“We had a repast for a family member and everything was fabulous! Setting up all the details with Lynn was seamless. Staff were friendly and very attentive to our needs. Food was absolutely amazing! We can't thank you enough! Highly recommend!“

“Jersey Boys Kitchen is a typical halal place with some extra offerings. I had the chicken platter on my visit and also ordered a buffalo chicken slice. The slice was good, but it was not as spicy as other buffalo chicken slices that I've had before. The chicken platter was good. The chicken itself was a bit dry and when tasted without the white sauce was somewhat bland. All together the platter tasted very good and the portion was as you would expect from a halal place—big. The service was quick and easy. There wasn't a memorable interaction, but my food came out quick and was packed correctly with utensils. All in all, this was a good place to eat with some room for improvement.“

Friendly staff, delicious Beyond Burger wrap w sweet potato tots, and a deeeeelish freshly made strawberry lemonade. Highly recommend! I’m keeping this place in my fav saves. If I’m ever back in Newark NJ I’m def stopping back. That drink was so perfect for the hot day!“

“NY Fries was incredibly delicious, loved the Poutine with Pulled Pork BBQ and Cheese Curds. Went to Canada a year ago Jul. where I ate some different types of Poutine. NY Fries does it great. I hope more locations pop up in NJ. I'll be coming back to try more things.“

“Jenn did such an amazing job taking care of me at Ruby Tuesday! It was my first time visiting The Mills at Jersey Gardens, which you can imagine is a very overwhelming experience (especially in December!). I decided to come to Ruby Tuesday to figure out a game plan & decompress and she was nothing short of kind, responsive, and prompt!! I would definitely come back to Ruby Tuesday for Jenn’s service and kindness(:“

“Arrived on path and searched “food near me” saw the pictures of the wings and immediately decided to go here and it lived up to the rating. Everything was delicious, the wings were perfectly crunchy but still very juicy. The sauces were great with garlic parm being my favorite. The chimichurri burger was excellent and the beer batter rings were delicious. Ice cold beer would’ve took everything over the top but a jarrito was a great second choice. Will definitely come back whenever I’m in the area.“

“Delicious food. Great service by Sydney! It started with amazing honey bread at the table. Flatbreads yum, especially the one with fig topping. Muscles, tuna tartare, noodle flush, brussel sprouts, calamari salad, and more! All yum! Would absolutely go there again. We had 8-10 people and the service was excellent.“

“Sat at the bar and CT was serving. She provided awesome service !“

“Stopped be for a preflight bite and a mimosa. Both breakfasts were delicious. Coffee was great. Prosecco is n top. Rosemary was behind the bar, so friendly.“

“New Providence Bar and Kitchen was the perfect place for my wife and I to celebrate our anniversary. We came for lunch and immediately the staff made us feel very welcome. The menu, from the drinks to the entrees, put a fun spin on familiar dishes—just enough to be unique without deviating too much from traditional favorites. The calamari appetizer with chili peppers and capers was the best I’ve ever had— flavors were amazing. The Parmesan-crusted salmon was also tasty and my wife loved her meal too. A wonderful experience!“

“Great atmosphere for a delicious steak dinner & crab cakes! # 1 steak dinner. Good music & great service!!!“

“My husband and I recently had our wedding here and our experience here has always been pleasant.All the employees were very helpful, kind and professional. The managers were very honest and we appreciated them so much. Special thanks to Stephania for running the show and Tara for taking care of me the whole night. I could not have asked for a better venue. Small mishaps did not matter because the staff was on it and had several backup plans. They made my wedding day amazing ♥️.“

“excellent food and customer service always“

“Highly recommend! We had our wedding at Galloping Hill Golf Course in the summer of 2025. The day was everything we could have hoped for and everything went so smooth! We worked with Emily throughout the process and she was great to communicate with. Any questions were answered right away. We wanted a venue that had both inside and outdoor options and loved that it had a covered patio for use all night. Ellis was our day of coordinator and both of our bridal attendants made the day run so smooth. Our guests loved cocktail hour and dinner. There was a great amount of food we went with the seafood station, pasta, Brazilian, and Chinese. We also did the breakfast sandwiches to go for the end of the night! The golf course made great photo backgrounds as well. We had the best time and would do it all over again if we could!“

“We chose Paragon Tap and Table to meet up with great friends who had moved out of state. Hadn't seen them in a year and it was the perfect setting! Service was excellent, from our arrival, thru dinner and even as we were leaving. Staff and managers were all present and engaged in making our dining experience the best it could be. Food was great. The table had fried calamari, a burger with fries, fish tacos and surf & turf tacos. All were delicious. Desserts were far from boring and we devoured them! Beers with dinner were equally good! A great evening all around! Highly recommend!“

“Delicious food and best service“

“Food is decent for a place such that but once you look inside hygiene of the place isn’t inviting 🥴 so if you order your food not leaning into window you will enjoy it but if you glance a bit condition of kitchen you might think twice“

“I honestly loved Keepers. The vibe is incredible… it feels cozy and cool at the same time and the space is perfect whether you go for breakfast brunch or dinner. The dining room is beautiful too the décor is so well done and the whole place just feels really inviting.

The service was amazing and the food was honestly so good. And I have to say this… the best sangria I’ve ever had was here. I asked for a sweet sangria and they made it exactly how I like it and OMG it was delicious.

Such a great spot… I can’t wait to go back.“

“Hard to beat the beautiful view year round, great food at excellent prices and fabulous drinks served up by an excellent team. Was there today for lunch. THEY ARE OPEN YEAR ROUND. You wont regret trying it.“
