“Tequila Bistro Hosted One Incredible Night for Team Ed Rodriguez We recently held a meet-and-greet for Assembly candidate Ed Rodriguez at Tequila Bistro in Elizabeth—and let’s just say, Ed raved about the food beforehand, and he wasn’t wrong. From the moment we stepped into the warm, inviting space—with its glowing string lights, rich Spanish tiles, and that cozy outdoor patio—it was clear this was more than just a restaurant. It was an experience. The crowd came for conversation, but the Mediterranean and Spanish flavors stole the show. From the perfectly grilled seafood to the paella that had people going back for seconds (and thirds), every bite was unforgettable. The crab-stuffed salmon? Game-changer. And then there’s the bar—a destination in itself. Sophisticated, generous, and buzzing with good energy. The sangria flowed, the handcrafted cocktails were on point, and the vibes matched the moment. The staff made us feel like family. They handled a busy room full of guests with warmth, precision, and genuine hospitality.“

“Kebab House was a great experience overall! The staff was super friendly and welcoming from the moment we came in. My friend and I weren’t completely sure what to order, and they took the time to help us understand the different options and pick something we’d enjoy.

I’m honestly not even sure exactly what dish I ended up getting, but whatever it was, it was delicious! Everything was flavorful, fresh, and satisfying, and I’d definitely be interested in coming back to try more of the menu.

The friendly service really stood out and made the experience even better. It’s always nice going somewhere where the staff is willing to help you out, especially when you’re unfamiliar with some of the dishes.

Overall, great food, great hospitality, and a really positive experience. Definitely recommend Kebab House, and I’ll be back!“

“I had an absolutely wonderful experience at Negeen. The food honestly felt like sitting at my grandmother’s table. The Ghormeh Sabzi, Koobideh, Joojeh Kebab, and even the Ashe Reshteh tasted so authentic. Everything was perfectly seasoned, fresh, and full of love. The restaurant feels cozy with warm, tasteful decor. The husband and wife who own and run the restaurant are also incredibly kind and welcoming. They make you feel right at home, which makes the whole experience even more special. Truly a five star experience. I’ll definitely be coming back.“

“Had a terrible experience today. They gave me the wrong sandwich. Tried to call them to send me a new one but all you get is a voicemail. Emailed them and even messaged them on Instagram and they never responded. So I was stuck at work all day without any food or any reimbursement“

“I ordered a maple cold brew with pistachio cold foam from their winter menu and a few donuts. It was all delicious!“

“From start to finish, our experience was absolutely outstanding. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and every detail from the service to the food was top notch. The new owners went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, checking in throughout the evening and truly making us feel like valued guests. The chef is nothing short of incredible. Every dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. You can tell there’s a deep passion and talent behind the menu especially if you’re a fan of French Mediterranean cuisine, which was executed to perfection. Highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for an elevated yet cozy dining experience. A must visit spot that I’ll definitely be returning to!“

“I ordered a yeero with Greek fries, a dessert, and smoothies from Summit Greek Grill using UberEats. The food arrived fresh and flavorful (I adore the hint of lemon and the feta cheese for the Greek fries!). Unfortunately, our driver forgot our smoothies. I was writing it off as a loss with plans to contact Uber, when I received a phone call from the manager of the restaurant, Ali. He was emphatic that he wanted to make things right by us, took my name and phone number, and personally delivered the drinks to my door. Ali made sure to call us along the way, letting me know he closed the restaurant to bring my food. My boyfriend tried to offer him a tip as a thank you, but he denied it and even called me back to apologize that my boyfriend ran out in the cold without a jacket. I will most certainly be frequenting this restaurant often, both for the amazing food and stellar customer service! Oompah! 🇬🇷“

“the best made from scratch in house Middle Eastern food in all of central New Jersey and the owners are extremely friendly great place to either take out or casual setting get a bite inside“

“Humble seems to be the best word to summarize this restaurant. The men who run it seem to have a great rapport with their customers; they’ve been there for 20+ years and it shows. They were kind and accomodating. The food was plated carefully and was pretty taste. My only complaints were putting margarine on my pancakes without asking and the tiny plastic utensils, which left my hands covered in syrup. However both of those go to the restaurant being unpretentious. There’s no atmoshere to speak of but it was clean. I’d eat here again but probably wouldn’t go out of my way.“

“Food was awesome and fresh ! Service was even better ! Definitely coming back to try more things!“

“Fabulous dining experience at The Greek on Main! Recommended by our son! Appetizers were amazing! Fig & Goat Cheese Flatbread Haloumi Fries- Feta and roasted red pepper aioli. So good! Tomato salad!

Attentive and friendly! She knew the menu well and answered all our questions! Thank you Lovely! Bring your own alcohol! Make reservations! Highly recommend“

“friendly Atmosphere good service nice perfectly cooked portion sizes and food makes you feel like Sunday dinner with family“

“I dined in and couldn’t be more pleased with the service me and my sister received. The owner was extremely welcoming!

We ordered a mixed shawarma combo dish to share and it came with 2 appetizers. You get to choose the appetizers that you prefer & we chose baba ganoush & yogurt salad. Both appetizers made excellent dips with the bread provided.

I loved the lamb in this dish. It was flavorful. I added the yogurt salad on top for that perfect taste!

They also provide catering options for all types of events.

I will definitely recommend this place to friends and family in the area! So glad I stopped by and can’t wait to come back soon.“
