz ice cream in Edison - really good! Great selection of flavors - traditional American, sorbet, and some Indian flavors as well (and two sugar free!) Friendly service and fun atmosphere! Open late, even on a Wednesday. (Not to mention cheaper than Carvel) I recommend - go give it a try!“

“Visited Kwality Ice Cream and had a really great experience! The Badshahi Kulfi Falooda was the standout — rich, creamy, refreshing, and full of authentic flavors. The pani puri was also super tasty with crispy puris and a perfect spicy-tangy pani. The paan was fresh and made for a nice finish.

Special mention to Madhuram, the owner, for the warm hospitality and friendly service that made the visit even better.

Tip: ask them to mix Pudina and Khata Meetha pani with a little black salt — it takes the taste to another level! Also, if you prefer better flavor, request room temperature pani instead of very cold :)

Definitely a place worth visiting for authentic Indian desserts and street food!“

“Just left there and met the owner. Everytime I stop there the Vibes are 💯💯💯. Service is ❤️❤️❤️. Seems like she cares or they care about heir employees. 😎😎😎😎😎Love“
