The atmosphere needs a bit of improvement to create a more cozy, inviting vibe, but it's still a fabulous local favorite where u can have fun with friends and family.“

“Agricola is another gem in the Harvest Restaurant Group. Having been a guest of the Grabowski family for decades, I can attest to the fact that each and every one of their eateries is synonymous with the highest quality of gastronomy. Each time I try one of their places that I haven’t been to before it’s like being a kid on Christmas Eve. They use the highest quality provisions with which their expert culinary staff prepares taste bud orgasms. What particularly strikes me as regardless of the location that you’re lucky enough to visit everyone on the team is excited to be there and takes ownership. This speaks volumes about this families culture. Hopefully you appreciate and take the opportunity to savor their wide variety of libations. I guarantee you will enjoy yourself. Treat yourself and your family and get to one of their many locations today. God Bless America! Gof Bless Blue and Gold! Remember Everyone Deployed Everyday!“

“Outstanding craft cocktails and delicious food! I only wish I had found them on my first night in Rahway rather than my last. I would have been here every night…“

“excellent food and customer service always“

“Highly recommend! We had our wedding at Galloping Hill Golf Course in the summer of 2025. The day was everything we could have hoped for and everything went so smooth! We worked with Emily throughout the process and she was great to communicate with. Any questions were answered right away. We wanted a venue that had both inside and outdoor options and loved that it had a covered patio for use all night. Ellis was our day of coordinator and both of our bridal attendants made the day run so smooth. Our guests loved cocktail hour and dinner. There was a great amount of food we went with the seafood station, pasta, Brazilian, and Chinese. We also did the breakfast sandwiches to go for the end of the night! The golf course made great photo backgrounds as well. We had the best time and would do it all over again if we could!“

“Celebrated my moms birthday at Tabor Tavern today. The food was amazing & the atmosphere is gorgeous in the fall, but what was spectacular was our server Dianne. There were 7 of us in our party including a 3 year old and she anticipated our needs every step of the meal. We would recommend going here for a date night, family dinner, celebration, holiday party etc.“

“New Providence Bar and Kitchen was the perfect place for my wife and I to celebrate our anniversary. We came for lunch and immediately the staff made us feel very welcome. The menu, from the drinks to the entrees, put a fun spin on familiar dishes—just enough to be unique without deviating too much from traditional favorites. The calamari appetizer with chili peppers and capers was the best I’ve ever had— flavors were amazing. The Parmesan-crusted salmon was also tasty and my wife loved her meal too. A wonderful experience!“

“We have been coming here for years! Love the service, the food and the ambiance ♥️“

“Jack's Surf & Turf in Montclair, NJ, is our absolute favorite spot! This hidden gem in Montclair is a must-visit. Over the years, we've celebrated countless Girls' night-out birthdays here, and it never disappoints. From the moment you arrive until the time you leave, every detail is perfect. Greg, the owner, is incredibly welcoming and attentive; he treats us like family. Keeps our wine glasses full, and ensures we feel valued while also attending to other valued guests. The vibe is truly inviting, fabulous, super amazing & memorable! The menu offers a wonderful, wide variety of fresh and expertly cooked seafood, seafood boils, grilled steaks, salads, soups, OMG lobster mac & cheese, burgers, tacos, and scrumptious desserts! Everything is delicious, and the prices are more than reasonable, outstanding value! Highly recommend making a reservation, especially on weekends. You can BYOB; however, their wine selection is impressive as well. Generous portions, secure parking, and impeccably clean restrooms. Servers are always friendly and accommodating, happily fulfilling special requests. Nice music and occasional live entertainment enhance the experience. The Millburn, NJ, location is equally fantastic! We always start with our favorite Arugula salad - generous portions. House salad, also incredible! We adore Garlic Old Bay Shrimp appetizers, fried calamari, crab cakes, BUTTERY lobster rolls, OMG!. For our entrées, we couldn't resist going all in! Seafood Linguine in Garlic Sauce, steamed clams, mussels, grilled salmon, and lobster tails with crabmeat stuffing (seasonal). If you don't see something on the menu that piques your interest, just ask your server if they can prepare it for you. What impresses me most is Greg's attention to detail, passion, and creativity in delivering exceptional, high-quality food, ensuring each guest feels welcome and appreciated. I promise you won’t be disappointed, spotlessly clean, superior food, and exceptionally friendly customer-centric service! We've been to Jack's many times, and we'll keep coming back! Carla Wright“

“I had the pleasure of dining at Estime Cafe today, it was an outstanding experience! From the moment we walked in, the customer service was phenomenal, warm, attentive, and truly welcoming. This is the first Haitian restaurant I’ve visited that delivered such impeccable service, and it made all the difference. The atmosphere was inviting, and the food was authentic, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every dish was prepared with care, bringing out the rich, bold flavors of Haitian cuisine. Whether you’re a longtime fan of Haitian food or trying it for the first time, this place is a must-visit. I highly recommend for anyone looking for a fantastic meal and a top-tier dining experience. My husband and I will definitely be returning!“

The presentation is impeccable, and the service unmatched! A truly family owned and run restaurant. Their passion and dedication to their craft really shines through. Not just amazing restaurateurs, but great people!“

“Nice Irish theme sports bar“

“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.“

“I held a celebration of life in the private dining room. In addition to the food being plentiful and delicious the wait staff were all excellent. I would recommend the Cloverleaf for any special occasion function as well as regular dining. They provided the best venue possible“

“I performed there for my first time tonight and the place was very cool. The patrons were a nice mix, and very responsive to my songs selection. John Lepre LIVE #supportlivemusicvenues“

“The service is great and so was the food. Our server Dania was very polite and checked on us while we ate to make sure that we had all that we needed. This is IHOP is my mother's favorite place to have breakfast at.“

“I wanted to take a moment to recognize our waitress Bea for the outstanding service she provided. She was friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming from the moment we sat down. She anticipated our needs, made excellent recommendations, and handled everything with professionalism and a positive attitude. Bea’s attention to detail and warm personality made our dining experience truly enjoyable. It’s clear she takes pride in her work, and her exceptional customer service deserves to be recognized and appreciated. The manager Alanah came by as well to make sure everything tasted good and asked about our day. Great place to eat and chill at.“

“Awesome. Been here three times. Everything I have had has been amazing!“

“I’ve been to Gigi’s Cafe two times. Each time I walked satisfies with the food and service. Took the trip from NYC and it was well worth it. Will be going back again and this time with more people so that they can see how wonderful this place is. Parking for customers is the cherry on top.“

“Charming place, beautiful space inside open and airy. Great food made delicious with fresh ingredients. The menu is varied with lots of great options. They have lobster, steak, fish such as chillean sea bass, salmon, fresh rainbow trout. They also have great salads and entrees. Service was nice too. Reasonably priced given the taste, setting and fresh ingredients. Easy to access from route 10. Recommend a visit!“

“She was a friendly, attentive and caring. Would recommend her as a waitress and this IHOP location anytime“

“is becoming a favorite of mine.“

“Excellent food and outstanding staff. Our server was Jen and she couldn’t have been nicer. My nephew, Max Clayton, is performing in White Christmas at the Papermill. We were a group of 10 from NH looking for a place for dinner before the show. Max raved about the food at the Millburn Standard and recommended we go there. The staff was friendly, very accommodating to our large party (we did call for reservations, but they don’t take them) and the food was excellent (get the nachos!) They were just as nice when we came back after the play just to sit and have drinks. I feel like they went out of their way to accommodate us and we are all most appreciative. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
