“I stopped by RU Hungry recently, and I’m so glad I did! The food is absolutely delicious — fresh, flavorful, and made to order. I had one of their signature fat sandwiches, and it was packed with everything you could want in a comfort meal: crispy fries, juicy chicken, and just the right amount of sauce. You can really tell they take pride in what they serve.

The staff was friendly and efficient, even with a steady stream of customers. The vibe is laid-back and welcoming — perfect for a quick bite or a late-night craving.

If you’re in Newark and looking for something filling and satisfying, RU Hungry is the spot. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Dishes are not consistent. My meatloaf was burned so badly they put a lot of BBQ sauce on it to cover it up. This was done despite the fact that I requested no sauce. Next time I requested one blackened whiting dish and was given fried whiting.“
