An odd place. The guy who seated us kept us waiting for a table ... so that he could talk to us for a few beats longer than he needed to. The food was textbook meh. The boneless chicken wings for an appetizer were like rocks. The burger was tasteless and there was a lame handful of tiny fries that tried to fill up the space on the plate. Way, way overpriced. Won't be returning.

We celebrated birthdays with our family and had a terrific time. The cocktails, food and attention made for a memorable night.

I was in town for a business trip and by chance tried Social. When I first entered it was very quiet and not many people. However, we were greeted and seated at a nice table.Immediately given direction of the menu and ordered drinks, which were fabulous and presented beautifully!The menu items are a mixture of very interesting items. I was incredible surprise and the freshness of the salads and main course!Great option for a quite meal with impeccable service.

We chose Social on a whim while visiting clients in NJ and we’re so impressed! The food was AMAZING, the martinis are created to perfection and the service 5 star. This will be our monthly go-to when we’re in NJ.Seriously great place!!

Attended a professional meeting there, a fixed menu was offered to us. We had a salad, pasta with vodka sauce and a choice of chicken, Salmon and short ribs. I had the short ribs and it was outstanding and a desert was offered. Excellent service and ample parking.

Hello again, it's me Lorraine. I wanted to add something very very important that management should look into! when I entered the social hub this past Sat. it was wall to wall people. and I thought about this later but I feel that it's very important to mention! I wondered what was the capacity of the building? And is the number of people exceeding the capacity? and if there was GOD forbid a fire? people would get trampled on and I feel a good many people Would not be able to get out? that was my first thought as I entered and it was wall to wall people. when I saw that great many people all packed it. I Wondered how many people should be in the restaurant? and are there to many people here? I never entered a restaurant that jam packed before and I have been at many restaurant's. so I feel that's worth looking into why your restaurant was so packed? I feel it was over capacity? And I made reservation s on Wed. and it was so packed the only table the woman could offer us was a high table near the kitchen. I am handicap. I have a bad hip and walk with a cane. and that's the only table they can offer me? I told the woman that I could not get up that high on a table. so we were finally offered a table with kids running back and forth my friend's back. and it was so extremely loud that i had to shout and the waiters and my friend to also be heard! I was very disappointed with how the restaurant was over all run! thank you. Lorraine D. I can't ever eat at your restaurant again, because of my sensitive stomach.
The food was delicious and the atmosphere is really nice. It was a tad pricey in my opinion but we were very satisfied. I got the pappardelle and it was good. Nice portion size and the cream sauce wasn't over the top at all. You can't even see it but the flavor was there. Really liked it. My wife got the mushroom flatbread and really liked it as well. We'll definitely go back.

I would definitely not recommend this restaurant. I've been to many restaurants in the area comparably priced; the food and service here are not even at the level of the local diners, especially for the price. The atmosphere was nice enough but I had quite a few issues. We waited 30 minutes past our reservation, and the waiter skipped us for another party who came in after us. The food was very bland and overcook. The waiter walked away before we could put in an app order while we were still speaking to him and checked on tables next to us multiple times but did not with us. I also noticed we did not get bread when others did and only some tables had cloths but these are very minimal issues comparitively. Additionally, they cut the menu in half compared to their website. The bathroom was also very dirty. I don't like to leave negative reviews whatsoever but this was a very disappointing experience. Its a shame because I've been wanting to come for a few years now but we won't be coming back. There are many restaurants in the areas that are amazing quality for the same price.

Went for Valentine's Day. I completely understood when I made the reservation that it would be busy like every other restaurant but I never would have thought I would have to wait over a hour and 20 minutes just for the entrees. The worst part is that NOBODY came over to tell us that the kitchen is backed up or anything like that BUT some random man (not sure what his role was there because he was serving food and also going to other tables listening to their issues) came over and said to us "I know your food took a lot of time to come out" and then just walked away. Then the man who sat us and looked at us several times while we were waiting for our food came over and said Bon Appetit and walked away. Didn't even offer to take our app or a drink off the bill like most places would do. The food tasted okay but definitely not for the prices. Definitely won't be going back here

Went here for the first time over the weekend. The ambiance is causal and not pretentious. The food was ok. Boring menu. The service was a little slow because there was one server and I think they were training 2 people. Not ideal for a Saturday night. There was an employee standing in the dining room staring at tables with an iPad. It was so creepy. Was he rushing tables? Then he sat at one of the empty tables and ate his dinner. I've never seen that before in a "high end" place. Not worth coming back.

Place did not smell like a food establishment. Bathroom dirty and restaurant itself was not clean. Kitchen looked like it needed a good scrub down. Can't say much about the food because did not eat there

Great food, friendly staff and owners, and a really nice contemporary atmosphere. The fireplace was great and the portions are large. Prices are a bit high but worth it.
