“We have been coming here consistently and the quality of food, service and atmosphere has been maintained.

It doesn’t matter what you order, the food tastes amazing.

The Servers deserve every cent of the tip as they are nice and make sure you feel well taken care of.

The place it self is minimal and very clean just how I prefer it.“

“Had dinner there for the second time on Saturday night! It was very memorable. The food was absolutely fantastic. I had the eggplant with the Barata for an appetizer. It was so delicious and so tasty and my main course was the homemade linguine with lump crab and corn. We also got the meatball which was spectacular and then I got the cheesecake dessert which was one of the best cheesecakes I’ve ever eaten. I absolutely love love love this place. Can’t wait to go back and eat there again.“

“All the food is under 590 calories and it's so delicious!! The lamb loin and sea bass were very filling and tasty. The golden beet salad, however, was a very small portion when shared. We also ordered a bunch of apps, honestly, order actual meals, they're more delicious.“

“Food quality is good for sure. Nice place for quiet dining. But the food portions are very small and it means you have to pay a premium per person. But given the difficulty in finding the parking around, very high parking cost for parking garage, overall price for the taste, I think it is overpriced restaurant for its overall value.“

“Delicious food great service“

“Every dish at 87 Sussex was a savory journey. From delicate Escargot Wontons and Ox & Eggs to the bold Hoppin Poppers Frog Legs and sweet Barnegat Scallops—Chef Brian has redefined luxury dining.

The Braised Short Rib melted in my mouth while the Prime New York Strip and Chef's Special brought a rich, savory finish. And for dessert? Chocolate Turtle Cake, Passion Fruit Trifle, and the refreshing Sorbet & Berries.“

“Went to yard house tonight . Great place but no atmosphere for the holidays . Every Restaurant you go to is decorated & fun .It's no joy , fun, why would you stop decorating your place . People enjoy the Xmas Decor & it's makes people feel more festive & want to drink , eat & enjoy .Big mistake not to decorate.“

“this place is a must go to. the food is amazing as well as the service and drinks. Definitely on my top 10“

“On a lark, we decided to try Luna Stella for dinner earlier this week. We caught it out of the corner of our eyes as it is tucked away slightly off the Main Street of Maplewood, but boy are we glad we found it! We happened to catch them on a live music night so we decided to sit at a bar table and while the dining room was nearly empty, the bar was full. Our waiter was attentive even with a full plate of tables and the owner came over to us several times to see how we were doing. Our drinks were very good, but the food was amazing! The chicken was pounded so thin for the Milenese and fried perfectly. The short rib pappardelle had a deep unctuous beef flavor but was not heavy at all. The pasta was cooked perfectly! We will definitely be going back!“

“Can I just say WOW!!!! Been waiting to come here for quite some time, and it far surpassed every expectation I had!! Staff was lovely! Creative, DELICIOUS appetizers... We tried several, and seriously each one was SOOO GOOD!!! I'm a huge fan of Detroit style pizza, and it was cooked to perfection! Dessert was absolutely phenomenal as well! One of the best meals I've had in some time, from start to finish! They even had live music upstairs, which was such a nice surprise! Can't wait for our next trip back!!! Thank you for a wonderful evening!“

“My partner and I love ordering from here. We live in the neighborhood and it’s so convenient to have a place like this we can walk to for something delicious at a great price. I don’t think you could go wrong ordering anything off their menu; their pizza is the perfect Jersey pizza, their burritos are huge and taste SO fresh, and their cheeseburgers are like In N Out but WAY better quality. They also have desserts and the chocolate cake I tried was great. Love Aileen’s “

“Amazing food! Come visit and support one do the best places in town!“

“I’ve had the pleasure of having Kim as my bartender and she’s the absolute best there is. Very personable , knowledgeable of what to have to eat or drink and just the best at what she does . Her experience behind the bar should never go unnoticed. I’ve been coming here for over a decade and she’s always stood out among anyone else back there.“

“Went here today, in absolute awe over how beautiful this restaurant is in the inside. Food was 10/10 and service was 10/10“

“The food and service is excellent. It is always an enjoyable evening.“

“Really enjoyed the meal (wish the chicken was a bit more savory, but the chicken and waffle is nice and a decent portion. The coffee was very good and our service was top notch.

11/17/24 had the pork belly egg and cheese, and wow, it was phenomenal. A very adult take on it.“

“Wow! Had an outstanding night at the Roxy and I think it’s been my best bite in JC.

Service was incredible, friendly, and attentive. We did go at an off peak time, so we got extra special service. However, I think at any time the service would be top notch.

The cocktails were excellent. Extremely balanced, delicious and amazingly seasonal.

