50 Best Fast Food Restaurants near South Orange

“The food was awesome. I wanted to try the fat Amy but, didn't.“

“The sandwiches were good, as always; but, when you order online with specific instructions and they are not followed to the letter, then it’s not good. If you order wheat bread and you get white bread, that’s not cool; and then you order your bacon on the side of another sandwich, and you don’t get any bacon at all, that’s not cool!
Will I stop eating Jersey Mike’s Subs, Naah. The family members whose sandwiches arrived incorrect, well, yeah, can’t really speak for them.“

“We got the ShackBurger and the Chicken Shack, and both were really good and delicious. The burgers were flavorful, and satisfying, with the classic Shake Shack taste you expect. The chicken sandwich was also crispy and juicy, and the flavors came together really well. Overall, both were solid choices, and we really enjoyed our meal here.“

“I’ve been coming here since they first opened. They have the best chicken and salmon I’ve ever had. The chicken is always very juicy and everything is fresh. The mixed vegetables are my favorite. every time I come they are extremely nice and welcoming 10 out of 10 !“

“I was introduced to this place about 6 years ago and I continue to still go to this place whenever I am craving a good gyro! I have moved and still continue to only go here and buy gyros! I ate there recently with my best friend (something I never do is eat there) so when I ate there the staff was very welcoming and friendly and even asked about the service to make sure it was perfect for us! I don’t really like gyros from anywhere else there’s has a special touch! I hope everyone can experience it!“

“Food was delicious with great proportions, not too much not overwhelming. I was skeptical looking at the price of the street corn but it turned into shock when I saw how the corn was presented. It felt like I was eating at a high end expensive restaurant while still serving a pretty big portion.“

“I had a great experience at Pizza Hut thanks to Kero. From the moment I walked in, he greeted me with a friendly attitude and made me feel genuinely welcome. While taking my order, he took the time to explain the current deals and promotions, making sure I got the best value for my money. He also suggested some better options based on what I was ordering, which helped me make a better choice and save a little extra. His knowledge of the menu, professionalism, and willingness to help really stood out. It's not often you receive customer service that feels this personal and attentive. Kero made the whole experience enjoyable, and I appreciate the excellent service he provided. I'll definitely be returning because of the positive impression he made.“

“The birria tacos were delicious! Excellent service.“

“Subway, Is truly the best place to come in and gets a snack or sandwich. I love it and the Service is even better I would definitely recommend coming here and get yourself something to eat come stop by and get yourself something yummy to fill your stomach“

“Our family stopped by for lunch and decided to order the Meat Eater Pizza, with everyone customizing their own pizza to suit their taste. I added grilled chicken, mushrooms, black olives, and extra mozzarella to mine, and it turned out exactly the way I wanted. The pizzas were prepared surprisingly quickly and served piping hot straight from the oven. The ingredients tasted fresh, the crust was perfectly baked, and everyone in our group really enjoyed their meal. It was a great lunch experience, and this has definitely become one of the pizza places we'll be happy to visit again.“

“Freddy's is awesome. Best burgers in NJ.“

“friendly peoples like the food clean restaurant“

“The Livingston CARS restaurant was small, but it was clean and quiet. The staff was very friendly and chatted with us a little bit before we left. We ordered take-out, and everything was well-packaged and clearly labeled so it was easy to sort out the items for our family members. The food was delicious and filling. We will definitely be ordering from here again.“

“I love a good double Italian hotdog and the best place to get one is here! They have the freshest bread and the food just tastes incredible! They are reasonably priced and give you good portions. The only bad thing is that it's a cash only kind of place, so make sure to bring cash. The next time I near this area, I will definitely be back. Highly recommend!“

“Nathaly provided the best service today around 1:30! I didn’t know what toppings to put on and she was patient enough to wait and listen to my needs. It was my first time trying Blaze so I would definitely come back to Nathaly making my pizza!“

“Love this guy ! Owner explained everything about his company process and ideology. Healthy food that tastes great. Food was delicious, I can’t have the hot stuff. The mild was a perfect choice, tasty , spicy, but not overpowering. We need more places like this 🥳🙏 . Best of luck 🤞🏻“

I love to go to this place with my family.“

“I`ve tasted in a couple years ago, and I just can say that is the most delicious sandwich in NJ 😉👌“

If you have the chance to stop by to try it you definitely should I have such a huge craving for this all the time now cause I love the milkshakes and the hamburgers plus the fries are really good!“

“Holy crap the sandwich was good it was bursting with flavor and everything in between. The guy helping me gave me 70 free bags of chips and free cookies, of course. My life has been changed forever. The sandwich was so good, for a second I thought my dad returned.“

“My office has been ordering lunch from here periodically over the past year, and today we placed a larger order for the entire office. Before placing it, I called the store twice to make sure we had enough food and sides for everyone.

