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

“Food n drinks were delicious, very good music with a fun , energetic and laid back atmosphere“

“I came here with my husband. Drinks were great. He ordered a Caesar salad and I ordered their Hot Nashville Chicken sandwich. My husband laughed because I had no idea that Nashville hot meant HOLY HOT lol. But I was not disappointed. This was the juicy, best chicken sandwich I'd had anywhere that I can recall in my 32 years.. And I worked in food service for 13 years. The service was also phenomenal. There was a rowdy bunch of younger ones at the bar that eventually got asked to leave. But she kindly let us know that we were welcome to move our table if we so desired. We are definitely coming back again.“

“Our first time there but won't be our last. The entrees were excellent. Husband had steak fajitas and said the meat was very tender. I took a taste and it was delicious. I had the pork chop with jasmin rice and it too was delicious.
My only small complaint is that there is no way of knowing this place exists. It is inside the DoubleTree hotel but there are no signs at all. If it wasn't for using Google to find a place to eat, we wouldn't have found it.
Please consider putting up some signs outside. It's got great food, which is hard to find.“

“Just walked today after being seated we waited about 10 minutes nobody ever came over to take our order say they be with us in few or anything there were at least 5 or 6 server standing around doing nothing and no one seem to care we walked out would never go back this was second bad experience with them.“

“Great service and the food and drinks were delicious 💕“

“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 food, great atmosphere. Family owned and they make you feel like family. I was in town and stopped by because it was my dad’s favorite place to eat and do car shows before he passed. Tania and Paul came and talked with me I felt like we were all family. They knew so much about him. Made my day knowing how loved he was. Thank you.“

“Our meals were very good as well as the drinks. My daughter loved her mini smash burgers for dinner and said it was so tasty. My wedge salad with grilled shrimp was amazing. The salad itself was so good, the toppings were delicious. My husband had the ribeye and he cleaned his plate. Overall, great food, good service. Thank you.“

“Loved the place overall.amazing menu .“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5

Westbrook Bar in Bound Brook is hands down one of the best spots in the area! The atmosphere is laid-back but lively, making it perfect whether you’re grabbing a quick drink after work or spending the evening out with friends. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive — they make you feel like a regular, even on your first visit.

Drinks are strong, well-priced, and there’s always a good selection of beers and cocktails. The music and vibe are on point, Westbrook always delivers a great experience. Highly recommend checking it out!“

“I have been here a total of 3 times in the last month & they have messed up my order every time… either the wrong order completely or missing items… add that to the usual lunch hour wait & yes… they need to improve the customer experience..“

“As a local DJ entertainer, the Landing has become a venue in which we perform quite regularly. The staff is always welcoming, professional, and accommodating and truly understands the catering business and what it takes to throw an exceptional celebration. It's always a pleasure to work alongside and partner with them for our shared client events. The food is excellent and prices are reasonable.“

“I ordered catering for yesterday , stuffed cabbage , kofta, chicken shish and kabab hala honestly it was soooo good , very delicious, all the people were so happy I really highly recommend Taza restaurant 😍😍“

“We came at 6 p.m. ,put our name in and were told we had a 20 min. wait. After 20 min. I went to check and was told then that there were reservations ahead of us that had to be seated. If we had been told this we wouldn't have waited. We found this very rude and unprofessional and we will not be choosing sara janes again.“

“The food here was truly delicious. The two male staff members were exceptionally kind and accommodating, even letting us choose our preferred table. However, I couldn’t really tell the difference between the lemon juice I ordered and w iced water, which was a bit disappointing. Still, this is a beautiful, open, and relaxing place. Definitely worth visiting to experience its unique charm.“

“The food and drinks and atmosphere was great especially drinking the sazerac cocktail it was good“

“Awesome eatery and a great time to visit on a Monday afternoon. They're normally extremely packed and I can see why. Nice, big and spacious space. Their staff are extremely well mannered.

As for their food, it speaks to why they are usually busy. It is so delicious and portioned to the value you pay. Can't wait to try again.“

“Stopped in by accident and discovered a goldmine. Driving home to Connecticut, I exited 287 to take a break from rush hour. Nothing like a Buffalo pizza to calm the nerves. I was greeted by a friendly host. I requested a seat at a high top in the bar area , so I could people watch and glance at the game on one of the many tvs. I had a great server , his name was Todd. He explained the menu and walked me through the various pizza selections. He not only knew the menu , he was excited discussing the food. I ordered a Buffalo Pie, it was unbelievable. I wish I saved room for dessert , because the choices seemed so delicious. Next time I’m going through town I will definitely come back“

“Yesterday, I visited this wonderful place. I first stopped by Kaizr, where Angie, a staff member, recommended it and mentioned that her friend Salma works at Buns. I just had to give it a try as well. Salma was incredibly friendly and recommended the Biscoff shake, which was absolutely delicious, along with the Hot Honey Chicken Fries, which were equally amazing.“

“I called ahead and the hostesses helped me get my elderly Mom seated with zero wait. That meant a lot. The waiter was very attentive and the menu is second to none. I really appreciated the entire experience.“

