“We hosted a surprise 60th birthday party this past weekend and it couldn’t have been more perfect. From the first call to set it up to the moment we walked out the door, the staff made sure it was such a great experience. The people who work there are so attentive and kind. The managers Bryan and Kelly were so helpful in planning our party and Ivan is a rockstar. He took care of our party of 20 and made sure we had everything we needed. We never had to look for him, he was always checking on us and providing excellent service. He truly is so great at what he does. We had a sit down lunch in their cottage room which was so nicely decorated. the space was perfect. We felt like we were in our own restaurant. It was cozy but spacious and they were so accommodating with how we wanted it set up. We were able to bring balloons and decorations and the staff even helped us set up. They had a curtain up in the doorway so we were able to really surprise the guest of honor. Our lunch was delicious. We chose to do the seated option with 3 shareable apps and we picked a menu of 4 main meals from their party menu. Most of us ordered the shepherds pie and it was some of the best we had ever had. The presentation was cute. It came in a skillet which was served on a board with Irish soda bread. It was so delicious. The show stopper was the shareable Irish egg rolls. We couldn’t stop talking about them. The drinks were really good and the bar staff was really attentive to the party. The kids ordered from the long kids menu and they really enjoyed theirs as well. The pricing was very reasonable and worth every penny. We were able to bring our own cake and they cut it up and served it for us which was so nice. I can’t thank them enough for how special they made this experience. Everyone in our party had such an amazing time. The staff here are incredible. I would absolutely consider them for your next party.“

Glen Rock is where our story started and it always feels like home at the Glen Rock Inn. I cannot recommend the GR Inn enough for your next party!“

“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!“

“Two of us stopped for lunch and shared a turkey blt. It was easily shareable as It was huge and made from fresh turkey. Quite delicious on Multigrain toast along with a generous portion of French fries and a pickle. Although we ate inside, there is a nice covered outdoor dining patio. The interior is as its nane suggests. It's kind of a converted rustic farmhouse feel.“

“Kenny’s Cafe and Grill has delicious and variety of burgers. They sell sandwiches and hot breakfast items also. Customer friendly and in-door setting. I recommend to try their burgers and sandwiches. You will LOVE it!!👍🏻“

“Good Food and service with a view from the 12th floor. Eddy and his staff will take great care of you. I always eat here when I stay at the Crown Plaza“

“I have used catchy for catering several times now and they always manage to exceed expectations. Erin and Helen are always super helpful in selecting great menu options and are so easy to work with. The food and service are consistently beyond excellent. I hosted a baby shower this weekend and received compliment after compliment about all of the dishes and the friendliness and professionalism of the staff. The best part was that they allowed me to truly feel like a guest at my own party.“

“A Hidden Gem in Hawthorne F1rst, a cozy BYOB nestled in Hawthorne, NJ, is a delightful surprise. The unassuming exterior belies the culinary excellence within. Our recent dinner with neighbors was a testament to the restaurant's charm. The star of the show was undoubtedly the pork chop. It was cooked to perfection, juicy and flavorful. The bolognese, rich and hearty, was another standout dish. The pasta was cooked al dente, and the sauce was simply divine. The service was attentive and friendly, adding to the overall pleasant dining experience…including the occasional lovely Maitre D! While the restaurant's ambiance is modest, the quality of the food and the warm hospitality make it a truly special place. If you're seeking a memorable dining experience in Hawthorne, f1rst is a must-try.“

“Great diners always fresh and delicious“

“We very much enjoy F&O. Patrick at the front of the house is a gracious host and gentleman. We typically start with a drink at the bar before sitting to eat. It is a great atmosphere. Food is on point and the sushi is excellent. I think the place should advertise more, especially the bar, because it is an enjoyable space.“

“The staff from the waiters to the Bar tender to security were awesome outstanding work, outstanding customer service. I will continue to go there and dine and have drinks at the bar and I will refer other friends and family to come to the Hilton in Pearl River.“

“Great please and atmosphere“

“The food was amazing and portions were just right. I shared the mixed greens salad and the kitchen was nice enough to split that for us. The greens were fresh, the strawberries were sweet and delicious, the pecan and goat cheese and the dressing make for sure a wonderful salad. My husband had the Day Scallops that were perfectly prepared, my mother and sister each ordered the Pork riblets the meat was perfectly cooked and flew off the bones with ease. I had the Ahi-Tuna which was delicious. The service was very attentive and very professional.“

“Excellent food excellent ambience“
