“First time stopping in. The food was great. And the price was very reasonable. The place has great atmosphere, clean & so much to choose from. Staff was super friendly. Especially Brooks, who went above & beyond helping us try decide what to order. I'm not kidding when I say everything looked so good. He kindly gave different suggestions. He took time to explain different options, what they were and how they were made. Any questions or requests we had were met with nothing but kind responses. Will definitely be back!“

“What great service at this location. Between our waitress Diamond and GM Natasha, we can’t say enough about them.“

“This place was fantastic! My husband and I went there on a whim. And we are so glad that we did. We love the ambience, it looks like a country cottage. And the service was awesome. She was there to make us comfortable and happy.....which she did. And the food was the piece de resistance . We had stuffed zucchini blossoms for our appetizer and they were perfect. Then we got a salad, of which the house dressing is the way to go. And then we had an order of snow crab legs that were PHENOMENOL! And we also ordered the Pasta dish which had deep sea scallops and shrimp with a vodka sauce over angel hair pasta. Which was also incredibly good. We left there feeling very happy and satisfied! Thanks Country Cottage! We DEFINETLY will be back. =)“

“I already enjoyed going to this place but stopped sitting by the bar because one of the bartenders wasn’t so friendly so when ever I go my group just sits at a table. Went in on Sunday with some friends and decided to give the bar seating another shot. So glad I did because we got Amber and she was a DOLL!! Amber recommend a great drink off the new Spring menu and it was 10/10.I will definitely start sitting at the bar again when ever she’s working.“

“I wanted to take a moment to recognize our waitress Bea for the outstanding service she provided. She was friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming from the moment we sat down. She anticipated our needs, made excellent recommendations, and handled everything with professionalism and a positive attitude. Bea’s attention to detail and warm personality made our dining experience truly enjoyable. It’s clear she takes pride in her work, and her exceptional customer service deserves to be recognized and appreciated. The manager Alanah came by as well to make sure everything tasted good and asked about our day. Great place to eat and chill at.“

“High Life Skii Club held a 60th anniversary party on Nov 1 with 99 members attending. With an assorted buffet menu and a live band, our members had a memorable evening in the private room of Tavern 73. The cash bar was very busy, and people raved about the food as they left this 4-hour event. Special thanks to Kaya and Gail for the excellent job they did to help to organize and execute this event. They were Best! Thank you, Tavern 73. High Life will not forget you!“

“I’ve been to Gigi’s Cafe two times. Each time I walked satisfies with the food and service. Took the trip from NYC and it was well worth it. Will be going back again and this time with more people so that they can see how wonderful this place is. Parking for customers is the cherry on top.“

“I held a celebration of life in the private dining room. In addition to the food being plentiful and delicious the wait staff were all excellent. I would recommend the Cloverleaf for any special occasion function as well as regular dining. They provided the best venue possible“

“Great breakfast variety and good service.“

“They handled our son's graduation party and we heard nothing but great things from our guests. Quick setup before and the food selections were all fresh and outstanding. Would absolutely recommend them!“

“Place is great and solid. They make the best breakfast in town, too bad they aren't open earlier but I guess to keep quality the chef/owner need to sleep or be with their families at some point unfortunately for us hungry customers. Burgers, dogs,gyros, turkey sandwiches, and Italian ice recommended.“

“Amazing place! Owner, food and service wow!!!“

“Decided to stop in after a tour visit to Montclair University and receiving a gift card for Christmas. Everything was delicious. We ordered brisket fries,cheese fries, smash patty melt, Montclair Blue Burger, build your own burger and 3 shakes. Everything was amazing including the burger buns (fluffy and airy). I wish they were closer to us, Old Bridge could definitely use a really good burger place.“

“best place ever I enjoy there food I moved out of Paterson nj 4 years ago ever time I come to nj to visit my mom I stop there. great people great food“

“Great place to be great people“

“Hidden Gem with Amazing Flavors and Generous Portions

I can’t say enough good things about this place. Though it might be easy to overlook because of the location, it’s absolutely worth finding parking for, even if you’re coming from a bit further away. The portion sizes are huge for the price—this delicious meal was only $15, and the flavor is out of this world. The meat was so tender, it literally fell apart, and every bite just kept getting better. You can taste the love and care in every dish. It’s one of those spots that may not be packed yet, but once people discover it, I’m sure it’ll be the next go-to. Do yourself a favor and check it out!“

“I haven’t been to The Barn since my kids were young, but we visited Abma’s farm today for the hayride with my daughter and granddaughter and stopped at The Barn for dinner after. What a delight! The staff were so welcoming and child-friendly. I have never been anywhere as child-friendly in Bergen County. Their outside seating area is perfect for families with young children in tow. Thank you for a wonderful dining experience.“

“oh my god it's been 4 months since my husband and myself poped in for breakfast on our weekend getaway, and I CANNOT stop thinking about how AMAZING the food was.... looks like another 9 hour trip is in our near future 😭😍 p.s. get the pancakes🫶🏻“

“What a cool place! Tons of food options to choose from. Took me a while to place my first order not having ever been here before so I made sure to take home plenty of take out menus for my next order. The atmosphere was very inviting and welcoming. Can’t wait to try all the different items“

“We dined at Robert’s for the first time. We were celebrating a relative’s birthday. The food was outrageous! The appetizers were amazing as were all of the entrees. I had chicken stuffed with mushrooms and I can honestly say that it was the best chicken I have ever eaten. The portions were plentiful. We had a large selection of desserts to choose from at the end of the meal. I chose one particular dessert but before mine came out, I asked if I could exchange it for one that someone in our party had in front of her. No problem. They accommodated me and it was beyond delicious. Also, the staff was very attentive during our whole meal. They could not have been any better. The only negative was the fact that there was also another birthday celebration going on at the same time and it was so noisy that we couldn’t hear each other talk. Despite that, I wouldn’t hesitate to return to this fabulous restaurant.“

“Lovely place with a warm staff and delicious food!“

“Service was quick
Employees were cheerful and enjoyable
Food was very tasty seasoned correctly
I had to beef in Chinese vegetables, large amounts of beef selection vegetables could’ve been better
The barbecued boneless spareribs were out of this world!!
The chicken fried rice in the how special fried rice is perfect
Then don’t leave without their homemade mustard😀“

“Popped into Henry's Fine Foods to get take out sandwiches for my sister and I to get sandwiches to bring to my Mom's place. The have a descent sized seating area and a large we selection of convenience items.

We ordered BLTs and Grilled Cheese. Sandwiches were great and the 2 Team Members were wonderful !!!

They have a parking lot on Bloomfield Avenue which is a HUGE BONUS !!!“

“Excellent everything! I will definitely be back! I went for lunch alone, which was great. I would also recommend for group dinner, date meal, business meeting! Atmosphere is classic and comfortable. Every food item on my plate was flavored very well and could stand on its merit while still merged to a great meal.“

“the whole menu is impressive! it was hard to make a choice. all of their sides are really creative. the food was hot, fresh and we look forward to our next visit already. the specials all sounded fantastic and creative too.“

“We just ate there for the first time at the Warren location. We were surprised how busy they were on a Sunday since they are near an office complex. I had a burger, onion rings and a chocolate milk shake. All 3 were delicious. My husband had the hot pastrami and French fries. Both were excellent. We highly recommend.“
