“Seafood Birthday Bash!

Went to this restaurant for my uncles birthday. He doesn’t eat chicken or steak so seafood is his favorite. Caldwell Seafood Market & Cafe was an obvious choice because of the pictures and the fact it was a fresh seafood market just stood out to me. It did not disappoint either! We were a group of 10 people and ordered everything our heart desired and spent $579. We ordered 3 orders of fried calamari which was nice and crispy and they even had a ginger sauce which is different. We tried the hot and spicy shrimp which had a great sauce to dip the complementary bread in. We ordered 5 bowls of New England clam chowder. I felt it was watery and not as seasoned as I am used to but we enjoyed it anyway. They forgot a bowl of soup but we won’t hold it against them. We all ordered entrees and most of us got a dessert! We left full and satisfied!

Knowing my family we love to eat and we are all reviewers at heart and are not afraid to say what we do not like. Everyone loved their food from the appetizers to the dessert and we were surprised at how fast the food came and how fresh it was. The waiter was very attentive as well. We didn’t need a reservation when we came in at 3pm and were the only ones there. Surprising it was not packed for a Saturday afternoon but started to fill up as we left.

Overall this restaurant gets a 5/5 because the experience was great, the waiter was very nice and accommodating, the food was piping hot and everyone was pleased even the kids who aren’t really seafood fans.

P.S. Below are photos of some entrees we ordered like the Red Snapper with spinach and beans, Bronzino with mash and veggies, Fish and Chips, Linguine with white clam sauce.“

“I used to like this place a lot. Last time I was there I was treated like a common criminal. The hostess even walked away with my order to make sure I didn't steal it. LoL. Weird, but I'm not going back to that location. After spending so much money there and having so many birthday parties there , to have this happen was eye opening. Zero Stars for service.“

“I've been buying fresh fish, as well as cooked fish for some years now, & have been TOTALLY satisfied. Dan is ALWAYS beyond pleasant, & meets your special requests !! ❤“

“ALWAYS delicious - I try to stop here whenever I am in the Cranford area. I’ve been a fan of this Jersey Shore style seafood joint for a couple decades. Fresh, perfectly prepared dishes that always allow the seafood to shine. Fried or broiled flounder and any kind of shrimp are a personal favorite. I always judge a restaurant by it’s side salad and here it’s never an afterthought, fresh and so tasty - they should bottle their house dressing it’s off the chart.“

“excellent service, they are very friendly and the food without a doubt, recommended.“

“great food, service, and strong drinks“

“We had an exceptional experience. This was our first time dining at Capital Grille, Whippany and it was perfect from start to finish. The food was perfectly cooked. We each got steak and it was cooked exactly as requested. The sides were delicious (creamed spinach & roasted mushrooms), the shrimp cocktail was one of the best I've had. The presentation was beautiful. We were never rushed, the pace of the dinner was relaxing and enjoyable. Our server, Luisa G. was wonderful! She was attentive without hovering, she had the perfect personality for her job, she was personable, friendly, professional and helpful. The interactions with other staff members were also very positive. We also enjoyed the quiet, sophisticated ambiance. If you're looking for a true steak house experience this is it.“

“This place is fantastic. The halal food is always excellent and I've had multiple people beg me to go back the next time they come to town. The desserts are solid and hit the spot. Sometimes the wait is a little long but it's worth it.“

“It was a wonderful experience trying Lebanese cuisine for the first time. I love everything my daughter-in-law ordered. My favorite was the Old City Platter. I got to try different things. The hummus plate was awesom❤️‍🩹“

“I ordered over the phone and immediately on the phone I knew I called the right place because the man on the phone was super nice and very patient.
When I went in for my pickup he was nice as soon as I came in and made sure I had everything I needed to depart. Loved it.“

“Recently attended a Jets cooking class! What a fun and amazing event! Thank you to the Chefs at each prep station! Really enjoyed the hands on opportunity to learn techniques! Our talented mixologist, Connor, created a delicious liquid refreshment! The main attraction, #57 Bart Scott, was fun, and besides football skills is a great cook! Who knew!!“

“Justo ahora vine, a comer empanadas, y la atención de la nena fue la Mejor, tan amable, 💕💕💕“

“I am a big sticker for fried food not being greasy and this was the first time I have ever been to this restaurant. The chicken came out HOT which is extremely important and had just the right seasoning. When I didn't see greasy chicken or the paper inside greasy I tried one and before I knew it I had eaten five wings waiting for the rest of my food. And I bought 12 pieces to take home and share. Also try the bean pie OMG I literally ate the entire thing. I purchased the small one. I don't usually eat the crust but it was so delicious.“

“Always have an excellent time and dinner at Seasons 52. The food is delicious . Shout out to our waiter Jordan. Please pass on to him he was extraordinary! He definitely is a seasoned waiter as he was professional, polite, and knew to let us eat dinner and relax. Some waiters / waitresses ask you 100 times is everything is ok. Jordan was able to read us well and gave us time to eat and relax. He helped us with our giftcard and was patient! Thanks for a great evening! We will definitely be back.“

“The food is delicious! My union had a black history dinner and Two Fish & Five Loaves catered the food! Very tasty and delicious! I don’t trust a lot soul food restaurants due to tons of sodium and grease but Two Fish & Five Loaves was just right! I will like to one day dine in. I highly recommend this place for catering!“

“excellent service. great food. having 45th anniversary there.“

“The review that I gave is based on the fact I that the two times that my husband & I was there the service was very slow, the food was just warm and we asked the server to please make sure the food is hot & during brunch the music was so loud we couldn't hear each other talk. I might also add we don't understand the strict dress code on your website after seeing everything you mentioned unacceptable was accepted.“

“Great food 😋 👌 awesome environment!!!“

“If you're looking for an upscale spot with mouthwatering dishes, look no further than this place. The food is out of this world - especially the steak. Each bite is like a slice of heaven. And the best part? They didn't rush us at all. We were able to savor every last bite without feeling pressured to finish quickly. Overall, a truly fantastic dining experience that I can't wait to repeat, but parking can be a bit tough.“

“My Step Dad Recently had went for his birthday dinner, with my mom and my step family and wanted to share they recommend this place(they don’t have social media). They had a big party of like 20 people. Food was delicious, servers and service were amazing. Everyone got their food at the same time. They were extremely happy with the restaurant.“

“One of the best dim sum restaurant in Central Jersey! Lunch time is highly recommended. On the weekend, they bring food on a cart and you can pick whatever you want to eat. Everything is so tasty and we love it! Price is very reasonable. You can also order from Entree menu, which is also delicious.
It gets very crowded on weekend lunch time, so recommend going as soon as they open at 11:30am.“

“Excellent - wonderful lunch menu with daily specials . Soups snd risottos are my favorites but the entrees are delicious and perfect amounts. The soufflés - from choc to mango - are to die for. Even the expressos are good.“

“Went here for dinner with my parents after spending the day at the NY Renaissance fair. Not only was everything we ordered delicious, but our waiter Ariel (aka AJ) was fantastic. He was super attentive, friendly and had a great sense of humor. We came when it was busy and he still checked in frequently and made sure that anything we needed was brought quickly. He went above and beyond. It's not often you come across a server who is as top notch as Ariel was. All around a great guy.“
