50 Best American Restaurants near Somerset

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

“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.“

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

“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 went on a Sunday for lunch and had a wonderful experience. Attentive wait staff, delicious food, large portions. Will definitely be back.“

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

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

“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.“

“A good, clean,fun & family friendly restaurant and ice cream shop!“

“Trifecta great food great service great atmosphere“

“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.“

“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.“

“Was here for a soccer tournament and stumbled in from a quick search. Definitely get the wings! The food was overall great and exceeded our expectations. Drafts were cold and good as well. We came on a Tuesday evening so not busy but the bartender was also very friendly and attentive. Would definitely recommend“

“Excellent food and service. Our staff holiday luncheon has been held there for years. The staff gets a choice - and their choice every years is to continue to go there!“

“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“

“Very clean restaurant, Food Delicious, Waitress Lee courteous, polite, so nice a pleasure to talk to. Will definetely go back.“

“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 😍😍“

“Our first time here. We had a wonderful dining experience. Food and desserts were AMAZING! Our server, Kelsey was awesome! I HIGHLY recommend! Prices are reasonable and, you get your money's worth! Can't wait to come back and try different dishes!“

“Excellent service and fabulous food with an outstanding Menu.The Bolognese had me feeling like I was in Italy.“

“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.“

“Loved the place overall.amazing menu .“

“🍦 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! 😊“

“On a Tuesday evening, it was quiet--giving us time and space to talk with our friends, which was our goal. On Tuesday, there is also a special deal on appetizers: buy one, get one. We enjoyed our food. We looked over the check, which was just fine, as expected, but when we handed over our credit card, whoever ran the card put a different total on the charge, which we noticed as soon as the card was returned. They fixed it, but it should not have happened. Basically, a good place for appetizers, burgers, pizzas, and simple entrees. We will go back.“

“This is the best place, OMG just left and had the best meal there. Will definitely go back again!! Food is fresh and healthy!!! Give it a try you won’t be disappointed..“

“Excellent food great service never disappoints highly recommend“

“Excellent restaurant! The staff were great, terrific atmosphere, the food was outstanding and they made my wifes birthday really special.“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“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“

“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.“

“Place was great. We came from the rual Chicagoland area. Totally worth the trip. Got the aggressive smash burger. And all the other options looked great. My wife got a reese's shake and it was soooo smooth and thick. We loved it all. Service was awesome, very friendly. If we're ever put this way again you can put your money on it, we will be back. Hopefully they decide to branch out to the rest of the country.“

“Absolutely loved my experience! The food was delicious everything came out fresh, hot, and surprisingly quick. You can really tell there’s care put into the food.

The owner was also amazing! So personable, welcoming, and genuinely provided great customer service. That kind of hospitality makes such a difference.

I definitely enjoyed my experience and can’t wait to come back! Highly recommend giving this place a try! ❤🍽“

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

“Got the spicy chicken sandwich and fries and both were really good. The sandwich was crispy and flavorful, and the fries were fresh.. Everything came out fast and the staff were very polite and welcoming. I'll definitely order from here again.“

“Great healthy food! Highly recommend to anyone“

“Haven't set foot inside Docks since 2004 for no other reason than it's a little out of the way from home and I'm not much of a drinker. I've been working in the area again for about a year and wanted to find a local spot to go with some coworkers and figured since it was close, why not try Docks. I happened across a picture of one of their burgers and had to try one since having my gallbladder removed and being able to once again enjoy the occasional bacon cheeseburger. Stopped there tonight with a coworker, got the Houston Burger and let me tell you... it was incredible. Burger was well seasoned and juicy (even though I always order well done) and the bacon was top quality. The prices were fantastic and my coworker said they had one of the best Guinness draughts he's had in a long time. Definitely see it turning into a to-do after work more often.“

“We had a 50th wedding anniversary dinner at Metuchen Inn and it was perfect. The staff there is amazing. Everyone was so accommodating and they went above and beyond to make it a great evening. Anyone who is looking to host an event should consider Metuchen Inn!“

“With the bar as large as your is, the bartender, Anthony Kovach keeps constant vision on drink levels and show a very high level of customer service.. When in a bar and the bartender is good, I ask them for their name and yell them I appreciate the service.“

“What a wonderful place to dine. Everything tasted incredibly fresh and full of flavor. The team was welcoming, attentive, and made us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. The restaurant was spotless and well kept, which made the experience even more enjoyable.“

“Very good place been eating there Since I was a Toddler! Fresh burgers and some Hardworking guys in there! They always have a Job and are on the Job !! The type of guys that don't ask for anything except respect and pay your bill !! Milkshakes good ! Shrimp good !! Breakfast good !“

“While not exclusively vegan I'm still going to give them 5 stars because their vegan menu alone is larger than many vegan only establishments. It's not fine dining, you're not going to find tons of fresh veggies or smoothies or raw vegan dishes BUT for vegan fast food it's our local go-to place.“

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