“Quite simply… the best pizza I’ve ever had & it’s not even close!!!“

“The food is good I like the oreo drink,but the order took long because people kept interrupting and this family kept on interrupting the lady that kept doing the hard work and she was doing the hard work and atleast put a extra worker to help her“

“Best pizza & cheesesteaks“

“Bagels baked fresh @ this store in back kitchen...“

“Best cheesesteaks in Somerset/Middlesex area. Consult with Nick or Maria as to their great selection of cheese, including provolone, Cooper, pepperjack and mozzarella.“

“I got a cheesesteak fries coffee and a brownie for $13. I couldn’t even finish it it was so big!! Definitely recommend“

“Went to Fresh Tiki Bar in Somerville for ice cream and wow, did not disappoint. It’s rich and creamy, you can just tell it’s made with good ingredients, not the cheap stuff. Not overly sweet either, which I loved. The tropical flavors were a fun twist, definitely not your average ice cream shop. Portions were generous too, no complaints there. Staff was super friendly and fast. Great little spot for a hot day, already thinking about my next visit. If you’re around Somerville and want something sweet, this is the move.“

“While traveling through the area, we had the pleasure of discovering a hidden gem—an up-and-coming local distillery and cocktail lounge that left a lasting impression. From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with warmth and genuine hospitality. The staff wasn’t just friendly—they were incredibly knowledgeable, taking the time to walk us through the unique distilling process behind each of their handcrafted spirits. Their passion for the craft was evident in every sip and every story. Whether you're a seasoned connoisseur or just curious about small-batch spirits, this distillery is a must-visit destination. We can’t wait to return and see how this exceptional local spot continues to grow!“

“Best and affordable vegan restaurant downtown.“

“So glad we have a place like Uncle Tanks in town! My favorite local go to.“

“From the moment we walked in, we were treated as if we were sitting in first class. The staff was so attentive to our table even though they were very busy. We were not rushed and enjoyed every savory bit of food that was put before us. They also catered to me being a vegetarian. We finished our meal with the most delicious homemade gelato . if ever given the opportunity, please do not pass this gem of a restaurant up.“

“Ribs best ones iv ever had and very good price will be back any time I am in the mood for some bbq“

“Excellent food great service never disappoints highly recommend“

“Cool electic vibes. Busy but cozy as well. I randomly was in the area and was looking for a quick latte before a meeting. This was 4 minutes away, really glad I went. Will go back again, I tried nootropic latte. It's got a cool clever twist with emphasis on neuro/ nootropic/ well being mixins.“

“Loved the food and friendly staff, large portions and great prices“

“daFilippo's is a hidden gem of a restaurant that has been my family's special occasion standard for many year's. The Northern Italian menu which changes to focus on only the freshest ingredients has a little Swiss influence and is presented with an artistic touch and personal care. Last evening I hosted sixteen business associates in the back room which has an iron gate for privacy. Filippo presented a five course meal which blew everyone away followed by him playing a few songs on the Piano. The Chicken or Cod dishes were pan seared to perfection. daFilippo's is a BYOB restaurant which I Love. My wife remarked how clean the restrooms are kept. Plenty of parking in the rear of the building. In closing, if you are looking for a family owned, unique restaurant where the owner chef touches every plate to ensure perfection then this is the place to make a reservation.“

“Not only are the burgers reasonably priced, but they are pretty darn good too. Quick service. Lots of people get take-out but you can et in diner-like setting. You can order burger from the adjacent bar, but not the other way around [no beer in the burger joint].“

“Place is amazing staff is amazing it’s kid friendly but that doesn’t mean leave your kids unsupervised to do what they please. Also if your looking to order food look no further than Bella Pizza Hillsborough their pizza is amazing!!!“

“I love this place! Chicken schwarma is sooo good! Generous portions and even the rice is yummy“

“I have to say this is the best pizza in the neighborhood. The dough is perfection, the sauce and the amount of cheese. On top of that, the Customer Service service is great. Had issues with DoorDash and Akhtar and Ryan were very accommodating

Highly recommend“

“It’s rare outside of Chinatown to find an Asian restaurant making and using their own dough (flour?) from scratch, but this is what they say at the shop and I saw them doing it!

