“Today we had the pleasure of dining at Blue 42 Restaurant and Bar, located at 158 Market St, Elmwood Park, NJ, and I must say it was a delightful experience. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The security staff were particularly friendly and helpful, ensuring we felt comfortable and safe throughout our visit.
While our order did take a little longer to arrive than expected, it was truly worth the wait. Each dish we ordered was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The attention to detail in the preparation was evident, and we thoroughly enjoyed every bite. It’s clear that the chefs at Blue 42 take pride in their culinary creations.
We ended up spending a total of $78, including tips, and I felt that the quality of the food and the overall dining experience justified every penny. The combination of great service and delicious meals makes Blue 42 a restaurant I would happily recommend to others.
If you're in the area and looking for a place to enjoy a meal, I highly encourage you to check out Blue 42. You won’t be disappointed!“

“Shrimp Dino!!! The absolute best!!!“

“I had a private event in the Parlor Room and it was fabulous. Food and drinks were spot on and the service was dynamite. There were 21 of us all together and everyone was well cared for by server Lily and the rest of the awesome staff. I really love the unique atmosphere of the place -warm, classy and comfortable all at once. No boring old chain restaurant vibes here. Everyone had a great time. I would definitely host future events here.“

“You will not be disappointed great food great people good time !!“

“food is decent
service a bit slow bc the bartender is busy at the bar so tables in dining room fall to a lower priority. makes sense though because they're not that busy.

it doesn't have the dive bar vibe it had before...“

“Historical spot. The woman in the B&W photo on the right is my Aunt.“

“Nothing but amazing 😻 I told so many new folks about this and they absolutely loved it they have been there 4/5 times already food is and was fantastic“

“Good food and very friendly“

“First time ordering take out. I’m picky about my fries. I like fresh cut natural type fries and that’s what they have. Ordered a Reuben and they made it the correct way, not like a lot of places who make that open face slop. My sister ordered the meatloaf dinner and she liked it a lot as well.“

“Want to have a good food, drinks and vibes with great service. Well look no further, this is the spot right here. One of my favorite go to spot. If you haven't been here yet, you're missing out. Check them out.“

“Great place to go for a night out! The food is delicious! The atmosphere is fun and welcoming! The bands are great! The owners are great people! Would definitely recommend to anyone! We will be back! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“The food was great for the most part. Nice selection, although the fried chicken in my salad was quite dry. Apps were out quick and the wings were delicious! The chicken and waffles were delicious, half of our party ordered them! It was quite empty when we were there. I'd go back for sure!“

“We've been Wayne residents for three decades and somehow missed this culinary treasure! The warm welcome and attentive service set the tone for a fantastic meal. The menu is a delightful surprise, catering to all tastes. The Potato Cheese Tots and Bacon Mac and Cheese were crowd-pleasers, while the French Onion Soup, Pork Scallopini Marsala, Filet Mignon, Filet of Sole Capricciosa, and Chicken Toscana were simply delicious. A must-visit for anyone in Wayne!“

“Great food. Great fun . b established local restaurant in Fairlawn“

“Great place and great people.“

“Food was great drinks also service on point“

“A staple in the North of Newark. Definitely a locals spot with a ever growing clientele. this spot looks small in the front but it has a banquet hall, pool table and bar area. If you go by, say "hi" to Cheito (the owner). Tell him "Nani" sent you ;)“

“HEY, this is from all your street neighbors around you. we all love your food and we would appreciate it if you could PLEASE lower the music decimals that are required by law after 10 pm. We understand you have a business to run but the music is WAY too loud to be playing up until 2:30 in the morning. Some nights it seems IMPOSSIBLE to sleep by how loud the music is. Not to mention Subwoofer speakers in that small space is absolutely NOT needed.Please turn it down.“

“Awesome atmosphere, delicious food, awesome service, love trivia night, highly recommended!!!“

“Emerald Corner is your classic neighborhood bar—nothing fancy, just good vibes, solid food, and bartenders who keep things moving. It’s the kind of low-key spot where you can grab a drink, watch a game, and feel like a regular even if it’s your first visit.

The vibe is relaxed and a little old-school, with sports on TV, a jukebox playing in the background, and a small but lively crowd. It’s the perfect place to unwind after work or hang out with friends

The food here is way better than you'd expect from a dive bar. The burger-and-wing combo—juicy, flavorful, and a ton of food for the price. Wings come in a bunch of flavors (the hot buffalo and teriyaki are standouts), and the portions are generous.

The bartenders are friendly, fast, and totally on top of things.

Overall, Emerald Corner nails the dive bar formula: chill atmosphere, great service, and food that hits the spot without killing your wallet.

Try the burger and wings combo—it’s one of the best deals around. You won’t regret!“

“BEST SERVICE IN THE WORLD! And do yourself a favor and order the burgers.“

“It is a place where one can learn to listen to music from different countries, while also entertaining oneself by playing pool billiards. And of course enjoying a variety of liquors. Having the opportunity to deal with women and men and get to know different cultures.“

“I used to go to this spot on Bloomfield Ave a few years back, but one of the owners (Tommy, i seem to remember) would get a little too animated and become obnoxious towards the customers.

I figured I'd give it another chance and drop by to check it out. It was much more chill. The food was standard bar food, and the beers were relatively inexpensive. The girls behind the bar were cute and attentive. They have a DJ on the weekends, and he plays the classics from back in the day.

Overall, it was a much better experience for me, at least.“

“I took my daughter there on 4/8/25 for her birthday omg it was an awesome experience,the food was exceptionally good and it was alot our server was mannerly, helpful, patient and polite.the ambience was good and the other guest was friendly, they even sang my daughter happy birthday. Also the price was really good for the amount of food we received. I'm definitely going back and I would recommend it to everyone“

“A gym buddy recommended this place. Wasn't disappointed. Food came fast, chicken & rice made just right, like my mom's. Now they have a comfy little bar with the coolest peach chairs. And don't forget to say 'hi' to the pretty bartender.

Parking: Sundays are not a problem because they don't check the meters. On Saturdays, u may have to park a few blocks away since most spaces are taken.“

“I've done meal plans for years, I've tried almost every major recognizable meal plan service. Paid nearly $100/week for 4-5 meals everywhere, and quality to price ratio, maybe 7/10. The 5-meal plan from MMG here in Clifton (have ordered for over 6mos), the quality is consistent, the options are fantastic, and the taste is so good, makes you think you're having a cheat meal. Oh and you are paying under $10/meal. Kinda can't be beat. Nowhere is perfect, can't speak to the other negative reviews, but this place has my commit and hard recommendation.“

“Great staff good food and the live entertainment was awsome!“

“Great place to see bands! Been to a few @StompOut and @Poorman shows there and had a blast. As someone who's disabled it's great that they have a table to the side of the stage so someone like me doesn't have to try to see through the crowd to watch the bands.
Staff is friendly and overall, Jimmy's is a solid venue, small enough to be intimate, big enough to accommodate a crowd. I'm a fan.“

“Loveeee this place.. the atmosphere on the weekends is great and the food is sooo good. I crave their chicken nachos all the time, didn’t know nachos could be so good“

“I love to come here with my family, delicious food and good service.“
