50 Best American Restaurants near Roselle Park

“We held a birthday party in the new private space and it was amazing! From the food to the staff and attention to details - we couldn’t be happier!! It also is the perfect place for a surprise party because they had no idea!! Thank you so much for everything; we will be back soon!“

“The food and the service. Always good!“

“Great local spot for drinks and food, with tons of TVs and all the sports, plus a cool little outdoor seating area. Has its own parking lot too. The food was pretty great, we had a small bar pie that had good flavor and crunch, and the disco fries were awesome. They're curly fries, which is great. Good service too, basic tap list but the domestics are $3 all day every day?? Sign me up. Live music on Fridays too, would definitely go back.“

“very good food and pizzaa“

“Good quality A-Tier food. Love how the pizza, calmari and mozzerella sticks have that authentic fresh-made taste instead of the frozen-salty taste. Their sauce is great. Waiters are quick, friendly and responsive.

NJ needs to do away with the credit card fees. They charge you here. Most people use their credit card for cash back rewards and to avoid carrying loose cash in their wallets. It's a shame that people are being punished for paying in a manner that's quicker and more convenient.

Other than that, great restaurant to go to. So glad I chose this place.“

“This place is right next to the Hamptonn Inn in Elizabeth which is pretty convenient. It wasn't super busy and they sit you down quickly with some good drinks. Our server seemed newer at her job, or perhaps not very good but the food was pretty tasty we had no complaints. \n\nIt's not fine dining but unless you want to eat at the food court at Jersey Mills or IHOP, this was the best option we found.“

“Excellent service, super friendly and caring staff...best customer service experience I've had and the fries are fresh cut, great freshly made daily sides and toppings....hot dogs are absolutely amazing as well...would highly recommend!!“

“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.“

“Had a few hours to kill before my flight at EWR. Looked up restaurants near the airport, found this and I’m so glad I did. 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!“

“Everything was perfect from the atmosphere to the excellent service to the delicious food!“

“Calos Restaurant never disappoints! My absolute favorite is the linguine garlic with chicken and broccoli (yes, a custom order and they always get it perfect 🙌). The calamari is hands down the best, and they even offer a gluten-free option! And let’s talk about the drinks… Omg amazing. The mango lemonade and mango tea are my go-to favorites. 🥭✨ The arugula salad is to die for, and if you’re looking for a weekend treat, their brunch menu is pretty great too! Fresh, flavorful, and always made with love. A must-visit spot in North Arlington!“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“Outstanding craft cocktails and delicious food! I only wish I had found them on my first night in Rahway rather than my last. I would have been here every night…“

“Perfect for kids, Plus the food is great!!“

“This is one of the best airport restaurants I've experienced. The prices are reasonable, especially at an airport, The food and drinks are varied and excellent. Service is very good as well. It's best to enjoy in a leisurely easy if you have plenty of time before your flight boards.“

“Nice spot with great vintage atmosphere and good burgers and shakes.“

“Went in for some dinner last week at this location, and Kevin the bartender was really nice! He helped me out with choosing what to eat as he recommended me to get the wonton tacos and I really enjoyed the sauce on them, they were really good! The perfect strawberry margarita he made for me was top tier and if you are looking for someone that is very friendly and very attentive, you should ask if he's around!“

“Amazing Restaurant! Good food, service and cocktails .. Sam the server was very informative about the restaurants daily events ( happy hour, brunch etc.) I will definitely return ..“

“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!“

“Nice Irish theme sports bar“

“My daughter had her engagement party here a few weeks ago. Everyone- and I mean everyone - was wonderful and truly a pleasure to work with. From Mike who sat with her to get it all on the calendar and get the ball rolling to all the individuals who were preparing the room when we arrived to start getting all the decorations up and all. Tara supervised all the servers and made sure they were on top of everything - and they were. Shout out to server Madison (sweet girl). And, the food was *absolutely* delicious!
Thank you Mike, Laurie, Cindy and Josephine. All of you made her party a success. You were all a pleasure to deal with and she was very happy with how it all went. She sends you many thanks!
Anyone thinking of hosting a party should definitely consider The Historic Old Bermuda Inn. You'll be happy you did.“

“is becoming a favorite of mine.“

“Went for a dinner with a family and everything was great. The place is big with outdoor seating, kids friendly. Attentive service, and the food was so good! Fresh, juicy, rich flavors. And the drinks - mocktail, cocktails and beer - so many options and everything was amazing. Highly recommend“

“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!“

“It was our first time dinning at Kona grill and we loved it. We were treated like valuable guests and our food was brought quick. Everything was delicious. I highly recommend the flight margarita, it was amazing and perfect amount of alcohol. We loved it.“

“I have never been an Applebees person but I went there with my granddaughter and found that the food menu is better than it used to be. I had the shrimp and sausage with penne pasta. SO GOOD…
The drinks are still a bit “weak” but they were good tasting. The service was good too considering that our waiter had a whole section to work by himself.
Overall, I enjoyed the food, atmosphere and service. I will be returning again.“

“Love the place. Just had a few beers but great and friendly staff“

“Awesome. Been here three times. Everything I have had has been amazing!“

“I eat their tasty hamburgers all the time. Friendly people. Very clean. Close to where I live. Very convenient location for me.“

