New American Restaurants near Pitman, NJ

“Lula is a gracious host with friendly staff and great food. We just had a party of 18 and they just crushed it with the service, the food, and the atmosphere during a very busy night. Highly recommend for your parties or just grabbing a nice dinner before a show.“

“This place has a nice, relaxed vibe, great food with good prices. We just had light appetizers including crab bisque, salad, chicken tenders and bread. The bisque was creamy and flavorful, the vinaigrette was tasty, and the bread soft and warm. We can't wait to go back and try more offerings!“

“This past year I had to private events at Lamp Post, one brunch, one dinner. I can't begin to say how wonderful both was. The staff goes well above and beyond with everything and the food was great. You can't beat the price.“

“The service is good but the busers are aggressive when one person is still eating you might want to tell your Hispanic buser not to come and interrupt the meal to clear plates away when the dining room is nearly empty that's why we don't come on Christmas Eve they damn near throw us out“

“I hired Dominic's Tavern Food Truck for a Floodproofing.com company event at Pine Tavern Distillery and we couldn't be more pleased with the food and the service. We had close to 50 employees attend and Chris and his team happily accommodated the long line of hungry people! We look forward to working with them again and hiring them for future events!“

“My husband and I were looking for something to get into on a Saturday night so we learned of Essie's by calling another entertainment restaurant in town that was closed for the night. We got to Essie's and was amazed at how upscale, clean, and close to home it was for us. The food was delicious as can be and the music was wonderful. Since we just walked in we were seated in the bar area at a table by the window. The whole vibe was on point for us. We were given a tour of the upstairs lounge which was empty that night bec no one had booked it for anything. Still it was beautiful as well as classy for giving a small to medium gathering of friends for a party or get together. The bathrooms were fashionably modern, beautiful, clean, and smelled great! We peeked into the stage area dining room to get a look since we weren't able to sit in there since all the tables were booked. It was very nice and classy. I can't wait to go back. Next time I'll be booking reservations for a dinner when they have live entertainment so we can sit in the stage area dining room and enjoy some live entertainment and another delicious meal. I'm so glad we found this spot. Now it will be our go to restaurant when we want to get out and hear some great soulful music. Way to go Essie!!! :)“

“My family had reservations for 2 pm on Thanksgiving. We were a few minutes early, but were sat promptly at 2. A gentleman approached us and gave us water and bread. A few minutes later our fabulous server Fey greeted us. The food was done perfectly, served hot and was delicious. Thank you Adelphia's for a wonderful meal. Happy Thanksgiving!🦃“

“Absolutely great for large parties, Baptism and weddings food is amazing and also newly remodeled“

“Thank you to your wonderful staff for making my family birthday luncheon so special. We came dressed for Christmas and were greeted by Buddy the elf and heard Santa behind the door. Our children loved it all and even got pics with them both. The drinks and food were awesome and we were able to bring some home for more enjoyment. Our server was excellent and very attentive. This was my first time but it definitely will not be my last.“

“Huge bowl for a reasonable price! The lemon couscous was delicious, as were all the ingredients I ordered for my bowl, and temperature was perfect. Dressing was also well drizzled, not dumped on like a lot of places. Definitely going to order from here again.“

“The shrimp, fries, and wings were SO GOOD. The staff was so friendly. I had a great time I was there 2-3 weeks ago.“

“Griffin was the best bartender ever. On top of things and very attentive. 10/10 recommend. Will be coming back in the future on Thursdays!“

“I was a little nervous given the mixed reviews, but was pleasantly surprised! I got the harvest bowl with tofu (rice, sweet potato, arugula, raisins, almonds, pumpkin seeds, dressing) and it was flavorful and felt healthy. $20 for a bowl isn’t great, but it’s probably healthier than the other food offered at the airport 🤷‍♀️ Updated from previous review on 2025-12-25“