Dumpling House is in the same space as Hawaiian Poke so they have a wide menu of Asian food spanning Japanese, Chinese, and Hawaiian. They’re in a plaza right off of Washington Valley Rd with decent parking.

I’ve ordered takeout several times and tried:
- sushi rolls
- sushi burrito
- poké bowl
- steamed dumplings

And each time it’s been decent. EDIT: I just ordered steamed dumplings and really like them as far as texture and taste! They provide soy sauce and chili oil which fit perfectly. I’d come back for these.“

“We recently had my daughter’s soccer team lunch here on a Sunday afternoon. I spoke with the manager on duty the evening prior and it couldn’t have gone smoother. We had the whole top floor to ourselves. Service was amazing as was the food. We sometimes have issues splitting checks because the girls want to sit together away from their parents but they handled it with ease. I’m still dreaming of the delicious ice cream that was the cherry on top of a great experience.“

“Amazing food. Had hummus shareable platter. Fresh ingredients and tasted amazing!!“

“Great coffee shop! Everything is organic in the shop. Love their cold brew Shandy, which you can customize with their various organic syrups throughout the entire year. Also their bacon breakfast sandwich and large crumble cookies (they have four or five different kinds) are to die for. And their organic lemonade is also awesome! And the barista’s know their stuff. I also like their grab and go organic sandwiches.“

“Fabulous service , selection And That Ice Cream !!!“

“Luna Rossa is an exceptional restaurant which is run by a loyal and dedicated team under the direction of Adrian. Our first time visiting this establishment was with a party of 10. Adrian took all of our orders including appetizers without writing anything down. The food was delivered to perfection. I am astounded by the diversity of the menu, the ability to switch out sides, the quality and taste of the food. The chefs are talented and cook to delight every palate. I can not say enough about this wonderful restaurant including their staff Carlos, Kevin, and everyone that works so hard to deliver memorable meals. I look forward to going back soon. Thank you!“

“Not a bad spot for a quick treat! I never realized how big these cookies were. Incredibly dense and filling. I loved the classic chocolate chip and also the oatmeal cinnamon thin cookies. Would definitely check out the new flavors next time!

Now for my standard comments. Location is small and well kept. Nestled by the Honeygrow with open parking.“

“This place is the most solid and consistent American Chinese restaurant in the entire New Brunswick area. Portions are fantastic and the food is always so hot and fresh. They are happy to accommodate my vegan partner by subbing tofu for meat in already vegan dishes.“

“Great space, great beer, great staff!“

“Delicious smoothies and very healthy vegan, gluten free & certificated organic food.“

“la atención y la comida es exelente“

“On an early fall night we enjoyed a wonderful meal. The waitress was very kind and food tasted very authentic and homemade. We enjoyed the casado and the tostones with piccadilio. I highly recommend you order a fruit smoothies as well. Overall, we are definitely coming back.“

“Kyma is the reason we drive 30 minutes for amazing authentic Greek cuisine. Our appetizer/small plate of smoked eggplant dip & lamb empanada with herb mint sauce was a wonderful start. Sea bass in tomato broth with potatoes & Aegean shrimp dish were perfectly prepared. We had to have the baklava with vanilla ice cream (no pic as we attacked it!). The ambience, service and food made for a beautiful meal!“

“This place is absolutely special. They have special menus and drink menus every night of the week a great happy hour and fantastic appetizers and entrées. It's a great place to hang out and watch a game or go with your family and eat. The staff is fantastic. 10 out of 10 every day of the week.“

“I recently visited JOES PIZZA and had an absolutely fantastic experience! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The staff was friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home. The pizza? Simply amazing. The crust was perfectly crispy on the outside yet soft and chewy inside—exactly what you want in a pizza. I tried their signature EGGPLANT PIZZA, and the combination of fresh ingredients and bold flavors was a delightful surprise. You can tell they use high-quality ingredients, and everything tasted so fresh. What really stood out was the variety of toppings and unique combinations. There’s something for everyone, whether you’re into classic Margherita or prefer something more adventurous. And don’t even get me started on their homemade sauces—wow! The portions were generous, and the prices were more than reasonable for the quality you get. I’ll definitely be back soon to try more from their menu. If you're in the area and craving delicious pizza,“

