“El peor restaurante en el área el encargado con la peor actitud un patán prepotente abusivo no recomiendo este lugar basura a nadie. we went to this place for dinner with the family. the manager with the worst attitude ever didn't give us the table because we were waiting for 1 more person we told him he was 3 minutes away and with he's terrible attitude said no and after that he got mad because we grab on of the menus and told us to move out the way from the bar. He was so disrespectful. I would never recommend this place to nobody.“

“I recently visited Hibachi Grill & Supreme Buffet last weekend, and it was an amazing experience!

For just $17, the buffet offers incredible value with around 30 different Japanese food options—from appetizers all the way to desserts. There’s truly something for everyone, whether you’re craving sushi, hot dishes, or sweet treats to finish off your meal. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and consistently replenished.

One of the highlights was the live fried rice counter, where you can enjoy freshly prepared, hot, and delicious fried rice made right in front of you along with the amount of protein, fiber and rice or noodles of your choice. It really adds a fun and interactive touch to the dining experience.

The staff were also fantastic—friendly, attentive, and quick to assist, which made the overall visit even more enjoyable.

If you're looking for a budget-friendly buffet with a wide variety of tasty options and great service, this place is absolutely worth it.“

“I've ordered takeout from Hot Space Edison several times, and the food has always been consistently delicious. One of my favorite dishes is the fish with the spicy sauce. The fish is always fresh, tender, and cooked perfectly, and the sauce is packed with flavor with just the right amount of heat. Every bite is satisfying, and you can tell that care goes into preparing the food.

Even as takeout, the food travels well and arrives fresh and flavorful. The portions are generous, and everything I've tried has been well-seasoned and enjoyable. The staff is always friendly and helpful, and my orders have been accurate and ready on time.“

“Amazing food and service ❤️“

“Food was good; Drinks are very good“

“Good food and atmosphere and service always on point and both courteous and prompt ….. make a an awesome Pomegranate Martini 🍸“

“We just finished up my birthday celebration here and it was hands down one of the best I have ever had. The food and service are top notch. The amenities and thoughtfulness they put into this experience puts this place in a league of its own. We did the 4lbs (we are a family of 6) with the Cajun sauce. I recommend getting the garlic noodles, corn, potatoes and sausage. We also go some bread at the end and used it to dip in the sauce. 10/10. Get their versions of caprisuns. They were delish and just fun to drink. Thanks Sandy and crew for a wonderful evening 🥳❤️“

“We ordered the signature sour fish soup with black cod and it was delicious. Small was enough for the 2 of us.The fish is very fresh and we also ordered the crispy chiong ching chicken and it was also very good and has a lot of flavor. Dispite being surrounded in spicy peppers the spice level was good and has a lot of flavor.

The scallion noodles were fine, personally I thought it was a bit over hyped but for 6 bucks we were happy to try it.“

“Great food. Welcoming you from the door and checking on you throughout needs some work. Hostess wasn’t hospitable.“

“We ordered delivery to Union. Our order arrived about 30 min early and was fresh, hot and delicious!! I highly recommend this location and will become a regular customer.“

“Enjoyed our crawfish boil. Good food, friendly staff and clean and spacious location. We will be back.“

“We ordered takeout from B2J Fish Soup, and the experience was fantastic. The soup was incredibly tasty, and the 'mini' size with extra fish was more than enough to feed three people—it’s a great value. I was also pleasantly surprised by the fried milk; I had never tried it before, but the lady was kind enough to give us a sample, and I ended up absolutely loving it. Mild was spicy, keep that in mind. Highly recommended!“

“A Steak Lover's Paradise: Strickland's Steakhouse Our recent holiday dinner at Strickland's Steakhouse was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we stepped into the elegant dining room, we were greeted with warm hospitality and attentive service. Eva, our server, was truly exceptional. Her extensive knowledge of the menu and daily specials made our dining experience even more enjoyable. She was attentive, friendly, and always willing to go the extra mile. The appetizers were a delightful prelude to the main course. Each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The steaks were the highlight of the evening. The Japanese A5 Wagyu was a revelation - tender, juicy, and incredibly flavorful. Every bite was pure indulgence. To top off the meal, we indulged in a variety of delectable desserts and rich coffees. The perfect ending to a perfect evening. Strickland's Steakhouse is a must-visit for any steak lover. The combination of exceptional food, impeccable service, and elegant ambiance makes it a truly memorable dining experience. We highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to returning in the future.“