“Had a fabulous time at this IHOP location, served very quickly and had the best customer service from a worker by the name of Cliff. He effortlessly made us, the guests, feel welcomed as if we’d entered a humble abode. I commend IHOP for having such a great workforce!“

“Review the menus. You are in for a treat. I will share with you both the dinner and today, a delicious luncheon experience. Chef Eddie is to be praised for professional cooking talents. Delicious!
The warm and helpful approach of the entire staff by phone and in person is refreshing. Old Staten Island is still with us. Thank you, Chef Eddie Canlon and staff. Loretta DePalo“

“Westayed at the Holiday Inn before our cruise and liked the convenience of an on-site bar/restaurant. We were greeted by the friendly hostess. The restaurant had great modern vibe with good music & decor. The service was on point and our food & drinks were really good! Portions were generous & prices were reasonable especially for an airport near New York. We ordered the calamari to share which was my husband's favorite. Then he ordered the Nashville chicken sandwich and I ordered the Mediterranean salad added falafel & house made blue cheese dressing & they also brought the vinaigrette which I am glad they did as it really made the dish. We enjoyed all of it! Would highly recommend this place!“

“I came here with my family and loved it! The food is sooo good and the portions are great! I had to take it home! The owner is also so nice. Definitely coming back again. My mom who doesn’t like outside food at all lovesss the owners food! Definitely coming back!!✨✨✨“

“Cute local spot to visit! Needless to say the Highlight of their menu was the dessert! Some baked goodies and options to choose from, went with the pumpkin roll and it was delicious and very tasty not too sweet so you can tell it’s homemade! The panini sandwiches were great had the pesto & smoky chicken both were great! Fries were a bit too greasy for my liking. Also, the Tex salad was just ok so could skip on it next time but the place overall is worth the try! You can’t go there in a hurry as they take a bit of time to prep the food so patient is a must! Staff is super friendly and helpful.“

“This was the first time we had just an average experience. I was taking a friend out to celebrate her birthday because we always love the excellent service and food. Yesterday things worked out in the end (through a manager) but several negative things occurred. For one thing, the filet mignon/lobster tail combination was not cooked properly. One order was for “medium” and it was totally rare. Had to get manager because server was busy bartending and waitressing. The manager took the meat back and had it recooked. Also, the lobster tail was extremely tiny. We have had this dish before, and the tail was always small but not tiny small. Ok, so now I am eating by myself while my friend is waiting for her dinner. BTW! It came out very rare again. The manager offered my friend a soup or salad so she could eat something while waiting. The Caesar salad was chosen. The croutons were stale. A new piece of meat was cooked up...finally to perfection. Took three tries! The birthday desserts were delicious and the chicken pesto appetizer was perfect. We do not think the service was up to par since we have always had such friendly servers. Another waitress came out to us because we felt like she was avoiding us. As I said, it worked out because the meals were taken care of, but i hope we do not experience this again. Seasons 52 has been one of my favorite restaurant and of course, I will give it another try!“

“I had such a wonderful time at Applebee's with my family. Our waitress Mikaila was wonderful and sweet. The assistant manager Derek also came by to ask us if everything was well. I love they were both attentive and gave us a great time. Good was well cooked despite the busy hour I came in. Would recommend 10/10“

“Great lunch! Love the building!“

“This was an excellent restaurant. A bit pricey, but I would say the style and grade of food is fair. Plus the portion size are big. The only thing I would say is that the menu online is not as complete as the menu in person. But a great experience and I would go back“

“I had the pleasure of dining at Estime Cafe today, it was an outstanding experience! From the moment we walked in, the customer service was phenomenal, warm, attentive, and truly welcoming. This is the first Haitian restaurant I’ve visited that delivered such impeccable service, and it made all the difference. The atmosphere was inviting, and the food was authentic, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every dish was prepared with care, bringing out the rich, bold flavors of Haitian cuisine. Whether you’re a longtime fan of Haitian food or trying it for the first time, this place is a must-visit. I highly recommend for anyone looking for a fantastic meal and a top-tier dining experience. My husband and I will definitely be returning!“

“Everything is so delicious“

“Delicious food great service“

“Great renovation- sports bar with plenty of TVs to catch all the games.“

“I rented here for one year and I had no issues with my apartment. I felt the price was fair for the fact that it was furnished, with all utilities included, and had a gym that I used often over the year. It is also within walking distance (7-10 minutes) to Newark Penn Station. Parking was not included but I knew this before renting. I paid $250 per month to park in a lot right across the street.

This would be a 5-star review if not for the prolonged process for receiving my security deposit which dragged out over 30 days as others have mentioned. However, Maurice the current manager communicated extremely well and kept following up until it was ultimately returned to me in full.“

“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“

“Cover charge on Saturdays $10 for women and $20 for men. Lovely atmosphere and they really know how to put on a good show! I like how it feels like you’re just partying with your friends yet surrounding by everyone else. $20 for parking.

Valentina was a wonderful bartender! She provided really fast service even though it was packed and was really nice!!!“

“After the very first time I went here, I didn't stop going back. Very friendly, GREAT FOOD! Amazing atmosphere! Even if they're not doing Karaoke, if you and your friends or family would like to, they will hook it up for you to enjoy your time! Definitely ? a MUST TRY! Sincerely, “

“Varon is one of my favorite employees. Yesterday he made me some guacamole he was sooooooooooooooooo patient with me lol. Thank you Varon for being so great to meeeeeeeeeeeee.....“