“The Pluckemin Inn is a lovely place with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The food is delicious, the service is friendly, and the setting is elegant and comfortable. It’s a great choice for a relaxing meal or a special occasion. Overall, a wonderful dining experience!“

“I highly recommend this place the parking at church street was convenient a 2 minute walk around the corner , the foods and drinks were top notch delicious and refreshing, if your ever looking to go out on a date night this is the place“

“Delicious protein shakes and super friendly customer service!“

“Great + fast service! Delicious“

“Carlos pizza is amazing, our absolute favorite pizzeria. We've been getting them for over 8 years. Recently I my food allergy escalated to the point where any exposure to it sends me to the ER. With that said, i haven't been able to order take out as its a major risk. I took a chance and requested them to exclude these ingredients from the pizza and to avoid cross contamination. They went the extra mile and made a safe pizza!! When you're not able to order pizza for months, this means the world lol. BIG THANKS TO CARLOS!! You rock! ❤️“

“Excellent food, friendly family business. Highly recommend! Best Chinese Food in the area!“

“Best burgers in NJ! I don’t normally do these kinds of posts, but here goes: I don’t know who rates burgers in New Jersey…but…John’s and the Genzo’s new favorite place is the Bridgewater Diner! This is direct from their menu: ‘Our gourmet burgers are made from the most exquisite blend of 100% grass-fed organic short rib, brisket, sirloin & filet mignon tips basted in homegrown jersey farm butter cooked over an open flame on a buttery, fluffy sweet milk brioche bun made fresh daily for our special burgers & sesame bun for our classic burgers. Served with cole slaw & pickle, upon request.’ When the bill was paid, they questioned where they get this meat from and they were told it’s from ‘a guy from Long Island’. Highly recommend this place gets checked out and it gets rated for the best burger in the state!“

“Yum for the whole family!!! They’ll blow you away with the flavors and large array of selections. Lexie crafted the tastiest most well balanced coke float I’ve had in a long while.👏🙌🙌👏 Be back soon!!“

“Great old fashioned diner with solid menu and very accomadating staff.“

“Fast, fresh and delicious. Friendly owners, free cans of sodas on certain days and/or if you buy a few dinners? Not positive how it works but the first time the lady told me that I was happy, that’s how you treat customers, paired with quality Chinese food and you have yourself a go to spot.“

“We don’t order or dine out much, but we highly recommend this place. It’s a hidden gem that makes Mexican food with a very traditional approach. They also use fresh products. I can’t get enough of their Raja Tamales. The owner and staff are very friendly. Give it a try.“

“Always the freshest bagels in town! I love coming here on the weekends. Never disappoints highly recommend 🤗 always get our orders right, amazing staff!!!“

“I stopped by Stewart’s recently, and wow what an experience! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with friendly smiles and that classic, welcoming atmosphere. The menu had everything I could hope for, from delicious burgers to perfectly crispy fries, and don’t even get me started on their shakes they’re thick, creamy, and absolutely delicious! You can tell the ingredients are fresh, and each item feels like it’s made with care.

The service was quick, but nothing felt rushed, which I loved. It’s clear that Stewart’s isn’t just about fast food; they’re about good food and good vibes. Perfect for families, groups of friends, or anyone craving a quality meal without breaking the bank. I can’t wait to go back! Highly recommend!“

“As a truck driver passing through New Jersey I came across Freddy’s off of US 1 and I had to do a review! The food was made fresh and it was delicious! I will be returning whenever I am passing through! I especially want to acknowledge the staff that was preparing and serving the food! Thank you so much for an impeccable experience! You all rocked!!!!!“

“The staff is nothing but the best... super friendly and very accommodating. We have always been treated like family every time. The food is great... good variety on the menu and quite tasty. Had numerous party's and always received the most welcoming, caring and supurb experiences!!! Great spot!!! Highly recommend!!!“
