“We feel so lucky to have had Judy cater our wedding (Masker’s Barn, 90 guests). I had never had anything catered in my life and Judy was so patient addressing all of my questions. All the food looked and tasted delicious. Among the guests' favorite dishes: Mini potato pancakes, honey glazed salmon filets (my favorite), stuffed shells with marinara sauce, oven-roasted baby potatoes. Judy was also able to accommodate my last minute requests for gluten free servings. Her staff were efficient and proactive and the way they arranged my mom’s desserts made her so happy. We look forward to working with her again!“

“I had the pleasure of dining at Estime Cafe today, it was an outstanding experience! From the moment we walked in, the customer service was phenomenal, warm, attentive, and truly welcoming. This is the first Haitian restaurant I’ve visited that delivered such impeccable service, and it made all the difference. The atmosphere was inviting, and the food was authentic, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every dish was prepared with care, bringing out the rich, bold flavors of Haitian cuisine. Whether you’re a longtime fan of Haitian food or trying it for the first time, this place is a must-visit. I highly recommend for anyone looking for a fantastic meal and a top-tier dining experience. My husband and I will definitely be returning!“

“I love having a Dominican bakery so close. Everything we’ve had there has been FABULOUS!!! Honestly, some of the best coconut macaroons I have ever had and that includes ones I’ve had in DR. I had a coconut tree leches cake, and a strawberry short cake cup, which were both out of this world. The cold brew is so good, and the pumpkin sauce is on point. They’re also super friendly. Next time I need to try the pastelitos (empanadas).“

“seriously the best cuban restaurant in jersey. omg 😲 👌😍😋😋😋“

“I go there once a month to see my friend The Doms play there! Super clean, friendly, and occasionally the dog “Bronco” is there! He’s the sweetest dog ever! But definitely a friendly atmosphere! Highly highly recommend! Even if it’s just for a coffee, tea, or latte.. they have it! “The house of coffee crack!”“

“Stopped here before heading back to Long Island. Such a calm, relaxed, and comfy environment. The homemade pop tart was wonderful, the hot chocolate was like a liquid chocolate bar, and the latte was perfect. Thanks for an enjoyable bit of time before our travels back home!“

“We booked this for Valentine's Day evening. We are visiting from the northeast. We had the prefix menu and everything they served us was exquisite. Service was impeccable and it was very romantic. It's not in the very best of neighborhoods, but the building itself is stunningly gorgeous, and the interior even more so.“

“Great food and friendly service!!!“

“The Barista is welcoming and made us smooth chocolate drinks! I gratefully enjoyed our pastries; the tastes are extraordinary, fresh, warm, salty sweet. Truly like nothing I have ever had in NJ! I felt my tastebuds transported to appreciate the combination of fruits, nuts, sugar, spice…I can’t wait to try the new Spring menu with another delicious drink. We are simply blessed to have The Simple Fare in Millburn🙏😋“

“Beautiful...Westfield Station Cafe is truly a Westfield is wonderful! The food was absolutely amazing my wife, and I enjoyed it very much. Everything was delicious, and you can really feel the love that goes into the food. Highly recommend!“

“Domenick & John—

We stopped in for a late breakfast/early lunch today, and it reminded us why we keep coming back. The food was wonderful, but what truly stood out was the staff. Every single person was warm, welcoming, and genuinely friendly—not just to us, but to everyone who walked through the door. It's rare to see a team that consistently makes every guest feel so appreciated.

We've visited many times for coffee and takeout, but after dining in today, we felt it was important to let the owners know what an exceptional team they have. Great service like this deserves to be recognized.

We will definitely be at a future dinner pop-up!

Thank you for creating such a welcoming place. It's businesses like this that keep people coming back, and we'll definitely continue to be regulars.

“Even after living here so long, NJ remains full of surprises. Rosa's is a spot that feels impossible - in between two doors at the Toyota service center, they're serving food that tops most diners I've been to. It almost feels like it shouldn't exist. Love that, Thank you for the great eats! I'll be back!“

“Amazing matcha bubble tea and latte that was better than any other matcha latte I've ever had before. I've had a lot of matcha so if you can trust me on this one. Talked with the owner Ying and barista Jesse for some time and they were both great ❤. The cafe itself has a very good esthetic with a cute teddy bear in the corner. Definitely a must try for any latte and bubble tea lovers 😋.“

“Boxwood Cafe is a gem! The owner has created a high quality coffee shop and the employees are very friendly. I like to stop by for a latte and a baked good (scone, cookie, or blueberry bar) and sit outside at one of the side tables. Pre-Covid, they hosted open mic night and quiz night every month. Now Steve hosts a monthly Zoom Quiz Night and it is so much fun! A great locally owned cafe.“

“Great spot for a meeting! Great food and the best coffee!“

“Amazing Cinnamon Rolls. Perfectly baked dough, not over done. Extra Cinnamon, not the cheap stuff and plenty of sweet glaze for the top.“

“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! 🇫🇷🥖🥐🥮🧁🎂💕“

Parking was super easy, parked right across the street with no problem. I got the waffle, blue splash and my friend got the jolly rancher. Very tasty omg I will be back here, wish I lived closer lol“

“I recommend all sandwiches but my favorite one is the chicken Caesar ciabatta sandwich. A salad but sandwich style. It’s so good it’s a must get. Workers there are friendly. I come here often for the corn muffins there the best I’ve ever had.“