The food was soooo good. I had the short rib special and I highly recommend it while it’s available. Absolutely delicious and the best short rib dish I’ve had.

I can’t wait to return!“

“Highly recommend Gus’ Last Word. This neighborhood establishment is cozy and chic at the same time. It is a perfect balance of retro and modern vibes. I was comforted by yummy chicken pot pie and unique cocktails. It has a lovely bar, with lounge areas, dining section and outdoor space. Shout out to the chefs, Christian the bartender and delightful Erin who provided great welcome, informed explanations of beverages and food, and great service. I will be back.“

“Wow, what a great restaurant ?
This was our first time here and we were blown away with how wonderful EVERYTHING was.
We went here for the wife's birthday and they had set up a special table just for the two of us.
Whoever designed the decor did a great job with the colors, etc. They made one completely forget about the surrounding neighborhood. While it's not a bad area, it's just not really picturesque by any means.
Wonderful fresh rolls and a super pesto spread started the meal. Next I had a mushroom soup to die for and definitely unlike any other I have had before.
For dinner, my wife had the pork chop which was delicious and cooked perfectly. I had the short ribs with a light brown sauce, mushrooms, spinach and mashed potatoes, which was great, to say the least.
We shared the First "mounds" which was vanilla ice cream, dark chocolate and coconut and should not be missed. Lastly I want to mention that the waiter and the rest of the wait staff were all courteous, accommodating and very professional. We felt that they were among the best we have encountered in our area by far.
We will definitely be dining here again in the coming weeks and I would suggest that anyone living in Bergen county or northern NJ should do the same. EXCELLENT ?

Parking: Parking in the back lot or on the surrounding streets.“

“We stumbled across Nico because we were staying nearby and looking for something within walking distance that had reservations available immediately as we were headed to an event at the Prudential Center. I am so happy we did. The food was excellent. Since we were in a little bit of a rush, we ordered a lot to share. The buttermilk biscuits with sweet butter were amazing. The Ceasar salad was really good. And everyone really enjoyed the Steak Frites. Our server Bridgette (sp?) was really wonderful as well. We also got to take advantage of their great happy hour so added bonus.“

“Amazing food, service, and atmosphere. 5/5“

“We discovered Mathew's just yesterday and enjoyed a great lunch with their extremely pleasant staff. We'll be back.“

“Burgers were great! Service was great!“

“Truthfully, couldn’t have been more impressed. Walked by this place so many times and kicking myself for not trying it sooner! Got the ba mi sandwich and it was better than any of the pho places in the neighborhood by miles. Super fresh bread, delicious chicken. Great ingredients. And the service was super friendly too. Will definitely be frequenting this place can’t wait to come back!“

“This was such a gem to find! As a Nigerian in America it’s not easy to find authentic and delicious food here. Not only was the owner nice and hospitable, she was generous with the portions as well! Thank God i found this place and by the grace of God I can eat it again soon!“

“Went with my kids for a date night...
Let's start off with my server. Though I forgot his name, he was top-notch, and I love great customer service.

Food: Fried Calamari- Very good
Volcano Shrimp- Very good
Dinner- Salmon- Good
Burger- Good
Noodles- Not a fan
Drinks- Dragon Fruit lemonade taste like pink lemonade“

“The food is delicious and Mihai is the best waiter!“

“What a burger!!! The National, soooooo good“

“I just celebrated a birthday and the food was delicious and bon appetit. We were delighted with sautéed spinach, salmon; Pork chop dinner and black spaghetti dinner. The waiter was superb along with his sense of humor.“

“Great place for dinner and drinks“

“Each meal I’ve had to date at Next Door Provisions has been consistently wonderful, and the casual and chic decor there (bonus points if you’re a plant or comic nerd!) married with friendly and efficient service always bring me, my family, and friends back again and again. We’ve celebrated many birthdays, reunions, and last-minute meetups at NDP, and I have never been disappointed by the food or the service. This is likely one of Jersey City’s best-kept secrets, and can rival any Michelin-starred or trendy restaurant across the Hudson. In a way, I’m glad NDP is still pretty low-key neighborhood food purveyor, but would be more than happy to see them really blow up and get the recognition and following that the extraordinary Chef Ruby deserves. Five stars, ten snaps, and five forks from me and my crew!“

“Nice outdoor patio, good food, great location.“

“I had the Vu burger which was absolutely beautiful, the accompanying salad left a fair bit to be desired but the burger made up for it, probably the best I've ever had in my life.Service was great both times I went and the views are stunning.Recommended.“

“Food was fantastic! We went for lunch and had the fried calamari, shrimp scampi and penne alfredo. Staff was attentive and friendly and brought us fresh bread with dipping oil and fritters after we were seated. Will definitely visit again. Highly recommend!“