“They make good burgers and fries. If you like fish, they have some varieties here too.“

“This was my first ever time at a Stewart’s Restaurant, and I can undoubtedly say that I was NOT disappointed. There are so many food items to choose from and they even offer a vegan menu. At this location specifically, the staff was very welcoming and were quick to check in on us when we needed something. I loved the root beer float and the chili hot dog, and I would definitely come here again soon.“

“Amazing service been going there for as long as I can remember“

“Best seafood soup .so far I've ever tasted“

“Always an amazing experience. I live in JC and I don’t mind driving 38minutes down to NB just so that I can be here. Keep up the good work.👍“

“Coming here for years. Some food items have gone down in quality, namely the pork chop and mac and cheese. Pork chop used to be really cooked to perfection and moist, however lately it has been dried out and overcooked. Mac and cheese lost the amount of cheese it usually has on it, and noodles were undercooked the previous two times. Must have changed the cooks in kitchen, who knows.“

“Thanksgiving to remember!!! My family of three spent the holiday dining on the buffet feast provided. Turket, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, BBQ ribs, chicken , fish, pasta were rivaled by the cast array of mouth watering deserts and great service.“

“We’ve dj’ed here countless times and also played plenty of golf there. I love the staff and venue. Chris and his crew really know how to run a great event nice and smooth. I Highly recommend it and the food is also great! Can’t go wrong with choosing Roycebrook.“

“I’ve been to this place since I was a little girl my parents always ordered from here and now I go w my bf when I can I love their California cheese burger w fries never disappoints me ❤️❤️❤️

They are sweet people and always smile and say hi to you I hate all the negativity in the comments but Im going to say this place is the best ever never leave please I’ll always eat from here 🥹“

“Fun Place to grab drinks and a quick bite!“

“Freshly made, huge portions, and delicious!! Cleanest bathroom I have ever seen in a fast food restaurant!! Yummy!!“

“Woody's Cafe has truly become a staple in my daily routine. The shining star of this campus eatery is the daily sandwich selection. Without fail, each sandwich is a mouthwatering delight, and the array of choices is nothing short of impressive. Whether you're in the mood for a classic club sandwich, a veggie-loaded wrap, or something more exotic, Woody's has you covered. To accompany your meal, you'll find a well-rounded selection of beverages that cater to all tastes.While the quality of the food is undeniably outstanding, I've encountered one small hiccup during my visits: the occasional long checkout line. It's a testament to Woody's popularity, but it can be a bit inconvenient during busy hours. However, this minor inconvenience is quickly forgotten when you step into the spacious and impeccably clean eating area. With ample seating and a spotless environment, you can truly savor your meal without distractions.What makes Woody's Cafe shine even brighter is its dedicated and friendly staff. The team always goes the extra mile to ensure your dining experience is nothing short of excellent. From taking your order with a smile to promptly addressing any special requests, they make every visit a pleasure.In addition to its culinary offerings, Woody's has managed to create an inviting and cozy atmosphere that's perfect for a quick bite, a casual study session, or catching up with friends. The cafe's warm ambiance is complemented by tasteful decor and ample natural light, creating an environment that encourages relaxation and focus.In conclusion, Woody's Cafe is not just a place to grab a sandwich; it's an experience. With an extensive menu, friendly staff, and a clean and welcoming space, it's a go-to spot for anyone on campus. While you may occasionally have to contend with a line, the reward of a delicious meal and a comfortable atmosphere is well worth it. I wholeheartedly recommend Woody's Cafe for its delightful food and the overall positive dining experience it offers.“

“It seemed like the restaurant was closed but my friends and I was able to order some drinks at the bar, then we moved to a table for dinner. Our server Dominic was very attentive and helpful. Chicken tasted a little too dry, but all the other food we ordered was amazing; especially brisket! It was so tender and tasty. Two of the desserts we ordered with a cup of cappuccino were phenomenal. We were so full after finishing the bbq combo plate, but sure did finish both of the desserts ? I'm glad this place is open for the public. Will definitely comeback ??‍♀️“

“Grilled chicken sandwich with ketchup, mayo, lettuce, and tomato is my GO-TO. So good, at any time. -- I've been a customer since I can remember, always eat great and provided with great service.
Perfect for late night snacks or a stop to recharge before going home from the bar 🤣“

“We got the Bratwurst at the New Brunswick Oktoberfest. Best I ever had and I've been going to them all over the tristate area for 25 years.“

Fyi...figured it out finally and me and my bff will be back for sure! Server and entrance staff were just so welcoming. ps....Quesadilla burger was perfection! (:“

“The manger Connor was exceptional! Very welcoming, great smile, full of energy, & made the experience one to remember! Checked back @ the table several, yet appropriate times & made sure everything was okay. Me & my wife will be coming back“

“Haven’t been in a while but glad we came back. Huge portions and everything was delicious! Staff was very friendly and it’s a very welcoming atmosphere. And if you like onion rings, this is the place to get them! We will definitely return when we’re in the area!“