“Cuzin's Seafood Clam Bar is first class! Not only is the seafood fantastic, but the dry aged steaks and cocktails are excellent as well. Highly recommend“

“Great place to have delicious food at good prices . The waitstaff was sooo friendly“

“Excellent service. What’s the owner name“

“Creative food, friendly staff, always delicious.“

“The environment of the restaurant was amazing! The aroma and taste of the soup was delicious and fulfilling. Definitely would come back again.
Customer service was great. It’s been a while since we visited and they have added several different soup base choices. We went for the basic chicken broth with fish maw, but will definitely try other ones next time.
All the hot pot restaurants in the area are all-you-can-eat, but this one isn’t. However, the quality of the soup stock is way better and the dining environment is quieter.“

“best grill chicken platter and zinger love it fresh chicken always“

“Vegetarians, don't let the name keep you away: this place is a wonderful option. The soup bases are all vegetarian, as they proclaim on the very first line of the menu.

I got the traditional Chinese sauerkraut soup with two kinds of tofu. Let me say up front that very few foods taste genuinely novel to me, and I love all kinds of fermented vegetables. So the second pleasant surprise (after the great menu) was the flavor of this dish. I simply could not place it. Was it some kind of citrus? Lemongrass? No, the server said, it's really just the fermented vegetables doing it. I still don't quite believe it, but it was not a taste I'd ever ever had.

I am very eager to come back here and discover a few more unfamiliar tastes!“

“great food, service, and strong drinks“

“Justo ahora vine, a comer empanadas, y la atención de la nena fue la Mejor, tan amable, 💕💕💕“

“excellent service. great food. having 45th anniversary there.“

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

“My wife and I have been patrons and huge fans of Chez Catherine for nearly 30 years. Last Friday, we happily celebrated our 39th anniversary there with another very fine lunch. It's always a pleasure to be greeted like old friends by owner Stephane Bocket and seated at what we think is the best table in the tastefully decorated, elegant restaurant. We both chose the prix fixe menu. For starters, my wife had the always terrific moules and I a lovely mixed salad. We both chose beef bourguignons for our main course and asked Stephane to suggest wine from the by-the-glass list. His selections of a chablis for my wife and pinot noir for me worked perfectly with the outstanding bourguignons. We finished by sharing a delicious Baba au Rhum, prepared by Stephane at tableside. Dining at Chez Catherine is always a special event to us. Everything about it is first class. If you are unfamiliar with Chez Catherine, it has been one of New Jersey's Top 5 restaurants for nearly 40 years. We recommend it highly and urge lovers of fine dining to not wait but reserve a table NOW. We're sure you'll find it to be as special as we do.“

“Great food, excellent service from Dennis Yusko in coordinating our catered party!“

“Great food. Great service“

“If you're looking for an upscale spot with mouthwatering dishes, look no further than this place. The food is out of this world - especially the steak. Each bite is like a slice of heaven. And the best part? They didn't rush us at all. We were able to savor every last bite without feeling pressured to finish quickly. Overall, a truly fantastic dining experience that I can't wait to repeat, but parking can be a bit tough.“

“Excellent service and good food 🍱“

“Excellent service and the food is AMAZING! We live going there for the Oysters“

“1st and last time coming here. With the price of the buffet you would think they will have more food selections. The food was nasty, cold and dry. The hibachi was closed and the steak they did make and put out was cold, tough and been sitting out for a while. Crabs were cold and small they were stingy with putting everything out in small portions. Didn't have any snow crabs like they advertise. The bubble tea was free so my children didn't know upon leaving we had to pay for it. The rude receptionist ran and chased us down out the door and snatched them out my kids hands. If she wasn't so rude i would of went back to pay for them. I spent a total of $267 including $40 tip for nasty buffet and service. False advertising on social media made me come here. Never again“
