“Frequent customer, but always blown away with the freshness of their summer menu. The shrimply the best tacos, which was originally on a tostada last summer, was just as amazing, but didn’t sit as heavy as a tostada. Love the move to a light tortilla. The Mexi-Avo toast was so filling and the flavors melted together so nicely. Don’t forget the decor inside is so cozy, boho/havana vibe and perfect for a date or girl’s brunch. 10/10“

“Brewed Awakening is the perfect spot for breakfast, brunch, or lunch. The food is consistently delicious, and some of my favorites include the BLT Sandwich (always made to perfection), the omelettes, and their Apple Caramel Butter Latte—a delightful seasonal treat. I first discovered the latte through a social media post a few weeks ago, and now Brewed Awakening has become my go-to spot every Sunday for a relaxing meal. The service is always warm and welcoming. Annie, the owner, often makes an appearance on the floor, either serving or checking in with guests to ensure they’re enjoying their visit. Her kindness and genuine hospitality make the experience even more special. I highly recommend stopping by Brewed Awakening for a delicious meal and a cozy, inviting atmosphere. You won’t be disappointed!“

“I’m so happy I discovered Roosterspin recently and have been back many times. 100% recommend! Love the unique menu! My only ask is to start serving cocktails (they only have wine options).“

“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.“

“I simply LOVE this place. It not only has the best vegan sandwiches and desserts, the hospitality is amazing. Everyone is very friendly and welcoming. The only thing bad is that they are 45 minutes from me. I wish there was one closer to where I live. I would be going more often. I'm hoping one day they will become a franchise. I would definitely want to open a How Delish! ❤️“

“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!“

“We always enjoy our meals at Indian kitchen and Grill. Whether we get take out or dine in, the staff is extremely friendly, the food is fresh and flavorful, the music is calming jazz and the booths are so comfortable. We have many favorite dishes @ we especially love the thickness & taste of the raita. We highly recommend this restaurant, and we also enjoyed it 25 years ago when it was Begum Palace. The owners make us feel like family.“

“TL;DR: As a DoorDash driver, the golden rule is simple: if the smell in the front seat tempts fate for five miles, you have to go back off-duty to eat it. OMGYRO in South Orange earns a rare, uncontested 10 out of 10 Gyros thanks to razor-sharp flavors and elite hospitality from Sade and her crew.
The Dasher Perspective: Surviving the Passenger-Seat Test
Driving DoorDash across Northern New Jersey trains your palate and tests your willpower. Your vehicle becomes a mobile sensory lab, and 90% of takeout smells fine, but easily forgotten.
* The Rule of the Road: If a brown paper bag smells so ridiculously good on a drop-off run that it derails your focus, you are professionally obligated to return off the clock as a paying customer. OMGYRO failed my impulse-control test immediately.
* The Atmosphere & Crew: Stepping inside as a patron is even better than picking up at the counter. Sade and the entire staff run the front with an infectious, high-voltage positive energy that cuts through the daily grind. Sade treats every walk-in like a longtime regular, bringing effortless charm and warmth that completely resets your mood.
* The Counter Culture: The line moves with kinetic precision, but nobody is rushing you out the door. It’s clean, lively, and carries the kind of hospitality that most sit-down dining rooms fail to replicate.
The Food: Structural Integrity Meets Pure Flavor
Street food is an art of physics and flavor balance, and these wraps don't cut corners.
* Carved Meat: Spit-roasted with blistered, caramelized edges while staying tender and juicy throughout. It packs a deep, spiced punch without leaving a puddle of grease in the wrapper.
* The Pita & Fillings: The flatbread is thick, pillowy, and structurally sound enough to survive transport without splitting open. Crisp onions and cool tomatoes provide the crunch, while a bright, punchy tzatziki brings the acid needed to slice right through the savory core.
The Verdict
* Rating: 10 out of 10 Gyros
* The Takeaway: Whether you’re grabbing dinner after a long shift or ordering from your couch, OMGYRO is the real deal. Between the dialed-in spit-roasted meats and the radiant vibe Sade and her team put out daily, this spot is an essential South Orange stop.“

“easily the best pizza in Rahway. Elizabeth Michelino is great too“

“🍦 Great little spot for ice cream! They have outdoor seating with a cute little table where you can sit and enjoy your treats. The prices are very reasonable. We got 3 “kids” size plus a waffle cone for around $15! Each cone had 2 scoops, so the portions were good. They also let you mix and match flavors, which is a nice bonus!

The staff was friendly, the ice cream was flavorful and the place looked clean. Definitely a nice spot to stop by when you’re craving something sweet! 😊“

“The food and ambiance are always on point, and the people are welcoming like family.“

“I’ve been here 6 times in the past year and ordered food multiple times and it’s always amazing. If you’re looking for a place to enjoy Vegan and non Vegan food with friends it’s great and you can top it off with Vegan and non desserts. Jericho has served me multiple times and he’s always so welcoming and nice as well as the daughter of the owner she was the first person to help us. I highly recommend the Vegan stuffed peppers. It’s like walking into someone’s house for dinner definitely recommend. Thank you guys“

“We’ve become “regulars” at this wonderful restaurant, soon after they became kosher. We visit regularly, and get takeout pretty often. The food is great! It’s consistent and just SO tasty. And the staff… Absolutely terrific!!!“

“I went there with my wife this evening and it was a great experience. We had delivery a couple of times, but eating at the restaurant was so much better. We were greeted with a big smile by Demi and she took great care of us. We had the large Meze appetizer and the small Mixed Grill and it was perfect. We had plenty to take home for Super Bowl snacks. We had a nice chat with Demi and she gave us a complimentary dessert of their homemade ice cream. The flavors were baklava and walnut. They were delicious. I highly recommend eating there. Thank you so much Demi for a great experience.“

“We got the combination platter for two. More than enough food. Everything was delicious and the staff was friendly.“