Tommy was not only incredibly knowledgeable and helpful, but also one of the friendliest people I've ever dealt with. By the time I arrived to pick up the order, he made me feel like family!

The entire staff was wonderful, the food was delicious, and everything was ready as promised. I can't thank them enough for making our office lunch such a great experience.“

“Thank you for making the BEST cake!! I came in a few hours before graduation and asked to decorate the cake on each side. The woman who decorated the cake did an amazing job!“

“Driving back from a concert, Taco Bell came through at 1 a.m. The staff was super friendly and welcoming, which made the stop even better.

I’m usually not the biggest Taco Bell fan, but this location exceeded my expectations. The taco shells were crispy, the cheese and lettuce tasted fresh, and even the water was surprisingly crisp. My picky girlfriend even finished it all, and she normally doesn’t like store-brand purified water.

Definitely one of the better Taco Bell experiences I’ve had!“

“As a first time visitor I found it to be a relief to get a majority of my favorite cuisines in one place.

Service at this location was a kiosk ordering process, which honestly works given the sheer amount of options.

I was worried it would be questionable given that I had American, Asian, and Spanish food, but everything came out very hot and extremely delicious. Their food was more flavorful than some of the higher end restaurants I’ve frequented in the area, which says a lot.

As a bonus, I did NOT have any weird aftertaste or finger swelling (usually when restaurants use too much salt making their dishes).

If I had to do a game night or had people with different dietary wants/needs eating with me, this would be my first stop since everything is readily available.

What a Wonder this place is indeed.“

“The hot dog & hot sausage combo with the works is the best!“

“Clean place, near evethong“

“I discovered Mashed about a month ago, and it has quickly become one of my favorite places! Everything I’ve tried has been absolutely delicious, and I’ve loved every single meal so far.

The staff is super friendly and always makes you feel so welcome. A few days ago, I stopped by for some food while they were taking photos and videos for social media. When they finished, they surprised me by giving me both of the milkshakes they had just photographed. It was such a kind and unexpected gesture!

Amazing food, outstanding customer service, and a great experience every time. I highly recommend this place! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“I ordered via UberEats the food was great. I loved it I’ll be ordering again.“

“Fast service food is amazing“

“I ordered the fish (catfish) and wing combo w/seasoned rice. They did not disappoint. Service from the gate was polite and inviting and the establishment was clean. The fish was VERY seasoned. The chicken was also seasoned well. I tasted the rice first and was tempted to add salt but correctly decided not to b/c, all together, the seasoning from the fish and chicken was more than enough. Fair pricing for the genoursly proportionate meal which came with two slices of bread and a can of soda or bottled water.“

“Delicious menu, centrally located with friendly staff.“

“Great food 🥘 fresh always and generous portions!!“

“I place a pick up order and it says it’ll be ready at 8:30. I show up around 8:30 and tell the person in front that I have a pick up order. She just points to the screen and tells me to order. I tell her I had one for pickup and she shakes her head no and tells me to show her. I show her the confirmation on my phone, and she looks confused and goes to the back. She comes back and tells me to wait about 10 minutes. I already paid so I just decide to wait. It definitely took more than 10 minutes and I was just frustrated because how do you not know there’s a pick up order? It wasn’t even busy so I was just confused. I like to give her the benefit of the doubt cuz she probably honestly didn’t see it. It was just kinda inconvenient. The food was actually really good. I’m not too mad about it, just something to point out about my experience.“

“I can’t say it has amazing food because all I have ever eaten was the fabulous fried chicken sandwich. Great atmosphere, friendly service and an incredible chicken sandwich!“

“It was my first time eating from chick-fil-A. It was unbelievably delicious, the chicken sandwich, waffles fries and salads were so fresh. I will recommend everyone to try it. The staff were so friendly and helpful. I will definitely go there again. Love ... Rose 🌹“

“I had such an amazing experience here! From the moment we walked up, everything was perfect. The food was absolutely delicious, the atmosphere was great, and the service truly made the night special.

A huge shoutout to Raul and Martha—they went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. They were so friendly, attentive, and genuinely made us feel welcome. It’s rare to come across service like that!

I left completely happy with everything and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for great food and even better service!“
